1N2130RA

Single Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N2130RA is a standard recovery rectifier diode housed in a DO-5 (DO-203AB) stud-mount package. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 150 V and an average forward rectified current rating of 70 A. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.25 V at 200 A and supports a surge current of up to 900 A. Operating junction temperatures range from -65°C to 200°C, with a reverse leakage current of 10 mA at rated voltage.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Standard recovery characteristics suitable for general-purpose rectification
• High thermal stability with extended operating temperature range
• Robust surge current handling capability for transient protection

Single Diodes Applications

• AC to DC conversion in low-voltage power supply circuits
• Industrial power control systems requiring high current rectification
• Battery charging applications with stud-mount requirements

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RA' against official Microchip datasheets to confirm pinout and electrical tolerances. Ensure mounting hardware compatibility with the DO-5 stud configuration. Confirm thermal interface material specifications for optimal heat dissipation within the -65°C to 200°C operating range.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 150 V blocking voltage and 70 A continuous current are required in a stud-mount form factor. Consider the 1.25 V forward voltage drop for efficiency calculations at high loads. Verify that the application environment supports the specified junction temperature limits and surge current demands.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N series of glass-passivated silicon rectifiers manufactured by Microchip Technology. The DO-5 package provides mechanical robustness for industrial environments. The 1N2130RA variant specifically addresses high-current, low-voltage rectification needs where stud mounting facilitates efficient thermal management.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with Vishay VS-1N2130RA or GeneSiC 1N2130AR for equivalent DO-5 stud-mount rectifiers. Verify that substitute parts match the 150 V reverse voltage and 60-70 A current ratings. Confirm package dimensions and terminal configurations for mechanical fit.
