1N4006GP-M3/54

Single Diodes Overview

The 1N4006GP-M3/54 is a general-purpose silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. It features an 800 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage and supports a 1.0 A average forward rectified current. The device utilizes a DO-41 (DO-204AL) molded epoxy package with matte tin-plated leads. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.1 V at 1.0 A, a maximum DC reverse current of 5.0 μA at rated blocking voltage, and a peak forward surge current capability of 30 A for an 8.3 ms sine wave.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

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

Single Diodes Applications

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

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm compliance status and packaging format. The E3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and meets JESD 201 class 1A whisker test requirements. Confirm the delivery mode matches project needs, as options include paper tape and reel or ammo pack packaging. Ensure lead length specifications align with assembly constraints.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when an 800 V reverse voltage rating is required for standard rectification tasks. The DO-41 through-hole package facilitates manual insertion and standard PCB mounting. Verify thermal management requirements against the specified junction temperature range and thermal resistance values for the intended operating environment.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N400x series of general-purpose plastic rectifiers from Vishay. The series covers voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V, sharing identical current and package specifications across variants. The M3 designation typically denotes lead-free construction within the manufacturer's product line.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 1N4006 equivalents. Verify that substitute parts meet the same 800 V reverse voltage, 1.0 A current, and DO-41 package dimensions.
