another option would be to buy from aliexpress the ideal bridge module and then add the CRC after that.
Search on aliexpress for Ideal Diode Rectifier Bridge Module Lt4320. I got some very cheap right before the tariff hit for the USA. Maybe you still get a good price delivered to Greece.
Those boards look like a copy of Prasi's layout 🤔
Also, the labelling on the LT4320 does not look legit.

I would rather pay the designer for his effort.. the aliexpress solution was in case @prasi doesnt have them anymore. I was interested in the SMD @prasi version and so far I didnt get any response from the forum. Then I did a google search and run into these at aliexpress.
Indeed they look extremely similar to @prasi design. The LT4320 is in a socket and can be easily replaced.

Word of caution about the parts from aliexpress. i looked more closely at what i got. LT4320 are not new, they seem to be parts desoldered from somewhere, the MOSFET same thing probably desoldered from somewhere. who knows if they work, it will take me a while to test them and see if they are any good.
I was lucky to get the genuine @prasi PCBs and those PCBs are of great quality.

I was looking at the LM74680DRRR (5-60V) and DMHT6016LFJ (quad 60V 10A) for a small setup for 6V/2A supplies.
You should refer to the LT4320 Datasheet and verify if this type of rectification will work for your application.
This does look like a nice alternative to the LT4320 with a wider range of voltage usage.
The WSON12 package is not as easy to solder as MSOP, but can be done by DIY'ers.
I'll be interested in your experimentation...... 👍

Yes, the fets all tend to be smd as well in low mR ranges. Might get a cheap hotplate or hot air gun.
If you're going to layout a pcb for this, slightly extend the pads past the WSON body outline to enable solder touch ups, if needed, with a fine tip iron and flux after the hotplate/hotair method.
