KBP2005G

Overview

The KBP2005G is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by SMC Diode Solutions. It features a glass passivated die construction and is housed in a KBP through-hole package. The device supports an average forward rectified output current of 2.0 A at an ambient temperature of 50°C. Its peak repetitive reverse voltage is rated at 50 V, with a maximum RMS voltage of 35 V and a DC blocking voltage of 50 V. The component exhibits a low forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at the rated current and maintains a reverse leakage current of no more than 5 µA at 50 V. It withstands a peak forward surge current of 60 A under standard test conditions.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction for enhanced stability
• High case dielectric strength capability

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation explicitly as SMC Diode Solutions when sourcing this component. Confirm that the part number suffix 'G' corresponds to lead-free and RoHS compliance specifications. Ensure the procurement documentation matches the specific electrical ratings provided in the official datasheet to avoid substitution errors.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a 2.0 A continuous current rating with a 50 V reverse voltage block. The KBP package is suitable for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. Consider the thermal derating requirements for capacitive loads, which typically require a 20% reduction in current capacity compared to resistive or inductive load conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the KBP series of single-phase bridge rectifiers from SMC Diode Solutions. The series utilizes a molded plastic case with UL flammability rating 94V-0. The design integrates glass passivation to protect the silicon junction, ensuring reliability across the specified operating temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible replacements include the KBP2005 from other manufacturers such as Diodes Inc., provided they match the 2.0 A current rating, 50 V reverse voltage, and KBP package dimensions. Verify terminal solderability and polarity markings before implementation.
