Description

This is a GBU606, a 600V, 6A single-phase glass passivated bridge rectifier. It is designed to convert alternating current (AC) input into direct current (DC) output. Featuring high surge current capability, low forward voltage drop, and high reliability, it is designed for direct printed circuit board (PCB) mounting with a center hole for easy heat-sink attachment.
