Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as packaging options vary significantly between tape-and-reel, ammo pack, and bulk configurations. Confirm compliance requirements such as halogen-free status if necessary by checking for additional suffixes. Ensure procurement channels are authorized distributors to guarantee product authenticity and traceability. Review the manufacturer's general terms and conditions regarding liability and warranty coverage prior to purchase.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring robust fast recovery performance in a standard DO-41 through-hole package. The 400 V rating makes it suitable for medium-voltage rectification tasks where low leakage is critical. Consider the thermal resistance and derating curves for high ambient temperature environments. Verify that the 1.0 A continuous current rating aligns with the specific load requirements of the target circuit design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4933GP through 1N4937GP series manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series shares common physical dimensions and electrical structural features, differentiated primarily by their peak reverse voltage ratings. The 1N4936GP variant specifically targets the 400 V segment of this family, providing a standardized solution for general-purpose fast recovery needs across various industrial and consumer electronics sectors.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the Vishay 1N4936GP-E3/54 and onsemi 1N4936RLG. These alternatives share similar DO-41 packaging and core electrical specifications. Verify pinout compatibility and exact voltage/current margins before implementation. Note that minor variations in forward voltage or recovery time may exist between manufacturers.
