KBPC2502-G

Overview

The KBPC2502-G is a single-phase standard bridge rectifier manufactured by Comchip Technology. It features an average forward current rating of 25 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V. The device utilizes a KBPC-W-4 package with screw mount installation style and through-hole termination. Key electrical parameters include a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V, a non-repetitive peak surge current of 400 A, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 10 uA. The component operates within a temperature range from -55°C to +150°C junction temperature.

Feature Summary

• Single-phase bridge rectification architecture for AC to DC conversion
• Standard silicon technology ensuring reliable performance under resistive or inductive loads
• Screw mount configuration facilitating secure mechanical attachment to heat sinks

Applications

• General purpose power supply circuits
• Battery charging systems
• DC power adapters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version when ordering, as manufacturing specifications may undergo updates. Confirm that the KBPC-W-4 package dimensions align with your thermal management design requirements. Ensure that the screw mount terminals are compatible with your assembly hardware. Cross-reference the 200 V reverse voltage rating against your circuit's peak inverse voltage demands to prevent breakdown.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 25 A current capacity and 200 V blocking voltage are required in a robust screw-mount package. Consider the 1.1 V forward voltage drop for efficiency calculations in low-voltage applications. Evaluate the 400 A surge capability against potential inrush currents in your specific load scenario. Compare thermal resistance characteristics if operating near the upper limit of the specified temperature range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KBPC series of bridge rectifiers from Comchip Technology, designed for medium-power applications. The series typically offers various voltage ratings while maintaining consistent current handling capabilities. The KBPC2502-G specifically targets applications requiring moderate voltage isolation with high current throughput, distinguishing it from lower-current SMD alternatives or higher-current industrial variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 25 A current rating, 200 V reverse voltage, and KBPC-W-4 package form factor. Verify equivalent forward voltage and surge current specifications to ensure circuit compatibility. Check for identical mounting hole patterns and terminal configurations to maintain mechanical fit without redesigning the PCB or chassis.
