2KBP06M-E4/45

Overview

The Vishay 2KBP06M-E4/45 is a glass-passivated single-phase bridge rectifier in the KBPM case style. It provides a maximum average forward output rectified current of 2 A at an ambient temperature of 55 °C and supports a peak forward surge current of 60 A. The device features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 600 V, with a corresponding maximum RMS voltage of 420 V and DC blocking voltage of 600 V. Electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage drop of 1.1 V per diode at 3.14 A and a maximum DC reverse current of 5 µA at 25 °C. The component operates within a junction and storage temperature range of -55 °C to +165 °C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivation protects the junctions against mechanical stress
• Epoxy casing meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating
• Silver-plated leads ensure solderability per J-STD-002 and JESD22-B102 standards

Applications

• AC-to-DC bridge full wave rectification for switching power supplies
• Rectification circuits in home appliances
• Power supply stages in office equipment
• Telecommunication applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when sourcing this component. The /45 designation indicates delivery in tubes with a base quantity of 30 units. Confirm that the E4 suffix aligns with consumer grade requirements, as specified in the manufacturer documentation. Ensure the procurement matches the exact part number to guarantee correct packaging and material compliance.

Selection Notes

Select this component for general-purpose AC-to-DC conversion where a 600 V reverse voltage rating is required. The 2 A average forward current capability suits low-power applications. Consider the thermal resistance values if mounting on printed circuit boards with limited copper pad areas. Verify that the operating temperature range up to 165 °C meets the environmental demands of the target design.

Part Context

This component belongs to the 2KBP series of glass-passivated single-phase bridge rectifiers manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. The series encompasses multiple voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 1000 V, all sharing the same KBPM case style and 2 A current rating. The 2KBP06M variant specifically addresses designs requiring a 600 V blocking voltage.

Replacement Considerations

Other variants within the 2KBP series offer different voltage ratings but maintain identical current and package specifications. Cross-referencing requires matching the 600 V reverse voltage requirement and the 2 A forward current capacity.
