1N2130A

Single Diodes Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor 1N2130A is a silicon standard recovery rectifier diode rated for a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 150 V and a continuous forward current of 60 A. It features a DO-5 (DO-203AB) stud mount package with the stud serving as the cathode. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 1.1 V at 60 A and a non-repetitive surge current capability of 1050 A. Thermal resistance from junction to case is specified at 0.65 °C/W, supporting operation within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to 150 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High surge current capability for handling transient loads
• Stud-mounted construction facilitating direct thermal management
• Standard polarity configuration with cathode connected to the mounting base

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• Industrial motor drive circuits
• Battery charging systems

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number corresponds to the standard polarity variant where the stud functions as the cathode. Confirm the required thermal interface material compatibility with the DO-5 package base for effective heat dissipation. Ensure the application circuit design accounts for the 150 V reverse voltage rating and the 60 A continuous current limits under expected operating temperatures.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust silicon rectifier with high surge tolerance is required for medium-voltage applications. The DO-5 package allows for efficient heat transfer through direct mounting to a heatsink. Consider the 1.1 V forward voltage drop for efficiency calculations and verify that the system can accommodate the physical dimensions of the stud mount terminal.

Single Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the 1N2128A through 1N2131AR series of silicon standard recovery diodes manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series offers varying reverse voltage ratings from 50 V to 200 V while maintaining a consistent 60 A forward current capacity and identical thermal characteristics across all variants in the lineup.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 1N2130A or 1N2130AR equivalents from different manufacturers ensuring matching 150 V reverse voltage, 60 A current rating, and DO-5 package dimensions.
