KBU8J

LGE · Bridge Rectifiers · KBU

KBU8J from LGE, in a KBU. 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 DC negative output of the bridge, marked "-" on the body outline; the part is rated 8.0 A average output current.
2 AC1 passive AC input of the bridge, marked "AC" on the body outline; KBU8J is rated 420 V RMS maximum.
3 AC2 passive Second AC input of the bridge, marked "AC" on the body outline; KBU8J is rated 420 V RMS maximum.
4 + passive DC positive output of the bridge, marked "+" on the body outline; KBU8J has 600 V maximum DC blocking voltage.
