KBJ2506G

Overview

The KBJ2506G is a single-phase glass-passivated silicon bridge rectifier manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. It provides a maximum average forward rectified current of 25 A at an ambient temperature of 25 °C and supports peak forward surge currents up to 350 A. The device features a repetitive peak reverse voltage rating of 600 V, with a maximum instantaneous forward voltage drop of 1.05 V per leg at 25 °C. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to 125 °C and utilizes a molded plastic construction classified as UL flammability rating 94V-0.

Feature Summary

• Glass-passivated silicon construction for reliable performance
• Molded plastic technique with UL 94V-0 flammability classification
• Low forward voltage drop design for high current capability

Applications

• Printed circuit board mounting applications
• General-purpose AC to DC power conversion
• Industrial rectification circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation on official documentation, as distributor listings may display conflicting brand names such as Navitas Semiconductor or GeneSiC Semiconductor. Confirm that the component matches the specific KBJ package dimensions and terminal configuration provided in the datasheet before integration into designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 25 A continuous current rating and 600 V reverse voltage blocking capability are required for through-hole PCB assembly. Ensure thermal management accounts for the specified operating temperature limits and derating requirements for capacitive loads.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KBJ series of single-phase bridge rectifiers, which includes variants ranging from 600 V to 1000 V reverse voltage ratings. The series shares common physical packaging and electrical characteristics, differentiated primarily by their peak reverse voltage specifications.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the KBJ2508G and KBJ2510G, which share identical current ratings and package dimensions but offer higher reverse voltage capabilities of 800 V and 1000 V respectively.
