Product details
Overview
GP10-4007HM3/73 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 (1.1 V at 1.0 A), low leakage (5.0 μA at 25 °C), and fast reverse recovery (3.0 μs), suited for general-purpose power supply rectification and freewheeling in consumer inverters.
For engineers reviewing the GP10-4007HM3/73 datasheet, GP10-4007HM3/73 pinout, GP10-4007HM3/73 application, or GP10-4007HM3/73 equivalent, key selection factors include its DO-41 mechanical form factor, 175 °C maximum junction temperature, cavity-free glass passivation, UL 94 V-0 molding compound, and JESD 22-B106 solderability compliance.
Technical Context
This device implements a single-element Superectifier® structure with cavity-free glass-passivated PN junction, enabling high reliability under thermal cycling and humidity stress. Its low VF (1.1 V) and low IR (5.0 μA) are achieved via optimized silicon doping and metallization, supporting efficient conduction and minimal standby loss.
The GP10-4007HM3/73 operates across -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range and exhibits 55 °C/W typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance with 0.375" lead length on PCB. Reverse recovery time of 3.0 μs (IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A) confirms suitability for moderate-frequency switching applications up to ~100 kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 400 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines safe AC/DC input voltage headroom before breakdown |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A - Continuous DC forward current rating at 0.375" lead length; determines steady-state power handling capability |
| IFSM | 30 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current for 8.3 ms half-sine; supports inrush and fault-current tolerance |
| VF | 1.1 V @ 1.0 A - Forward voltage drop at rated DC current; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design |
| IR | 5.0 μA @ 25 °C - Max reverse leakage at rated VRRM; critical for low-power standby and high-impedance circuits |

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 = 1.3 V @ 1.0 A, trr ≈ 30 μs, TJ max. = 175 °C | Higher voltage rating but slower recovery and higher conduction loss; less suitable for high-frequency or efficiency-critical designs | Select when only high-voltage blocking is required and switching speed is not critical |
| GP10G-E3/73 | Identical electrical specs and package; differs only in packaging suffix (E3/73 denotes RoHS-compliant ammo pack) | No functional difference; same performance, reliability, and footprint | Preferred for RoHS-compliant production; GP10-4007HM3/73 is legacy marking variant of same die and assembly |
Compared with 1N4007G and GP10G-E3/73, the GP10-4007HM3/73 offers superior efficiency (lower VF) and dynamic response (faster trr) than the 1N4007G, while matching GP10G-E3/73 electrically-making it suitable for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained, or moderately switched rectifier roles where legacy marking is accepted.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for GP10-4007HM3/73?
The GP10-4007HM3/73 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, allowing operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed power supplies or near heat-generating components without mandatory derating below 1.0 A IF(AV) until ambient exceeds 75 °C.
Is GP10-4007HM3/73 RoHS-compliant?
Yes, GP10-4007HM3/73 is RoHS-compliant per JEDEC JESD201 Class 1A whisker testing and uses matte tin-plated leads. The "E3" in the part number suffix indicates compliance, and the molding compound meets UL 94 V-0 flammability standards.
What does the "H" in GP10-4007HM3/73 signify?
The "H" in GP10-4007HM3/73 is a manufacturer-specific revision or internal process code denoting the glass-passivated Superectifier® die variant used in this DO-41 assembly; it does not alter electrical specifications versus GP10G-E3/73, which shares identical VRRM, VF, trr, and thermal ratings.
Can GP10-4007HM3/73 replace 1N4007 in existing designs?
GP10-4007HM3/73 can replace 1N4007 in most DO-41 footprint designs, offering lower VF (1.1 V vs. 1.3 V) and faster trr (3.0 μs vs. ~30 μs). However, its 400 V VRRM is lower than 1N4007's 1000 V, so voltage margin must be verified in the target circuit before substitution.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of GP10-4007HM3/73 and how is it measured?
The GP10-4007HM3/73 has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 3.0 μs, measured under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A per JEDEC standards. This value reflects its optimized junction design for reduced minority-carrier storage, enabling better performance in moderate-frequency switching applications than standard 1N400x diodes.
