1N2067

Single Diodes Overview

The 1N2067 is a silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Microchip Technology, housed in the DO-205AB (DO-9) package. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 900 V and an average forward rectified current rating of 250 A. The device exhibits a maximum non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 5000 A and a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.25 V. Designed for soft recovery power applications, it utilizes a single-phase configuration with the case connected to the cathode terminal.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High-current DC power supplies
• Motor drive rectifier circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source, as historical production may involve legacy entities such as Solid State Inc. or Motorola before acquisition by Microchip. Confirm RoHS compliance status, as older revisions are often leaded. Ensure the DO-205AB package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Request the latest datasheet to confirm electrical parameters against current production batches.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when high current handling and high voltage blocking are required in a standard axial leaded package. The soft recovery feature makes it suitable for applications where reverse recovery charge minimization is beneficial. Compare the 250 A continuous current rating against your load requirements. Consider thermal dissipation needs given the package size and forward voltage characteristics.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the general-purpose rectifier diode category within Microchip's discrete semiconductor portfolio. Historically associated with manufacturers like Solid State Inc., it serves as a high-power solution for industrial environments. The DO-205AB package provides a balance between current capacity and mechanical mounting simplicity for through-hole assembly processes.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents from other manufacturers offering identical 900 V and 250 A ratings in the DO-205AB package. Verify that any substitute maintains the soft recovery characteristic if reverse recovery behavior is critical to the circuit design. Ensure pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values are comparable.
