Product details
Overview
KBU1006G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 10A, 800V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) standard bridge rectifier in KBU package, featuring glass-passivated junctions, 200A surge capability (IFSM), and UL Recognized File # E-326243 compliance; it serves as the AC/DC front-end rectification stage in compact offline power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the KBU1006G datasheet, KBU1006G pinout, KBU1006G application, or KBU1006G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 800V, IF = 10A continuous, RθJC = 2.2°C/W thermal resistance, TJ max = 150°C, and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability.
Technical Context
The KBU1006G integrates four silicon diodes in a single-phase full-wave bridge configuration with quad-terminal layout (AC1, AC2, +, –), enabling direct replacement of discrete diode bridges in space-constrained PCB layouts. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage performance (IR ≤ 5 µA at 25°C) and high reliability under thermal cycling.
Designed for conduction-mode operation in universal-input SMPS, it supports 8.3ms non-repetitive surge currents up to 200A and delivers low forward voltage drop (VF ≤ 1.1V at 10A, 25°C), minimizing conduction losses in 50–60Hz line-frequency rectification stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 800 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage the device blocks without breakdown; defines usable input voltage range in AC line rectification. |
| IF | 10 A - Continuous average forward current rating; determines maximum DC output current capability after rectification. |
| IFSM | 200 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current (8.3ms half-sine); enables robust startup and transient overload handling. |
| RθJC | 2.2 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; allows accurate heatsink sizing when mounted to metal chassis or PCB copper pour. |
| IR | ≤ 5 µA @ 25°C - Reverse leakage per diode; ensures minimal standby power loss in offline adapters and lighting drivers. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Maximum allowable junction temperature; sets thermal design margin for continuous operation in enclosed environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBU1006 | VRRM = 800 V, IF = 10 A, but GBU package has larger footprint and higher RθJA (30°C/W). | Less suitable for space-constrained designs; requires larger PCB area and more copper for thermal management. | Choose GBU1006 only if legacy board layout or distributor stock mandates GBU form factor. |
| W08M | VRRM = 800 V, IF = 10 A, but W08M uses WOB package with lower profile and different lead pitch (5.0 mm vs. KBU's 5.1 mm). | Compatible in height-sensitive applications (e.g., ultra-thin adapters), but requires PCB footprint revision. | Select W08M when mechanical envelope limits KBU height or when sourcing flexibility across multiple distributors is critical. |
Compared with GBU1006 and W08M, the KBU1006G offers optimal balance of thermal performance (RθJC = 2.2°C/W), UL recognition, and standardized KBU footprint-making it preferred for new designs targeting cost-effective, certified, and thermally efficient AC/DC front-ends.

FAQ
What is the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM) rating for KBU1006G?
The KBU1006G has a VRRM rating of 800 V, meaning it reliably blocks up to 800 volts of repetitive reverse voltage across its AC terminals. This value is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet (Version J2103) and defines the upper limit of AC input voltage the device can safely handle in full-wave rectification applications.
Does KBU1006G meet RoHS and UL safety requirements?
Yes, the KBU1006G is RoHS compliant and UL Recognized under File # E-326243. These certifications are explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet and verified on authorized distributor listings. Compliance ensures suitability for commercial and industrial end equipment requiring environmental and safety regulatory adherence.
What is the forward voltage drop (VF) of KBU1006G at 10A and 25°C?
The forward voltage drop of KBU1006G is specified as ≤1.1 V at IF = 10 A and TJ = 25°C, per the Electrical Specifications table. This value reflects worst-case conduction loss per diode pair during steady-state operation and directly impacts thermal design and efficiency calculations in power supply front-ends.
Can KBU1006G be used in surface-mount designs?
No, the KBU1006G uses a through-hole KBU package with axial leads intended for wave or hand soldering. It is not a surface-mount device. The package outline drawing confirms lead spacing and body dimensions optimized for PCB mounting with mechanical retention, and no SMD variant (e.g., KBU-SMT) is listed in the ordering information or mechanical data.
What is the junction-to-case thermal resistance (RθJC) of KBU1006G?
The junction-to-case thermal resistance of KBU1006G is 2.2°C/W, as published in the Thermal Performance section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. This parameter enables precise calculation of case temperature rise under load and informs heatsink selection or PCB copper area requirements when mounting the device to a metal chassis or thermal pad.
