GBPC2506 T0G

Overview

The GBPC2506 T0G is a single-phase silicon bridge rectifier from the Taiwan Semiconductor GBPC15, 25, 35 Series. It features a maximum average forward rectified current (IF) of 25 A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 600 V. The device utilizes glass passivated chip junctions to achieve low reverse leakage current, typically less than 0.2 μA. Electrical specifications include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 12.5 A and a peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 300 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine wave. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C and exhibits a typical junction-to-case thermal resistance of 1.5 °C/W.

Feature Summary

• Integrally molded heatsink design provides very low thermal resistance for efficient heat dissipation.
• Glass passivated chip junction construction ensures high reliability and stable electrical performance.
• High surge current capability supports transient overload conditions during operation.

Applications

• Switching mode power supplies (SMPS)
• AC to DC converter circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T0G' against the manufacturer's official ordering information table. The provided datasheet lists standard suffixes such as 'x', 'M', and 'W' for package variations but does not explicitly define 'T0G'. Confirm that this suffix corresponds to the standard GBPC wire-lead package and verify RoHS compliance status directly with the supplier or manufacturer documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a 25 A continuous current rating and 600 V blocking voltage. Ensure the thermal management design accounts for the 1.5 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. Verify that the operating environment stays within the specified -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and that surge currents do not exceed the 300 A limit.

Part Context

This part belongs to the GBPC15, 25, 35 Series manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. The series offers various current ratings (15 A, 25 A, 35 A) and voltage options ranging from 50 V to 1000 V. The GBPC2506 specifically addresses the 25 A / 600 V segment of this product line, utilizing the standard GBPC plastic encapsulated package with an integrated metal heatsink.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering the GBPC2506 specification, such as Diodes Incorporated or Vishay. Ensure substitute parts match the 25 A IF, 600 V VRRM, and 1.1 V VF parameters. Verify mechanical compatibility of the GBPC package dimensions and terminal configurations before implementation.
