GBU4J-BP

Overview

The GBU4J-BP is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features an average forward current of 4 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V. The device utilizes glass passivated chip junctions for reliability and offers a high surge overload rating of 150 A. It operates within a temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C. The component is housed in a GBU-4 package with solder pin termination, designed for through-hole mounting.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated chip junction construction ensures high reliability and stability under varying thermal conditions.
• High surge overload capability allows the device to withstand transient current spikes during operation.
• Molded plastic case provides UL flammability classification rating 94V-0 for enhanced safety compliance.

Applications

• General-purpose AC to DC power supply circuits
• Battery charging systems requiring medium current rectification
• Industrial control equipment power stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and manufacturer part number against official MCC documentation before procurement. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized distributors. Ensure the component matches the required voltage and current ratings for the target application circuit design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600 V reverse voltage rating and 4 A continuous forward current are required. The GBU-4 through-hole package is suitable for applications needing robust mechanical mounting. Verify that the operating environment stays within the specified -55 °C to +150 °C temperature range for optimal performance.

Part Context

This component belongs to the GBU series of single-phase bridge rectifiers from Micro Commercial Components. The series covers various voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V with current options including 4 A. The GBU4J-BP specifically addresses the 600 V requirement within the 4 A current class using standard through-hole technology.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with Vishay GBU4J/72 or GBU4J/72-E3 for potential functional equivalents. Verify pinout compatibility and physical dimensions before substitution. Ensure alternative components meet the same 600 V and 4 A specifications.
