The DB4J406K0R rectifier diode array is a full-wave rectifier that meets current or voltage requirements in AC or DC applications, respectively. The DB4J406K0R is a package-optimized device with maximum current ratings of up to 4 A. It offers a general-purpose single-phase bridge rectifier, with double common-anode and common-cathode configurations. Each of the two diodes in the bridge can be used individually as single-phase full-wave rectifiers.

The DB4J406K0R can be used in applications that require protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD). It can also be used in applications where heat dissipation and board space are limited. The DB4J406K0R has a low profile and is extremely compact, delivering 4 A up to 35 Volts.

The DB4J406K0R is a family of bridge rectifiers, which have four terminals and two bilateral diodes in a single package. It is designed specifically for high-frequency applications, such as switch-mode power supplies, lighting and LED driver applications,l as well as other power conversion applications. Additionally, the DB4J406K0R is designed for high-current, low-voltage bridge rectification.

The DB4J406K0R uses surge-working current to determine the maximum operating current. It has double common-anode configuration and double common-cathode configuration. Additionally, it has a reverse blocking voltage, known as the "blocking voltage," which is typically rated between 100 Volts and 200 Volts, depending on the specific device. The diode also has a forward voltage drop of 0.3 V to 0.6 V, which is also dependent on the specific device.

When used in a DC application, the DB4J406K0R can be used to rectify the input voltage into a DC voltage, thereby providing electrical power for the connected load. In AC applications, the bridge rectifier will typically rectify the AC input voltage into a DC output voltage. Additionally, when used in a transformerless power supply, the DB4J406K0R can be used to reduce the ripple content in the output voltage. Finally, the DB4J406K0R can also be used in peak current limiting applications, to reduce the peak inrush current to the connected load.

In summary, the DB4J406K0R rectifier diode array is a device that is designed for full-wave rectification. It has a maximum operating current rating of 4 A, a blocking voltage of up to 200 V, and a forward voltage drop of 0.3 V to 0.6 V. The DB4J406K0R can be used in DC or AC applications, and can also be used in peak current limiting applications.
