1N4003GPHE3/73

Single Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N4003GPHE3/73 is a glass-passivated junction plastic rectifier belonging to the SUPERECTIFIER series. It provides a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V and supports a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.0 A at 75 °C with 9.5 mm lead length. The device features a low forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 1.0 A and a typical reverse leakage current of 5.0 μA at rated DC blocking voltage. It withstands a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 30 A for an 8.3 ms sine-wave pulse. Operating temperatures range from -65 °C to +175 °C, housed in a DO-41 (DO-204AL) package.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status via official datasheets. Validate JEDEC registration values against specific application requirements. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed during storage and assembly to maintain product integrity.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for standard recovery applications requiring robust surge capability and extended temperature operation. Evaluate thermal resistance parameters relative to ambient conditions and lead lengths. Consider the cavity-free glass passivation for environments demanding high reliability. Verify compatibility with existing circuit designs regarding reverse voltage ratings and forward current limits.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N400xGP family of glass-passivated rectifiers. The GP designation indicates the Superectifier structure, while E3 denotes RoHS compliance and M3 indicates lead-free termination. The /73 suffix specifies Ammo Pack packaging. These components share common electrical characteristics within the series, differentiated primarily by their reverse voltage ratings.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Vishay 1N400xGP variants with matching voltage ratings. Cross-brand replacements must match the 1.0 A current rating, 200 V reverse voltage, and DO-41 package dimensions. Verify equivalent thermal resistance and surge current capabilities before implementation.
