GBPC2510/1

Overview

The Vishay GBPC2510/1 is a single-phase bridge rectifier from the GBPC25 series, rated for 25 A average forward current and 1000 V repetitive peak reverse voltage. It utilizes glass passivated die construction to ensure high reliability under demanding conditions. The component supports screw mount installation within the GBPC package, featuring dimensions of approximately 28.8 mm by 28.8 mm with a height of 7.62 mm. It operates across a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C junction temperature, with a maximum non-repetitive surge current of 300 A.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction provides robust protection against voltage transients and mechanical stress.
• High current capability allows for efficient power conversion in heavy-duty applications.
• Low forward voltage drop contributes to reduced power dissipation and improved thermal performance.

Applications

• Industrial power supply units requiring high voltage isolation
• Battery charging systems for electric vehicles and industrial equipment
• Welding machine rectification circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as variations such as E4/51 or TA indicate different packaging or compliance standards. Confirm that the GBPC2510/1 designation aligns with the required 1000V rating and 25A current capacity for your circuit design before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high surge current handling and wide operating temperature ranges. Ensure the PCB or heatsink layout accommodates the screw mount terminals and the physical dimensions of the GBPC package. Compare leakage current specifications at maximum junction temperature if thermal management is critical.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay GBPC25 series of single-phase bridge rectifiers. The series offers various voltage ratings including 400V, 600V, and 1000V options, all sharing the same 25A current rating and mechanical footprint. The GBPC2510 variant specifically targets high-voltage AC-to-DC conversion needs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the VS-GBPC2510A for surface mount requirements, though terminal types differ. Other manufacturers offering equivalent 25A/1000V screw-mount bridges should be evaluated for matching forward voltage and surge current capabilities.
