1N4007-E3/53

Single Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N4007-E3/53 is a general-purpose silicon rectifier diode rated for a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000 V and a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.0 A at 75 °C ambient temperature. It features a maximum instantaneous forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at 1.0 A and a low maximum DC reverse leakage current of 5.0 μA at rated blocking voltage. The device supports a peak forward surge current of 30 A under an 8.3 ms single half-sine-wave condition. It operates within a junction and storage temperature range of -50 to +150 °C and utilizes a DO-41 (DO-204AL) molded epoxy package with matte tin-plated axial leads.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm the delivery mode and base quantity. The E3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and commercial grade material categorization, while the /53 suffix corresponds to specific packaging configurations. Ensure that the procurement specifications align with the required lead length and solderability standards defined in the datasheet.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard recovery rectifier with high voltage blocking capability is required for general-purpose applications. The DO-41 package provides robust mechanical stability for through-hole mounting. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics and derating curves if operating near the maximum temperature limits or under continuous high-current conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N4001 through 1N4007 series of general-purpose plastic rectifiers. The series shares identical electrical ratings for forward current and surge capability, differing primarily in their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings. The 1N4007 variant specifically offers the highest voltage rating within this family, making it suitable for higher voltage AC-to-DC conversion tasks.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Other manufacturers produce equivalent 1A 1000V rectifiers in the DO-41 package. Verify compatibility regarding forward voltage drop, reverse leakage current, and thermal resistance before substitution. Ensure the replacement component meets the same RoHS compliance and material categorization requirements.
