KBP153G C2

Overview

The KBP153G C2 is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor. It features glass passivation and operates with a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.5 A. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V, corresponding to a maximum RMS voltage of 140 V and a DC blocking voltage of 200 V. Electrical characteristics include a peak forward surge current capability of 50 A at 8.3 ms and a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.1 V at 1.5 A. Reverse leakage current is specified at 10 µA at 25°C and 500 µA at 125°C. The component utilizes a KBP-4 through-hole package.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'C2' against official documentation to confirm packing code details, such as tube quantity and green compound specifications. Ensure compliance requirements match project needs, including RoHS and halogen-free status. Confirm mechanical dimensions and lead plating specifications (matte tin) align with PCB layout constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 200 V peak reverse voltage rating is required alongside a 1.5 A continuous current capacity. Consider the KBP-4 through-hole package for standard mounting techniques. Evaluate thermal resistance parameters if operating near maximum temperature limits. Compare alternative voltage ratings within the KBP15xG series if system voltages differ from the 200 V specification.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KBP151G through KBP157G series of glass passivated bridge rectifiers produced by Taiwan Semiconductor. The series covers various voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining consistent current and physical characteristics. The KBP153G specifically addresses applications requiring 200 V blocking capability within this standardized inline bridge rectifier family.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference other manufacturers offering KBP-style bridge rectifiers with identical 1.5 A current and 200 V voltage ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and mechanical footprint alignment with the KBP-4 package. Ensure electrical parameters such as forward voltage and reverse leakage meet or exceed original specifications.
