1N6481HE3/96

Overview

The Vishay 1N6481HE3/96 is a surface-mount glass passivated junction rectifier with a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400 V and an average forward rectified current of 1.0 A. It features a peak forward surge current capability of 30 A, a maximum DC reverse current of 10 μA at rated blocking voltage, and a typical junction capacitance of 8.0 pF. The device operates within a temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C and utilizes the GL41 (DO-213AB) package.

Feature Summary

• Superectifier structure designed for high reliability conditions
• Low forward voltage drop and low leakage current characteristics
• High forward surge current capability
• Meets MSL level 1 per J-STD-020 with LF maximum peak of 250 °C

Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• Inverter and converter circuits
• Freewheeling diodes for consumer electronics
• Automotive applications
• Telecommunication equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity by checking manufacturer markings against official datasheet specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and ensure the ordering suffix matches required packaging formats. Validate technical parameters against application requirements before procurement to avoid compatibility issues.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 400 V reverse voltage rating and 1.0 A continuous current are required in a compact surface-mount form factor. Consider its high thermal operating limit and surge capability for demanding environments. Ensure PCB layout accommodates the specific DO-213AB footprint dimensions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay Superectifier series, which includes variants ranging from 50 V to 1000 V reverse voltage ratings. All members share identical physical packages and electrical characteristics except for their specific voltage breakdown thresholds. The series is engineered for automated placement and general-purpose rectification tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Vishay parts within the same document number 88527 family, such as 1N6480 or 1N6482, provided the voltage rating aligns with circuit requirements. Cross-manufacturer equivalents must match the DO-213AB package and 400 V / 1.0 A specifications.
