GBJA802-BP

Overview

The GBJA802-BP is a glass passivated bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It belongs to the GBJA802 series and features an 8 A forward current rating with a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 800 V. The device utilizes a JA-4 through-hole package for PCB mounting. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 150 A at 60 Hz, a maximum RMS voltage of 560 V, and a maximum DC blocking voltage of 800 V. The component operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivation provides long-term stability and protects against mechanical stress.
• High surge current capability supports robust performance during transient events.
• Designed for high reliability in printed circuit board applications.

Applications

• General purpose AC to DC conversion circuits
• Power supply input stages
• Battery charging systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the NRND status before procurement, as this designation indicates the component is not recommended for new designs. Confirm RoHS compliance details via the official datasheet. Ensure the JA-4 package dimensions match the target PCB footprint. Check for specific ordering suffixes if halogen-free requirements are necessary.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an 8 A current rating and 800 V reverse voltage are required for through-hole assembly. Compare thermal dissipation capabilities against the application's ambient temperature constraints. Verify that the 150 A surge rating exceeds the expected inrush currents of the load. Consider alternative series members if different current or voltage ratings are needed.

Part Context

The GBJA802-BP is part of the GBJA series of single-phase bridge rectifiers from MCC. This series offers various current and voltage combinations within the same JA-4 package form factor. The 'BP' suffix typically denotes lead-free and RoHS compliance. It serves as a standard solution for medium-power rectification tasks in industrial and consumer electronics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 8 A, 800 V bridge rectifiers in the JA-4 package such as the GBJ808 from other manufacturers. Ensure pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values match the original design specifications before substitution.
