Product details
Overview
GBU806-K from Taiwan Semiconductor is a standard single-phase bridge rectifier in GBU package, rated for 8A average forward current and 800V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), with 200A non-repetitive surge capability and junction-to-case thermal resistance of 2°C/W - used in AC/DC front-end conversion for industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the GBU806-K datasheet, GBU806-K pinout, GBU806-K application, or GBU806-K equivalent, key selection factors include verified VRRM=800V, IF=8A, IFSM=200A, RθJC=2°C/W, and UL recognition under file #E-326243 for safety-critical designs.
Technical Context
The GBU806-K integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration, enabling direct AC-to-DC conversion without external wiring. Its GBU molded package supports PCB mounting with matte tin-plated leads compliant to J-STD-002 solderability standards.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJA=21°C/W (free-air) and RθJC=2°C/W (case-to-junction), allowing reliable operation up to TJ=150°C. Reverse leakage remains ≤5µA at 25°C and ≤500µA at 125°C under rated VR.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU806 | No "-K" suffix; same electrical specs and GBU package but lacks halogen-free and RoHS-compliant marking per IEC 61249-2-21 | Acceptable where halogen-free requirement is not enforced (e.g., non-EU legacy designs) | Select GBU806-K when compliance with modern environmental directives is mandatory |
| GBU8J | Same 8A/800V rating and GBU package; differs in marking code and date-code format; identical thermal and electrical specs per TSC F2103 revision | No functional difference - used interchangeably in new designs with updated procurement codes | GBU8J is a functionally identical alternate ordering code issued under same datasheet revision |
Compared with GBU806 and GBU8J, the GBU806-K explicitly guarantees halogen-free molding compound and RoHS compliance per IEC 61249-2-21, making it the required choice for EU-market products and green manufacturing programs.

FAQ
What is the peak repetitive reverse voltage rating for GBU806-K?
The GBU806-K has a repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) rating of 800 V, confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of the F2103 datasheet. This value is specific to GBU806-K and distinguishes it from GBU804-K (400 V), GBU805-K (600 V), and GBU807-K (1000 V). The 800 V rating ensures safe operation with 230 VAC mains including transient overvoltages.
Does GBU806-K meet UL safety certification requirements?
Yes, the GBU806-K is UL Recognized under file number E-326243, as stated in the Features section of the official datasheet. This certification covers dielectric strength (1500 VRMS), flammability (UL 94V-0), and construction - enabling its use in end-products requiring UL/CSA approval without additional component-level testing.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case for GBU806-K?
The junction-to-case thermal resistance (RθJC) of the GBU806-K is 2°C/W, per the Thermal Performance table in the F2103 datasheet. This low value allows efficient heat transfer to an external heatsink or metal-core PCB, supporting sustained 8 A operation at elevated ambient temperatures when properly mounted.
Is GBU806-K halogen-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes, the GBU806-K is both halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21 and RoHS compliant, as explicitly noted in the Features section. The "-K" suffix denotes this environmental compliance, differentiating it from non-suffixed variants like GBU806 that lack halogen-free certification.
What is the maximum surge current rating for GBU806-K?
The GBU806-K supports a non-repetitive peak forward surge current (IFSM) of 200 A for an 8.3 ms single half-sine waveform, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating reflects the device's ability to survive common-mode line surges and inrush events without parametric shift or catastrophic failure.
