1N4151W-G3-18

Single Diodes Overview

The 1N4151W-G3-18 is a small signal fast switching diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It utilizes standard silicon technology and is housed in an SOD-123 surface-mount package. The device supports a maximum DC reverse voltage of 50 V and an average rectified forward current of 150 mA. Key electrical characteristics include a forward voltage of 1 V at 50 mA, a reverse leakage current of 50 nA at 50 V, and a reverse recovery time of 4 ns. The junction operating temperature range extends from -55°C to 150°C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix G3-18 against official Vishay documentation to confirm RoHS compliance and packaging details. Ensure the component matches the required SOD-123 footprint and electrical ratings for your circuit design. Cross-reference the datasheet for any recent product change notifications or obsolescence notices before finalizing procurement plans.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a small-signal fast-switching diode with automotive qualification is required in a compact surface-mount package. The 50 V reverse voltage rating suits low-voltage signal processing applications. Consider the 150 mA current limit and 4 ns recovery time for compatibility with target circuit speeds and power constraints.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4151 family of small signal switching diodes produced by Vishay. The 'W' designation indicates the SOD-123 surface-mount case style, while the 'G3' suffix typically denotes Green/RoHS-compliant construction. The '-18' suffix specifies the reel quantity or tape-and-reel packaging configuration used for automated assembly processes.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

The 1N4151W-E3-08 is listed as a manufacturer-recommended alternative within the same series. Verify pinout compatibility and exact electrical parameter tolerances before substitution.
