GBPC5004-G

Overview

The GBPC5004-G is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Comchip Technology, designed for through-hole mounting in the GBPC-4 package. It features a forward current rating of 50 A and a peak reverse voltage of 400 V. The component exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 25 A and supports a surge current of 800 A. Operating temperatures range from -55°C to +150°C, with a reverse leakage current of 10 µA.

Feature Summary

• Single-phase bridge rectification using glass passivated silicon junctions
• High thermal stability supporting extended operating temperature ranges
• Robust surge current handling capability for transient protection

Applications

• AC-to-DC power supply conversion circuits
• Battery charging systems
• General-purpose rectification in industrial equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official Comchip Technology documentation to ensure compliance with electrical ratings and package specifications. Confirm RoHS status and lead times directly with authorized distributors or the manufacturer, as availability and production schedules may vary. Cross-reference datasheet parameters such as forward voltage and reverse leakage current to validate performance requirements for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-current single-phase rectifier is required for applications involving 400 V reverse voltage stress. The GBPC-4 package accommodates screw or through-hole mounting, suitable for board-level or chassis-mount designs. Ensure thermal management strategies account for the 1.1 V forward voltage drop at full load to maintain junction temperatures within the specified operational limits during continuous operation.

Part Context

This device belongs to the GBP series of high-current bridge rectifiers produced by Comchip Technology. The series utilizes glass passivation techniques to enhance reliability and reduce reverse leakage current compared to standard epoxy encapsulated alternatives. The GBPC5004-G specifically targets applications requiring robust performance in medium to high-power AC rectification scenarios where thermal endurance and surge tolerance are critical design factors.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 50 A, 400 V bridge rectifiers in similar packages, such as KBPC5004 or GBPC5004 equivalents. Verify pinout compatibility, mechanical dimensions, and electrical characteristics including forward voltage and reverse leakage before substitution.
