1N4007GP

Single Diodes Overview

The Diotec Semiconductor 1N4007GP is a standard recovery rectifier diode designed for general-purpose applications. It features a maximum average forward rectified current (IFAV) of 1 A and a peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) of 1000 V. The device utilizes a glass-passivated junction within a DO-204AL (DO-41) axial through-hole package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 1.1 V at 1 A, a typical reverse recovery time of 1500 ns, and a leakage current of less than 5 µA at 25°C. It supports a junction temperature range from -50°C to +175°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Glass-passivated junction structure ensures high reliability and low leakage current.
• High thermal stability with an extended operating junction temperature range up to 175°C.
• Robust surge capability with a rated peak forward surge current of 30 A.

Single Diodes Applications

• General-purpose rectification in power supply circuits
• Free-wheeling diodes in inductive load switching
• Polarity protection in electronic systems

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm compliance requirements. Confirm that the component meets RoHS and ELV directives if required by your design specifications. Ensure the selected packaging format aligns with your assembly process capabilities. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor listings to validate authenticity and traceability before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a robust 1000 V blocking voltage and 1 A continuous current handling. The standard recovery speed is suitable for low-frequency mains rectification but may not be optimal for high-frequency switching applications. Consider the thermal resistance parameters when designing heat dissipation strategies for enclosed environments or high ambient temperatures.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the 1N400x series of silicon rectifiers, widely recognized as industry-standard devices for basic power conversion tasks. The 'GP' designation typically indicates a glass-passivated junction variant offered by Diotec Semiconductor. It serves as a direct functional equivalent to other manufacturers' 1N4007 parts, facilitating easy substitution in existing circuit designs without modification.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 1N4007GP-AQ for automotive-grade requirements and generic 1N4007 variants from other manufacturers. Verify pinout compatibility and package dimensions (DO-41) when replacing. Ensure replacement parts meet the same voltage and current ratings to maintain circuit integrity.
