1N4001GPEHE3/54

Single Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N4001GPEHE3/54 is a glass-passivated junction plastic rectifier belonging to the Superectifier series. It features a cavity-free construction and matte tin-plated leads compliant with RoHS standards. The device provides an average forward rectified current of 1.0 A at 75 °C, with a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 50 V. It supports a peak forward surge current of 30 A for an 8.3 ms sine wave and operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Superectifier structure designed for high reliability applications
• Cavity-free glass-passivated junction construction
• Low leakage current typical value below 0.1 μA
• Matte tin plated leads solderable per J-STD-002

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• Inverter and converter circuits
• Freewheeling diodes for consumer applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix E3 confirms RoHS compliance and commercial grade status. Confirm the /54 suffix indicates delivery in 13-inch diameter paper tape and reel packaging with a base quantity of 5500 units. Ensure lead length requirements match the thermal rating specifications provided in the datasheet.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard recovery rectifier with low forward voltage drop is required. The DO-41 package accommodates through-hole mounting. Verify that the 50 V reverse voltage rating meets the circuit's peak inverse voltage requirements. Consider the 175 °C maximum junction temperature for high-temperature environments.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4001GP through 1N4007GP family of glass passivated junction plastic rectifiers manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. All members share identical electrical characteristics except for their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings, which range from 50 V to 1000 V across the series.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 1N4001 series rectifiers from different manufacturers. Ensure replacement parts maintain the DO-41 package outline and meet the same 1.0 A forward current and 50 V reverse voltage specifications.
