Product details
Overview
GBPC4006 T0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 40A, 600V standard single-phase bridge rectifier in GBPC40 package with glass-passivated junctions, 400A peak surge current rating, and 1.5°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance-used in AC-DC front-end stages of industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the GBPC4006 T0G datasheet, GBPC4006 T0G pinout, GBPC4006 T0G application, or GBPC4006 T0G equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive peak reverse voltage (600 V), average forward current (40 A), thermal resistance (1.5 °C/W), mounting compatibility (snap-on/wrap-around/solder/PCB), and UL recognition (E-326243).
Technical Context
This quad-diode bridge integrates four silicon junctions in a single molded GBPC40 case with integral heatsink, enabling direct mounting to external heat sinks via its metal baseplate. Its glass-passivated chips ensure stable reverse leakage (<10 µA at 25°C) and high reliability under thermal cycling.
The device operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range, supports 8.3 ms half-sine surge up to 400 A, and delivers typical forward voltage of 1.1 V per diode at rated current-critical for efficiency optimization in high-current rectification paths.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay GBPC406 | Same 40A/600V rating, identical GBPC40 package, but uses epoxy-molded construction without integral heatsink baseplate | Higher RθJC (~2.0°C/W); requires additional thermal interface material and larger heatsink area | Preferred where cost sensitivity outweighs thermal performance; verify heatsink design margins |
| ON Semiconductor GBU4J | Lower current rating (4A), smaller GBU package, no UL recognition, no integral heatsink | Not suitable for 40A applications; limited to low-power auxiliary supplies | Only viable for prototyping or low-load evaluation-cannot replace GBPC4006 T0G in production designs |
Compared with GBPC4006 T0G, GBPC406 offers identical electrical specs but reduced thermal performance due to absence of integral heatsink, while GBU4J is functionally incompatible at system current levels-making GBPC4006 T0G the only option meeting both 40A continuous and UL-compliant thermal requirements.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for GBPC4006 T0G?
The GBPC4006 T0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJ(max)) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings table in Taiwan Semiconductor's G2211 datasheet. This rating enables operation in high-ambient industrial enclosures when paired with appropriate heatsinking. Thermal derating curves confirm usable current capacity down to 0 A at 150°C case temperature. GBPC4006 T0G must not exceed this limit to maintain reliability and warranty compliance.
Does GBPC4006 T0G have UL recognition?
Yes, GBPC4006 T0G carries UL Recognition under file #E-326243, as documented in the official Taiwan Semiconductor GBPC40, 50 series datasheet (Version G2211). This certification covers flammability (UL 94V-0), terminal strength, and dielectric withstanding voltage-supporting end-equipment safety approvals for commercial and industrial power supplies. GBPC4006 T0G meets these requirements without modification.
What is the forward voltage drop specification for GBPC4006 T0G?
Per the electrical specifications table, GBPC4006 T0G exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.1 V per diode at IF = 20 A and TJ = 25°C, measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 0.3 ms). This value reflects conduction loss in one leg of the bridge; total bridge drop is ~2.2 V at full load. GBPC4006 T0G maintains this performance across its operating temperature range with minimal drift.
Is GBPC4006 T0G compatible with PCB mounting?
Yes, GBPC4006 T0G supports PCB mounting via its four-way terminal configuration, including dedicated through-hole pads for AC1, AC2, +, and – pins as shown in the GBPC40 package outline drawing. The device's 17.55 mm × 15.55 mm footprint and 29.00 mm length accommodate standard layout spacing. GBPC4006 T0G's matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 for reliable solder wetting and joint integrity.
What is the peak surge current rating for GBPC4006 T0G?
GBPC4006 T0G is rated for a non-repetitive peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 400 A, defined for an 8.3 ms single half-sine waveform superimposed on rated load. This rating is validated per JEDEC standards and enables reliable handling of inrush currents from large input capacitors in SMPS designs. GBPC4006 T0G maintains this capability across its full junction temperature range (-55°C to +150°C).
