Product details
Overview
GBPC1502 from Diodes Incorporated is a 15A glass passivated single-phase bridge rectifier with 200V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.1V forward voltage at 7.5A per diode, and 300A non-repetitive surge rating - used in AC/DC power supplies for industrial motor drives and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the GBPC1502 datasheet, GBPC1502 pinout, GBPC1502 application, or GBPC1502 equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal resistance (5.0°C/W), case-to-terminal isolation (1500V), and UL recognition (E94661) for safety-critical power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a single molded plastic package with internally mounted heatsink, enabling direct mounting via #10 screw to external heat sinks. Its glass passivated die construction ensures low reverse leakage (5.0μA @ 25°C) and stable operation up to +150°C junction temperature.
The device operates under single-phase, half-wave 60Hz conditions with resistive or inductive loads; capacitive loads require 20% current derating. Thermal performance is specified with junction-to-case resistance of 5.0°C/W when mounted on a 220×220×50mm aluminum plate heatsink.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - maximum peak reverse voltage the bridge can block without breakdown |
| IO @ TC=70°C | 15 A - average rectified output current sustainable at 70°C case temperature |
| IFSM | 300 A - non-repetitive surge current capability for 8.3ms half-sine wave |
| VFM @ IF=7.5A | 1.1 V - forward voltage drop per diode element, defining conduction loss at rated half-load |
| RθJC | 5.0 °C/W - thermal resistance from junction to case, critical for heatsink sizing |
| IR @ 25°C | 5.0 μA - reverse leakage current per element at rated DC blocking voltage |
| Case Isolation | 1500 V - dielectric strength between metal base and terminals for safety compliance |
Pinout & Package
Package: GBPC - molded plastic case with integral heatsink, UL 94V-0 rated, through-hole mountable using #10 screw (hole diameter 5.08–5.59 mm), weight ≈20 g.

Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: AC mains rectification feeding DC bus for IGBT inverter stages in 3-phase motor controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bridge rectifier providing unregulated DC input to bulk capacitor and downstream switching stage. Use Value: 300A surge rating handles inrush during motor startup; 5.0°C/W RθJC supports forced-air or plate heatsinking in compact enclosures. | Use Scenario: Line-powered rectification in double-conversion UPS systems with battery backup. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary AC/DC conversion stage delivering stable DC to inverter and charger circuits. Use Value: 1500V case-to-terminal isolation meets reinforced insulation requirements for Class I safety; UL listing simplifies system-level certification. |
| AC/DC Power Supplies | Welding Equipment |
Use Scenario: High-current front-end rectification in open-frame 1–3 kW industrial power supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Full-wave bridge converting 115/230VAC input to pulsating DC before filtering and regulation. Use Value: 15A average current rating enables compact design vs discrete diode solutions; glass passivation prevents parametric drift in dusty factory settings. | Use Scenario: Rectifying transformer secondary output in stick/TIG welding power sources. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-surge-capable bridge handling intermittent 100–300A arc initiation pulses. Use Value: 300A IFSM withstands repeated short-duration welding surges without degradation; thermally robust package sustains >100°C ambient in enclosed welders. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU15K (ON Semiconductor) | Same 15A/200V rating but GBU package (lower thermal resistance: 4.0°C/W); no UL recognition | Preferred where higher thermal efficiency is prioritized over safety certification | Select when heatsink space is constrained and UL listing is not required |
| KBP202 (Comchip) | 200V VRRM, 2A average current - significantly lower current rating; TO-220 package | Suitable only for low-power auxiliary supplies, not main DC bus rectification | Use only for signal-level or bias supply rectification, not primary power conversion |
Compared with GBPC1502, GBU15K offers better thermal performance but lacks UL safety approval, while KBP202 is underspecified for 15A applications - making GBPC1502 the optimal choice for certified, high-current industrial rectification.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for GBPC1502?
The GBPC1502 has a junction temperature range of −65°C to +150°C and a storage temperature limit of the same. Its derated average current drops to zero at 150°C case temperature, per Figure 1 in the datasheet. Reliable continuous operation requires maintaining TC ≤ 70°C for full 15A rating.
Can GBPC1502 be mounted directly to a metal chassis without insulation?
Yes - the GBPC package features electrically isolated metal base with 1500V case-to-terminal isolation voltage. This allows direct screw-mounting to grounded chassis or heatsinks without thermal pads or insulators, provided mounting torque does not exceed 8.0 inch-pounds.
Is GBPC1502 suitable for capacitive-input filter applications?
No - the datasheet explicitly states that for capacitive loads, the average output current must be derated by 20%. Using GBPC1502 at full 15A with a large bulk capacitor risks overheating due to high peak currents; it is optimized for resistive/inductive loads per standard rectifier testing conditions.
Does GBPC1502 meet RoHS and lead-free requirements?
Yes - GBPC1502 carries a lead-free finish and is RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2002/95/EC, with exemptions applied as noted in the datasheet. Compliance applies to date codes 0514 and later, verified by Diodes Incorporated's material declarations and test reports.
