Product details
Overview
GP10-4007EHE3/73 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated junction plastic rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 400 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0 A average forward current (IF(AV)), and 30 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM). It delivers low forward voltage drop (1.3 V at 1.0 A), low leakage current (5.0 μA at 25 °C), and fast reverse recovery time (3.0 μs), making it suitable for general-purpose power supply rectification and freewheeling in consumer-grade inverters and converters.
For engineers reviewing the GP10-4007EHE3/73 datasheet, GP10-4007EHE3/73 pinout, GP10-4007EHE3/73 application, or GP10-4007EHE3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 400 V blocking capability, DO-41 through-hole package compatibility, thermal resistance of 55 °C/W, cavity-free glass-passivated junction reliability, and RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated leads per J-STD-002.
Technical Context
This device is a single silicon PN-junction rectifier with superectifier structure, optimized for high-reliability general-purpose AC/DC conversion. Its cavity-free glass-passivated junction ensures stable performance under thermal cycling and humidity stress, while the DO-41 molded epoxy case meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating.
Designed for operation up to 175 °C junction temperature, GP10-4007EHE3/73 supports 8.3 ms half-sine surge events and exhibits low junction capacitance (5.0 pF at 4.0 V, 1 MHz), enabling use in moderate-frequency switching applications where low stored charge and fast turn-off are required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe AC input or DC bus voltage margin before breakdown |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A - average forward current at 0.375" lead length; sets continuous power-handling limit in linear rectifier designs |
| IFSM | 30 A - peak non-repetitive surge current for 8.3 ms; determines robustness against line transients or motor-start surges |
| VF | 1.3 V at 1.0 A - forward voltage drop; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in 50/60 Hz and low-kHz rectifiers |
| trr | 3.0 μs - reverse recovery time; limits usable frequency range and influences switching loss in freewheeling paths |
| RθJA | 55 °C/W - thermal resistance junction-to-ambient; used to calculate junction temperature rise under given PCB layout conditions |
| IR | 5.0 μA at 25 °C - DC reverse leakage; critical for low-power standby circuits and high-impedance bias networks |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4007G | VRRM = 1000 V; VF = 1.1 V @ 1.0 A; trr ≈ 30 μs; same DO-41 package | Higher blocking voltage but slower recovery; less suitable for high-frequency freewheeling | Select when higher reverse voltage margin is needed and switching speed is not critical |
| GP10J-E3/73 | Identical part number family; same VRRM = 600 V, VF = 1.3 V, trr = 3.0 μs, DO-41 package, and E3 RoHS suffix | No functional difference; differs only in ordering code (73 = ammo pack vs. 54 = tape/reel) | Direct packaging variant - electrically and mechanically identical to GP10-4007EHE3/73 |
Compared with 1N4007G and GP10J-E3/73, GP10-4007EHE3/73 offers optimized balance of 400 V blocking, fast 3.0 μs recovery, and low leakage-making it preferable for space-constrained consumer inverters and audio supplies where 1000 V rating is unnecessary and slow recovery increases losses.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for GP10-4007EHE3/73?
The GP10-4007EHE3/73 has a maximum operating junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C. This rating allows reliable operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed power supplies or proximity to heat-generating components. Derating curves in the datasheet specify reduced IF(AV) above 75 °C ambient, and thermal design must account for RθJA = 55 °C/W under standard 0.375" lead length mounting conditions.
Is GP10-4007EHE3/73 RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, GP10-4007EHE3/73 is RoHS-compliant and lead-free. The "E3" suffix confirms compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing. Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements, and the molding compound satisfies UL 94 V-0 flammability standards. No lead or other restricted substances exceed allowable thresholds per Vishay's material declarations.
What does the "73" in GP10-4007EHE3/73 indicate?
The "73" in GP10-4007EHE3/73 is the Vishay package code denoting ammo pack packaging, containing 3000 units per pack. It does not affect electrical or mechanical specifications. The base part GP10-4007EHE3 is identical across packaging variants; "54" indicates 13" paper tape and reel (5500 units), while "73" specifies bulk ammo packaging for manual or semi-automated insertion processes.
How does GP10-4007EHE3/73 compare to standard 1N4007 in terms of reverse recovery?
GP10-4007EHE3/73 has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 3.0 μs, significantly faster than the 1N4007's ~30 μs. This 10× improvement reduces switching loss and EMI in freewheeling and converter applications. While both share DO-41 packaging and 1.0 A IF(AV), GP10-4007EHE3/73's Superectifier® structure and cavity-free passivation also deliver lower leakage and better thermal stability than legacy 1N4007 designs.
Why is GP10-4007EHE3/73 marked "Not for New Designs"?
GP10-4007EHE3/73 is marked "Not for New Designs" because Vishay has superseded the GP10x family with newer platforms offering enhanced efficiency, tighter parameter distributions, or extended temperature ranges. However, GP10-4007EHE3/73 remains fully supported for existing production, repair, and legacy system maintenance. Aetrix Electronics maintains active inventory and supply chain continuity for this part in accordance with Vishay's last-time-buy and obsolescence management policies.
