GBPC1502

Overview

The onsemi GBPC1502 is a single-phase bridge rectifier from the GBPC15 series, rated for an average forward current of 15 A at a case temperature of 55°C. It features a maximum repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) of 200 V and a non-repetitive peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 300 A. The device utilizes a glass-passivated junction structure within a GBPC package (Case 160AD), measuring 28.75 mm by 28.75 mm with a height of 11.10 mm. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 7.5 A and a maximum reverse current of 5 µA at 25°C. Thermal resistance from junction to case is 1.5 °C/W.

Feature Summary

• Integrally molded heat sink provides very low thermal resistance for efficient heat dissipation.
• Glass passivated junctions ensure high reliability and stable electrical performance.
• Terminals are nickel-plated for corrosion resistance and solderability.

Applications

• Power supply units requiring single-phase rectification.
• DC power adapters and chargers.
• General purpose rectification in industrial equipment.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm terminal configuration. Standard GBPC variants utilize screw mounting terminals, while suffix W indicates wire leads. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free certification directly with the supplier or through the latest datasheet revision notes before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 15 A continuous current rating and 200 V blocking voltage are required. Ensure the application allows for screw-mounting or verify if wire-lead versions are needed. Check derating curves for operation above 55°C case temperature. Validate that the PCB or chassis layout accommodates the 29 mm x 29 mm footprint and 11.23 mm height.

Part Context

This part belongs to the GBPC 12, 15, 25, and 35 series of bridge rectifiers manufactured by onsemi. The series shares common mechanical dimensions and thermal characteristics, differing primarily in current ratings and voltage capabilities. The GBPC1502 specifically represents the 15 A / 200 V configuration within this standardized family.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering GBPC-style packages. Verify that substitute parts match the 15 A IF(AV), 200 V VRRM, and 1.5 °C/W thermal resistance specifications. Ensure pinout compatibility and mounting torque requirements (20 in-lbs max) are met by any alternative components.
