Product details
Overview
GBP306 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3A standard recovery bridge rectifier with 600V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.05V max forward voltage at 1.5A, and 5µA max reverse leakage at 25°C. It features glass-passivated die construction, UL 94V-0 plastic package, and is rated for operation from –55°C to +150°C junction temperature - commonly used in AC/DC power supplies for industrial control panels and offline switch-mode power adapters.
For engineers reviewing the GBP306 datasheet, GBP306 pinout, GBP306 application, or GBP306 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600V VRRM rating, thermal resistance (RthJC = 9°C/W), surge current capability (90A IFSM @ 8.3ms), and compatibility with PCB-mounting in high-reliability, non-isolated rectification stages.
Technical Context
This device integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration, enabling AC-to-DC conversion without external interconnection. Its standard recovery characteristic (trr not specified but implied by "standard recovery" classification) supports line-frequency (50/60Hz) and low-frequency switching applications up to ~1kHz.
The GBP306 uses molded plastic encapsulation with matte tin-plated leads compliant with MIL-STD-202 Method 208, and its thermal design relies on case-to-heatsink conduction (RthJC = 9°C/W) - requiring external heatsinking for sustained 3A average current at elevated ambient temperatures.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage the bridge can block without breakdown; defines safe AC input voltage limit (e.g., ≤424V RMS). |
| IF(AV) | 3.0 A @ TC = +100°C with heatsink - Continuous DC output current capability when mounted on a 30mm × 30mm × 1mm Cu heatsink. |
| VF Max | 1.05 V @ IF = 1.5A, TJ = +25°C - Forward voltage drop per diode pair; determines conduction loss (~3.15W total at 3A full-wave). |
| IR Max | 5 µA @ VR = 600V, TJ = +25°C - Reverse leakage current; critical for low-power standby efficiency and high-impedance bias networks. |
| IFSM | 90 A @ 8.3ms half-sine, TJ = +25°C - Non-repetitive surge rating; withstands inrush currents from transformer-coupled or capacitive-input supplies. |
| RthJC | 9 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables thermal modeling when heatsink interface resistance is known. |
Pinout & Package
Package: GBP - 4-terminal molded plastic bridge rectifier with body polarity indicator (AC1, AC2, +, – terminals). Dimensions: 14.5 × 10.4 × 3.1 mm (L × W × H), weight ≈1.33 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AC1 | AC Input Terminal 1 | One leg of AC input; connects to primary winding or mains phase in single-phase bridge configuration. |
| AC2 | AC Input Terminal 2 | Second leg of AC input; completes full-wave rectification path with AC1. |
| + | Positive DC Output | Anode of internal upper diodes; delivers rectified positive voltage to filter capacitor or load. |
| – | Negative DC Output / Common Return | Cathode of internal lower diodes; serves as circuit ground reference and return path for DC load current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Enhances long-term reliability and moisture resistance vs. epoxy-passivated alternatives; improves stability under thermal cycling. |
| UL 94V-0 flammability rating | Meets safety standards for flame propagation in end equipment enclosures; required for industrial and medical power supplies. |
| Lead-free & halogen-free | Complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and Diodes' "Green" definition (<900ppm Br/Cl, <1000ppm Sb); supports eco-design compliance. |
| MIL-STD-202 solderable leads | Ensures robust wetting and joint integrity during wave or reflow soldering; reduces risk of cold solder joints in high-volume PCB assembly. |
Applications
| Industrial AC/DC Power Supplies | LED Driver Input Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rectifying 230VAC mains input in DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controller (PLC) power modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Full-wave bridge rectifier converting AC line to unregulated DC bus prior to buck or flyback regulation. Use Value: 600V VRRM provides 30% margin over 230VAC peak (325V), while 3A IF(AV) supports >60W output with adequate heatsinking. | Use Scenario: Input-stage rectification in constant-current LED drivers for street lighting operating from 120/277VAC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional current path generator feeding bulk capacitor and downstream DC-DC converter. Use Value: Low VF (1.05V) minimizes conduction loss in high-duty-cycle operation; glass passivation ensures longevity in thermally stressed outdoor environments. |
| Appliance Control Board Power | Offline SMPS Auxiliary Supply |
Use Scenario: Mains-powered control board in HVAC systems where space-constrained PCB layout requires compact, through-hole rectifiers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary AC-to-DC conversion element delivering low-noise DC for microcontroller, relay drivers, and sensor interfaces. Use Value: GBP package footprint (14.5 × 10.4 mm) fits standard through-hole spacing; UL recognition simplifies end-equipment safety certification. | Use Scenario: Auxiliary bias supply in 65W laptop adapter, powering PWM controller IC before main regulation loop starts. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standby rectifier providing VCC to controller during no-load or light-load conditions. Use Value: 5µA IR at 25°C limits no-load power draw; 90A IFSM handles startup surges from large X-capacitors without degradation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU6K (ON Semiconductor) | Same GBP package, 600V VRRM, 6A IF(AV), higher VF (1.1V), RthJC = 10°C/W | Higher current rating suits designs needing headroom; slightly higher conduction loss | Select when future-proofing for 5–6A loads or when derating margin is prioritized over minimal VF. |
| W04G (Vishay) | Same GBP package, 400V VRRM, 4A IF(AV), VF = 1.05V, RthJC = 9°C/W | Limited to ≤283VAC RMS; unsuitable for 230VAC global designs without redesign | Choose only for cost-sensitive 115VAC-only applications where 400V blocking suffices and 600V margin is unnecessary. |
Compared with GBU6K and W04G, GBP306 offers optimal balance of 600V blocking, 3A rating, and low VF for mainstream 230VAC industrial and appliance power supplies - avoiding overdesign penalty while ensuring safety margin and thermal manageability.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for GBP306?
The GBP306 has a specified operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. This allows reliable operation in harsh environments such as enclosed industrial enclosures or outdoor LED drivers, provided thermal design maintains TJ ≤150°C under worst-case load and ambient conditions.
Can GBP306 be used without a heatsink?
Yes, but only at reduced current: the datasheet specifies 1.8A IF(AV) without heatsink at TC = +100°C. For continuous 3A operation, a heatsink (e.g., 30mm × 30mm × 1mm Cu plate) is mandatory to maintain junction temperature within limits and avoid thermal runaway.
Is GBP306 compliant with automotive qualification standards?
No - GBP306 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. While Diodes offers automotive-grade variants in other families, this part is intended for industrial, commercial, and consumer applications. For automotive use, contact Diodes directly for PPAP-capable, IATF 16949-manufactured alternatives.
What does the marking "Green GBP306" indicate on the device body?
"Green" denotes Diodes' halogen- and antimony-free material definition: <900ppm bromine, <900ppm chlorine (≤1500ppm total Br+Cl), and <1000ppm antimony compounds - satisfying stringent environmental requirements beyond RoHS, including JEDEC JS709 and iNEMI guidelines.
