1N4005-E3/54

Single Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N4005-E3/54 is a general-purpose plastic rectifier diode featuring a 600 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage and a 1.0 A average forward rectified current rating. It utilizes a DO-41 (DO-204AL) molded epoxy package with matte tin-plated leads. The device exhibits a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.1 V at rated current and a low leakage current of 5.0 μA at 25 °C. It supports a peak forward surge current of 30 A for an 8.3 ms sine-wave pulse and operates within a junction temperature range of -50 to +150 °C.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix /54 corresponds to the 13-inch diameter paper tape and reel delivery mode containing 5500 units per base quantity. Confirm RoHS compliance via the E3 suffix, which indicates commercial grade material categorization meeting JESD 201 class 1A whisker test requirements. Ensure lead length specifications align with thermal resistance ratings when mounting on PCBs.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for standard AC-to-DC conversion tasks requiring robust surge handling and reliable blocking performance up to 600 V. The DO-41 through-hole package facilitates manual assembly or standard wave soldering processes. Verify that the 1.0 A continuous current rating meets the circuit's thermal dissipation needs without exceeding the derating curve limits at elevated ambient temperatures.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N4001 through 1N4007 series of general-purpose plastic rectifiers. The family shares identical mechanical dimensions and electrical characteristics except for the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating, which varies from 50 V to 1000 V across the series. The 1N4005 variant specifically addresses applications requiring 600 V blocking capability.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 1N4005 equivalents ensuring matching DO-41 package dimensions and 600 V reverse voltage ratings. Verify compatibility regarding forward voltage drop and surge current capabilities to maintain circuit integrity during replacement.
