GBPC2502

Overview

The onsemi GBPC2502 is a single-phase bridge rectifier from the GBPC25 series, rated for a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 200 V and an average rectified forward current of 25 A at a case temperature of 55°C. It features a non-repetitive peak forward surge current capability of 300 A over an 8.3 ms half-sine-wave pulse. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and utilizes a GBPC package with screw terminals. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 12.5 A and a maximum reverse leakage current of 5 µA at 25°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrally molded heat sink provides very low thermal resistance for effective heat dissipation.
• Offers isolated voltage from the case to the lead exceeding 2500 V.
• Terminals are finished with nickel plating suitable for the standard GBPC package.

Applications

• Power supply circuits requiring single-phase rectification
• Industrial equipment power stages
• General-purpose AC to DC conversion

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm terminal finish and mounting style. Confirm that the component meets RoHS compliance requirements if applicable to your design specifications. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed during installation to maintain the integrity of the encapsulated unit.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 200 V reverse voltage rating and 25 A continuous current capacity are required. Verify that the thermal management solution can handle the specified power dissipation of 83.3 W. Consider the mechanical mounting constraints associated with the GBPC package dimensions and screw terminal spacing.

Part Context

This part belongs to the GBPC 12, 15, 25, 35 Series of bridge rectifiers manufactured by onsemi. The series offers various voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining consistent current ratings per sub-series. The GBPC2502 specifically addresses applications needing robust performance in the 200 V range.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other single-phase bridge rectifiers with matching 200 V and 25 A ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and physical dimensions before substitution. Consult the manufacturer's cross-reference guide for approved alternative part numbers.
