Product details
Overview
GBJ1502 from Diodes Incorporated is a 200V, 15A standard recovery bridge rectifier in GBJ package, featuring 1.05V max forward voltage at 7.5A, 10µA max reverse leakage at 25°C, and 240A peak surge rating-used for AC/DC conversion in industrial power supplies and motor drive front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the GBJ1502 datasheet, GBJ1502 pinout, GBJ1502 application, or GBJ1502 equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM=200V, IF(AV)=15A with heatsink, thermal resistance RθJC=0.8°C/W, glass-passivated die construction, and UL recognition under file E95060.
Technical Context
This single-phase full-wave bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a monolithic GBJ molded plastic package with through-hole mounting. It operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and delivers 15A average output current when mounted on a 300mm × 300mm × 1.6mm copper heatsink.
The device exhibits 60pF typical junction capacitance at 1MHz/4V reverse bias and achieves 1500VRMS dielectric strength between case and terminals. Its standard recovery characteristic (trr not specified, consistent with non-fast-recovery classification) suits line-frequency rectification rather than high-frequency switching.
Key Specifications

| IF(AV) | 15 A - Average rectified output current with heatsink at TJ = +150°C |
| VF Max | 1.05 V @ 7.5A - Forward voltage drop per diode leg, directly impacting conduction loss in power stage |
| IR Max | 10 µA @ 25°C - Reverse leakage current per diode, critical for low-power standby efficiency |
| IFSM | 240 A - Non-repetitive peak forward surge current (8.3ms half-sine), defines inrush robustness |
| RθJC | 0.8 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to case, enables thermal design with external heatsink |
| VB | 200 V - Breakdown voltage confirmed at IR = 10µA, TJ = +25°C, matching VRRM rating |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU15K-E3/51 (Vishay) | Same GBU package, 200V VRRM, but 1.1V VF max @ 7.5A and 1500VRMS isolation | Lower surge rating (175A vs. 240A); less suitable for high-inrush motor controls | Select when footprint compatibility with GBU socket is required and surge margin is secondary |
| KBP202G (ON Semiconductor) | KBPC package, 200V VRRM, 1.1V VF max @ 7.5A, 200A IFSM, RoHS-compliant | Smaller thermal resistance (RθJC = 0.7°C/W) but lower surge capability and no UL listing | Prefer where PCB space is constrained and UL recognition is not mandated by end-equipment standards |
Compared with GBU15K-E3/51 and KBP202G, GBJ1502 offers superior surge robustness (240A), certified UL recognition, and optimized thermal path for heatsink mounting-making it preferred for industrial-grade power conversion where reliability and regulatory compliance are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for GBJ1502?
The GBJ1502 has a specified operating junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. This rating is validated per JEDEC standards and enables use in high-ambient environments such as enclosed industrial cabinets or under-hood automotive auxiliary systems when properly heatsinked.
Does GBJ1502 require a heatsink for 15A continuous operation?
Yes-15A average current rating is specified only with a 300mm × 300mm × 1.6mm copper plate heatsink. Without forced or enhanced cooling, derating is required; at 25°C ambient and no heatsink, the usable current drops to approximately 4.5A based on RθJA ≈ 25°C/W and TJ(max) = 150°C.
Is GBJ1502 suitable for high-frequency switching applications?
No-GBJ1502 is a standard recovery bridge rectifier with no specified reverse recovery time (trr). Its internal diode structure is optimized for 50/60Hz line-frequency rectification, not high-frequency (>20kHz) operation. For switch-mode applications, fast- or ultrafast-recovery alternatives like GBU15J or DF08S are recommended.
How is polarity marked on the GBJ1502 package?
Polarity is molded directly onto the plastic body: the "+" symbol identifies the positive DC output terminal, and the "–" symbol marks the negative DC output terminal. AC input terminals are unmarked but located diagonally opposite each other-confirmed by the GBJ outline drawing showing AC1 and AC2 adjacent to the flat edge side of the package.
