KBP153G C2 Bridge Rectifier Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The KBP153G C2 is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation, designed for 200 V peak reverse voltage applications with 1.5 A average rectified current capacity. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The KBP153G C2 operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and is housed in a 4-SIP KBP through-hole package format. Due to its obsolete status, sourcing alternatives with identical electrical and mechanical specifications is necessary for system continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the KBP153G C2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications:

• Peak reverse voltage rating of 200 V
• Average rectified current capacity of 1.5 A
• Forward voltage drop of 1.1 V maximum at 1.5 A
• Single-phase bridge rectifier topology

Mechanical & Package Requirements:

• 4-SIP KBP through-hole package format
• Identical pin configuration and footprint compatibility

Compliance & Environmental:

• ROHS3 compliance
• Moisture sensitivity level MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH unaffected status

The KBP02G from Diodes Incorporated meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters, establishing it as a direct substitute for the obsolete KBP153G C2.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The KBP02G manufactured by Diodes Incorporated is the qualified substitute for the obsolete KBP153G C2. Both components share identical electrical ratings for peak reverse voltage (200 V) and average rectified current (1.5 A), with matching forward voltage characteristics (1.1 V @ 1.5 A). Both are housed in the 4-SIP KBP through-hole package, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility in existing PCB layouts.

The KBP02G offers an extended minimum operating temperature range (-65°C versus -55°C), providing enhanced performance in low-temperature environments. The reverse leakage current of the KBP02G (5 µA @ 200 V) is lower than the KBP153G C2 (10 µA @ 200 V), indicating improved leakage characteristics. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements.

The active product status of the KBP02G ensures long-term availability and supply chain continuity, addressing the obsolescence of the original KBP153G C2.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the KBP02G be used as a direct replacement for the KBP153G C2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The KBP02G meets all critical electrical specifications (200 V peak reverse voltage, 1.5 A average rectified current, 1.1 V forward voltage) and is packaged in the identical 4-SIP KBP through-hole format. No circuit modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the difference in reverse leakage current between these parts?

A: The KBP153G C2 exhibits 10 µA reverse leakage at 200 V, while the KBP02G exhibits 5 µA at the same voltage. The lower leakage of the KBP02G represents improved performance characteristics and does not affect compatibility.

Q: Are there temperature range differences between the KBP153G C2 and KBP02G?

A: The KBP02G operates from -65°C to 150°C, extending the minimum temperature limit by 10°C compared to the KBP153G C2 (-55°C to 150°C). This provides enhanced performance in cold-temperature applications.

Q: Do both parts comply with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both the KBP153G C2 and KBP02G are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these components?

A: Both components use identical 4-SIP KBP through-hole packaging. The KBP153G C2 was supplied without specified packaging format, while the KBP02G is supplied in tube packaging. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Why is the KBP153G C2 classified as obsolete?

A: The KBP153G C2 is no longer manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. The KBP02G from Diodes Incorporated serves as the active equivalent, ensuring continued availability for applications requiring single-phase 200 V, 1.5 A bridge rectifiers.
