GBU2010-BP

Overview

The GBU2010-BP is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features a 20 A average rectified forward current and a 1000 V peak repetitive reverse voltage. The device utilizes glass passivated chip junctions for high reliability and surge current capability. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 1.0 V at 10 A, a typical reverse leakage current of 5 uA at 25°C, and a non-repetitive peak surge current of 240 A under an 8.3 ms half-sine wave condition. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated chip junction construction
• High surge forward current capability
• Epoxy meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating

Applications

• General purpose AC to DC power supply conversion
• Industrial rectification circuits
• Power electronics applications requiring high voltage blocking

Procurement Notes

Verify the authenticity of the GBU2010-BP through authorized MCC distributors or direct purchase from the manufacturer. Counterfeit components are prevalent in the market; purchasing from unauthorized sources voids warranty coverage and traceability. Confirm that the ordering suffix "-BP" indicates RoHS compliance and lead-free finish as specified in the official datasheet before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select the GBU2010-BP when a 1000 V reverse voltage rating and 20 A continuous forward current are required. Ensure the application environment allows for adequate thermal management, as the device requires heatsinking to maintain rated current at elevated temperatures. Verify that the PCB footprint matches the GBU package dimensions provided in the mechanical data section of the datasheet.

Part Context

This component belongs to the GBU20005 through GBU2010 series of 20 Amp bridge rectifiers produced by Micro Commercial Components. The series offers various voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining consistent current handling and physical packaging specifications across all variants in the family.

Replacement Considerations

Other parts within the GBU20005-GBU2010 series share identical mechanical and electrical current specifications but differ in voltage ratings. Cross-reference specific voltage requirements when selecting substitutes from other manufacturers offering equivalent GBU package bridge rectifiers.
