Product details
Overview
1N4934L-T from Diodes Incorporated is a 1.0A fast recovery rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 100V peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.2V forward voltage drop at 1.0A, and 200ns reverse recovery time - deployed in AC/DC input stage rectification for offline switch-mode power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4934L-T datasheet, 1N4934L-T pinout, 1N4934L-T application, or 1N4934L-T equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM derating margin, tRR impact on switching loss, thermal resistance (RθJA = 100°C/W), and surge capability (IFSM = 30A) in high-reliability industrial power converters.
Technical Context
This discrete silicon PN-junction rectifier uses diffused junction technology to achieve fast recovery (tRR = 200ns) with low forward conduction loss (VFM = 1.2V @ 1.0A) and minimal reverse leakage (IRM = 5.0μA @ 25°C). It operates across –65°C to +150°C and supports single-phase, half-wave rectification under resistive or inductive loads at 60Hz.
The device is optimized for efficiency-critical 1A-level AC/DC front-ends where reduced switching loss and thermal management are prioritized over ultra-fast (sub-50ns) or ultra-high-voltage (>600V) operation. Its DO-41 package enables through-hole mounting with 9.5mm lead length for standardized PCB layout and thermal derating per Fig. 1.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - Maximum allowable repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; sets minimum insulation margin for 85–265VAC input designs. |
| IO @ TA=75°C | 1.0 A - Continuous average forward current rating at 75°C ambient; defines usable DC output current in thermally constrained layouts. |
| VFM @ IF=1.0A | 1.2 V - Forward voltage drop determining conduction loss (1.2W @ 1A) and thermal rise in linear rectifier stages. |
| tRR | 200 ns - Reverse recovery time governing switching loss and EMI generation during turn-off in 20–100kHz SMPS topologies. |
| IFSM (8.3ms) | 30 A - Non-repetitive surge current handling capacity; ensures robustness against line transients and cold-start inrush. |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance; used with Pdiss to calculate worst-case junction temperature rise on standard FR-4 PCB. |
| IRM @ 25°C | 5.0 μA - Reverse leakage at rated blocking voltage; impacts standby power loss and high-impedance bias network stability. |
Pinout & Package
DO-41 molded plastic package with axial leads; cathode identified by band marking; RoHS-compliant bright tin plating; UL 94V-0 flammability rating; 0.35g typical mass.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC source or transformer secondary; must withstand full surge current and thermal stress during conduction. |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Marked with band; ties to output capacitor positive rail; reverse voltage appears here during off-state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Isolates charger input from inverter output while enabling bidirectional energy flow control. Use Value: DO-41 axial form factor allows manual replacement in field-serviceable units; 100V VRRM accommodates 90VAC brownout conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast recovery rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RS1M-T | VRRM = 1000V, tRR = 500ns, VFM = 1.3V @ 1.0A, same DO-41 package | Higher voltage margin but slower recovery; suited for higher-line or transient-prone grids | Select when system requires >600V isolation or has elevated line surge exposure. |
| 1N4004-T | VRRM = 400V, tRR ≈ 2μs (standard recovery), VFM = 1.1V @ 1.0A, same DO-41 | Lower cost, higher conduction efficiency, but unsuitable for >20kHz switching due to slow recovery | Prefer only in low-frequency (<1kHz), non-switching rectifiers where EMI and loss are not critical. |
Compared with RS1M-T and 1N4004-T, the 1N4934L-T delivers optimal balance of speed (200ns), voltage (100V), and conduction loss (1.2V) for 20–100kHz SMPS input stages - making it more efficient than 1N4004-T and more responsive than RS1M-T in mid-frequency power conversion.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for 1N4934L-T?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (TJ) is +150°C, with storage temperature matching this range. Operation above this limit risks permanent parametric shift or catastrophic failure. Derating curves in the datasheet require limiting IO to ≤0.5A at +125°C ambient when using standard PCB mounting with 9.5mm lead length.
Is 1N4934L-T compatible with lead-free reflow soldering?
No - the 1N4934L-T is specified for wave or hand soldering only, with a maximum peak temperature of 260°C for 10 seconds. Its DO-41 package and axial leads are not qualified for lead-free reflow profiles (typically >260°C for >30 seconds), and thermal shock may crack the molded plastic body.
How does reverse recovery time affect EMI in a flyback converter?
A 200ns tRR reduces high-frequency ringing during diode turn-off, lowering conducted EMI in the 30–100MHz band. Slower diodes (e.g., 1N4004) generate larger di/dt-induced voltage spikes across parasitic inductances, increasing filter component stress and radiated emissions near switching nodes.
Can 1N4934L-T replace 1N4933L-T in a design?
Yes - both share identical package, thermal specs, and forward characteristics, differing only in VRRM (50V vs. 100V). Substituting 1N4934L-T for 1N4933L-T adds 50V margin against line surges and brownouts, with no change to layout, thermal design, or bill-of-materials footprint.
