Product details
Overview
KBP406G from Diodes Incorporated is a 4.0A, 600V standard recovery bridge rectifier in KBP package, featuring 1.1V max forward voltage at 4.0A, 5μA max reverse leakage at 1000V/25°C, and 130A non-repetitive surge rating - used for AC/DC full-wave rectification in LED lighting power supplies and office equipment.
For engineers reviewing the KBP406G datasheet, KBP406G pinout, KBP406G application, or KBP406G equivalent, key selection criteria include peak repetitive reverse voltage (600V), average output current capability (4.0A with heatsink), thermal resistance (6°C/W junction-to-case), surge robustness (130A @ 8.3ms), and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish.
Technical Context
The KBP406G integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase bridge configuration with glass-passivated die construction, enabling stable operation across -55°C to +150°C ambient range. Its standard recovery characteristic (trr not specified, consistent with standard recovery classification) supports line-frequency rectification without fast-switching trade-offs.
Designed for PCB mounting, it delivers 4.0A average rectified output under heatsink conditions (TC = +105°C), derating to 2.0A without heatsink. Thermal performance is defined by RθJC = 6°C/W (with heatsink) and RθJA = 40°C/W (no heatsink), directly informing thermal design margin in compact power supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 600 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage per diode leg; defines safe AC input voltage ceiling (e.g., ≤420V RMS). |
| IO (with heatsink) | 4.0 A - Continuous DC output current capability when mounted on 75mm × 75mm × 1.6mm Cu heatsink. |
| VF (max) | 1.1 V @ 4.0A - Forward drop per diode element; determines conduction loss (≈4.4W total bridge loss at full load). |
| IR (max) | 5 μA @ 1000V, 25°C - Reverse leakage limit; ensures low standby power in high-impedance hold-up circuits. |
| IFSM | 130 A @ 8.3ms - Surge withstand for cold-start inrush into capacitive inputs; validated per half-sine waveform. |
| RθJC | 6 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance with heatsink; enables direct thermal interface design for thermal management. |
Pinout & Package
Package: KBP - Molded plastic case (UL 94V-0), 4-terminal single-in-line bridge configuration, 1.52g weight, with polarity marked on body. Leads are bright tin-plated, solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| ~ (AC2) | AC Input Terminal 2 | Second AC input node; completes full-wave bridge input path with AC1. |
| + (DC+) | Positive DC Output | Anode of internal upper diodes; delivers rectified positive output to filter capacitor or load. |
| – (DC–) | Negative DC Output / Ground Reference | Cathode of internal lower diodes; serves as return path and system ground reference point. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Applications
| LED Lighting Power Supply | Office Equipment AC/DC Adapter |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU6K (ON Semiconductor) | Same 600V VRRM, 6A IO (with heatsink), but higher VF (1.1V typ → 1.15V max) and larger GBU package. | Requires PCB re-layout due to different footprint; better suited for higher-current legacy designs. | Select if >4A continuous current is required and board space allows larger package. |
| W10M (Vishay) | 600V VRRM, 1.5A IO (no heatsink), smaller WOB package, lower surge rating (60A vs. 130A). | Limited to low-power adapters (<15W); insufficient for 4A LED drivers or office equipment. | Only suitable where thermal budget and surge margin are relaxed; not a drop-in replacement. |
Compared with GBU6K and W10M, KBP406G provides optimal balance of 4A capacity, 130A surge robustness, and compact KBP footprint - making it preferred for mid-power LED and office equipment designs requiring certified reliability and thermal headroom.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for KBP406G?
The KBP406G has an operating junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. Its thermal resistance values (RθJC = 6°C/W with heatsink, RθJA = 40°C/W without) allow direct calculation of allowable ambient temperature based on power dissipation and cooling method - critical for LED driver thermal design.
Is KBP406G suitable for automotive applications?
KBP406G is not AEC-Q200 qualified and lacks PPAP documentation or IATF 16949-specific change control. While it operates across -55°C to +150°C, Diodes explicitly states that automotive-grade variants require direct consultation - this part is intended for commercial/industrial use only.
How does the KBP package differ from GBU or WOB packages?
The KBP package measures 14.5mm × 10.4mm × 14.5mm with 4 inline terminals and a 3° lead angle; GBU is larger (20mm × 14.2mm), and WOB is smaller (12.7mm × 10.2mm). KBP offers optimized thermal performance (6°C/W RθJC) and PCB area efficiency for 4A applications, unlike WOB's 1.5A rating or GBU's 6A rating.
Can KBP406G replace KBP404G or KBP408G in a design?
Yes - all KBP4xxG parts share identical pinout, package, and thermal characteristics. Substituting KBP406G (600V) for KBP404G (400V) increases reverse voltage margin; substituting for KBP408G (800V) reduces margin. Forward voltage and surge ratings are consistent across the series, enabling direct replacement where VRRM requirements align.
