Product details
Overview
KBJ402G from Diodes Incorporated is a 4.0A, 200V standard recovery bridge rectifier in a KBJ through-hole package, featuring 1.0V max forward voltage at 2.0A, 5.0µA max reverse leakage at 25°C, and 120A peak surge capability - used for AC/DC conversion in offline power supplies and industrial motor controls.
For engineers reviewing the KBJ402G datasheet, KBJ402G pinout, KBJ402G application, or KBJ402G equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical ratings, thermal resistance (5.5°C/W), junction capacitance (40pF), mounting torque limit (5.0 in-lbs), and UL recognition status (E95060) to support reliable high-current rectification design.
Technical Context
This single-phase full-wave bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a common molded plastic (UL 94V-0) case with tin-plated leads. It operates across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature and supports PCB mounting via #6 screw with defined mechanical torque limits.
The device delivers 4.0A average output current when heatsinked (75mm × 75mm × 1.6mm Al plate), exhibits 1500VRMS dielectric strength between case and terminals, and maintains low IR (5.0µA @ 25°C, 500µA @ 125°C) under rated VRRM = 200V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage the bridge withstands without breakdown during AC line cycling. |
| IF(AV) | 4.0 A - Average DC output current sustainable with proper heatsinking at TJ = +150°C. |
| VF Max | 1.0 V @ 2.0A - Forward voltage drop per diode pair, directly impacting conduction loss and thermal load. |
| IR Max | 5.0 µA @ 25°C - Reverse leakage current limiting standby power loss and ensuring stable blocking in high-impedance circuits. |
| IFSM | 120 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current handling capability for inrush and transient protection. |
| RθJC | 5.5 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enabling accurate heatsink sizing for thermal management. |
| CT | 40 pF - Junction capacitance affecting high-frequency noise coupling and EMI filter design. |

Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Offline Switch-Mode Power Supplies |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rectifying 50/60Hz AC from control transformer to DC bus for IGBT gate drivers and logic supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bridge rectifier providing isolated, regulated DC bias for drive circuitry. Use Value: Low VF (1.0V) minimizes heat generation in space-constrained control boards; 120A surge rating absorbs motor startup transients. | Use Scenario: Converting universal AC input (85–265VAC) to high-voltage DC for PFC and main DC-DC stages. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary AC/DC conversion element before active power factor correction. Use Value: 200V VRRM safely handles 265VAC peaks with margin; UL recognition simplifies end-product safety approvals. |
| LED Streetlight Drivers | Industrial PLC Power Modules |
Use Scenario: Rectifying AC line to DC for constant-current LED driver ICs in outdoor lighting enclosures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage bridge delivering stable DC to buck/boost LED controllers. Use Value: 1500VRMS isolation prevents creepage/clearance failures in wet-location housings; -55°C to +150°C rating ensures outdoor reliability. | Use Scenario: Providing auxiliary 24VDC rail from AC mains for PLC I/O and communication modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Compact, screw-mounted rectifier integrated into DIN-rail power supply PCBs. Use Value: KBJ package enables robust mechanical mounting; 4.0A IF(AV) supports multiple downstream rails with headroom. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU4K | Same 4.0A/200V rating but GBU package (larger footprint, higher RθJC = 7.0°C/W). | Less suitable for compact PCBs; requires larger heatsink area for same thermal performance. | Select when existing layout uses GBU footprint or higher surge margin (140A) is required. |
| W04G | Lower 1.5A IF(AV), smaller WOG package, VF = 1.1V, IR = 10µA - not a direct replacement. | Only appropriate for low-power auxiliary supplies (<15W), not main DC bus rectification. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, low-current designs where thermal derating is acceptable. |
Compared with GBU4K and W04G, KBJ402G offers optimal balance of thermal efficiency (5.5°C/W), compact KBJ footprint, and UL recognition - making it preferred for industrial-grade 4A rectification where board space and safety certification matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for KBJ402G?
KBJ402G has a specified junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. Its 4.0A average current rating assumes operation at TJ = +150°C with appropriate heatsinking (75mm × 75mm × 1.6mm aluminum plate). Ambient temperature must be derated accordingly based on RθJC = 5.5°C/W and system-level thermal resistance.
Is KBJ402G suitable for automotive applications?
KBJ402G is not AEC-Q101 qualified and lacks PPAP documentation or IATF 16949 manufacturing evidence in its public datasheet. While it meets RoHS and UL requirements, Diodes explicitly states that automotive use requires direct engagement with their representatives for change-controlled, qualified variants - making standard KBJ402G unsuitable for safety-critical vehicle systems.
How does the KBJ package differ from KBPC or GBU packages?
The KBJ package is a 4-pin, insulated, rectangular molded plastic case with screw-mount capability (for #6 screw) and 5.0 in-lbs torque limit. Unlike KBPC (larger, no screw mount) or GBU (flat-base, no mounting hole), KBJ provides mechanical stability for high-vibration environments and simplified heatsinking via direct case contact.
Can KBJ402G replace KBJ401G in an existing design?
Yes - KBJ402G (200V VRRM) is a direct upgrade from KBJ401G (100V VRRM) with identical package, pinout, thermal characteristics, and electrical behavior below 100V. The higher voltage rating adds margin for line surges and universal-input designs, with no layout or thermal changes required.
