Bridge Rectifier

With the ever-pressing need to improve power supply efficiency, improve surge rating, improve reliability, and reduce size, the DFxS2 family sets a new standard in performance. The new design offers an improved surge rating of 85 A. This is especially important when striving to improve reliability and increase efficiency. High efficiency designs strive to reduce circuit resistance, which, unfortunately can result in increased inrush surge. As such higher surge current ratings can be required to maintain or improve reliability. The design also offers improved efficiency by achieving a 2 A VF of 1.1 V maximum at 25°C. This lower VF also supports cooler and more efficient operation. Finally, the DFxS2 achieves all this in a SDIP surface mount form factor, reducing board space and volumetric requirements vs. competitive devices.
