Product Overview
The General Instrument 2W02G is a single-phase, full-wave glass-passivated bridge rectifier housed in a compact round WOG through-hole package. Rated for 200V repetitive peak reverse voltage and 2.0A continuous rectified output current, it handles AC-to-DC rectification across power supplies, control circuits, and discrete electronics repair.
Key Features
- 200V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM)
- 2.0A maximum average forward rectified output current (IF(AV))
- 60A peak forward surge current rating (8.3 ms single half sine-wave)
- 1.1V maximum forward voltage drop per diode element at 2.0A
- Glass-passivated junction construction for stable reverse leakage characteristics
- Standard 4-pin round through-hole WOG package with radial wire leads
- Wide operating junction temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C
Applications
- Linear AC-to-DC power supply front-end rectification
- Replacing failed circular bridge rectifiers in vintage audio gear, test gear, and legacy power supplies
- Bench power supply builds and analog synthesizer rail regulation
- DIY maker projects, prototyping circuits, and custom transformer secondary rectification
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pin layout and polarity orientation on the 2W02G?
The component features four radial leads exiting the circular base. The top face is stamped with polarity markers (+ and ~) to indicate the positive DC output pin and the AC input terminals.
What are the continuous current and voltage limits?
The 2W02G delivers up to 2.0A average forward rectified current with a peak reverse voltage rating of 200V, making it suitable for low to medium-voltage power transformation circuits.
Can I buy just the exact count needed for a repair?
Yes. You can order the exact quantity needed for your bench work without having to buy full factory reels or blind surplus assortments. Shipping is an $8 flat rate, orders over $28 ship free, and all orders leave our Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
A classic round-body rectifier that does honest work turning alternating current into steady direct power. Drop it into your board, solder the four leads, and keep your rail voltage right where it belongs.
