GBL01-M3/51

Overview

The GBL01-M3/51 is a single-phase bridge rectifier from Vishay's FRED Pt® series, designed for standard recovery applications. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V and an average forward rectified current rating of 4 A. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 4 A and a non-repetitive peak surge current capability of 100 A. Operating junction temperature ranges from -55°C to 150°C, with a maximum reverse leakage current of 5 µA at 100 V.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes FRED Pt® technology for fast recovery characteristics
• Designed for high reliability in through-hole mounting configurations
• Optimized for low switching losses in power supply circuits

Applications

• AC-DC power supply units
• Battery chargers
• General-purpose rectification in industrial electronics

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix /51 corresponds to the required tape-and-reel packaging configuration when ordering. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free finish requirements against current Vishay General Semiconductor documentation. Ensure the selected variant matches the intended thermal management strategy for the target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a 100 V blocking voltage and 4 A continuous current capacity in a compact through-hole package. Consider the FRED Pt® technology benefits for efficiency if faster switching speeds are needed compared to standard silicon rectifiers. Evaluate thermal dissipation capabilities based on the PCB layout and ambient operating conditions.

Part Context
