VS-KBPC110

Bridge Rectifier Overview

The VS-KBPC110 is a single-phase silicon bridge rectifier from the Vishay KBPC1 series, rated for a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000 V and an average output current of 3.0 A at a case temperature of 50 °C. It utilizes a D-72 through-hole package with solder pin termination. The device supports a non-repetitive surge current of 55 A at 60 Hz and operates within a junction temperature range of -40 °C to +150 °C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical peak reverse leakage current of 10 μA at 25 °C and a maximum peak forward voltage of 1.1 V per diode.

Bridge Rectifier Feature Summary

• Compact construction suitable for printed circuit board or chassis mounting
• High surge current capability for robust performance under transient conditions

Bridge Rectifier Applications

• Industrial equipment power supplies
• Consumer electronics AC-to-DC conversion
• General-purpose rectification circuits

Bridge Rectifier Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official Vishay documentation to ensure compliance with the VS-KBPC1 series specifications. Confirm that the required voltage and current ratings align with the design parameters before procurement. Check for any recent product change notices or material categorization updates directly from the manufacturer's resources.

Bridge Rectifier Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1000 V blocking voltage and 3 A continuous current are required in a compact through-hole format. Ensure the application maintains the case temperature below 50 °C for full current rating or apply derating curves for higher temperatures. Verify that the surge current requirements do not exceed the specified IFSM limits.

Bridge Rectifier Part Context

The VS-KBPC110 belongs to the VS-KBPC1 series of single-phase rectifier bridges manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors. This series offers various voltage ratings ranging from 50 V to 1000 V while maintaining a consistent 3.0 A current rating and D-72 package style for standardized integration into electronic designs.

Bridge Rectifier Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same series include other voltage variants such as VS-KBPC108 (800 V) if lower voltage tolerance is acceptable. Cross-series comparisons should consider the VS-KBPC6 series for higher current applications, though package and thermal characteristics differ.
