Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'C2' corresponds to the green compound packing code as documented in the manufacturer's datasheet. Confirm that the 'G' suffix indicates halogen-free material compliance according to IEC 61249-2-21 definitions. Ensure procurement matches the exact part number to guarantee correct terminal plating and mechanical dimensions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 200 V reverse voltage rating and 1.5 A continuous current are required for through-hole applications. Consider the KBP-4 package dimensions for PCB layout constraints. Evaluate thermal resistance parameters if operating near maximum ambient temperatures or under sustained load conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the KBP15xG series of glass passivated bridge rectifiers produced by Taiwan Semiconductor. The series covers various voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V, sharing common mechanical and electrical characteristics such as the 1.5 A current rating and KBP-4 package style.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other KBP153 variants from different manufacturers ensuring identical 200 V rating, 1.5 A current capacity, and KBP-4 package footprint. Verify pinout polarity markings match the original design requirements.
