MBR160G is a single-phase, stud-mount, 16 Amps bridge rectifier, packaged in a UL94V-0 standard molded plastic case. It is designed to be used in AC/DC power supplies, converters and other related applications that require very good heat dissipation characteristics and low reverse leakage.

The MBR160G series is a general-purpose, high-efficiency rectifier which provides low forward voltage drop, high surge current capability and high reliability. It is constructed from various metals and dielectric materials.

The two-terminal version of the MBR160G consists of four small diodes connected in a bridge configuration with two output terminals. It is designed to easily withstand high-current pulses, allowing power pulses to be minimized.

The typical applications of MBR160G include power supplies, DC/AC inverters, DC/DC converters, full-wave rectifiers, voltage-regulator modules, uninterruptible power supplies, and any other application that requires the characteristics of a bridge rectifier.

The MBR160G bridges full-wave rectify input AC voltage to DC voltage. It operates in one of several modes: forward conduction mode, free-wheel mode, and reverse blocking mode.

In forward conduction mode, when the forward voltage exceeds the diode rating, the diode will be turned on (or on) and the bridge will conduct current from anode to cathode. In free-wheel mode, when the voltage is reversed, the current will flow in the opposite direction, turning off both diodes and allowing the inductor current to freewheel through the bridge until the next conduction cycle. In reverse blocking mode, the diodes will act as a barrier, preventing reverse current flow.

The working principle of the MBR160G is based on the electrical characteristics of diodes. By using its two terminals, the bridge rectifier can absorb the AC voltage and convert it to DC voltage by using a set of four diodes.

The rectified current is the sum of the forward current across each diode and the total current flowing through each diode will be equal to the magnitude of the input AC voltage times the instantaneous output current of the rectifier circuit.

The MBR160G is designed for efficient operation and has a low Forward Voltage Drop (Vf), which helps maintain the design\'s power efficiency. It also has a high surge current capability, which allows it to easily handle short transient overloads.

By providing efficient conversion of AC to DC voltage, the MBR160G has become a reliable, cost effective solution for many power supply applications. It is an ideal choice for use in power systems where low input ripple, low load regulation, and high-frequency switching are required.
