1N5404RL

Overview

The onsemi 1N5404RL is an axial-lead standard recovery rectifier designed for power supply applications. It features a maximum average rectified forward current of 3.0 A and a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 400 V. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +170°C and withstands a non-repetitive peak surge current of 200 A. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 1.0 V at 3.0 A and a maximum reverse current of 10 μA at rated DC voltage and 25°C ambient temperature.

Feature Summary

• High surge current capability
• Low forward voltage drop
• Void-free economical plastic package

Applications

• Power supplies
• General-purpose rectification in resistive or inductive loads

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix RL against official documentation to confirm tape and reel packaging details. Ensure the component matches the required voltage and current ratings for the target circuit design before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring robust surge handling and low conduction losses. Verify thermal resistance requirements based on the specific mounting method, as junction-to-ambient thermal resistance varies with lead length and board copper surface area.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5400 through 1N5408 series of axial-lead standard recovery rectifiers manufactured by onsemi. These devices are classified as preferred components for general-purpose use, offering high current density relative to their small physical size.

Replacement Considerations

Other parts within the 1N5400–1N5408 series may serve as substitutes if voltage ratings align. Cross-manufacturer equivalents must be verified for matching electrical parameters and mechanical dimensions.
