VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:
Welcome to GTV!
Today I'll be showing you Vishay's MB Series Single Phase Bridge Rectifier.
The MB Series is a range of extremely compact, encapsulated single phase bridge rectifiers offering efficient and reliable operation. They are intended for use in general purpose and instrumentation applications. They are universal with 3 way termination, which can be push-on, wrap around or solder.
The Nickel plated terminals are solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208 with a solder temperature of 235-260°C.
Models are available with a maximum DC current output of 25 amps or 35 amps. The maximum peak for one-cycle non-repetitive forward current for the 25 amp models is up to 420 Amps at 8.3 milliseconds when no voltage is reapplied and 350 amps when 100% of the maximum repetitive reverse voltage is applied. The 35 amps model has a maximum peak of 500 amps at 8.3 milliseconds when no voltage is reapplied and 420 amps when the maximum repetitive reverse voltage is applied. The maximum repetitive reverse voltage for both models range from 200 to 1200 volts. Higher power modules are also available with a maximum repetitive reverse voltage from 1400 to 1600 volts.
The operating junction temperature of the bridge rectifier is negative 55 to 150 degrees Celsius.

Does it need capacitor outside connection....

I have requirement to convert 230 volt to 12 volt DC 5 amp supply with 60 watt application. Do you have a suggestion for making a suitable bridge rectifier circuit.

[jerrysmagic]

Good and very good, and extraordinarily good

Blah, blah blah, show how to identify AC leads and DC leads so I can hook it up! No one seems to help with this BASIC info. Thanks for explaining without giving a beginner info to wire it up. Par for all these videos.
