GBP206

Overview

The GBP206 is a single-phase standard recovery bridge rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a maximum average rectified output current of 2.0 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 600 V. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.05 V at an IF of 1 A and a maximum leakage current of 5 µA at TJ = +25°C. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and supports a peak forward surge current of 75 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine wave. The component utilizes a GBP package with matte tin-plated leads.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction ensures reliable operation under various electrical conditions.
• Rated up to 1000 V PRV, providing robust protection against reverse voltage spikes.
• Designed for efficient printed circuit board mounting using the GBP package format.
• Compliant with RoHS directives and halogen-free standards for environmentally safe deployment.

Applications

• General-purpose AC to DC conversion in power supply circuits
• Bridge rectification in low-voltage electronic equipment
• Polarity protection in DC input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and packaging quantity when sourcing components. Confirm that the delivered parts match the GBP206 designation and originate from authorized channels to ensure compliance with quality standards. Check datasheet revisions for any updates to mechanical dimensions or electrical limits prior to finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select the GBP206 when a 600 V blocking capability and 2 A continuous current rating are required. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics and derating curves if operating near maximum ratings. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the GBP package dimensions and lead spacing for proper soldering and heat dissipation during assembly.

Part Context

The GBP206 belongs to the GBP206-GBP210 series of standard recovery bridge rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. This family shares identical electrical characteristics except for the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating, which varies across the series. The GBP206 specifically targets applications requiring 600 V isolation while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for dense circuit board designs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other GBP206 variants from different manufacturers offering identical 600 V, 2 A specifications in the GBP package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance before substitution. Cross-reference with GBP208 or GBP210 only if higher voltage ratings are acceptable for the application design.
