Mb6s Pinout Diagram

The MB6S is a commonly used bridge rectifier, typically employed in power conversion circuits to convert AC to DC. Here’s a brief description of its pinout:

The MB6S bridge rectifier effectively converts AC to DC using its four pins, which manage the AC input and output the corresponding DC voltage. This makes it a critical component in power electronics, ensuring smooth and stable DC power output for a variety of devices.

MB6S Circuit Diagram

mb6s is a rectifier bridge chip, its role is to use the diode’s unidirectional conduction characteristics, will be converted to DC power. mb6s chip package form SOP-4 chip package, pin spacing is 2.5mm. package material for the epoxy. As shown in the figure, the left figure is the physical picture, the right figure is the internal structure.

On the surface of the chip, marked with a wavy line of the two pins for the AC voltage input pin, the other two pins for the DC voltage output pin, its internal rectifier circuit is composed of four rectifier diodes, this is the circuit schematic diagram, in order to get a smoother DC output, we generally external to the output side of a filter capacitor. Its working principle is very simple, we assume that the load for a small lamp, then, when the alternating current is in a certain half-cycle, the current path is such as shown in the figure.

When the alternating current is in the other half of the cycle, the current path is then shown in the figure.

The final effect is that the output produces a positive voltage output at each half cycle of the AC voltage. The final result is a smoothed voltage that is optimized by the capacitor.
Compared with the same series MB10S, from the specifications of the two compared to the parameters, we can see that in addition to the reverse withstand voltage is not the same, other than the same, the reverse withstand voltage MB6S is 600 volts, the reverse withstand voltage of the MB10S is 1000 volts. Chip rectifier bridge due to the characteristics of the package volume would have been used in low-power equipment, low-power general voltage requirements do not need to be so high, too high a value of the withstand voltage instead of a waste, and from the point of view of the cost of speaking MB6S is more cost-effective, so the majority of low-power equipment are used MB6S.
