MP506W Bridge Rectifier Single Phase 600V 50A Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MP506W is a single-phase bridge rectifier rated for 600V peak reverse voltage and 50A average rectified current. This component is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of equivalent substitute parts for ongoing procurement and system maintenance. The MP506W operates across a temperature range of -50°C to 150°C and utilizes through-hole mounting in a 4-Square MP-50W package configuration.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MP506W is determined by electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The critical parameters for substitution are:

  • Voltage - Peak Reverse (Max): 600 V
  • Current - Average Rectified (Io): 50 A
  • Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 1.2 V @ 25 A
  • Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 10 µA @ 600 V
  • Operating Temperature Range: -50°C ~ 150°C (TJ)
  • Mounting Type: Through Hole
  • Package / Case: 4-Square, MP-50W

The MP506W-BP meets all electrical specifications and maintains identical mechanical compatibility through the same package configuration. The primary distinction is packaging format and product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MP506W-BP is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the MP506W. Both components share identical electrical specifications and package configuration. The MP506W-BP is currently in active production status, whereas the MP506W is obsolete. Additionally, the MP506W-BP carries ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

Selection of MP506W-BP is appropriate for new designs and replacement applications requiring current product availability and regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MP506W-BP be used as a direct replacement for MP506W?

A: Yes. Both components are manufactured by Micro Commercial Co and share identical electrical ratings (600V peak reverse voltage, 50A average rectified current, 1.2V forward voltage at 25A, and 10µA reverse leakage at 600V). Both utilize the same 4-Square MP-50W through-hole package and operate across the identical temperature range of -50°C to 150°C.

Q: What is the difference between MP506W and MP506W-BP?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. MP506W is obsolete, while MP506W-BP is active production. MP506W-BP is ROHS3 compliant, whereas MP506W is RoHS non-compliant. The packaging format differs (standard versus bulk), but electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting MP506W with MP506W-BP?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. The identical package configuration (4-Square MP-50W), mounting type (through-hole), and electrical specifications ensure direct mechanical and electrical compatibility in existing circuit designs.

Q: Why should MP506W-BP be selected over MP506W?

A: MP506W-BP is the preferred selection due to active production status and ROHS3 regulatory compliance. The obsolete status of MP506W creates procurement risk and supply uncertainty.
