1N1613R

Single Diodes Overview

The 1N1613R is a silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features a single-phase, single-element configuration housed in the DO-203AA (DO-4) axial leaded package. The device supports a maximum average forward rectified current of 16A and offers a repetitive peak reverse voltage rating of 100V. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 200A and a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.3V. The component is designed for power applications with an anode-connected case connection.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High current handling capability suitable for robust power rectification tasks
• Robust surge current tolerance to withstand transient overloads
• Standardized axial leaded packaging for reliable through-hole mounting

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose power rectification circuits
• Industrial power supply units
• Battery charging systems

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'R' against the official Microchip datasheet to confirm exact mechanical dimensions and marking details. Ensure compliance with RoHS status requirements, as this specific revision may not be fully compliant. Confirm that the DO-4 package style matches the target PCB footprint and thermal management strategy before finalizing procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-current silicon rectifier is required for low-voltage AC-to-DC conversion. The 100V reverse voltage rating limits suitability to low-voltage applications only. Consider the 1.3V forward voltage drop for efficiency calculations in high-current designs. Verify that the 16A continuous current rating aligns with the thermal dissipation capabilities of the intended heat sink or board layout.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the standard 1N series of rectifier diodes produced by Microchip Technology, formerly Microsemi. These components are widely used in industrial and commercial electronics where reliable power conversion is essential. The DO-4 package provides a rugged mechanical solution for high-power discrete semiconductor applications requiring durable axial leads.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 1N16xx series variants from Microchip or equivalent manufacturers offering identical 16A/100V specifications in a DO-4 package. Ensure pinout compatibility and thermal performance metrics match the original design requirements.
