KBPC5002-G

Overview

The KBPC5002-G is a 50 A, 200 V silicon bridge rectifier manufactured by Comchip Technology. It belongs to the KBPC40/50G/W series and features glass-passivated die construction for low reverse leakage current and high efficiency. The device utilizes an electrically isolated epoxy case with an internally mounted metal heat sink to maximize thermal dissipation. The component supports through-hole mounting using a #10 screw and includes plated leads solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208. The case-to-terminal isolation voltage is rated at 2500 V, and the approximate weight is 24 grams.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction ensures low reverse leakage current and high efficiency.
• Electrically isolated epoxy case with an internally mounted metal heat sink for maximum heat dissipation.
• Case to terminal isolation voltage rating of 2500 V.

Applications

• General purpose power supply rectification
• Industrial control systems
• AC to DC conversion circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Comchip Technology against the specific datasheet provided by the supplier. Confirm that the suffix -G indicates compliance status without altering electrical function. Ensure the ordering information matches the KBPC5002-G part number exactly to avoid confusion with similar series components from other manufacturers.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 50 A average forward current and 200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage are required. The integrated metal heat sink makes it suitable for applications needing robust thermal management in a through-hole package. Verify that the 2500 V case-to-terminal isolation meets the safety requirements of the target circuit design.

Part Context

This component is part of the KBPC40/50G/W series, which includes variants with different voltage ratings but similar current handling capabilities. The 'G' suffix typically denotes environmental compliance. The physical dimensions and mounting style are consistent across the series, allowing for potential mechanical interchangeability with other parts in the same family, subject to electrical verification.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with KBPC5002 from other manufacturers such as Won-Top Electronics or DIOTEC (KBPC5002F) for equivalent specifications. Ensure the replacement maintains the 50 A current rating, 200 V voltage rating, and compatible epoxy case with metal heat sink construction.
