GBU408

LGE · Bridge Rectifiers · GBU

GBU408 from LGE, in a GBU. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 - passive Negative DC output terminal of the bridge rectifier (leftmost lead in the package drawing); GBU408 is rated 800 V VRRM and 4.0 A average output current at TC=100°C.
2 AC passive AC input terminal of the bridge rectifier; GBU408 is rated 560 V RMS maximum.
3 AC passive AC input terminal of the bridge rectifier; GBU408 is rated 560 V RMS maximum.
4 + passive Positive DC output terminal of the bridge rectifier (rightmost lead in the package drawing); peak forward surge current is 150.0 A for 8.3 ms.
