GBP208

Overview

The GBP208 is a single-phase standard recovery bridge rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a maximum average forward rectified output current of 2.0 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 800 V. The device has a typical junction-to-case thermal resistance of 3 °C/W and a maximum forward voltage of 1.05 V at an IF of 1 A. It utilizes a GBP package with matte tin plated leads, operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C, and supports a peak forward surge current of up to 75 A.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction for reliable operation
• Suitable for printed circuit board mounting
• RoHS compliant and halogen-free green device

Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• AC to DC conversion circuits
• Bridge configurations for electronic equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct packaging and marking codes. Confirm that the component meets all applicable RoHS directives and environmental standards required for your assembly process before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an 800 V blocking capability and 2 A continuous current rating are required. Ensure the application design accounts for the specified forward voltage drop and thermal resistance limits under expected operating temperatures and load conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the GBP206-GBP210 series of 2A standard recovery bridge rectifiers. The series offers varying peak reverse voltage ratings of 600 V, 800 V, and 1000 V while maintaining identical current handling and physical package dimensions across all variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the GBP206 and GBP210 from the same manufacturer family, provided the voltage requirements align with 600 V or 1000 V respectively.
