Product details
Overview
KBJL406-TU from Diodes Incorporated is a 4A standard recovery bridge rectifier in KBJL package, rated for 600V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 1.0V max forward voltage at 2A, and 10µA max reverse leakage at 25°C. It delivers high surge current capability (120A @ 8.3ms) and is optimized for TV, game console, and PC power supply front-end AC-DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the KBJL406-TU datasheet, KBJL406-TU pinout, KBJL406-TU application, or KBJL406-TU equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM rating, thermal resistance without heatsink (24°C/W), IFSM surge tolerance, junction capacitance (40pF), and RoHS-compliant green molding compound compliance.
Technical Context
This device integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration with glass-passivated die construction, enabling stable operation across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range. Its standard recovery characteristic (non-fast/soft recovery) suits general-purpose line-frequency rectification where EMI constraints are moderate.
The KBJL406-TU uses matte tin-plated leads solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208 and mounts directly to PCBs without discrete heatsinking for ≤2.7A average current. Thermal resistance junction-to-ambient is 24°C/W without heatsink and 11°C/W with a 35mm × 35mm × 1.7mm copper heatsink.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; defines safe AC input voltage headroom (e.g., 230VAC RMS → ~325V peak). |
| IF(AV) | 4 A (with heatsink), 2.7 A (no heatsink) - Continuous DC output current capability under specified thermal conditions. |
| VF Max | 1.0 V @ 2A, 25°C - Forward conduction loss impacting efficiency and thermal rise in linearly loaded supplies. |
| IR Max | 10 µA @ 600V, 25°C - Reverse leakage defining off-state power loss and reliability in high-impedance hold-up circuits. |
| IFSM | 120 A @ 8.3ms - Single half-sine surge rating determining robustness against inrush and line transients. |
| RθJA | 24 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance without heatsink; sets maximum ambient temperature for safe 2.7A operation. |
| CT | 40 pF @ 1MHz, 4V - Junction capacitance influencing high-frequency noise coupling and snubber design. |
Pinout & Package

| ~AC2 | AC Input Terminal 2 | Second AC input node; completes full-wave bridge input path with ~AC1. |
| +DC | Positive DC Output | Full-wave rectified positive output node; feeds bulk capacitor or downstream regulator. |
| -DC | Negative DC Output / Common Return | Full-wave rectified negative output node; serves as circuit ground reference and return path. |

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The KBJL406-TU supports continuous operation from -55°C to +150°C junction temperature. Derating begins at +125°C case temperature, where average forward current drops to 2.7A without heatsink and remains at 4A with heatsink per datasheet Figure 1.
Is KBJL406-TU pin-compatible with other KBJL-series rectifiers?
Yes - all KBJL-series devices (KBJL406 through KBJL410) share identical KBJL package dimensions, lead pitch, and 4-pin terminal assignment (~AC1, ~AC2, +DC, -DC). Only VRRM and related surge ratings differ between variants.
Does KBJL406-TU require a heatsink for 4A operation?
Yes - 4A average current is only rated with a 35mm × 35mm × 1.7mm copper heatsink. Without heatsink, the maximum continuous current is 2.7A at TC = +125°C, as defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
What does "Green" mean in the KBJL406-TU marking?
"Green" indicates Diodes' halogen- and antimony-free qualification: <900ppm bromine, <900ppm chlorine (<1500ppm total Br+Cl), and <1000ppm antimony compounds - meeting IPC-1752A Class 3 material declarations for environmental compliance.
