KBP152G C2

Overview

The KBP152G C2 is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor. It features glass passivation and utilizes a molded plastic KBP-4 package for through-hole mounting. The device supports a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.5 A and a peak forward surge current of 50 A. Electrical specifications include a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V, a maximum RMS voltage of 140 V, and a maximum DC blocking voltage of 200 V. The typical instantaneous forward voltage is 1.1 V at 1.5 A. Operating junction temperature ranges from -55°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated structure provides high reliability and stability under varying thermal conditions.
• Molded plastic construction ensures mechanical robustness with UL flammability classification rating 94V-0.
• Compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and WEEE 2002/96/EC standards.
• Halogen-free composition according to IEC 61249-2-21 definition.

Applications

• Printed circuit board power supply circuits
• General purpose AC to DC conversion
• Low cost rectification applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'C2' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm packing code and green compound requirements. Ensure compliance with halogen-free definitions per IEC 61249-2-21 if required by project specifications. Cross-reference the datasheet version D13 for accurate mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a 200 V reverse voltage rating and 1.5 A continuous current capability in a through-hole KBP-4 package. Consider the operating junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C for environmental suitability. Evaluate the 50 A peak surge current rating against potential inrush currents in the target circuit design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KBP15xG series, which includes variants ranging from 50 V to 1000 V reverse voltage ratings. All members share identical physical dimensions and current handling capabilities, differing only in their voltage blocking specifications. The 'G' suffix indicates a halogen-free formulation within the standard KBP line.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes within the same series include KBP151G, KBP153G, KBP154G, KBP155G, KBP156G, and KBP157G, provided the voltage rating meets or exceeds the circuit requirements. Verify that alternative manufacturers offer equivalent KBP-4 package dimensions and thermal characteristics.
