KBP4MI_T0_00101

Overview

The KBP4MI_T0_00101 is a bridge rectifier manufactured by Panjit International Inc. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400V and an average forward rectified current of 4A. The component utilizes silicon construction with a single-phase, two-element configuration housed in the KBPC package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum RMS input voltage of 280V and a non-repetitive peak forward surge current rating of 150A at 60Hz for one cycle. The device supports a maximum operating junction temperature of 150°C and maintains a low forward voltage drop of 1.1V at 4A.

Feature Summary

• High surge current capability for robust transient protection
• Low forward voltage drop to minimize power loss
• Plastic encapsulation compliant with UL flammability standards

Applications

• AC-DC bridge rectification in general-purpose power supplies
• Battery charging circuits
• Inverter applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm package dimensions and marking details. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for any recent Product Change Notices regarding assembly sites or material composition updates before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4A continuous current rating and 400V blocking voltage are required for AC-to-DC conversion. Ensure the thermal management design accommodates the specified junction temperature limits and that the PCB footprint matches the standard KBPC outline dimensions provided in the mechanical data section.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KBP series of bridge rectifiers from Panjit International Inc., designed for high-efficiency power conversion. The 'T0' suffix typically denotes the specific reel packaging format used for surface-mount or automated insertion processes within the manufacturer's distribution channels.

Replacement Considerations

Potential substitutes must match the 4A current rating, 400V reverse voltage, and compatible physical footprint. Verify that alternative bridge rectifiers meet the same thermal and electrical specifications without requiring circuit redesign.
