GBU10V08-TU

Overview

The GBU10V08-TU is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, rated for a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 800 V and an average rectified output current of 10 A. It utilizes glass passivated die construction to ensure reliable operation across a wide temperature range from -40°C to +150°C junction temperature. The device features a low forward voltage drop of 0.92 V maximum at 5 A and supports high surge currents up to 250 A (8.3 ms) or 500 A (1.0 ms). Packaged in the GBU through-hole format with matte tin plated leads, it meets UL recognition standards and RoHS compliance requirements.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction provides stable electrical characteristics and long-term reliability.
• Low forward voltage drop design minimizes power dissipation and improves overall system efficiency.
• High surge current capability ensures robust performance during transient overload conditions.
• RoHS compliant and halogen-free 'Green' device suitable for environmentally regulated applications.

Applications

• General purpose AC-DC power supply circuits
• Battery charging systems
• Industrial control equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix matches the required packing quantity, as the TU variant is supplied in tubes of 20 units. Confirm the specific voltage rating corresponds to the application needs, as this series includes both 600 V and 800 V options. Ensure the procurement channel is authorized to guarantee product authenticity and adherence to standard terms of sale.

Selection Notes

Select the GBU10V08-TU when an 800 V blocking voltage is required alongside a 10 A continuous current capacity. Consider the thermal resistance values provided for heatsinked versus non-heatsinked mounting scenarios to determine appropriate cooling methods. Verify that the package dimensions align with the printed circuit board layout constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the GBU10Vxx series of low forward voltage bridge rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. The series offers standardized ratings for various voltage classes while maintaining consistent mechanical and electrical performance profiles across the lineup.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same manufacturer family include the GBU10V06-TU, which shares identical physical dimensions and current ratings but operates at a lower 600 V reverse voltage rating.
