1N1201R

Single Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N1201R is a standard recovery rectifier diode designed for high-power applications. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 150 V and an average forward rectified current rating of 12 A. The device exhibits a typical forward voltage drop of 1.2 V at 30 A and maintains a low reverse leakage current of 10 µA at its rated voltage. Operating within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +200°C, it utilizes a DO-4 (DO-203AA) stud mount package.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High thermal stability with a maximum junction temperature rating of 200°C
• Robust mechanical construction utilizing a stud mount configuration for efficient heat dissipation
• Standard recovery characteristics suitable for general-purpose power conversion

Single Diodes Applications

• Industrial power supply rectification
• Battery charging systems
• DC-to-AC inverter circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R' against official datasheets to confirm packaging or marking variations. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical data indicates non-compliance. Validate lead times directly with the manufacturer due to potential supply chain fluctuations. Ensure mounting hardware compatibility with the DO-4 stud interface prior to procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 150 V blocking capability and 12 A continuous current are required. The 200°C junction temperature rating allows for operation in high-ambient environments where lower-rated silicon devices would fail. Consider the stud mount requirement for thermal management solutions. Evaluate if the standard recovery speed meets the switching frequency requirements of the target circuit.
