Product details
Overview
1N4006G-T from Diodes Incorporated is a glass passivated silicon rectifier diode rated for 800 V peak repetitive reverse voltage, 1.0 A average forward current, and 30 A non-repetitive surge current, used in AC/DC power supply front-end rectification, DC power adapter input stages, and industrial control power conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4006G-T datasheet, 1N4006G-T pinout, 1N4006G-T application, or 1N4006G-T equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse voltage margin (800 V), thermal resistance (100 °C/W), forward voltage drop at 1.0 A (1.0 V), surge capability (30 A), and DO-41 package compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a single-phase, half-wave rectifier under 60 Hz resistive or inductive loads. Its glass passivated die construction ensures stable junction performance and enhanced moisture resistance versus epoxy-passivated alternatives.
Rated for operation from –65 °C to +175 °C, it exhibits 5.0 µA peak reverse current at 25 °C and 50 µA at 125 °C under full-rated blocking voltage, with typical reverse recovery time of 2.0 µs and junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 100 °C/W.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 800 V - Maximum peak repetitive reverse voltage; defines safe AC input voltage handling (e.g., ≤560 V RMS) before breakdown. |
| IO @ 75°C | 1.0 A - Continuous DC output current capability when ambient temperature is maintained at 75 °C with standard lead length. |
| IFSM | 30 A - Single half-sine surge rating; supports brief inrush currents during power-up without failure. |
| VFM @ 1.0 A | 1.0 V - Forward voltage drop at rated DC current; determines conduction loss (1.0 W dissipation at 1.0 A). |
| IRM @ 25°C | 5.0 µA - Leakage current at rated DC blocking voltage; critical for low-power standby circuits and high-impedance bias networks. |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to ambient; sets maximum allowable power dissipation (1.0 W → ΔT = 100 °C rise) in still air. |
Pinout & Package
DO-41 plastic package: axial-leaded, molded black thermoplastic case (UL 94V-0), cathode band marking, tin-plated leads solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC source or transformer secondary; must withstand surge and reverse polarity transients. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit point | Connected to filter capacitor or load; marked by visible band; carries full rectified DC current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated die | Enables stable long-term reverse leakage performance and improved humidity resistance vs. epoxy passivation. |
| 30 A surge rating | Supports cold-start inrush into capacitive-input power supplies without degradation or failure. |
| RoHS-compliant finish | Tin-plated leads meet EU Directive 2002/95/EC with no exemptions required for lead-free assembly. |
| 100 °C/W RθJA | Allows direct mounting on PCB without heatsink for ≤1.0 W continuous dissipation in natural convection. |
Applications
| AC/DC Power Adapter Input Stage | Industrial Motor Control Power Supply |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Rectifying 120/230 VAC mains input in wall-wart adapters feeding 5–24 VDC outputs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary rectifier converting AC to pulsating DC prior to bulk capacitance and regulation. Use Value: 800 V VRRM provides 2× safety margin over 230 VAC line peaks (≈325 V), ensuring reliability across global voltage ranges. | Use Scenario: Converting transformer-derived AC to DC for logic supply and gate driver rails in variable-frequency drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage bridge leg (single diode in half-wave or full-wave configuration) supplying auxiliary power. Use Value: 30 A IFSM tolerates repeated motor startup surges without thermal runaway or parameter shift. |
| LED Driver Bulk Rectification | UPS Battery Charging Circuit |
Use Scenario: Rectifying AC input in constant-current LED drivers for street lighting or commercial fixtures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Front-end uncontrolled rectifier feeding buck or flyback converter primary side. Use Value: Low 1.0 V VFM minimizes conduction loss at 1 A, improving overall system efficiency and reducing thermal stress on PCB traces. | Use Scenario: Rectifying AC to charge sealed lead-acid or LiFePO₄ battery banks in offline UPS systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-wave or full-wave rectifier in linear or switch-mode charger front end. Use Value: –65 °C to +175 °C operating range supports reliable operation in battery enclosures subject to wide ambient swings. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4006RLG | Same electrical specs; lead-free, RoHS-compliant, but supplied in bulk (not tape-and-reel) | No difference in circuit function; only packaging format differs | Select for manual assembly or low-volume prototyping where reel logistics are unnecessary |
| STTH1R08 | Faster trr (≈150 ns vs. 2.0 µs); higher VRRM (800 V same); lower VFM (0.95 V typ.) | Better suited for higher-frequency switching or reduced EMI in SMPS PFC stages | Choose when reverse recovery speed impacts system efficiency or noise, not for basic line-frequency rectification |
Compared with 1N4006G-T, 1N4006RLG offers identical performance in bulk packaging, while STTH1R08 delivers faster recovery and marginally lower forward drop-valuable in high-frequency designs but unnecessary for 50/60 Hz applications where cost and proven reliability dominate.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable ambient temperature for continuous 1.0 A operation?
The 1N4006G-T is rated for 1.0 A average forward current at TA = 75 °C with leads held at ambient at 9.5 mm from the case. At higher ambient temperatures, derating is required per Figure 1 in DS29002; at 100 °C ambient, maximum IO drops to approximately 0.75 A.
Can 1N4006G-T be used in a full-wave bridge configuration?
Yes - four 1N4006G-T diodes can be assembled into a discrete full-wave bridge rectifier. Each device handles one quadrant; the 800 V VRRM rating ensures safe operation with up to 400 VAC input (peak ≈566 V), well within its reverse voltage limit.
Is the DO-41 package compatible with automated through-hole insertion equipment?
Yes - the DO-41 package has standardized axial lead spacing and diameter per JEDEC DO-41 outline. Its 2.00–2.72 mm lead diameter and 4.06–5.21 mm body width are supported by common wave solder and selective soldering tooling, including tape-and-reel feeders for auto-insertion.
How does the glass passivation affect long-term reliability compared to epoxy-passivated diodes?
Glass passivation provides superior moisture barrier properties and thermal stability versus epoxy, resulting in lower long-term IR drift and higher resistance to bias-stress degradation in humid or high-temperature environments, as validated in Diodes Incorporated's accelerated life testing per JESD22-A108.
