GBPC6005/1

Overview

The GBPC6005 is a glass passivated single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It provides a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 50 V and supports a maximum average forward rectified output current (IF(AV)) of 6.0 A at a case temperature of 50 °C. The device features a peak forward surge current capability (IFSM) of 175 A and a typical junction capacitance of 186 pF per diode at 4 V, 1 MHz. Operating within a temperature range of -55 to +150 °C, it utilizes the GBPC6 package style.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivation for reliable operation
• High surge current capability
• Ideal for printed circuit board mounting

Applications

• AC/DC bridge full wave rectification for power supplies
• Home appliances
• Office equipment
• Industrial automation applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official Vishay documentation to ensure compliance with RoHS standards and commercial grade specifications. Confirm that the ordering suffix matches the required delivery mode and base quantity. Always validate electrical parameters for your specific application conditions before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select the GBPC6005 when a 50 V rating is required for single-phase rectification. Ensure the thermal management design accommodates the specified thermal resistance values. Verify that the operating ambient temperature allows for the rated 6.0 A current or apply appropriate derating curves for higher temperatures.

Part Context

This component belongs to the GBPC6 series of single-phase bridge rectifiers from Vishay. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings such as 100 V, 200 V, 400 V, 600 V, 800 V, and 1000 V, all sharing the same 6 A current rating and GBPC6 package form factor.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Vishay GBPC6 series parts like GBPC601 or GBPC602 if voltage requirements differ. Cross-manufacturer equivalents must match the 6 A current, 50 V reverse voltage, and GBPC6 package dimensions.
