KBPC25005T

Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor KBPC25005T is a single-phase silicon bridge rectifier housed in the KBPC-T package. It features a maximum average forward rectified current (IO) of 25 A and a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 50 V. The device supports a peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 350 A under standard half-sine wave conditions. Electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage (VF) of 1.1 V per leg at Tc = 25 °C and a typical junction capacitance (Cj) of 300 pF. Thermal resistance from junction to case (RΘJC) is rated at 1.9 °C/W. The component operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C.

Feature Summary

• High efficiency silicon junction construction
• Metal heat sink integrated into the encapsulation for thermal management
• Non-ESD sensitive design with polarity markings on the case

Applications

• General purpose AC to DC rectification
• Power supply circuits requiring 25 A continuous current
• Industrial equipment operating in high-temperature environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official GeneSiC Semiconductor documentation to confirm the exact package variant, as the 'T' designation corresponds to the KBPC-T package style. Ensure that the procurement source provides valid datasheets matching the electrical parameters listed above. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to confirm authenticity and traceability before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 50 V rating is required for single-phase bridge rectification applications. The KBPC-T package offers through-hole mounting capabilities suitable for screw installation. Consider the thermal resistance and operating temperature limits when designing heatsinking solutions. Verify that the load characteristics align with the specified surge current ratings and derating requirements for capacitive loads.

Part Context

This component belongs to the KBPC250 series of single-phase silicon bridge rectifiers manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series includes variants with different voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 400 V, all sharing the same 25 A current handling capability. The KBPC25005T specifically denotes the 50 V version within this lineup, utilizing the KBPC-T package configuration for mechanical mounting.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 25 A, 50 V single-phase bridge rectifiers in the KBPC-T or equivalent packages. Ensure replacement parts match the thermal resistance, forward voltage drop, and surge current specifications. Verify pinout compatibility and mounting hole dimensions to maintain mechanical integrity in existing designs.
