VS-KBPC106

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The VS-KBPC106 is a single-phase rectifier bridge from the Vishay KBPC series, featuring four silicon junctions in a full-bridge configuration. It provides a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) of 600 V and a maximum non-repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRSM) of 600 V. The device supports an average output current (IO) of 3.0 A at a case temperature of 50 °C with resistive or inductive loads. It operates within a junction temperature range of -40 to +150 °C and utilizes the D-72 package.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct voltage ratings and packaging options. Confirm that the thermal management requirements align with the specified case temperature limits for the intended load conditions. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by the application standards.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600 V reverse voltage rating is required for single-phase rectification. Ensure the operating environment allows for adequate heat dissipation to maintain the case temperature at or below 50 °C for the rated 3.0 A current. Consider the D-72 package dimensions for PCB layout constraints.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

This component belongs to the VS-KBPC1 and VS-KBPC6 series of single-phase rectifier bridges manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. The series offers various voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 1000 V, with the KBPC1 variant providing up to 3.0 A average output current.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 600 V VRRM, 3.0 A IO rating, and D-72 package outline. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance characteristics before substitution.
