RS1ML

Single Diodes Overview

The RS1ML is a surface-mount standard rectifier diode manufactured by SMC Diode Solutions. It features a maximum DC reverse voltage of 1000 V and an average forward rectified current of 1 A. The device exhibits a forward voltage drop of 1.3 V at 1 A and a reverse leakage current of 5 µA at 1000 V. Key electrical parameters include a reverse recovery time of 500 ns and a junction capacitance of 10 pF at 4 V, 1 MHz. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and utilizes the SOD-123FL package.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High voltage blocking capability with a 1000 V maximum reverse voltage rating for robust circuit protection.
• Fast recovery characteristics with a reverse recovery time of 500 ns suitable for efficient switching applications.
• Low leakage current of 5 µA at maximum rated voltage to minimize power loss in high-impedance states.
• Wide operating temperature range from -55°C to 150°C for reliable performance in demanding environments.

Single Diodes Applications

• General-purpose rectification in AC/DC converter circuits
• Protection of sensitive electronic components against voltage spikes
• Freewheeling diodes in inductive load switching applications

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct packaging format, such as tape and reel or cut tape, matches the assembly requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level prior to procurement. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with distributor databases to validate authenticity and availability. Ensure the component meets all relevant regulatory standards for the intended market.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1000 V reverse voltage rating and 1 A continuous current capacity are required in a compact surface-mount form factor. The SOD-123FL package offers space efficiency compared to larger through-hole alternatives. Consider the 500 ns reverse recovery time for compatibility with the target switching frequency. Evaluate thermal management needs based on the specified junction temperature range and forward voltage drop.

Single Diodes Part Context

The RS1ML belongs to the RS1M series of fast recovery rectifiers produced by SMC Diode Solutions. This series provides standardized performance metrics for general-purpose power conversion tasks. The ML suffix typically denotes the specific SOD-123FL package variant within the broader RS1M product line. These devices are designed to replace older through-hole rectifiers in modern compact electronics designs.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 1000 V reverse voltage, 1 A current rating, and SOD-123FL package. Verify that alternative components maintain similar reverse recovery times and forward voltage characteristics to ensure circuit compatibility without redesign.
