GBL08-E3/45

Overview

The GBL08-E3/45 is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features an 800 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage and supports an average forward rectified current of 3 A. The device utilizes standard silicon technology with a low forward voltage drop of 1 V at 4 A and minimal reverse leakage current of 5 µA at 800 V. Designed for through-hole mounting, it is housed in the compact GBL (4-SIP) package. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and complies with RoHS 3 standards.

Feature Summary

• High-voltage capability with 800 V peak reverse voltage rating
• Compact GBL surface-mount compatible through-hole package design
• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• Extended operating temperature range up to 150°C

Applications

• General-purpose AC to DC power supply conversion
• Battery charging circuits
• DC-DC converter input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity against manufacturer specifications before integration. Confirm that the ordering suffix does not alter electrical characteristics or pinout configuration. Ensure storage conditions maintain moisture sensitivity level integrity. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to confirm compliance with current environmental directives.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an 800 V blocking voltage and 3 A continuous current are required in a small footprint. The GBL package offers thermal performance suitable for moderate power applications. Consider alternative packages if higher current ratings or different mounting styles are necessary for the specific PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the GBL series of single-phase bridge rectifiers from Vishay. The series provides various voltage and current combinations within the same mechanical outline. The E3 suffix indicates lead-free termination compliant with RoHS directives. This specific model balances high voltage handling with moderate current capacity in a space-efficient form factor.

Replacement Considerations

GBL08E-E3/P is listed as a manufacturer-recommended substitute.
