Product details
Overview
1N4001GHR0G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a glass-passivated silicon standard rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 1 A average forward current, 50 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, and 30 A non-repetitive surge current; it delivers low forward voltage (≤1.0 V at 1 A, 25°C) and low reverse leakage (≤5 µA at 25°C), suited for DC-DC converter input rectification.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4001GHR0G datasheet, 1N4001GHR0G pinout, 1N4001GHR0G application, or 1N4001GHR0G equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM margin for line transients, thermal resistance (80 °C/W) for ambient-limited layouts, surge capability for inrush handling, and RoHS/halogen-free compliance for automotive and industrial end equipment.
Technical Context
This discrete rectifier operates as a unidirectional current-conducting junction device with a single p-n die in axial-leaded DO-204AL (DO-41) package. Its glass-passivated chip junction ensures stable reverse characteristics across temperature, while pure tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
The 1N4001GHR0G exhibits a typical junction capacitance of 10 pF at 1 MHz and 4 V reverse bias, enabling predictable high-frequency behavior in switching converters. Reverse leakage remains ≤100 µA up to 125°C junction temperature, supporting reliable operation in thermally constrained environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 50 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; sets minimum insulation margin for 36 V DC bus applications. |
| IF | 1 A - Continuous average forward current; defines steady-state power dissipation limit (≈1 W at VF = 1 V). |
| IFSM | 30 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); supports capacitor-input filter inrush without failure. |
| VF | ≤1.0 V @ 1 A, 25°C - Forward voltage drop directly determines conduction loss and thermal load in linear rectification stages. |
| RθJA | 80 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance; used to calculate max ambient temperature for safe 1 A operation without heatsinking. |
| IR | ≤5 µA @ 25°C, ≤100 µA @ 125°C - Reverse leakage current impacts standby power and voltage hold-up in high-impedance circuits. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-204AL (DO-41), axial-leaded, glass-passivated silicon rectifier in molded epoxy case meeting UL 94V-0; cathode indicated by band; weight ≈0.330 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC source or transformer secondary; must withstand full surge current and reverse recovery stress. |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output capacitor or load; polarity marking critical for correct installation in bridge or half-wave configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| AEC-Q101 qualified option (1N4001GH) | Validated for automotive under-hood use per stress test requirements, including temperature cycling and HTRB. |
| RoHS and halogen-free compliance | Meets IEC 61249-2-21; eliminates brominated flame retardants and satisfies EU/China environmental directives for PCB assembly. |
| Junction capacitance: 10 pF | Minimizes high-frequency displacement current during switching transitions, reducing EMI in SMPS front-end rectifiers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar standard rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor 1N4001FS | VRRM = 50 V, IF = 1 A, RθJA = 75 °C/W, same DO-41 package | No AEC-Q101 option available; RoHS-compliant but not halogen-free | Select when lower thermal resistance is prioritized and automotive qualification is not required. |

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the 1N4001GHR0G?
The 1N4001GHR0G has a maximum junction temperature (TJMAX) of +150°C, verified per absolute maximum ratings in the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet P2104. This rating enables operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed power supplies or under-hood automotive locations when derated per the forward current derating curve. Thermal design must ensure junction temperature stays below this limit under worst-case load and ambient conditions.
Is the 1N4001GHR0G AEC-Q101 qualified?
No - the 1N4001GHR0G is not AEC-Q101 qualified. The AEC-Q101 variant is designated as 1N4001GH (with "H" suffix). The "R0G" suffix in 1N4001GHR0G indicates reel packaging (5,000 pcs/tape & reel) and green compound, but does not imply automotive qualification. For automotive applications, specify 1N4001GH or confirm qualification status via Taiwan Semiconductor's official product change notices.
What does the "R0G" suffix mean in 1N4001GHR0G?
The "R0G" suffix in 1N4001GHR0G denotes tape-and-reel packaging: "R" = reel, "0" = standard reel size (13-inch), "G" = green (halogen-free) molding compound. It is not part of the base device type (1N4001G) and carries no electrical or reliability meaning beyond packaging and material compliance. The core device remains the 1N4001G rectifier with 50 V VRRM and 1 A IF.
Can the 1N4001GHR0G replace a 1N4002G in a 100 V circuit?
No - the 1N4001GHR0G has a VRRM of only 50 V and is not rated for 100 V reverse applications. Substituting it for a 1N4002G (100 V VRRM) risks premature breakdown and catastrophic failure under normal operating voltage. Always match or exceed the required VRRM margin; for 100 V circuits, use 1N4002G or higher-voltage variants within the same family.
What is the forward voltage drop of the 1N4001GHR0G at 1 A and 125°C?
The forward voltage (VF) of the 1N4001GHR0G is specified as ≤1.0 V at 1 A and 25°C. At 125°C, VF decreases due to negative temperature coefficient of silicon diodes; typical data shows ~0.85 V at 1 A and 125°C. This reduction lowers conduction loss in high-temperature operation but must be confirmed using the device's forward characteristic curve (Fig.4 in P2104) for precise thermal modeling.
