KBP201G C2G

Overview

The KBP201G C2G is a glass-passivated bridge rectifier from Taiwan Semiconductor, rated for a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 50 V and a maximum average forward rectified current of 2 A. It features a peak forward surge current capability of 60 A and a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.2 V at 2 A. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -55 to +150 °C and utilizes a molded plastic KBP case with matte tin-plated leads.

Feature Summary

• Compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and WEEE 2002/96/EC standards
• Halogen-free construction according to IEC 61249-2-21 definition
• UL Recognized File # E-326243 with 94V-0 flammability rating
• Meets JESD 201 class 1A whisker test requirements

Applications

• Printed circuit board assembly for general-purpose rectification
• Power supply units requiring low-cost reliable construction
• Applications demanding high surge current capability

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'C2G' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm packing code and green compound specifications. Ensure compliance with RoHS and halogen-free requirements matches project constraints. Confirm lead plating material is matte tin per JESD22-B102 solderability standards before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2 A average forward current and 50 V reverse voltage rating are required in an inline bridge package. Consider the 60 A surge current rating for transient protection needs. Verify thermal resistance parameters if operating near the upper junction temperature limit of 150 °C.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KBP201G through KBP207G series of glass-passivated bridge rectifiers manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor. The series covers reverse voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining a consistent 2 A forward current rating across all variants.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering KBP-style 2 A bridge rectifiers with 50 V ratings. Ensure mechanical dimensions match the KBP outline provided in the datasheet. Verify electrical characteristics such as forward voltage and reverse leakage current meet or exceed original specifications.
