That is the current should always flow from the Anode to cathode. The cathode terminal can be identified by using a grey bar as shown in the picture above. For 1N4007 Diode, the maximum current carrying capacity is 1A it withstand peaks up to 30A. Hence we can use this in circuits that are designed for less than 1A. The reverse current is 5uA which is negligible. The power dissipation of this diode is 3W. Applications of Diode • Can be used to prevent reverse polarity problem • Half Wave and Full Wave rectifiers • Used as a protection device • Current flow regulators 2D representation (DO-41)

1N4007 is a PN junction silicon rectifier diode that belongs to the 1N400x series family. Due to its small size and low cost, it is an ideal diode for a wide range of applications. For example: in electrical circuits where rectifications of the electrical signal are needed, in voltage regulators, inverters, converters, etc. • • • • • • • • • • What is the purpose of a diode? Diodes are used in a circuit to ensure that the electrical current flows in one direction only. Due to this, they are used for converting AC to DC power. 1N4007 is one such diode, used in power supplies to prevent a negative voltage supply from causing problems in a circuit. What are Rectifier Diodes? 1N4007 is a rectifier diode. Here’s what it means- A rectifier diode is a semiconductor diode with higher current ratings, higher reverse voltage ratings, higher leakage current, and higher junction capacitance. Due to these parameters, these diodes are used in rectifier circuits for the conversion of AC to DC, and hence the name, rectifier diode. From the construction point of view, these are solid-state devices made of semiconductor material that replaced vacuum valves for the rectification of the electrical signal. What is the 1N400X Recifier Diode series? The 1N400x series was originally introduced by Motorola’s Semiconductor Products Division registered at JEDEC in 1963 for military and industrial applications. 1N400x (1N4001 or 1N4000) series belongs to the family of 1 Ampere silicon rectifier diode...

The 1N4007belongs to a sort of 1 A general-purpose silicon rectifier diode, commonly used in AC adapters for common household appliances. It is fairly low-speed rectifier diode, being inefficient for square waves of more than 15 kHz. The 1N4007 diode is a standard recovery rectifier with a molded plastic case. The maximum current carrying capacity is 1A and it withstands peak up to 30A. So we can use this diode in circuits that are designed for less than 1A. The reverse current is 5uA which is negligible but it can withstand reverse voltage peak up to 1000V. 1N4007 Diode Datasheet • Vr – Reverse Voltage, 1000 V • If – Forward Current, 1 A • Type, Standard Recovery Rectifiers • Configuration, Single • Vf – Forward Voltage, 1 V • Max Surge Current, 30 A • Ir – Reverse Current, 5 uA • Minimum Operating Temperature, – 65 C • Maximum Operating Temperature, + 150 C • Diffused Junction • High Current Capability and Low Forward Voltage Drop • Surge Overload Rating to 30A Peak • Low Reverse Leakage Current • Lead Free Finish, RoHS Compliant Diode 1N4007 is used in a wide range in circuits, the most common applications: • Used to prevent reverse polarity problem • Used as a protection device • Half wave and full wave rectifiers • Current flow regulators • Power management • Signal processing 1N4007 Diode Pinout 1N4007 rectifier diode has in total 2 pins. However, you need to know functions of every pins before it can work better for you. 1N4007 owns a cathode (-) and anode (+). In t...

The 1N400x (or 1N4001 or 1N4000 The 1N540x (or 1N5400) series is a similarly popular family of diodes rated 3Amperes. These diodes use the larger DO-201AD axial package to dissipate heat better. History [ ] The 1N400x series was originally introduced by Semiconductor Data Manual in 1965, as replacements for 1N2609 through 1N2617. Electrical Design News in 1968, along with the now lesser-known 1.5A 1N5391 series. Overview [ ] These devices are widely used and recommended for general-purpose power-frequency rectifier use. These are fairly low-speed rectifier diodes, being inefficient for square waves of more than 15kHz. [ verification needed] They are not designed for switching applications; datasheets often don't specify any information on their turn-on and turn-off characteristics. Compared with signal diodes, rectifier diodes generally have higher current ratings, can have much higher reverse voltage ratings, but have higher The following table lists part numbers in the 1N400x, 1N540x, and other popular general-purpose silicon rectifier diode families.
