Product details
Overview
RABF1510-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 1000 V peak repetitive reverse voltage, 1.5 A average rectified output current, glass passivated surface-mount bridge rectifier in SOPA-4 (Type B) package, featuring 1.3 V max forward voltage at 1.5 A and 5 μA max reverse leakage at 25°C, designed for AC–DC full-wave rectification in LED lighting power supplies and compact adapters.
For engineers reviewing the RABF1510-13 datasheet, RABF1510-13 pinout, RABF1510-13 application, or RABF1510-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include rated blocking voltage (1000 V), thermal resistance (80 °C/W junction-to-ambient), fast recovery time (500 ns), RoHS-compliant lead-free finish, and compatibility with SMT reflow processes per MIL-STD-202.
Technical Context
This device integrates four fast-recovery diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration with glass-passivated junctions to ensure stable operation under transient overvoltage and high-temperature conditions. Its 500 ns reverse recovery time and 17 pF typical capacitance per element support efficient switching in 50/60 Hz and higher-frequency SMPS front-end stages.
The SOPA-4 (Type B) package provides low thermal resistance (25 °C/W junction-to-lead) and enables direct mounting on aluminum substrate PCBs with 1.3 mm² solder pads. It operates across –55°C to +150°C and sustains 50 A non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Withstands peak reverse voltage up to 1000 V without breakdown, enabling use in 700 V RMS line applications. |
| IO (TC = +100°C) | 1.5 A - Continuous average output current rating at 100°C case temperature, suitable for thermally constrained PCB layouts. |
| VFM @ IF = 1.5 A | 1.3 V - Low forward voltage drop minimizes conduction loss and improves efficiency in low-voltage-output power supplies. |
| tRR | 500 ns - Fast reverse recovery reduces switching losses and EMI generation during commutation in high-frequency rectifiers. |
| IR @ 25°C | 5 μA - Ultra-low reverse leakage ensures minimal standby power loss in battery charger and adapter standby modes. |
| RθJA | 80 °C/W - Thermal resistance value measured on aluminum substrate board with 1.3 mm² pad, defining heatsinking requirements. |
| IFSM | 50 A - Surge current capability supports inrush current handling during AC line turn-on without degradation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU10K (ON Semiconductor) | Higher IFSM (100 A), larger GBU package (22.5 × 18.5 mm), slower tRR (2.5 μs), same VRRM/IO. | Requires more PCB area and heatsinking; suited for industrial-grade designs with high surge immunity needs. | Select when surge robustness outweighs size constraints; not drop-in due to footprint and thermal profile mismatch. |
| MB10F (Vishay) | Same SOPA-4 footprint, lower VRRM (1000 V), identical IO/tRR/VF, but higher IR (10 μA @ 25°C) and no Green certification. | Acceptable where RoHS/halogen-free compliance is not mandated; may increase standby power in energy-sensitive designs. | Consider only if cost is primary driver and environmental certifications are waived; verify IR impact on total no-load loss. |
Compared with GBU10K and MB10F, RABF1510-13 uniquely balances ultra-low leakage (5 μA), industry-leading Green compliance, and fast recovery (500 ns) within the smallest SOPA-4 footprint-making it optimal for space- and efficiency-critical consumer power supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for RABF1510-13?
The RABF1510-13 has an operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Its thermal resistance is specified as 80 °C/W junction-to-ambient when mounted on an aluminum substrate PCB with a 1.3 mm² solder pad. Derating is required above +100°C case temperature per the datasheet's forward current derating curve.
Is RABF1510-13 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes. RABF1510-13 features matte tin-plated terminals and is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per MIL-STD-202, Method 208. Its package is rated for peak reflow temperatures up to 260°C, and it complies with J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1, eliminating bake requirements prior to assembly.
How does the 500 ns reverse recovery time affect EMI in power supplies?
The 500 ns tRR reduces reverse recovery charge (Qrr), minimizing high-frequency ringing and dv/dt-induced noise during diode turn-off. This directly lowers conducted EMI in the 150 kHz–30 MHz band, easing compliance with CISPR-32 Class B limits in compact adapters and LED drivers without additional snubbers.
Can RABF1510-13 replace RABF158-13 in existing designs?
Yes-RABF1510-13 is a direct upgrade from RABF158-13 (800 V) with identical package, pinout, forward characteristics (VF, IO), and thermal specs, but extended blocking voltage to 1000 V. No layout or thermal redesign is needed; it improves margin against line surges and brownouts in universal-input applications.
