1N3892R

Single Diodes Overview

The GeneSiC Semiconductor 1N3892R is a silicon fast recovery rectifier housed in a DO-4 (DO-203AA) stud-mount package. It features a maximum DC blocking voltage of 400 V and supports a continuous forward current of 12 A. The device exhibits a maximum reverse recovery time of 200 ns and a typical forward voltage drop of 1.4 V at rated current. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and includes high surge capability.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High surge non-repetitive forward current capability
• Fast recovery characteristics with low reverse recovery time
• Not sensitive to electrostatic discharge

Single Diodes Applications

• Industrial power supplies
• Motor drive circuits
• Inverter applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific polarity configuration upon ordering, as the 'R' suffix indicates reversed leads where the stud functions as the anode rather than the standard cathode. Confirm that the thermal management design accommodates the specified junction-to-case thermal resistance to ensure reliable operation within the stated temperature limits during continuous conduction.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring robust high-current handling and rapid switching speeds. Ensure the system's peak inverse voltage requirements do not exceed the 400 V DC blocking rating. Consider the stud-mount form factor for efficient heat dissipation through direct mounting to a heatsink or chassis structure.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N3889 through 1N3893 series of silicon fast recovery diodes manufactured by GeneSiC Semiconductor. The series provides standardized ratings for various voltage levels while maintaining consistent current and recovery performance across the lineup.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the 1N3892 and 1N3892A variants from the same manufacturer family.
