GBJ35005

Overview

The GBJ35005 is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by SMC Diode Solutions, designed for general-purpose power supply applications. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 50 V and an average forward rectified current rating of 35 A per leg. The device utilizes standard silicon technology and is housed in a GBJ (4-ESIP) package suitable for through-hole mounting. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 12.5 A and a maximum non-repetitive surge current capability of 600 A. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C.

Feature Summary

• High current capacity with 35 A average rectified current rating
• Robust surge handling with 600 A non-repetitive peak forward surge current
• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• Compact GBJ surface-mount compatible leaded package

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer part number against official SMC Diode Solutions documentation to ensure authenticity. Confirm that the specified 50 V reverse voltage and 35 A current ratings match the design requirements. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the end product. Ensure the GBJ package footprint aligns with the PCB layout specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 50 V blocking voltage and 35 A continuous current are required in a compact form factor. Compare the forward voltage drop at expected load currents against alternative packages like KBPC or GBU series. Consider the thermal resistance of the GBJ package for heat dissipation needs. Verify that the 600 A surge rating exceeds the inrush current of the target application.

Part Context

The GBJ35005 belongs to the GBJ series of single-phase bridge rectifiers from SMC Diode Solutions. This series offers high current density in a small footprint compared to traditional axial or DO-201AD packages. It shares the same mechanical outline as other GBJ variants but differs in voltage and current ratings. The GBJ series is commonly used where space constraints limit the use of larger bridge rectifiers.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 50 V, 35 A, GBJ package specification. Equivalent parts from other manufacturers such as Littelfuse or Vishay may be considered if pinout and thermal characteristics are identical. Verify that substitute components meet the same surge current and leakage current standards.
