SM3000

Single Diodes Overview

The SM3000 is a standard recovery surface-mount rectifier diode manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor. It features a DO-213AB (MELF) package and provides a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 3 kV with an average forward current rating of 1 A. The device exhibits a maximum forward voltage of 2.5 V at 1 A, a typical reverse recovery time of 1500 ns, and a low leakage current of less than 5 µA at 25°C. Peak forward surge currents reach 25 A at 50 Hz and 27 A at 60 Hz.
