Product details
Overview
1N4002GPEHE3/73 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated silicon rectifier diode rated for 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 1.0 A average forward current, and 30 A non-repetitive surge current. It features low leakage (5.0 μA at 25 °C), 1.1 V forward voltage at 1.0 A, and DO-41 package with matte tin-plated leads - used in AC/DC power supply input rectification and freewheeling paths in consumer-grade inverters and converters.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4002GPEHE3/73 datasheet, 1N4002GPEHE3/73 pinout, 1N4002GPEHE3/73 application, or 1N4002GPEHE3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM = 100 V, IF(AV) = 1.0 A, IR ≤ 5.0 μA, VF = 1.1 V, and DO-41 mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements a single-junction, planar, glass-passivated PN structure optimized for general-purpose rectification. Its cavity-free junction construction enhances reliability under thermal cycling and humidity stress, while the Superectifier® design ensures stable reverse recovery (trr = 2.0 μs typical) and low capacitance (CJ = 8.0 pF at 4.0 V).
Rated for operation from –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature, it supports high-surge applications via I²t = 3.7 A²s fusing rating and withstands solder dip up to 275 °C for 10 s per JESD 22-B106 - confirming suitability for wave and selective soldering processes in industrial assembly lines.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe AC input voltage headroom before breakdown in bridge or half-wave rectifiers |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A - average forward current at 75 °C ambient with 0.375" lead length; sets continuous DC output capability in linear power supplies |
| VF | 1.1 V at 1.0 A - forward voltage drop determines conduction loss and thermal dissipation in rectifier stage |
| IR | 5.0 μA at 25 °C - reverse leakage current impacts standby power and voltage hold-up in capacitive-input filters |
| trr | 2.0 μs typical - reverse recovery time affects switching losses and EMI generation in high-frequency rectifier circuits |
| TJ max. | +175 °C - maximum junction temperature enables operation in enclosed or thermally constrained enclosures without forced cooling |
| RθJA | 55 °C/W - thermal resistance from junction to ambient (PCB-mounted, 0.375" leads); used to calculate temperature rise under load |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-41 (DO-204AL), molded epoxy over glass body; UL 94 V-0 rated; cathode indicated by color band on body; matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC source or inductive load return path; must handle full IF(AV) and IFSM without bond wire failure |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to filter capacitor or load; polarity marking ensures correct orientation in series/bridge configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Superectifier® structure | Enhanced junction passivation eliminates micro-cavities, improving long-term reliability in humid or thermally cycled environments |
| Low VF = 1.1 V | Reduces conduction loss by ~15% vs. legacy 1N400x variants with higher VF, lowering heatsink requirements in compact adapters |
| IR ≤ 5.0 μA at 25 °C | Minimizes standby power drain in always-on consumer electronics, supporting Energy Star and EU CoC Tier 2 compliance |
| DO-41 with E3 suffix | RoHS-compliant matte tin plating meets JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance, ensuring solder joint integrity over 10+ year field life |
Applications
| AC/DC Wall Adapters | DC Motor Freewheeling |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rectifying 120 VAC input in low-cost offline switch-mode power supplies for IoT hubs and smart home controllers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary input rectifier in voltage-doubler or bridge configuration, converting AC line to unregulated DC bus. Use Value: 100 V VRRM provides 2× safety margin over 120 VAC RMS, while 1.1 V VF limits self-heating below 1.1 W at full load. | Use Scenario: Suppressing inductive kickback across brushed DC motors in appliance control boards and power tools. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Freewheeling diode placed anti-parallel to motor winding to clamp flyback voltage during PWM turn-off. Use Value: 30 A IFSM handles brief stall currents without degradation; 2.0 μs trr prevents oscillatory ringing during fast PWM commutation. |
| LED Driver Input Stage | Industrial Sensor Power Supply |
Use Scenario: Rectifying transformer output in constant-current LED drivers for commercial lighting fixtures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side rectifier delivering filtered DC to current-regulation IC, operating at 50/60 Hz. Use Value: Low IR (5.0 μA) preserves open-circuit voltage stability across wide temperature range, preventing false dimming triggers. | Use Scenario: Providing isolated DC bias to analog sensor front-ends in factory automation PLC modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input rectifier in small linear regulator stage powering precision op-amps and ADC references. Use Value: DO-41 footprint ensures compatibility with legacy repair stock and automated through-hole insertion equipment. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4002G-E3/73 | No "P" in part number; identical electrical specs and DO-41 package; differs only in internal process traceability code | Same use cases; no functional or layout impact | Select when sourcing from distributors listing base 1N4002G variant with E3/73 packaging |
| STPS1H100 | Schottky diode, 100 V VRRM, 1.0 A IF(AV), VF ≈ 0.85 V, but IR ≈ 100 μA at 25 °C | Better efficiency in low-voltage, high-frequency SMPS; unsuitable where low leakage is critical | Choose for reduced conduction loss in battery-powered or thermally limited designs; verify IR tolerance in high-impedance bias networks |
Compared with 1N4002GPEHE3/73, the 1N4002G-E3/73 offers identical performance with minor internal marking variance, while STPS1H100 trades lower VF for higher IR - making it viable only where leakage sensitivity is relaxed and efficiency gain justifies cost increase.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the 1N4002GPEHE3/73?
The 1N4002GPEHE3/73 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, enabling reliable operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed power supplies or industrial control cabinets without active cooling. This rating is validated per JEDEC standards and supports extended lifetime under sustained thermal stress.
Is the 1N4002GPEHE3/73 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the 1N4002GPEHE3/73 carries the E3 suffix, indicating full RoHS compliance per Directive 2011/65/EU and exemption 6a. Its matte tin-plated leads meet JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance requirements and are compatible with standard lead-free reflow and wave soldering profiles.
What does the "73" in 1N4002GPEHE3/73 signify?
The "73" in 1N4002GPEHE3/73 denotes the preferred packaging code for ammo pack delivery - containing 3000 units per pack. This format supports manual or semi-automated through-hole assembly and is distinct from tape-and-reel ("54") or bulk ("00") options.
Can the 1N4002GPEHE3/73 replace the 1N4002GP in existing designs?
Yes, the 1N4002GPEHE3/73 is a direct replacement for 1N4002GP, sharing identical electrical specifications, DO-41 package dimensions, and thermal characteristics. The "EHE3/73" suffix adds RoHS compliance and ammo-pack packaging but introduces no functional or mechanical changes.
Why is the 1N4002GPEHE3/73 marked "Not for New Designs"?
Vishay designates the 1N4002GPEHE3/73 as "Not for New Designs" because newer alternatives with improved VF, trr, or packaging exist - not due to reliability issues. The part remains fully supported for repair, maintenance, and legacy production, with documented parametric stability and long-term availability commitments.
