GBJ2502-BP

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The GBJ2502-BP is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. It features a peak reverse voltage of 200 V and an average forward rectified current of 25 A. The device utilizes the GBJ surface-mount package with through-hole mounting capabilities. Forward voltage drop is specified at 1.05 V when conducting 12.5 A. Reverse leakage current is limited to 10 µA at the maximum rated voltage. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to 150°C.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Single-phase bridge rectification configuration for AC to DC conversion
• Robust thermal performance supporting high junction temperatures up to 150°C
• Low forward voltage drop characteristics for improved efficiency
• Standard GBJ package design facilitating automated assembly

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• General-purpose power supply circuits
• DC power adapters and chargers
• Battery charging systems

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as the model prefix indicates Micro Commercial Components rather than Diodes Incorporated. Confirm the specific suffix matches the required electrical ratings and packaging type. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts designed for the GBJ form factor. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final product assembly.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 25 A current rating and 200 V blocking voltage are required in a compact GBJ package. Compare forward voltage specifications against alternative manufacturers to ensure thermal management requirements are met. Verify that the through-hole mounting style aligns with the intended PCB assembly process. Consider the operating temperature range to ensure reliability under expected load conditions.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This part belongs to the GBJ series of bridge rectifiers, which are widely used in industrial and consumer electronics. The GBJ2502 variant specifically denotes the 200 V rating within the 25 A current family. These components are standard solutions for medium-power rectification applications requiring reliable performance and standardized footprints.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other GBJ2502 variants from different manufacturers such as Diodes Incorporated or Vishay. Ensure substitute parts maintain identical pinout configurations and mechanical dimensions. Verify that electrical parameters like forward voltage and leakage current meet or exceed original specifications.
