1N4007

Single Diodes Overview

The Lumimax Optoelectronic Technology 1N4007 is a general-purpose silicon rectifier diode designed for AC-to-DC conversion and power supply applications. It features a DO-204AL (DO-41) axial leaded package with transfer molded plastic epoxy casing. The device supports a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.0 A and withstands a maximum recurrent peak reverse voltage of 1000 V. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.1 V, a peak forward surge current capability of 30 A, and a maximum DC reverse current of 50 μA at rated blocking voltage. The component operates within a temperature range of -50°C to +150°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Low forward voltage drop for efficient power conversion
• High forward surge current capability for transient protection
• Guaranteed high-temperature soldering performance up to 260°C
• Compliant with RoHS and REACH environmental directives

Single Diodes Applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation matches Lumimax Optoelectronic Technology, as the 1N4007 part number is widely used across multiple semiconductor producers. Confirm that the specific datasheet revision aligns with your design requirements, particularly regarding thermal resistance and lead length specifications. Ensure compliance with project-specific environmental standards such as RoHS and REACH before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard recovery rectifier with a 1000 V reverse voltage rating is required for low-frequency applications. The 1.0 A continuous current rating suits most consumer electronics and industrial control power stages. Consider the DO-41 through-hole package for manual assembly or prototyping environments where surface-mount alternatives are not feasible.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the 1N4001 through 1N4007 series of general-purpose silicon rectifiers. The series differentiates devices primarily by their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings, which range from 50 V to 1000 V. All members share identical forward current capabilities and physical packaging, allowing for flexible design choices based on circuit voltage requirements.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include 1N4007 variants from other manufacturers such as onsemi, Vishay, and Micro Commercial Components. Verify that replacement parts maintain the same DO-41 package dimensions and meet the 1000 V / 1 A electrical specifications.
