BYD33KGP-E3/73

Overview

The BYD33KGP-E3/73 is a standard general-purpose rectifier diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor – Diodes Division. It features a maximum DC reverse voltage (Vr) of 800 V and an average forward rectified current (Io) of 1 A. The component utilizes a DO-204AL (DO-41) axial through-hole package. This device is designed for general-purpose applications requiring reliable rectification in power supply circuits.

Feature Summary

• High reverse voltage capability of 800 V
• 1 A average forward current rating
• Standard recovery speed for general-purpose use

Applications

• General-purpose rectification
• Power supply circuits
• Inverter circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact package type DO-204AL against design requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated by the suffix. Check current availability as the part may be obsolete or have limited stock from authorized distributors. Ensure thermal management aligns with the 1 A continuous current rating.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an 800 V blocking voltage and 1 A current capacity are required in an axial leaded package. Compare forward voltage drop characteristics at operating currents against alternative 800 V diodes. Consider peak repetitive reverse voltage limits for specific circuit topologies to ensure adequate safety margins.

Part Context

This part belongs to Vishay's standard rectifier diode portfolio, specifically the BYD series. These devices are engineered for robust performance in industrial and consumer electronics. The DO-204AL package provides mechanical stability for automated assembly processes while maintaining electrical isolation standards for low-voltage AC/DC conversion tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 1N4006GP series. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal dissipation capabilities before substitution. Ensure the replacement meets the same 800 V reverse voltage and 1 A current specifications.
