GBJ2001-F

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The GBJ2001-F is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, featuring glass-passivated silicon junctions. It provides an average forward rectified output current of 20 A at a case temperature of 110°C and supports a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 100 V. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 1.05 V per element at 10 A and handles a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 240 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine wave. Operating temperatures range from -55°C to +150°C junction temperature. It utilizes the GBJ through-hole package with solder pin termination.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Glass passivation provides mechanical strength and protection against moisture damage.
• High surge current capability ensures robustness during transient load conditions.
• Low forward voltage drop minimizes power dissipation and improves system efficiency.

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• AC-DC power supply circuits
• Battery chargers
• General-purpose rectification in industrial equipment

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches project requirements before procurement. Confirm that the manufacturer's datasheet revision aligns with design specifications. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and REACH regulations as stated in the official documentation. Check for any specific packaging constraints or tube quantities required for assembly lines.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 20 A continuous current rating and 100 V blocking voltage are required in a compact through-hole format. Consider the thermal derating curve if operating near the maximum case temperature limit. Evaluate the 240 A surge capacity against potential inrush currents in the target application circuit to ensure adequate safety margins.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This part belongs to the GBJ20005-GBJ2010 series of high-current bridge rectifiers. The series offers various voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining a consistent 20 A current capability and physical footprint. The GBJ2001-F specifically addresses applications requiring 100 V reverse voltage tolerance within this standardized package family.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 20 A current rating, 100 V reverse voltage, and GBJ package dimensions. Verify equivalent forward voltage and surge current specifications to maintain circuit performance integrity.
