1N4001-N-2-3-AP

Single Diodes Overview

The 1N4001-N-2-3-AP is a standard recovery rectifier diode manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 50 V and an average forward rectified current of 1 A. The device utilizes a DO-41 axial through-hole package with a lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum DC reverse leakage current of 5 µA at 50 V and a typical forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 1 A. The junction temperature range extends from -55°C to 150°C, ensuring reliable operation in general-purpose applications.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

This component is officially classified as obsolete and is no longer manufactured by MCC. Verification of availability should focus on distributor surplus stock or direct substitutes. Confirm that any sourced units match the original datasheet specifications, particularly regarding pinout compatibility and electrical ratings, to ensure seamless integration into existing designs without requiring circuit modifications.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this part only if legacy design compatibility is required. For new designs, consider active alternatives with identical electrical parameters. Verify that the substitute maintains the same DO-41 package dimensions and mounting style. Ensure the replacement diode meets the same thermal and voltage requirements to prevent reliability issues in the final assembly.

Single Diodes Part Context

The 1N4001-N-2-3-AP belongs to the widely recognized 1N400x series of silicon rectifier diodes. This series is standardized for general-purpose use, offering a balance of current handling and voltage blocking capabilities. The specific suffix indicates packaging and compliance details, aligning with industry-standard form factors for axial leaded components used in consumer electronics and industrial equipment.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed direct substitutes include Vishay General Semiconductor's 1N4001GP-E3/54. When replacing, verify that the alternative diode matches the 50V reverse voltage and 1A current ratings. Ensure the replacement also supports the DO-41 package and RoHS compliance standards to maintain regulatory adherence.
