KBPC5002T Bridge Rectifier Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The KBPC5002T is a single-phase bridge rectifier manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor, rated for 200 V peak reverse voltage and 50 A average rectified current. This component is classified as Active product status and is RoHS Compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Bridge rectifiers of this specification are essential in AC-to-DC power conversion applications requiring high current capacity at moderate voltage levels. Substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical ratings and mechanical compatibility within the single-phase bridge rectifier category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the KBPC5002T are identified based on the following criteria:

Primary Matching Parameters:

• Voltage - Peak Reverse (Max): 200 V
• Diode Type: Single Phase
• Technology: Standard
• Mounting Type: QC Terminal
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 150°C (TJ)
• Package Category: 4-Square configuration

Current Rating Consideration: The KBPC5002T is rated for 50 A average rectified current. Substitute parts are grouped by current capacity: parts with identical 50 A rating are direct substitutes; parts with lower current ratings (10 A, 25 A, 35 A) are downgrades suitable only for applications requiring reduced current capacity.

Electrical Performance: All substitute parts maintain the 200 V peak reverse voltage specification and operate within the same temperature range. Forward voltage characteristics remain consistent at 1.1 V maximum across the series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Substitute (50 A Rating): The GBPC5002-G manufactured by Comchip Technology is a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for the KBPC5002T. Both components share identical voltage ratings (200 V peak reverse), current capacity (50 A average rectified), forward voltage characteristics (1.1 V @ 25 A), operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C), and QC Terminal mounting configuration. The GBPC5002-G carries ROHS3 Compliant status and REACH Unaffected designation, meeting current environmental compliance requirements. The primary difference is reverse leakage current: GBPC5002-G specifies 10 µA @ 200 V compared to 5 µA @ 200 V for the KBPC5002T. Both components are Active product status with MSL 1 (Unlimited).

Downgrade Substitutes (Lower Current Ratings): The KBPC3502-G (35 A), KBPC2502-G (25 A), and KBPC1002-G (10 A) are electrical substitutes only for applications where reduced current capacity is acceptable. These parts maintain the 200 V voltage specification and QC Terminal mounting but are rated for progressively lower average rectified current. Selection of these parts is appropriate only when circuit design permits operation at reduced current levels. All three components are manufactured by Comchip Technology with Active product status and ROHS3 Compliant certification.

Compliance Considerations: All substitute parts maintain RoHS compliance (ROHS3 standard for Comchip parts versus RoHS Compliant for GeneSiC original). All parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating and operate within the specified temperature range. ECCN and HTSUS classifications remain consistent across all parts listed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can GBPC5002-G replace KBPC5002T in all applications? A: The GBPC5002-G is electrically and mechanically compatible with KBPC5002T for applications requiring 50 A at 200 V. Both components share identical current and voltage ratings, forward voltage characteristics, operating temperature range, and QC Terminal mounting. The reverse leakage current difference (10 µA versus 5 µA) is the only electrical distinction and is not significant for standard rectification applications.

Q: Why are lower current-rated parts listed as substitutes? A: KBPC1002-G, KBPC2502-G, and KBPC3502-G are listed as substitutes only for applications where circuit design permits operation at reduced current capacity. These parts maintain the 200 V voltage specification and mechanical compatibility but cannot support the full 50 A rating of the KBPC5002T. Selection of these parts requires verification that application current requirements do not exceed the substitute part's rating.

Q: Are there package compatibility differences between KBPC-T and GBPC packages? A: Both KBPC-T and GBPC packages are 4-Square configurations with QC Terminal mounting. The package designation difference reflects manufacturer-specific naming conventions. Physical dimensions and terminal configurations are compatible for standard PCB mounting applications.

Q: What is the significance of reverse leakage current differences? A: The KBPC5002T specifies 5 µA @ 200 V reverse leakage, while Comchip substitutes specify 10 µA @ 200 V. This difference indicates slightly higher leakage in substitute parts but remains within acceptable limits for standard bridge rectifier applications. Applications with stringent leakage requirements should specify the lower-leakage KBPC5002T.

Q: Do all parts meet current environmental compliance standards? A: Yes. The KBPC5002T is RoHS Compliant. All Comchip substitute parts carry ROHS3 Compliant certification and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current environmental regulations. All parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Can KBPC3502-G be used as a substitute if my application requires only 35 A? A: Yes. The KBPC3502-G is suitable for applications requiring 35 A or less at 200 V. This part maintains all other electrical and mechanical specifications of the KBPC5002T series, including forward voltage, operating temperature range, and QC Terminal mounting. Selection should be based on verified application current requirements.
