KBJ601G

Overview

The KBJ601G is a single-phase standard recovery bridge rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features an average rectified output current (Io) of 6.0 A and a peak repetitive reverse voltage (Vrrm) of 100 V. The maximum forward voltage (Vf) is 1.0 V at a forward current (If) of 3.0 A, while the peak reverse current (Ir) is limited to 5.0 µA at 25°C and 500 µA at 125°C. The device supports a non-repetitive peak forward surge current (Ifsm) of 170 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine wave. Operating and storage temperature ranges extend from -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction ensures high reliability and low reverse leakage current.
• High case dielectric strength rated at 2500 VRMS for enhanced isolation safety.
• Surge overload rating capable of handling up to 170 A peak forward current.
• Designed specifically for printed circuit board applications with through-hole mounting.

Applications

• Printed circuit board power supply designs
• General purpose AC to DC conversion circuits
• Industrial control systems requiring robust bridge rectification

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity against official Diodes Incorporated documentation before integration. Confirm that the specific lot codes meet project requirements for RoHS compliance and lead-free finish standards. Ensure procurement channels are authorized to prevent counterfeit risks associated with electronic components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 100 V blocking capability is required for 6 A continuous loads. Verify thermal management strategies align with the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance. Consider derating factors if operating under capacitive load conditions or elevated ambient temperatures beyond standard ratings.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KBJ6005G-KBJ610G series, which shares identical electrical characteristics except for the reverse voltage rating. The series utilizes the KBJ package format, providing a standardized footprint for various voltage levels ranging from 50 V to 1000 V within the same physical housing constraints.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other KBJ601G variants from different manufacturers offering equivalent 6 A / 100 V specifications. Cross-reference pinouts and mechanical dimensions to ensure compatibility with existing PCB layouts and mounting hardware torque requirements.

FAQ

What is the maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current?

The KBJ601G can withstand a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 170 A for an 8.3 ms single half-sine wave superimposed on rated load.

How does the reverse leakage current vary with temperature?

The peak reverse current is specified as 5.0 µA at a case temperature of +25°C and increases to 500 µA at a case temperature of +125°C at the rated DC blocking voltage.

Is the KBJ601G suitable for automotive applications?

Standard KBJ601G parts are not automatically qualified for automotive use. For applications requiring AEC-Q100/101/104/200 qualification and IATF 16949 manufacturing, direct contact with Diodes Incorporated is necessary.
