KBPC1506-G

Overview

The KBPC1506-G is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Comchip Technology. It utilizes glass-passivated silicon junctions and features an electrically isolated metal case for efficient heat dissipation. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V and provides a continuous forward current of 15 A. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. The component is housed in the KBPC-G package with four pins, designed for through-hole mounting applications requiring robust rectification capabilities.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated chip junctions ensure high reliability and low leakage current
• Electrically isolated metal case facilitates effective thermal management
• High surge current capability handles transient load conditions

Applications

• General-purpose AC to DC power supply circuits
• Battery charging systems
• Industrial control power modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official Comchip Technology documentation to confirm compliance with RoHS directives and other environmental standards. Ensure that the ordering suffix matches the required lead-free or halogen-free specifications defined in the latest datasheet before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 15 A continuous current rating and 600 V reverse voltage blocking capability are required. The KBPC-G package offers a compact form factor suitable for PCB mounting where thermal isolation from the board is necessary. Verify that the application's peak inverse voltage does not exceed the rated limit under all operating conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the KBPC-G series of glass-passivated bridge rectifiers produced by Comchip Technology. The series covers various voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining a consistent 15 A current rating. The KBPC1506-G specifically addresses mid-range voltage applications within this standardized product family.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the GBPC1506 from Comchip Technology and equivalent 15 A / 600 V bridge rectifiers from other manufacturers such as Littelfuse or Vishay, provided pinout and thermal characteristics match.
