Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source, as the 1N2795 designation appears across multiple vendors including Microchip, New Jersey Semiconductor, and MA/COM. Confirm RoHS compliance status and exact electrical tolerances against the official datasheet from the specific supplier to ensure compatibility with your design requirements.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 150 V reverse voltage rating and 5 A continuous current capacity are required in a stud-mount package. Ensure the mounting surface allows for adequate heat sinking to maintain junction temperature within safe operating limits during peak load conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the broader family of silicon power rectifiers historically associated with the 1Nxxxx series. While originally standardized by various manufacturers, current production involves entities like Microchip Technology and others who may offer variations in packaging or specific electrical characteristics under the same base number.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 150V 5A stud-mount diodes such as those from New Jersey Semiconductor if sourcing from alternative suppliers. Verify pinout and thermal interface compatibility before substituting.
