1N5614GP-E3/54

Overview

The Vishay 1N5614GP-E3/54 is a glass-passivated junction rectifier diode in the SUPERECTIFIER series, housed in a DO-204AC (DO-15) axial leaded package. It features a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.0 A and a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V. The device supports a peak forward surge current of 50 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.2 V at 1.0 A, a maximum DC reverse current of 0.5 μA at rated blocking voltage, and a maximum reverse recovery time of 2.0 μs.

Feature Summary

• Superectifier structure with cavity-free glass-passivated junction for high reliability
• Low leakage current and low forward voltage drop
• High forward surge capability
• Compliant with MIL-S-19500 environmental standards

Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• Inverter circuits
• Converter applications
• Freewheeling diodes

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation before procurement. The E3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and commercial grade status, while HE3 denotes AEC-Q101 qualification. Confirm that the component meets JESD 201 class 1A whisker test requirements associated with the matte tin plated leads. Ensure the package type matches the required mechanical constraints for the target assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fast-switching rectifier with high reliability is required for general-purpose applications. The 1N5614 variant specifically provides a 200 V reverse voltage rating suitable for lower voltage AC-to-DC conversion stages. Consider the thermal resistance and derating curves if operating near the maximum ambient temperature limits. Verify that the 1.0 A continuous current rating aligns with the circuit's steady-state load requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5614GP through 1N5622GP family of SUPERECTIFIER diodes manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor. The series utilizes a glass-passivated junction technology designed to meet stringent military environmental standards. These components are engineered for high-efficiency switching applications where low leakage and robust surge handling are critical performance factors.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other parts in the 1N561xGP series or equivalent Vishay SUPERECTIFIER devices. Verify that any substitute maintains the same DO-204AC package dimensions and pinout configuration. Ensure the replacement diode meets or exceeds the 200 V reverse voltage and 1.0 A forward current specifications.
