1N4006G-T

Single Diodes Overview

The Diodes Incorporated 1N4006G-T is a glass passivated silicon rectifier diode designed for general-purpose applications. It features an 800V peak repetitive reverse voltage and supports a 1.0A average rectified output current at 75°C ambient temperature. The device provides a surge overload rating of 30A peak and exhibits a low forward voltage drop of 1.0V at rated current. Packaged in the DO-41 plastic case with tin-plated leads, it operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +175°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction ensures high reliability and stable electrical characteristics.
• High current capability combined with low forward voltage drop for efficient power conversion.
• Robust surge overload rating capable of handling peak currents up to 30A.

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in AC/DC power supplies
• Bridges, inverters, and converters
• Polarity protection circuits

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix 'T' corresponds to the specified tape and reel shipping configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status by referencing the manufacturer's official documentation regarding applicable exemptions. Ensure the component meets the required environmental standards for the intended application environment before finalizing procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when an 800V blocking voltage is required for standard rectification tasks. Consider the DO-41 package dimensions for through-hole mounting constraints. Evaluate the thermal resistance and derating curves if operating near maximum temperature limits or under continuous heavy loads.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4001G through 1N4007G series of glass passivated rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. The series shares identical mechanical data and electrical characteristics except for the specific peak repetitive reverse voltage rating, which varies from 50V to 1000V across the lineup.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include Vishay 1N4006E-E3/73 and Taiwan Semiconductor 1N4006R1G. Verify that replacement parts match the 800V reverse voltage, 1A current rating, and DO-41 package specifications.

Single Diodes FAQ

What is the typical reverse recovery time for the 1N4006G-T?

The typical reverse recovery time is 2.0 µs, measured with IF = 0.5A, IR = -1A, and Irr = 0.25A.

How does the average forward current change with temperature?

The device supports 1.0A at 75°C ambient temperature. For capacitive loads, the current should be derated by 20%.
