GBJ1506-F

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The GBJ1506-F is a single-phase standard recovery bridge rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V and an average rectified output current of 15 A. The forward voltage is rated at a maximum of 1.05 V when tested at 7.5 A, while the reverse leakage current remains within 10 µA at 25°C and 500 µA at 125°C. The device supports a peak forward surge current of 240 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine wave. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and utilizes a GBJ molded plastic package with through-hole mounting.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction ensures high reliability and low reverse leakage current.
• High case dielectric strength provides robust insulation performance.
• Surge overload rating accommodates peak currents up to 240 A.
• UL recognized component listing facilitates compliance in end-product designs.

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• Printed circuit board applications requiring efficient AC-to-DC conversion.
• Power supply circuits operating within standard industrial voltage ranges.
• General-purpose rectification tasks in electronic equipment.

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required voltage and current ratings before purchase. Confirm that the packaging format aligns with assembly requirements. Ensure compliance with RoHS 3 directives if environmental regulations apply to the final product. Cross-reference the manufacturer file number E95060 for UL recognition needs. Validate thermal management strategies against the specified junction-to-case resistance.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component based on the 600 V reverse voltage requirement and 15 A continuous current capacity. Evaluate the thermal environment to ensure the junction temperature remains within the specified limits during operation. Consider the physical dimensions of the GBJ package for PCB layout constraints. Verify that the surge current capability meets potential transient load conditions in the target application.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This part belongs to the GBJ15005 through GBJ1510 series from Diodes Incorporated. The series offers various voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining a consistent 15 A current rating. All variants share the same GBJ package style and mechanical characteristics, allowing for design flexibility across different voltage requirements.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 15 A current, 600 V voltage, and GBJ package type. Verify that alternative components meet the same thermal resistance and surge current specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and mounting torque requirements.
