1N4249GP-E3/54

Overview

The Vishay 1N4249GP-E3/54 is a glass-passivated junction plastic rectifier with a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000 V and a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.0 A. It features a low forward voltage drop of 1.2 V at rated current, a maximum reverse leakage current of 1.0 μA at 25 °C, and a peak forward surge current capability of 25 A. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -65 to +160 °C and utilizes a DO-41 (DO-204AL) axial through-hole package.

Feature Summary

• Superectifier structure for high reliability applications
• Cavity-free glass-passivated junction
• Low forward voltage drop
• High forward surge capability

Applications

• General purpose rectification of power supplies

Procurement Notes

Verify the component status as Not for New Designs before procurement. Confirm that the E3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and commercial grade material categorization. Ensure the /54 suffix matches the required reel packaging format. Validate technical parameters against the official datasheet for your specific application requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1000 V blocking voltage and 1.0 A continuous current rating are required in an axial package. Consider its thermal resistance characteristics and operating temperature limits. Evaluate the Superectifier structure benefits for reliability compared to standard alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N424xGP series of glass-passivated plastic rectifiers. It shares the same physical package and general electrical architecture as lower voltage variants like the 1N4245GP through 1N4248GP, differentiated primarily by its 1000 V reverse voltage rating.
