US1D-13

Single Diodes Overview

The US1D-13 is a standard recovery rectifier diode manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a maximum average forward rectified current of 1 A and a peak repetitive reverse voltage rating of 50 V. The device utilizes a DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum RMS voltage of 70 V, a maximum non-repetitive peak surge current of 30 A at 8.3 ms half-sine wave, and a maximum DC reverse leakage current of 5 µA at 50 V. The forward voltage drop is specified at 1.1 V when conducting 1 A. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +150 °C.

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required packaging configuration, as variations exist between tape-and-reel and cut-tape formats. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors prior to finalizing procurement plans. Ensure the selected variant aligns with the intended volume requirements and delivery schedules.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a compact SMA package with a 1 A current handling capability. Ensure the circuit's peak inverse voltage does not exceed the 50 V rating. Consider the thermal derating curves if operating near the maximum junction temperature limit. Verify that the package footprint matches the PCB layout constraints for DO-214AC housings.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the US series of standard recovery rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. These components are widely utilized in consumer electronics and industrial equipment where cost-effective, reliable rectification is necessary. The SMA package offers a balance between current capacity and board space efficiency compared to larger through-hole alternatives.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must maintain identical pinout, current ratings, and voltage specifications. Verify compatibility with existing thermal pads and soldering profiles. Check for equivalent recovery time and forward voltage characteristics to ensure no performance degradation in the target application.
