2KBP01M/1

Overview

The 2KBP01M/1 is a glass-passivated single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It belongs to the KBP series and utilizes the KBPM case style. The component provides an average forward rectified current of 2A per diode and supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ranging from 50V to 1000V, with this specific model rated at 50V. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 60A, a maximum reverse leakage current of 5µA, and a maximum forward voltage of 1.1V. The device is designed for high case dielectric strength and features a maximum junction temperature of 150°C.

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix designation as official documentation typically lists the range 2KBP005M through 2KBP10M. Confirm availability status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors, as specific sub-models may have limited stock or end-of-life notifications. Ensure the voltage rating matches the system requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2A single-phase bridge rectifier is required for PCB mounting. Verify that the 50V reverse voltage rating meets the peak inverse voltage requirements of the AC input. Consider the 60A surge current capability for inrush protection needs. Ensure the operating environment stays within the specified junction temperature limits.

Part Context

This part is part of the Vishay KBP series of glass-passivated single-phase bridge rectifiers. The series covers various voltage ratings from 50V to 1000V. The KBPM case style is designed for high reliability and ease of automated assembly on printed circuit boards. These components are widely used in general-purpose rectification applications.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct replacements within the Vishay KBP series with matching current and voltage ratings. Other manufacturers offering similar glass-passivated bridge rectifiers in the KBPM package should be evaluated for pin compatibility and thermal characteristics.
