Product details
Overview
GBJ2010-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 20A glass passivated single-phase bridge rectifier with 1000V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 700V RMS reverse voltage, and 1.05V forward voltage per element at 10A. It features through-hole mounting for #6 screw, UL 94V-0 molded plastic case, and is rated for operation from −55°C to +150°C. It is designed for high-reliability AC/DC conversion in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the GBJ2010-F datasheet, GBJ2010-F pinout, GBJ2010-F application, or GBJ2010-F equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1000V blocking capability, 240A non-repetitive surge rating, thermal resistance of 0.8°C/W, RoHS-compliant lead-free plating, and suitability for resistive/inductive loads without heatsink up to 15A at TC = 110°C.
Technical Context
This bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a single GBJ package with glass-passivated junctions for enhanced reliability under transient overvoltage and thermal stress. Its 1500VRMS dielectric strength between case and terminals ensures safety isolation in mains-connected equipment.
The device operates with fixed full-wave rectification topology, requiring no external control logic. Its 60pF typical capacitance per element minimizes high-frequency noise coupling, while the 240A²s I²t rating supports robust surge immunity against 8.3ms half-sine surges common in AC line applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Maximum peak reverse voltage the device blocks without breakdown; defines maximum AC input voltage compatibility (e.g., 700V RMS line). |
| IO @ TC = 110°C | 20 A - Continuous average forward current deliverable with case temperature held at 110°C; determines usable output power in unheatsinked designs. |
| IFSM (8.3 ms) | 240 A - Peak surge current tolerance; enables survival during cold-start inrush into capacitive-input supplies. |
| VFM @ IF = 10A | 1.05 V - Forward voltage drop per diode element; directly impacts conduction loss (2.1V total bridge drop at 10A DC output). |
| RJC | 0.8 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; sets minimum heatsink requirement for thermal management at full load. |
| IR @ TC = 125°C | 500 µA - Maximum reverse leakage at elevated temperature; critical for low-power standby circuits and high-impedance sensing nodes. |
| CT per element | 60 pF - Junction capacitance measured at 1 MHz and 4V reverse bias; affects EMI filtering design and high-frequency rectifier ringing. |
Pinout & Package
GBJ2010-F uses the standard GBJ through-hole package: 4-pin, single-in-line (SIL) configuration with center-tab cathode and outer anodes. Dimensions: 30.0 × 20.0 × 17.5 mm (L × W × H), with #6 screw mounting hole centered on the metal tab.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AC1 | Input Anode | One AC input terminal; connects to one leg of transformer secondary or AC line. |
| AC2 | Input Anode | Second AC input terminal; completes full-wave bridge input path. |
| + (Tab) | Output Cathode | Metal tab is electrically connected to cathodes of both upper diodes; serves as positive DC output and primary heat dissipation path. |
| – | Output Anode | Negative DC output terminal; internally connected to anodes of both lower diodes. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass-passivated die construction | Enables stable reverse characteristics and reduced IR drift over temperature and time versus epoxy-passivated alternatives. |
| UL 94V-0 molded plastic case | Meets flammability safety requirements for enclosed industrial and medical power enclosures without additional potting. |
| 1500VRMS case-to-terminal isolation | Supports reinforced insulation in Class II AC/DC converters, eliminating need for creepage/clearance adders in PCB layout. |
| Lead-free (Sn) plating, RoHS compliant | Compatible with Pb-free reflow and wave soldering processes; satisfies EU Directive 2011/65/EU Annex III exemptions. |
| 240A IFSM rating | Withstands 120Hz line-frequency surge events (e.g., lightning-induced transients) without degradation in 230VAC systems. |
Applications
| Industrial AC/DC Power Supply | Motor Drive Input Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 3-phase rectified input feeding a 1.5kW PWM inverter stage in HVAC blower control.

Use Value: Low 60pF capacitance minimizes switching noise injection into analog control circuitry; UL 94V-0 case eliminates fire-risk concerns in enclosed cabinet designs. |
| LED Streetlight Driver | Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) |
Use Scenario: Mains-powered outdoor LED driver operating in ambient temperatures from −40°C to +85°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input bridge rectifier feeding PFC controller and flyback converter; must survive repeated cold starts and lightning surges. Use Value: −55°C to +150°C operating range ensures reliability in unventilated pole-mounted enclosures; 240A IFSM withstands induced surges per IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3. | Use Scenario: Line-interactive UPS with automatic voltage regulation and battery backup for network infrastructure. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-role rectifier: AC-to-DC conversion during normal operation and battery charging path during utility outage. Use Value: 500µA IR at 125°C prevents excessive battery drain during extended float-charge mode; glass passivation ensures long-term leakage stability over 10-year service life. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay GBU10K | Same 1000V VRRM, 20A IO, but TO-220AC package with isolated tab; RJC = 1.0°C/W; higher IR (1mA @ 125°C). | Requires insulating washer for tab mounting; less suitable for direct-chassis thermal coupling. | Select when electrical isolation of cathode tab is required or when footprint compatibility with TO-220 layouts is prioritized. |
| ON Semiconductor GBPC3510 | Higher 35A IO rating, same 1000V VRRM, but larger GBPC package (40mm × 25mm); RJC = 0.6°C/W; CT = 80pF. | Better thermal performance but occupies 35% more PCB area; higher capacitance increases EMI risk in noise-sensitive designs. | Select when sustained >20A load or lower thermal resistance is mandatory, and board space permits larger footprint. |
Compared with GBU10K, GBJ2010-F offers superior thermal coupling via its screw-mount tab and lower leakage, making it preferred for compact, thermally constrained industrial supplies; versus GBPC3510, it trades peak current headroom for smaller size and lower parasitic capacitance-ideal where EMI and board real estate are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?
The GBJ2010-F is rated for continuous operation at IO = 20A only when the case temperature (TC) is maintained at ≤110°C, as specified in the absolute maximum ratings table. Exceeding this temperature reduces current handling capacity linearly per the derating curve in Figure 1-e.g., at TC = 130°C, maximum IO drops to approximately 14A without heatsink.
Can GBJ2010-F be used in capacitive-input filter configurations?
Yes, but with mandatory 20% current derating per the datasheet note. In capacitive-input applications, peak charging currents increase significantly, raising thermal stress and reducing effective lifetime. For a nominal 20A rating, limit continuous output to 16A when feeding a bulk electrolytic capacitor directly after the bridge.
Is the metal tab electrically isolated from the leads?
No-the metal tab is internally connected to the cathode (+) output terminal and is not electrically isolated from the + pin. It must be treated as a live, high-current node. When mounting to a conductive chassis, ensure the tab is either directly bonded to system ground (if cathode-referenced design) or insulated using a UL-rated thermal pad and shoulder washer to prevent short circuits.
Does GBJ2010-F meet any specific safety certifications beyond UL 94V-0?
Yes-GBJ2010-F is UL Recognized under File Number E94661, confirming compliance with UL 60747-4 for semiconductor devices. It also meets IEC/EN 62368-1 requirements for AC/DC power conversion components when used within validated end-equipment designs, and carries full RoHS 2011/65/EU compliance documentation including Annex III exemptions for glass and high-temp solder.
