1N2135AR

Single Diodes Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor 1N2135AR is a silicon standard recovery diode housed in a DO-5 (DO-203AB) stud mount package. It features a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400 V and supports a continuous forward current of 60 A. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 1.1 V at rated current and maintains a thermal resistance from junction to case of 0.65 °C/W. Operating temperatures range from -55 °C to 150 °C for both junction and storage conditions.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High surge capability with non-repetitive forward current rating of 1050 A
• Not sensitive to electrostatic discharge
• Stud serves as the cathode terminal in standard polarity configuration

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification
• Power supply circuits requiring high current handling
• Industrial equipment power stages

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part marking against the datasheet to confirm the 400 V reverse voltage rating, as this series includes variants ranging from 300 V to 600 V. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required polarity, noting that the standard version has a cathode stud while the reverse polarity variant has an anode stud. Confirm the package type is DO-5 stud mount before finalizing procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust silicon standard recovery diode is needed for high-current applications up to 60 A. The 400 V rating suits systems operating within this voltage limit. Consider the 0.65 °C/W thermal resistance for heatsinking requirements. Verify that the standard recovery speed meets the circuit timing needs, as faster or slower recovery options exist within the broader product family.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the 1N2133A through 1N2138AR series of silicon standard recovery diodes manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series shares identical physical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and current ratings, differing primarily in their voltage blocking capabilities which range from 300 V to 600 V. All variants utilize the same DO-5 stud mount package.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 1N2135A or 1N2135AR parts from different manufacturers that match the 400 V, 60 A, and DO-5 stud specifications. Cross-reference thermal resistance and forward voltage drops to ensure equivalent performance in the existing design.
