GBJA2002-BP

Overview

The GBJA2002-BP is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features glass passivated chip junctions and epoxy meeting UL 94 V-0 flammability ratings. The device provides an average rectified forward current of 20 A at a case temperature of 90°C, with a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 200 V. Non-repetitive peak surge current capability reaches 240 A for an 8.3 ms half sine wave. Electrical characteristics include a maximum reverse current of 5 µA at 125°C and a typical forward voltage of 1.0 V at 10 A. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated chip junction construction
• High surge forward current capability
• Epoxy meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating

Applications

• General purpose AC to DC conversion in power supplies
• Battery charging circuits
• DC power supply input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify authenticity through authorized MCC distributors or direct purchase from the manufacturer to avoid counterfeit components. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the ordering suffix. Ensure storage conditions align with specified temperature ranges. Check for recent product change notices regarding packaging or material updates before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 200 V blocking voltage and 20 A continuous current are required. Verify thermal management requirements against the junction-to-case thermal resistance value. Consider the JA-4 package dimensions for PCB layout compatibility. Evaluate surge current demands against the 240 A non-repetitive limit for specific circuit protection needs.

Part Context

This part belongs to the GBJA2000 series, which includes variants ranging from 50 V to 1000 V reverse voltage. All members share identical mechanical outlines and thermal characteristics while differing in voltage ratings. The series utilizes a standardized through-hole mounting configuration suitable for high-current applications requiring robust physical construction.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference other GBJA2002 variants from different manufacturers ensuring matching 20 A current and 200 V voltage ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and physical dimensions before substitution. Confirm equivalent thermal resistance values to maintain safe operating temperatures under similar load conditions.
