1N4150

Single Diodes Overview

The Diotec Semiconductor 1N4150 is a small signal switching diode designed for high-speed applications. It features a maximum average forward current of 200 mA and a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 50 V. The device exhibits a very low reverse recovery time of less than 4 ns and a junction capacitance of approximately 4 pF. Maximum power dissipation is rated at 500 mW, with an operating junction temperature range from -50°C to +175°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Extremely fast switching speed suitable for high-frequency signal processing
• Low junction capacitance minimizes signal distortion during transitions
• Low leakage current ensures minimal power loss in the off-state

Single Diodes Applications

• High-speed switching circuits
• Signal processing systems
• Pulse generation and shaping

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when purchasing, as standard commercial grades differ from automotive-qualified variants. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS and REACH status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors before finalizing procurement specifications.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring rapid response times and low parasitic capacitance. Ensure the circuit operates within the specified 50 V reverse voltage limit and 200 mA forward current rating. Consider thermal derating if ambient temperatures exceed standard conditions.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to Diotec's family of silicon planar switching diodes. It shares structural similarities with the 1N4148 and 1N4448 but is distinguished by its specific 50 V reverse voltage rating. The device utilizes a glass-sealed DO-35 package for reliable through-hole mounting.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

The 1N4148 and 1N4448 are functionally similar switching diodes within the same product family. Verify that the alternative part meets the required 50 V reverse voltage specification and matches the physical package dimensions for direct substitution.
