1N4002-E3/53

Single Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N4002-E3/53 is a general-purpose plastic rectifier featuring a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.0 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V. It utilizes a DO-41 (DO-204AL) molded epoxy body with matte tin-plated leads for through-hole mounting. The device exhibits a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.1 V at 1.0 A and a maximum DC reverse current of 5.0 μA at rated blocking voltage. It supports a peak forward surge current of 30 A for an 8.3 ms sine-wave and 45 A for a square waveform. Operating junction and storage temperatures range from -50 °C to +150 °C.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation, as it dictates delivery mode and base quantity. Confirm RoHS compliance status and material categorization requirements prior to procurement. Ensure lead length specifications match design constraints for thermal resistance calculations. Validate that the component meets JESD 201 class 1A whisker test standards if required by the assembly process.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring standard recovery characteristics in low-frequency circuits. The 100 V rating distinguishes it within the 1N400x series for specific voltage levels. Consider the thermal resistance values when designing heat dissipation strategies. Verify compatibility with solder dip processes up to 275 °C for 10 seconds per JESD 22-B106 standards during assembly.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N4001 through 1N4007 series of general-purpose plastic rectifiers. All variants share identical electrical parameters except for the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage, which ranges from 50 V to 1000 V across the series. The 1N4002 variant specifically provides a 100 V blocking voltage while maintaining the series' standard 1.0 A current handling and DO-41 package dimensions.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same Vishay series include 1N4001-E3/53, 1N4003-E3/53, 1N4004-E3/53, 1N4005-E3/53, 1N4006-E3/53, and 1N4007-E3/53. These parts share the same package, current ratings, and thermal characteristics but differ in reverse voltage ratings. Cross-manufacturer replacements must be verified for matching voltage, current, and package specifications.
