KBPC10/15/2500WP

Overview

The Diotec Semiconductor KBPC10/15/2500WP is a single-phase silicon bridge rectifier featuring wire terminals. It provides an average forward current (IFAV) of 10 A, 15 A, or 25 A depending on the specific sub-model and thermal conditions. The device supports repetitive peak reverse voltages (VRRM) ranging from 100 V to 1800 V across the series. Key electrical parameters include a maximum forward voltage (VF) below 1.2 V, a peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 270 A at 50 Hz or 300 A at 60 Hz for lower voltage ratings, and a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of approximately 1500 ns. The component operates within a junction temperature range up to 150°C.

Feature Summary

• Four diodes integrated in a bridge configuration with wire terminals
• Plastic case construction with an isolated aluminum baseplate
• UL recognized component under File E175067
• Compliant with RoHS directives and REACH regulations

Applications

• 50/60 Hz mains rectification
• Commercial power supplies
• Industrial grade equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact sub-model suffix corresponding to the required voltage rating when ordering. Confirm terminal type compatibility, as this variant uses wire leads rather than fast-on connectors. Ensure the selected part meets the specific thermal management requirements for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select the appropriate sub-model based on the required peak reverse voltage and the expected load current. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics and derating curves when designing the heat dissipation system. Verify that the wire terminal style matches the assembly process and mechanical constraints of the target PCB or chassis design.

Part Context

This component belongs to the KBPC series of single-phase bridge rectifiers manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor. The series offers various voltage ratings and current capacities, utilizing either fast-on or wire terminals. The KBPC10/15/2500WP specifically denotes the wire terminal version within this standardized product family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the IFAV, VRRM, and package dimensions. Check datasheets for equivalent parts from other manufacturers offering similar thermal resistance and surge current capabilities.
