W06G Bridge Rectifier Single Phase 600V 1.5A Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The W06G is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by onsemi, rated for 600V peak reverse voltage and 1.5A average rectified current. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. The W06G operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and is housed in a 4-Circular WOB through-hole package.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the W06G is determined by electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The primary substitution criteria are:

  • Single-phase bridge rectifier topology
  • 600V peak reverse voltage rating
  • 1.5A average rectified current capacity
  • 1V maximum forward voltage at 1A
  • 5µA maximum reverse leakage current at 600V
  • Through-hole mounting configuration
  • Operating temperature range of -55°C to 150°C

The W06G-E4/51, manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division, meets all electrical specifications and maintains through-hole mounting compatibility. The primary difference is the package designation (WOG versus WOB), which represents a mechanical variant of the same 4-Circular form factor.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The W06G-E4/51 is the direct electrical equivalent for the obsolete W06G. Selection of this substitute is based on:

  • Identical electrical performance across all specified parameters
  • Active product status ensuring ongoing availability
  • ROHS3 compliance, meeting current environmental regulations
  • Through-hole mounting compatibility with existing PCB designs
  • Equivalent REACH and ECCN classifications

The package variant (WOG versus WOB) represents a mechanical form factor difference within the same 4-Circular family. Physical dimensions and lead configurations remain compatible for standard through-hole PCB applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the W06G-E4/51 be used as a direct replacement for the W06G?

A: Yes. The W06G-E4/51 meets all electrical specifications of the W06G, including voltage rating, current capacity, forward voltage, and reverse leakage characteristics. Both components are single-phase bridge rectifiers with identical through-hole mounting.

Q: What is the difference between the WOB and WOG package designations?

A: Both designations refer to 4-Circular through-hole packages within the same product family. The letter suffix indicates a mechanical variant. For standard PCB applications, both packages are compatible with equivalent lead spacing and mounting hole patterns.

Q: Why is the W06G listed as obsolete?

A: The W06G has been discontinued by onsemi. The W06G-E4/51 from Vishay provides equivalent electrical performance and is actively manufactured, making it the appropriate selection for new designs and production continuity.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The W06G-E4/51 carries ROHS3 compliance certification, whereas the W06G does not specify this status. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: What parameters must remain constant when selecting a substitute?

A: The critical parameters for substitution are 600V peak reverse voltage, 1.5A average rectified current, 1V maximum forward voltage at 1A, 5µA maximum reverse leakage at 600V, and through-hole mounting configuration. Any deviation from these specifications requires re-evaluation of circuit compatibility.
