GPA803H

Single Diodes Overview

The GPA803H is an AEC-Q101 qualified standard rectifier from the Taiwan Semiconductor GPA801–GPA807 series. It features a glass passivated chip junction and operates with a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200V. The device supports an average forward current of 8A and a surge peak forward current of 150A. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 1.1V at 8A, a typical junction capacitance of 50pF, and a maximum reverse current of 100µA at 125°C. Thermal performance specifies a junction-to-case thermal resistance of 2.5°C/W. The component utilizes a TO-220AC package.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering code includes the 'H' suffix to confirm AEC-Q101 qualification status. Confirm the specific package variant matches the required tube packing quantity of 50 units per tube. Ensure the selected part number corresponds to the 200V rating within the GPA801–GPA807 series range.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when automotive-grade reliability is required alongside standard rectification capabilities. The 200V rating suits applications requiring moderate reverse voltage blocking. Consider the TO-220AC package for through-hole mounting requirements and adequate heat dissipation for 8A continuous operation.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the GPA801–GPA807 series of 8A standard rectifiers manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor. The series covers voltage ratings from 50V to 1000V. The GPA803H specifically denotes the 200V variant within this lineup, sharing common mechanical and electrical traits with its siblings while differing in reverse voltage specifications.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include GPA801H (50V) and GPA804H (400V), provided voltage ratings align with circuit requirements. Cross-brand replacements must match the 8A current, 200V reverse voltage, and TO-220AC package constraints.
