Product details
Overview
GBJ25L08 from Diodes Incorporated is a 25A, 800V glass-passivated single-phase bridge rectifier with low forward voltage (0.9 V max at 12.5 A), 10 µA max reverse leakage at 800 V, and 320 A peak surge current capability. It is used in AC/DC power supplies for industrial motor drives, UPS systems, and welding equipment where high reliability and thermal robustness are required.
For engineers reviewing the GBJ25L08 datasheet, GBJ25L08 pinout, GBJ25L08 application, or GBJ25L08 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 800 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 25 A average forward current rating at 25°C, low VF for reduced conduction loss, UL recognition (E95060), and compatibility with standard PCB mounting and heatsink interfaces.
Technical Context
The GBJ25L08 integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration with glass-passivated junctions for enhanced moisture and contamination resistance. Its thermal design supports operation from –40°C to +150°C junction temperature, with RθJC = 0.8°C/W when mounted on a specified fin-type heatsink.
It delivers stable rectification under high-surge conditions (320 A, 8.3 ms half-sine) and exhibits low junction capacitance (250 pF at 4 V, 1 MHz), minimizing switching noise in line-frequency applications. The device is RoHS-compliant, halogen- and antimony-free, and rated for automotive-grade change control upon request.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 800 V - Withstands up to 800 V repetitive reverse voltage without breakdown, suitable for 400 VAC input systems with safety margin. |
| IF(AV) | 25 A - Sustains 25 A average forward current at 25°C case temperature; derates to ~12 A at 100°C case per Figure 1. |
| VF Max | 0.9 V @ 12.5 A - Low conduction loss reduces heat generation and improves efficiency in high-current linear rectification. |
| IR Max | 10 µA @ 800 V - Minimal reverse leakage ensures stable DC output under high-voltage hold-off conditions. |
| IFSM | 320 A - Handles short-duration inrush/surge currents common during power-up or fault events in industrial power supplies. |
| RθJC | 0.8 °C/W - Enables effective thermal transfer to heatsink, supporting continuous 25 A operation with proper thermal management. |

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for GBJ25L08?
The GBJ25L08 has a specified operating junction temperature range of –40°C to +150°C. This allows reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed motor drive cabinets or welding power supplies, provided thermal resistance to heatsink (RθJC = 0.8°C/W) and ambient conditions remain within derating curves (Figures 1–2).
Is GBJ25L08 suitable for surface-mount assembly?
No - the GBJ25L08 uses a through-hole GBJ package with four axial leads designed for wave soldering or hand-soldering onto PCBs. It is not a surface-mount device; its mechanical outline and lead spacing (see datasheet page 4) require plated-through holes and adequate pad clearance for thermal relief.
Does GBJ25L08 meet AEC-Q101 for automotive use?
GBJ25L08 is not pre-qualified to AEC-Q101. However, Diodes Incorporated states that automotive-grade versions with AEC-Q101 qualification, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing are available upon request - contact Diodes or an authorized representative for qualified part numbers and change-control documentation.
How does the GBJ25L08 compare thermally with and without a heatsink?
Without a heatsink, RθJA is 23.2°C/W, limiting continuous current to ~5 A at 25°C ambient. With the specified 170 mm × 170 mm × 45 mm fin-type heatsink, RθJA drops to 3.5°C/W, enabling full 25 A operation at ≤75°C ambient - a >4× improvement in thermal performance essential for industrial power density.
