KBPC10/15/2506FP

Overview

The Diotec Semiconductor KBPC10/15/2506FP is a single-phase silicon bridge rectifier designed for commercial and industrial applications. It features an average forward rectified current (IFAV) of 10 A, 15 A, or 25 A depending on the specific sub-model variant within the series, with a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 600 V. The device utilizes fast-on terminals (FP) and incorporates an isolated aluminum baseplate for thermal management. Key electrical characteristics include a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of approximately 1500 ns and a peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 300 A at 60 Hz. The component operates within a junction temperature range up to 150°C.

Feature Summary

• Four diodes integrated in a bridge configuration housed in a plastic case with an isolated aluminum baseplate
• Fast-on terminals compatible with 6.3mm connectors, allowing for alternative solder assembly
• UL recognized component under File E175067
• Compliant with RoHS directives (exemption 7a-I), REACH regulations, and conflict mineral standards

Applications

• 50/60 Hz mains rectification
• General power supplies
• Commercial and industrial grade equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact IFAV rating required for the specific application, as the KBPC10/15/2506FP designation covers multiple current variants (10A, 15A, and 25A). Confirm terminal type compatibility, ensuring the design supports either the standard 6.3mm fast-on connectors or allows for direct soldering per JESD22-B102E and JESD22-B106C standards. Check for any specific automotive qualification suffixes if AEC-Q101 compliance is necessary.

Selection Notes

Select the appropriate current variant based on the load requirements and cooling conditions. The device supports derating based on case temperature; ensure the thermal resistance from junction to case remains below 2.0 K/W per device. For high surge currents, verify that the half-sine-wave pulse duration matches the 50 Hz or 60 Hz specifications provided in the datasheet. Consider the physical dimensions and mounting requirements associated with the KBPC package style.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Diotec KBPC series of single-phase bridge rectifiers, which offers various current ratings and voltage options. The 'FP' suffix specifically denotes the fast-on terminal configuration, distinguishing it from wire-terminal versions. This series is engineered for robust performance in standard commercial and industrial environments, providing reliable rectification for AC-to-DC conversion tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 600 V VRRM, similar IFAV ratings, and fast-on terminal interface. Verify thermal resistance and package dimensions to ensure mechanical compatibility. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' KBPC-style bridge rectifiers offering comparable surge current capabilities and reverse recovery times.
