1N3214R

Single Diodes Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor 1N3214R is a silicon standard recovery diode housed in a DO-5 (DO-203AB) stud mount package. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 600 V and supports a continuous forward current of 15 A. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C. The 'R' suffix indicates reversed polarity, where the stud terminal functions as the anode.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High surge capability for handling transient currents
• Not sensitive to electrostatic discharge

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification
• Power supply circuits
• Industrial power conversion systems

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage rating and polarity configuration required for the application. Confirm that the stud mounting interface matches the thermal management design. Ensure the operating temperature limits align with the system environment. Check for any specific ordering suffixes that may alter electrical characteristics or physical dimensions.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust standard recovery diode is needed for moderate current applications. The DO-5 package allows for efficient heat dissipation through direct stud mounting. Consider the 600 V blocking voltage and 15 A current capacity against circuit requirements. Evaluate the thermal resistance specifications for proper heatsink selection.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N3212 through 1N3214R series of silicon standard recovery diodes. The series offers varying reverse voltage ratings from 400 V to 600 V while maintaining consistent current handling capabilities. These devices are designed for reliability in demanding power electronics environments.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 600 V, 15 A stud-mount standard recovery diodes in the DO-5 package. Verify pinout compatibility, especially regarding the reversed polarity configuration if replacing a non-R variant.
