Product details
Overview
GBPC2510 from Diodes Incorporated is a 25A glass passivated single-phase bridge rectifier with 1000V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.1V forward voltage at 12.5A per element, 300A non-repetitive surge rating, and metal-base thermal design for heatsink mounting-used in industrial AC/DC power supplies, motor drive front-ends, and welding equipment input stages.
For engineers reviewing the GBPC2510 datasheet, GBPC2510 pinout, GBPC2510 application, or GBPC2510 equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM derating for capacitive loads, thermal resistance (1.3°C/W junction-to-case), case-mounting torque limit (8.0 in-lb), and UL recognition (E94661) for safety-compliant power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This discrete bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a single molded plastic package with internal heatsink, configured as a full-wave single-phase bridge. Its glass passivated die construction ensures low reverse leakage (5.0 µA at 25°C, 500 µA at 125°C) and stable operation across –65°C to +150°C junction temperature range.
Designed for through-hole mounting with #10 screw, it delivers 25A average output current at TC = 60°C when mounted on a 220 × 220 × 50 mm aluminum plate heatsink. The 1500V case-to-terminal isolation supports reinforced insulation in Class I and II AC mains interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Withstands peak reverse voltage up to 1000V without breakdown; defines maximum AC input voltage (≈707V RMS) before conduction failure. |
| IO @ TC=60°C | 25 A - Continuous DC output current capability when case temperature is held at 60°C via heatsink; derates linearly above this temperature. |
| VFM @ IF=12.5A | 1.1 V - Forward voltage drop per diode leg at half-rated current; determines conduction loss (≈27.5W total at 25A full-wave). |
| IFSM (8.3ms) | 300 A - Single half-sine surge withstand capability; supports brief inrush events such as transformer energization or capacitor charging. |
| RθJC | 1.3 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance with heatsink contact; enables thermal design using measured case temperature to estimate junction temp. |
| IR @ 25°C / 125°C | 5.0 / 500 µA - Reverse leakage current per element; impacts standby power loss and high-impedance bias stability in precision circuits. |
| Isolation Voltage | 1500 V - Dielectric strength between case and terminals; satisfies basic insulation requirements for 250–400V AC mains applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: GBPC (standard faston terminals) - Molded plastic case with integrated metal baseplate for direct heatsink mounting; UL 94V-0 rated; weight ≈20 g. Dimensions: 28.3–28.8 mm (A), 7.4–8.25 mm (B), 16.1–17.1 mm (C), hole diameter 5.08–5.59 mm for #10 screw.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AC1 / AC2 | AC Input Terminals | Two symmetrical AC inputs accepting single-phase line and neutral; internally connected to opposite anodes/cathodes of the bridge. |
| (+) Output | Positive DC Output Terminal | Anode-common node of two series-connected diodes; delivers rectified positive voltage to bulk capacitor or downstream regulator. |
| (–) Output | Negative DC Output Terminal | Cathode-common node of two series-connected diodes; serves as system ground reference for the DC bus. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Enables stable reverse characteristics and low IR drift over temperature and time-critical for long-life industrial power supplies. |
| 300A surge rating (8.3ms) | Supports repeated cold-start surges without degradation; exceeds IEC 61000-4-5 line surge immunity test levels. |
| Metal base with heatsink interface | Provides low-thermal-resistance path (1.3°C/W) from junction to external heatsink-enables compact thermal design without forced air. |
| UL Recognized (E94661) | Validates construction, flammability (94V-0), and isolation for use in certified end equipment without additional safety testing. |
Applications
| Industrial AC/DC Power Supply | Motor Drive Input Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Converts 400VAC three-phase line (via phase-splitting) or 230VAC single-phase mains into unregulated DC bus for PWM inverters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete bridge rectifier providing full-wave AC-to-DC conversion with minimal conduction loss and high surge tolerance. Use Value: 25A continuous rating and 300A surge capacity ensure reliable startup under high-inertia motor loads and line transients. |
Use Scenario: Front-end rectification in variable-frequency drives for HVAC compressors and conveyor systems operating in ambient up to 70°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-current, thermally robust bridge delivering stable DC link voltage to IGBT gate drivers and control logic. Use Value: Metal-base package and 1.3°C/W RθJC allow passive heatsinking-eliminating fan dependency in sealed enclosures. |
| Welding Equipment Power Stage | Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Charger |
Use Scenario: Rectifies 60Hz utility or generator input in portable arc welders requiring high peak current delivery during electrode striking. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete bridge handling intermittent 25A average + 300A surge pulses without thermal runaway. Use Value: Low VFM (1.1V) minimizes heat generation during sustained arcing, extending duty cycle in air-cooled units. |
Use Scenario: AC input rectification in online double-conversion UPS systems where reliability and thermal margin are critical for battery backup operation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary rectifier converting utility AC to DC for inverter stage and battery charging circuitry. Use Value: UL E94661 recognition and 1500V isolation support safety certification for Class I medical-grade UPS installations. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBJ2510 | Same 1000V VRRM and 25A IO rating; GBJ package uses single inline pins instead of GBPC's faston terminals; RθJC = 1.5°C/W (slightly higher thermal resistance). | Preferred for PCB-mounted designs with wave soldering; less suitable for screw-mounted heatsink interfaces. | Select GBJ2510 only if board-level assembly and footprint compatibility outweigh mechanical mounting requirements. |
| KBU2510 | Identical electrical specs (1000V/25A); KBU package has different leadform (in-line, no metal base); RθJC = 2.0°C/W; no UL recognition. | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer power supplies where safety certification is not required. | Choose KBU2510 only when UL listing is unnecessary and thermal margin allows higher junction temperature rise. |
Compared with GBPC2510, GBJ2510 offers better PCB integration but sacrifices heatsink-mounting flexibility and thermal performance, while KBU2510 reduces cost and certification overhead at the expense of isolation rating and thermal efficiency.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended mounting torque for GBPC2510?
The datasheet specifies a maximum mounting torque of 8.0 inch-pounds for the #10 screw used to secure the metal base to the heatsink. Exceeding this value risks cracking the molded plastic case or deforming the internal die attach, leading to premature thermal failure or reduced isolation integrity.
Can GBPC2510 be used with capacitive loads without derating?
No. The datasheet explicitly requires a 20% current derating for capacitive loads due to higher peak currents during capacitor charging. At full 25A rating, the device must be operated at ≤20A when feeding bulk capacitance directly-verified by measuring case temperature under worst-case load conditions.
Is GBPC2510 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes. GBPC2510 features a lead-free finish and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU (as revised March 2003), including exemptions for glass and high-temperature solder per EU Annex Notes 5 and 7-confirmed in Diodes' official compliance documentation.
Why is GBPC2510 marked as obsolete in its datasheet?
Diodes Incorporated designated GBPC2510 as obsolete in favor of the GBJ2510 series (DS21221), which offers identical electrical ratings in a more manufacturable package. However, GBPC2510 remains actively stocked and supported by Aetrix Electronics for legacy design continuity and field repair needs.
