Product details
Overview
GBPC25005W from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 25A, 50V standard bridge rectifier in GBPC-W wire-structure package, featuring glass-passivated junctions, 1.5°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and typical reverse leakage <0.2μA at 25°C - used in AC/DC converters and switching-mode power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the GBPC25005W datasheet, GBPC25005W pinout, GBPC25005W application, or GBPC25005W equivalent, key selection criteria include peak repetitive reverse voltage (50 V), average forward current (25 A), surge capability (300 A @ 8.3 ms), thermal performance, and GBPC-W mechanical mounting configuration.
Technical Context
This quad-configuration bridge rectifier integrates four diodes in a single molded package with integral heatsink for low thermal resistance. It operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and supports high-surge applications due to its 300 A non-repetitive forward surge rating.
The GBPC25005W uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 1A whisker testing. Its UL Recognized status (E-326243) and RoHS compliance confirm suitability for industrial-grade power conversion systems requiring safety and environmental certification.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay GBPC2505 | Same 25 A / 50 V rating, GBPC package, but uses GBPC-M (terminal cathode parallel to anode) instead of GBPC-W wire structure | Requires different PCB footprint and mounting orientation; identical electrical performance | Select when existing layout uses GBPC-M mechanical configuration |
| ON Semiconductor GBPC2505W | Identical GBPC-W package, 25 A / 50 V rating, and thermal specs; differs in marking format and minor process details | Drop-in mechanical and electrical replacement; qualified for same industrial temperature range | Preferred for dual-sourcing where Taiwan Semiconductor supply continuity is constrained |
Compared with GBPC25005W, Vishay GBPC2505 requires board layout adaptation due to terminal orientation, while ON Semiconductor GBPC2505W offers true mechanical and electrical equivalence - making it suitable for immediate substitution without design change.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for GBPC25005W?
The GBPC25005W has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet M2211. This allows operation in high-ambient industrial environments when properly heatsinked. Thermal derating curves show usable current decreases above 75°C case temperature. GBPC25005W must be mounted with ≤20 in-lbs torque to avoid internal damage that could compromise this rating.
Does GBPC25005W have UL recognition?
Yes, GBPC25005W is UL Recognized under file #E-326243, confirming compliance with UL 60950-1 and UL 62368-1 for use in end-equipment safety certification. This applies to the entire GBPC15/25/35 series including GBPC25005W in GBPC-W configuration. The recognition covers flammability (UL 94V-0 molding compound) and construction integrity under normal and fault conditions.
What is the forward voltage drop specification for GBPC25005W?
GBPC25005W specifies a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.1 V per diode at IF = 12.5 A and TJ = 25°C, measured under pulse conditions (PW = 0.3 ms). This value reflects conduction loss in one diode leg; total bridge drop is ~2.2 V at full load. VF increases with junction temperature and current - actual system-level drop must account for thermal rise and waveform duty cycle.
How does the GBPC-W package differ from GBPC-M and standard GBPC?
The GBPC-W package features wire-structure terminals, where leads extend radially from the molded body for through-hole mounting with axial wire bending. In contrast, GBPC-M has terminals oriented parallel to each other (cathode parallel to anode), and standard GBPC uses a flat-tab configuration. GBPC25005W's GBPC-W form factor enables compact PCB layouts with vertical lead routing and simplified automated insertion.
Is GBPC25005W RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, GBPC25005W is RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU and contains no lead in the die attach, bond wires, or terminal plating. The matte tin plating meets J-STD-002 solderability requirements and JESD201 Class 1A whisker resistance. Taiwan Semiconductor confirms full material declarations and substance compliance documentation are available upon request for GBPC25005W.
