KBL607G

Overview

The KBL607G is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, designed for through-hole mounting in the KBL-4 package. It features a peak repetitive reverse voltage (Vrrm) of 1000 V and an average forward rectified current (If) of 6 A. The device supports a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current (Ifsm) of 175 A. Electrical characteristics include a typical peak forward voltage (Vf) of 1.1 V and a maximum reverse current (Ir) of 5 μA. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated junctions provide high reliability and stable performance under varying thermal conditions.
• High case dielectric strength ensures robust insulation and safety in high-voltage applications.
• Compliant with RoHS directives and WEEE standards, ensuring environmental safety and regulatory adherence.

Applications

• AC-to-DC power supply circuits requiring high voltage isolation.
• General-purpose rectification in industrial control systems.
• Battery charging equipment operating at elevated voltages.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G' confirms halogen-free compliance and green compound molding as per manufacturer specifications. Confirm package dimensions match the KBL-4 footprint requirements for PCB layout. Ensure sourcing channels provide original manufacturer documentation to validate electrical ratings against counterfeit risks.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1000 V rating is required for single-phase rectification with a 6 A continuous current capacity. Compare the KBL-4 package size against available board space, noting its slightly larger profile compared to GBU series alternatives. Evaluate thermal management needs given the 150°C maximum junction temperature limit.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KBL series of glass passivated bridge rectifiers from Taiwan Semiconductor. The series offers various voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining consistent 6 A current handling capabilities across the lineup.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements within the same series include KBL605G (600 V) or KBL608G (1200 V), provided voltage ratings suit the circuit design. Cross-series equivalents like GBU607 may require mechanical adaptation due to package differences.
