GSGBJ5001H

Overview

The Good-Ark Semiconductor GSGBJ5001H is a single-phase standard bridge rectifier designed for high-current applications. It features a GBJ(5S) through-hole package with glass passivated die construction. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 70 V and an average rectified output current of 50.0 A at a case temperature of 90°C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical forward voltage drop of 1.1 V per element at 25 A, a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 600 A (8.3 ms), and a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 75 °C/W. Operating temperatures range from -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction for enhanced reliability
• High current capability with 50.0 A average rectified output
• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• High surge current capability for robust performance

Applications

• General purpose power supply circuits
• AC to DC conversion systems
• Industrial equipment requiring high current rectification

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage rating required for the application, as the GSGBJ50xxH series includes variants ranging from 50V to 1000V. Confirm that the thermal management design accounts for the specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance without a heatsink. Ensure the mounting position aligns with the mechanical data requirements for the GBJ package.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 70 V reverse voltage rating and 50 A continuous current capacity are necessary. Consider the GBJ package dimensions for PCB layout constraints. Evaluate the thermal derating curve if operating conditions exceed standard ambient temperatures or if capacitive loads are present, which require a 20% current derate.

Part Context

This part belongs to the GSGBJ50xxH series of bridge rectifiers manufactured by Good-Ark Semiconductor. The series covers a wide voltage range from 50V to 1000V while maintaining a consistent 50.0 A current rating. All variants share the same GBJ package and general electrical characteristics, differing primarily in their peak reverse voltage ratings.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes must match the 50 A current rating, 70 V minimum reverse voltage, and GBJ package form factor. Verify that alternative components offer comparable forward voltage drops and surge current capabilities to ensure circuit performance parity.
