Product details
Overview
GBJ801-F from Diodes Incorporated is a standard recovery 8A bridge rectifier in GBJ package, rated for 100V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0V max forward voltage at 4A, and 5µA max reverse leakage at 25°C. It features glass-passivated die construction, 1500VRMS case dielectric strength, and 170A non-repetitive surge capability - deployed in AC/DC power supplies for industrial control panels.
For engineers reviewing the GBJ801-F datasheet, GBJ801-F pinout, GBJ801-F application, or GBJ801-F equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM margin for line-voltage transients, thermal resistance (1.6°C/W junction-to-case), IFSM rating for inrush handling, and through-hole mounting compatibility with #6 screw fastening.
Technical Context
This single-phase full-wave bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a monolithic GBJ molded plastic package. Its standard recovery characteristic (non-fast, non-ultrafast) suits 50/60Hz line-frequency rectification where low switching loss is prioritized over high-frequency EMI suppression.
Thermal performance relies on direct junction-to-case conduction via copper lead frame and requires mechanical mounting to an aluminum heatsink (100mm × 100mm × 1.6mm) to sustain 8.0A average output current at TC = +110°C. Reverse leakage rises to 500µA at +125°C, necessitating derating in high-ambient environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Withstands 100V repetitive reverse voltage; suitable for 70V RMS AC input (e.g., 100VAC nominal systems) |
| IO | 8.0 A @ TC = +110°C - Continuous DC output current when case temperature held at 110°C with heatsink |
| VF Max | 1.0 V @ IF = 4A - Forward drop impacts conduction loss: ~4W dissipation at 4A, requiring thermal management |
| IFSM | 170 A (8.3ms half-sine) - Handles cold-start inrush surges in transformer-coupled supplies |
| IR Max | 5 µA @ 25°C / 500 µA @ 125°C - Low leakage preserves efficiency in standby; critical for high-impedance bias networks |
| RθJC | 1.6 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance defines minimum heatsink requirement for thermal design |
| VB | 100 V - Breakdown voltage matches VRRM rating; confirms robustness against transient overvoltage |
Pinout & Package
GBJ801-F uses a 4-terminal GBJ through-hole package with standardized AC–AC–+–– pinout. The molded body marks polarity; terminals are tin-plated, lead-free, and solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ~ (AC1) | AC Input Terminal 1 | One leg of AC input; connects to transformer secondary or AC line |
| ~ (AC2) | AC Input Terminal 2 | Second leg of AC input; completes full-wave bridge input path |
| + | Positive DC Output | Full-wave rectified positive rail; feeds bulk capacitor or regulator input |
| – | Negative DC Output / Return | Common return path; referenced to system ground or negative rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Enhances long-term reliability under humidity and thermal cycling; prevents surface leakage degradation |
| 1500VRMS dielectric strength | Ensures isolation between AC inputs and DC outputs meets safety standards (e.g., UL 62368-1) |
| 170A surge rating | Supports repeated cold-start events without degradation in motor drive or lighting ballast applications |
| UL Recognized (E95060) | Validates compliance for end-equipment safety certification without additional component-level testing |
| RoHS 3 compliant / Halogen-free | Meets environmental regulations for industrial and automotive-tier supply chains requiring material declarations |
Applications
| Industrial AC/DC Power Supply | LED Driver Input Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Converts 100VAC mains to unregulated DC for switch-mode power supply front-end in PLC modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Full-wave bridge rectifier providing polarity-insensitive AC-to-DC conversion. Use Value: 8A IO rating supports 60W+ output; 100V VRRM provides 30% margin above 100VAC peak (141V), reducing failure risk during brownouts. | Use Scenario: Rectifies AC from electronic transformer in commercial LED troffer fixtures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side rectification before bulk capacitor and constant-current controller. Use Value: Low 5µA IR at 25°C minimizes no-load power loss; glass passivation ensures stable operation in humid ceiling environments. |
| Motor Control Auxiliary Supply | Test Equipment AC Adapter |
Use Scenario: Powers isolated gate driver and logic circuitry from auxiliary winding of main inverter transformer. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Isolated DC supply generation with reinforced insulation barrier. Use Value: 1500VRMS dielectric strength enables safe separation between motor power domain and control domain per IEC 61800-5-1. | Use Scenario: Embedded in benchtop multimeter AC adapter for lab-grade accuracy and safety. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Mains-input rectification stage meeting double-insulation requirements. Use Value: UL Recognition (E95060) eliminates need for separate safety agency approval of the adapter subassembly. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU8K (ON Semiconductor) | Same 8A/100V rating; GBU package (smaller footprint, lower IFSM = 125A) | Limited surge margin; unsuitable for high-inrush transformer-coupled designs | Select only if board space is constrained and inrush is limited to ≤100A |
| KBP210 (Shindengen) | 100V/2A rating; smaller GBJ-like package but lower current capacity | Requires parallel configuration for 8A loads; increases layout complexity and thermal coupling risk | Not recommended for direct replacement; use only in low-power auxiliary rails |
Compared with GBU8K and KBP210, GBJ801-F delivers superior surge resilience (170A vs. 125A/-) and verified 8A thermal performance in its native package - making it the preferred choice for industrial AC/DC front-ends where reliability under transient stress is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for GBJ801-F?
The junction temperature range is –55°C to +150°C, and the device sustains 8.0A average forward current only when case temperature is maintained at ≤+110°C using a specified aluminum heatsink. Exceeding +110°C case temperature requires current derating per the thermal curve in DS21217.
Can GBJ801-F be used in surface-mount designs?
No - GBJ801-F is a through-hole device with leads designed for #6 screw mounting and manual or wave soldering. It lacks SMD-compatible terminations or land patterns. For SMT alternatives, consider Diodes' GBJ-S series or evaluate GBU packages with compatible footprints.
Is GBJ801-F qualified for automotive applications?
GBJ801-F is not AEC-Q101 qualified. While RoHS-compliant and manufactured in IATF 16949 facilities, it lacks automotive-specific qualification testing. Diodes offers AEC-Q101 variants (e.g., GBJ801Q) - contact their automotive team for PPAP-capable versions.
How does the 1.6°C/W thermal resistance impact PCB layout?
This RθJC value assumes mounting on a 100mm × 100mm × 1.6mm aluminum plate. Layout must provide low-thermal-resistance mechanical interface: flat mounting surface, torque ≤5.0 in-lbs, and thermal interface material if ambient exceeds 60°C. Copper pour alone is insufficient to achieve rated IO.
