Product details
Overview
GBJ601-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 6A standard recovery bridge rectifier with 100V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0V forward voltage (VF) at 3A, 5µA reverse leakage current at 25°C, and 170A peak surge rating - used in AC/DC power supplies for industrial control panels requiring robust mains input rectification.
For engineers reviewing the GBJ601-F datasheet, GBJ601-F pinout, GBJ601-F application, or GBJ601-F equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM margin for 115VAC line surges, thermal resistance (1.8°C/W junction-to-case), through-hole mounting compatibility with #6 screw, and UL recognition for safety-critical power entry designs.
Technical Context
This single-phase full-wave bridge rectifier integrates four standard recovery diodes in a molded GBJ package with glass-passivated junctions. It delivers 6.0A average rectified output current when mounted on a 75×75×1.6mm aluminum heatsink and sustains 1500VRMS dielectric strength between case and terminals.
The device operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and exhibits 55pF typical junction capacitance at 1MHz/4V reverse bias. Its I²t fusing rating of 120A²s supports coordination with upstream 10A slow-blow fuses in Class 2 power supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Withstands 100V repetitive reverse voltage, suitable for 115VAC input with 2× safety margin |
| IF(AV) | 6.0 A - Sustains continuous 6A DC output current with heatsink at TJ = +150°C |
| VF @ 3A | 1.0 V max - Limits conduction loss to ≤3W per half-cycle in full-wave configuration |
| IR @ 25°C | 5 µA max - Ensures minimal standby power loss in offline SMPS standby circuits |
| IFSM | 170 A peak - Survives cold-start inrush surges from uncharged bulk capacitors |
| RθJC | 1.8 °C/W - Enables thermal design with low-cost aluminum plate heatsinks |
| VB | 100 V - Breakdown voltage matches VRRM rating, verified at IR = 5µA |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU6K-E3/54 (Vishay) | Same 6A/100V rating but GBU package (smaller footprint, lower IFSM = 150A) | Limited surge margin in high-inrush motor drives; requires tighter layout for creepage | Prefer for space-constrained PCBs where 150A surge suffices and UL recognition is not mandatory |
| W04G (ON Semiconductor) | Lower VF (0.95V typ) but higher IR (10µA) and no UL listing | Higher standby loss in always-on HVAC controllers; lacks safety certification for Class II designs | Choose only for cost-sensitive consumer products without regulatory certification requirements |
Compared with GBU6K-E3/54 and W04G, GBJ601-F uniquely combines UL E95060 recognition, 170A surge capability, and 1500VRMS isolation - making it the preferred choice for industrial and commercial power entry modules requiring safety agency approval and field reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum heatsink temperature allowed for continuous 6A operation?
At IF(AV) = 6.0A and TJ = +150°C, the case temperature must not exceed +105°C when mounted on a 75×75×1.6mm aluminum heatsink, based on RθJC = 1.8°C/W and ambient derating curves in DS21216 Rev. 8–2. Exceeding this limit risks thermal runaway and premature failure.
Can GBJ601-F replace GBJ6005-F in existing designs?
No - GBJ6005-F has 50V VRRM while GBJ601-F is rated for 100V. Substitution is only safe if the original design's peak reverse voltage remains below 50V; otherwise, overstress may cause catastrophic failure during line transients or brownouts.
Is the GBJ601-F compliant with AEC-Q101 for automotive use?
No - the datasheet explicitly states automotive qualification requires separate AEC-Q101 testing and PPAP submission. GBJ601-F is not pre-qualified; customers needing automotive-grade parts must contact Diodes directly for qualified alternatives like the ABS210Q.
What is the recommended torque for the mounting screw?
The mechanical specification mandates a maximum mounting torque of 5.0 in-lbs for the #6 screw. Exceeding this value risks cracking the molded GBJ package or deforming internal wire bonds, leading to intermittent open-circuit failures during vibration or thermal cycling.
