Product details
Overview
GBPC2501 from Diodes Incorporated is a 25A glass passivated single-phase bridge rectifier with 100V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.1V forward voltage at 12.5A per diode, 300A non-repetitive surge rating, and metal-base thermal design for heatsink mounting in AC/DC power supplies for industrial motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the GBPC2501 datasheet, GBPC2501 pinout, GBPC2501 application, or GBPC2501 equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM derating for capacitive loads, thermal resistance (1.3°C/W junction-to-case), case isolation voltage (1500V), and through-hole #10 screw mounting compatibility.
Technical Context
This bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a single molded plastic package with internal heatsink, configured as a full-wave single-phase AC input to DC output converter. It operates under resistive/inductive loads at 60Hz with mandatory 20% current derating for capacitive loads.
Thermal performance relies on direct metal-base contact to an external heatsink (e.g., 220×220×50mm aluminum plate), enabling sustained 25A average output at TC = 60°C. Junction temperature range spans −65°C to +150°C with 5μA typical reverse leakage at 25°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum peak reverse voltage per diode leg before breakdown; defines safe AC input voltage ceiling (e.g., ≤70V RMS). |
| IO @ TC=60°C | 25 A - Continuous DC output current achievable with case temperature held at 60°C using heatsink mounting. |
| VFM @ IF=12.5A | 1.1 V - Forward voltage drop per diode at half-rated current; determines conduction loss (2.2V total bridge drop at 12.5A DC output). |
| IFSM | 300 A - Single half-sine surge capacity (8.3ms); supports inrush limiting in transformer-coupled supplies. |
| RθJC | 1.3 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to case; requires ≥1.3°C/W heatsink interface to maintain Tj ≤150°C at full load. |
| Isolation Voltage | 1500 V - Dielectric strength between case and terminals; satisfies reinforced insulation requirements for Class I equipment. |
| CT @ 1MHz | 300 pF - Total junction capacitance per diode; impacts EMI filtering design and high-frequency switching noise coupling. |
Pinout & Package
Package: GBPC (glass passivated bridge, faston terminals), molded plastic case with integrated metal baseplate for heatsink mounting; UL 94V-0 rated; weight ≈20 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AC1 / AC2 | AC Input Terminals | Accept single-phase AC line inputs; symmetrical connection-no polarity sensitivity for AC side. |
| + | Positive DC Output | Full-wave rectified anode-side output node; connects to bulk capacitor positive rail or downstream regulator input. |
| − | Negative DC Output | Full-wave rectified cathode-side return node; serves as system ground reference for DC bus. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die construction | Enables stable reverse leakage (<5μA at 25°C) and long-term reliability under humidity and thermal cycling. |
| Metal base with internal heatsink | Direct thermal path from die to mounting surface reduces RθJC to 1.3°C/W-critical for 25A continuous operation. |
| 1500V case-to-terminal isolation | Meets reinforced insulation requirements for mains-connected equipment without additional creepage/clearance barriers. |
| 300A surge rating (8.3ms) | Withstands transformer inrush and motor startup surges without degradation in industrial AC drive front-ends. |
Applications
| Industrial AC Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rectifying 3-phase-derived single-phase AC feed to DC bus in variable frequency drives for conveyor systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Full-wave bridge rectifier converting AC line to unregulated DC; no timing function. Use Value: 25A IO and 300A IFSM support motor startup surges; metal base ensures thermal stability during extended 40°C ambient operation. | Use Scenario: Input stage rectification in online double-conversion UPS systems with battery backup. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary AC/DC conversion element; provides isolated DC bus for inverter and charger stages. Use Value: 1500V isolation enables safe integration into 230VAC-input systems meeting IEC 62368-1; low VFM minimizes conduction loss during utility-powered mode. |
| Industrial Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) | Welding Power Supplies |
Use Scenario: On-board AC/DC power conversion for PLC CPU and I/O module power rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Mains-fed bridge rectifier feeding linear or switching regulators; no signal conditioning role. Use Value: UL recognition (E94661) and RoHS compliance support global industrial certification; 1.1V VFM limits heat generation in compact enclosures. | Use Scenario: High-current rectification in arc welding inverters requiring rapid duty-cycle transitions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bulk DC generation stage prior to high-frequency inverter stage; handles intermittent 100% load peaks. Use Value: 300A surge rating accommodates repetitive short-duration weld pulses; low IR (<5μA) prevents leakage-induced control instability. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBJ2501 | Same 100V VRRM and 25A IO, but GBJ package uses insulated plastic body (no metal base); RθJC = 2.0°C/W. | Requires larger heatsink or forced air cooling to match GBPC2501 thermal performance; suitable where isolation > thermal density is prioritized. | Select GBJ2501 only when case isolation voltage is secondary to PCB-mount flexibility and no metal heatsink interface is available. |
| KBPC2501 | Identical electrical specs and GBPC footprint, but manufactured by ON Semiconductor; same 1.3°C/W RθJC and 1500V isolation. | Drop-in replacement with identical mechanical and thermal behavior; validated for same industrial motor drive designs. | Choose KBPC2501 for dual-sourcing assurance in long-lifecycle industrial programs where supply continuity is critical. |
Compared with GBPC2501, GBJ2501 trades thermal efficiency for enhanced electrical isolation and surface-mount adaptability, while KBPC2501 delivers identical performance with second-source manufacturing resilience-enabling risk-mitigated BOM planning without design requalification.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous 25A operation?
The datasheet specifies 25A average output current at TC = 60°C. Exceeding this temperature requires linear derating per Figure 1: at TC = 80°C, IO drops to ~18A; at TC = 100°C, it falls to ~12A. Sustained operation above 60°C without derating risks thermal runaway due to rising reverse leakage and reduced surge margin.
Can GBPC2501 be used with capacitive input filters without derating?
No-capacitive loads require 20% current derating per the datasheet. At full 25A rating, the device assumes resistive or inductive loading. With capacitive input (e.g., bulk capacitor after rectifier), maximum continuous current must be limited to 20A to prevent excessive peak currents that exceed IFSM endurance and accelerate junction degradation.
Is GBPC2501 compliant with RoHS and REACH regulations?
Yes-GBPC2501 features lead-free finish and is RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS 2), including exemptions for glass and high-temperature solder per Annexes V and VI. REACH SVHC screening confirms absence of substances above threshold concentrations per Article 33 reporting requirements.
Does GBPC2501 support surface-mount assembly?
No-GBPC2501 uses through-hole faston terminals designed for #10 screw mounting to a heatsink. It lacks gull-wing or J-lead geometry required for reflow soldering. The GBPC-W variant offers wire leads but still requires mechanical attachment-not SMT-compatible. For surface-mount alternatives, consider GBJ2501 in DO-247 package.
