GL34G-E3/83

Single Diodes Overview

The Vishay GL34G-E3/83 is a surface-mount glass passivated junction rectifier belonging to the SUPERECTIFIER family. It features a DO-213AA (GL34) package with a maximum average forward rectified current of 0.5 A and a peak forward surge current of 10 A. The device provides a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400 V, a typical instantaneous forward voltage of 1.2 V at 0.5 A, and a typical reverse recovery time of 1.5 µs. Operating temperatures range from -65 °C to +175 °C.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Superectifier structure designed for high reliability conditions
• Low forward voltage drop and low leakage current characteristics
• Ideal for automated placement processes
• Meets MSL level 1 per J-STD-020 standards

Single Diodes Applications

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

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix /83 corresponds to the required 9000-unit reel quantity. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated by the E3 suffix. Ensure the component meets environmental standards such as MIL-S-19500 if applicable to your design requirements. Validate terminal solderability against J-STD-002 specifications before integration.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 400 V reverse voltage rating is required alongside a 0.5 A continuous current capacity. The DO-213AA package suits space-constrained surface mount designs. Consider the 1.5 µs reverse recovery time for standard frequency applications. Verify thermal resistance parameters against your heat dissipation capabilities.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay GL34A through GL34J series, differentiated primarily by their maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings. The GL34G variant specifically targets 400 V applications within this lineup. All variants share identical mechanical dimensions and general electrical characteristics except for voltage ratings.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Vishay GL34G variants with different packaging options, such as GL34G-E3/98. Cross-manufacturer replacements must match the 400 V rating, 0.5 A current, and DO-213AA footprint.
