1N4002E-E3/54

Single Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N4002E-E3/54 is a general-purpose plastic rectifier featuring a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 100 V and a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.0 A. It utilizes a DO-41 (DO-204AL) molded epoxy body with matte tin-plated leads. 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. Peak non-repetitive forward surge current reaches 30 A for an 8.3 ms sine wave or 45 A for a square waveform. Operating junction temperature ranges from -50 °C to +150 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Low forward voltage drop
• Low leakage current
• High forward surge capability

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification of power supplies
• Inverters
• Converters
• Freewheeling diodes application

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official Vishay documentation to confirm compliance with RoHS standards and material categorization requirements. Ensure that the ordering suffix matches the required delivery mode, such as paper tape and reel or ammo pack packaging. Cross-reference thermal resistance values and lead length specifications during integration planning to maintain operational safety margins within the specified temperature range.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard recovery rectifier with a 100 V reverse voltage rating is required for general-purpose applications. The DO-41 package accommodates through-hole mounting configurations suitable for various circuit board layouts. Evaluate the 1.0 A continuous current capacity against the expected load profile to ensure adequate performance under steady-state conditions without exceeding thermal limits.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the Vishay 1N4001 through 1N4007 series of general-purpose plastic rectifiers. All members of this family share identical electrical characteristics regarding forward current, surge capability, and package dimensions, differing only in their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings. The 1N4002 variant specifically provides a 100 V rating within this standardized lineup.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Other manufacturers produce equivalent 1N4002 rectifiers in the DO-41 package. Verify that substitute components meet the same 100 V reverse voltage, 1.0 A forward current, and thermal operating range specifications before implementation.
