1N4006GH

Single Diodes Overview

The 1N4006GH is a silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a maximum average forward rectified current of 1 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 800 V. The component utilizes the DO-204AL (DO-41) axial leaded package with an isolated case construction. It is designed for general-purpose rectification applications requiring high reliability and low power loss.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High efficiency with low forward voltage drop
• High current capability suitable for demanding loads
• Low power loss operation
• Halogen-free construction compliant with IEC 61249-2-21

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• Inverter circuits
• Converter systems
• Freewheeling diode applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GH' against official Taiwan Semiconductor documentation to confirm exact material composition, such as halogen-free status or terminal plating specifications. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required environmental compliance standards and packaging format before procurement.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for through-hole mounting where an 800 V reverse voltage rating and 1 A continuous current capacity are required. Consider the DO-41 package dimensions and thermal characteristics for circuit board layout. Verify compatibility with RoHS directives if environmental compliance is mandatory for the end application.

Single Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the 1N4001 through 1N4007 series of general-purpose silicon rectifiers. These components share identical electrical ratings but differ primarily in their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings, which range from 50 V to 1000 V across the series.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 1N4006 equivalents. Verify that substitute parts meet the same DO-41 mechanical outline and electrical specifications.
