Product details
Overview
KBP08G from Diodes Incorporated is a 1.5A standard recovery bridge rectifier with 800V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.1V forward voltage at 1.5A, and 5µA reverse leakage current at 25°C. It features glass passivated die construction, 1500VRMS case dielectric strength, and 40A non-repetitive surge capability - used in AC/DC front-end rectification for industrial power supplies and LED drivers.
For engineers reviewing the KBP08G datasheet, KBP08G pinout, KBP08G application, or KBP08G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM margin for line-voltage transients, thermal resistance (18°C/W junction-to-case), surge rating for inrush handling, and KBP package compatibility with PCB layout constraints in compact power converters.
Technical Context
This single-phase, full-wave bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a monolithic KBP package. Its standard recovery characteristic (typical trr > 500ns) suits 50/60Hz line-frequency applications where switching loss is not critical but robust surge immunity is required.
Designed for mounting on a 75mm × 75mm × 1.6mm copper heatsink, it delivers 1.5A average output current at TC = +105°C with thermal resistance of 18°C/W. Junction capacitance is 20pF, supporting stable operation under capacitive-input filter conditions when derated by 20%.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 800 V - Withstands peak line transients up to 800V in 230VAC systems with safety margin |
| IO @ TC=105°C | 1.5 A - Continuous DC output current achievable with proper heatsinking |
| VF @ 1.5A | 1.1 V - Contributes ~1.65W conduction loss per half-cycle at full load |
| IFSM (8.3ms) | 40 A - Handles cold-start inrush into bulk capacitors without failure |
| IR @ 25°C | 5 µA - Low leakage preserves efficiency in high-impedance bias networks |
| RθJC | 18 °C/W - Requires minimum 75mm × 75mm Cu heatsink area for thermal compliance |
| CT | 20 pF - Minimizes EMI coupling in low-frequency rectifier stage |
Pinout & Package
Package: KBP - 4-terminal molded plastic case (UL 94V-0), 14.5mm × 10.4mm footprint, 1.52g weight, matte tin-plated leads solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU8K (ON Semiconductor) | Same KBP package, 800V VRRM, 1.1V VF, but 50A IFSM and higher RθJC (20°C/W) | Higher surge tolerance; less thermally efficient at sustained 1.5A | Prefer when inrush dominates thermal design; avoid if continuous 1.5A at elevated ambient is required |
| W08M (Vishay) | Same KBP package, 800V VRRM, 1.1V VF, 45A IFSM, RθJC = 19°C/W, no UL recognition | Lacks UL file number; suitable only where end-equipment certification does not mandate UL | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs safety certification needs and thermal margin is acceptable |
Compared with GBU8K and W08M, KBP08G offers balanced surge capability (40A), best-in-class thermal resistance (18°C/W), and UL recognition - making it optimal for certified industrial and lighting power supplies where thermal performance and regulatory compliance are jointly critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for KBP08G?
KBP08G has a junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C and is rated for 1.5A average output current at case temperature (TC) of +105°C. Operation beyond +105°C requires derating per the thermal resistance (18°C/W) and heatsink capability. Storage temperature matches operating range: –55°C to +150°C.
Is KBP08G suitable for use in automotive applications?
KBP08G is not AEC-Q101 qualified and is not intended for automotive under-hood applications. Diodes Incorporated states that automotive-grade variants require specific change control, PPAP capability, and IATF 16949 manufacturing - contact their automotive team for qualified alternatives like the AEC-Q101-certified GBU8JL series.
Does KBP08G have lead-free and RoHS-compliant construction?
Yes. KBP08G features a lead-free matte tin finish compliant with EU RoHS Directive 2015/863/EU (RoHS 3), including all applicable exemptions. It also meets Diodes' "Green" definition - halogen- and antimony-free - and is UL Recognized under file E95060.
How is polarity marked on the KBP08G package?
Polarity is marked on the top surface of the KBP package: "+" indicates the positive DC output terminal, "–" marks the negative DC output terminal, and "~" symbols identify the two AC input terminals. These markings align with the standard KBP outline and match the pinout defined in DS21203 Rev. 13–2.
