Product details
Overview
GP10B-M3/54 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated junction plastic rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 100 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0 A average forward current (IF(AV)), and 25 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM). It delivers low forward voltage drop (1.2 V at 1.0 A), low leakage (5.0 μA at 25 °C), and fast reverse recovery (3.0 μs), making it suitable for AC/DC power supply rectification in consumer-grade inverters and converters.
For engineers reviewing the GP10B-M3/54 datasheet, GP10B-M3/54 pinout, GP10B-M3/54 application, or GP10B-M3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100 V blocking rating, DO-41 through-hole package compatibility, 175 °C max junction temperature, and Superectifier® structure for high reliability in cost-sensitive, general-purpose rectification circuits.
Technical Context
The GP10B-M3/54 implements a single silicon PN junction with cavity-free glass passivation, enabling stable operation up to 175 °C junction temperature and robust resistance to moisture and thermal stress. Its Superectifier® architecture minimizes reverse recovery charge and enhances surge survivability under transient overloads.
Designed for line-frequency (60 Hz) rectification in resistive or inductive loads, it exhibits 55 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance with 0.375" (9.5 mm) lead length on PCB, and maintains 5.0 μA max reverse leakage at 25 °C - critical for low-power standby efficiency in consumer adapters and auxiliary supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 100 V - supports full-wave rectification of 70 V RMS AC inputs with safety margin |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A - continuous DC output capability with standard 0.375" lead mounting |
| IFSM | 25 A - withstands 8.3 ms half-sine surge, sufficient for capacitor-input filter inrush |
| VF @ 1.0 A | 1.2 V - reduces conduction loss and heatsink requirements in 5–12 V output supplies |
| IR @ 25 °C | 5.0 μA - ensures minimal standby power loss in always-on auxiliary rails |
| trr | 3.0 μs - limits switching loss and EMI in 50/60 Hz applications; not intended for high-frequency SMPS |
| TJ max. | 175 °C - enables operation in enclosed consumer enclosures without forced airflow |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-41 (DO-204AL), axial-leaded, epoxy-molded with glass body; matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002; cathode indicated by color band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC input or transformer secondary side; must handle 25 A surge without bond wire failure |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse-blocking terminal | Marked with color band; ties to positive rail; reverse leakage < 5 μA ensures low quiescent drain |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Superectifier® structure | Enhanced junction ruggedness and reduced reverse recovery charge versus standard rectifiers |
| Cavity-free glass passivation | Eliminates delamination risk under thermal cycling; improves long-term reliability in humid environments |
| Low VF (1.2 V @ 1 A) | Reduces power dissipation to ~1.2 W at full load, easing thermal design in compact adapters |
| Solder dip rated 275 °C / 10 s | Compatible with standard wave soldering processes without parametric shift or package cracking |
| UL 94 V-0 molding compound | Meets flammability requirements for end-product safety certifications (e.g., UL 62368-1) |
Applications
| AC/DC Wall Adapters | LED Driver Input Rectification |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Converting 120 V AC mains to low-voltage DC for USB-powered devices in compact, thermally constrained enclosures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary bridge or half-wave rectifier delivering 1.0 A average DC output before bulk capacitance.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4001GP-E3/54 | Same DO-41 package, but lower 50 V VRRM and higher 1.1 V VF; no Superectifier® structure | Restricted to ≤35 V AC inputs; less surge robustness (30 A vs. 25 A) | Select only when 50 V rating suffices and cost is primary constraint |
| GP10D-M3/54 | Identical construction and package, but 200 V VRRM and 1.3 V VF | Supports higher AC input voltages (e.g., 120 V nominal with 20% tolerance); slightly higher conduction loss | Choose when system requires ≥140 V peak reverse margin or operates globally on 230 V mains |
Compared with 1N4001GP-E3/54, GP10B-M3/54 offers higher blocking voltage and improved surge resilience; compared with GP10D-M3/54, it trades 100 V capability for lower forward loss - optimal for 120 V AC applications where thermal headroom is limited.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for GP10B-M3/54?
The GP10B-M3/54 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, verified per Vishay's datasheet revision 26-Jan-2022. This rating allows sustained operation in thermally demanding environments such as enclosed consumer power supplies or industrial control housings without active cooling. The GP10B-M3/54 achieves this via cavity-free glass passivation and optimized thermal resistance (55 °C/W) under standard mounting conditions.
Is GP10B-M3/54 suitable for use in switch-mode power supplies (SMPS)?
The GP10B-M3/54 is not recommended for high-frequency SMPS operation due to its 3.0 μs reverse recovery time (trr), which is optimized for 50/60 Hz line-frequency rectification. While it can function in low-frequency flyback or forward converters, its trr and junction capacitance (7.0 pF) may cause excessive switching loss and EMI above 20 kHz. For SMPS, consider ultrafast or Schottky alternatives. The GP10B-M3/54 remains ideal for traditional linear and capacitor-input supplies.
What does the "M3/54" suffix indicate in GP10B-M3/54?
The "M3" denotes Vishay's tape-and-reel packaging specification compliant with EIA-481-D standards, while "/54" specifies the preferred package code for 13-inch diameter paper tape and reel containing 5500 units. This format ensures automated pick-and-place compatibility and traceable lot control. The GP10B-M3/54 uses matte tin-plated leads meeting J-STD-002 solderability requirements, and its DO-41 body conforms to JEDEC DO-204AL outlines.
How does GP10B-M3/54 differ from the GP10B-E3/54 variant?
The GP10B-M3/54 and GP10B-E3/54 share identical electrical specifications and DO-41 package, but differ in lead finish and qualification: "M3" indicates a matte tin finish qualified to JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing, while "E3" denotes a standard matte tin finish compliant with RoHS but without explicit whisker test documentation. Both meet J-STD-002 solderability, but GP10B-M3/54 is preferred for long-life, high-reliability applications where tin whisker mitigation is mandated.
Why is GP10B-M3/54 marked "Not for New Designs"?
Vishay designates GP10B-M3/54 as "Not for New Designs" (per datasheet revision 26-Jan-2022) to signal strategic phase-out in favor of newer platforms like the VS-GBPC series or automotive-qualified rectifiers. However, the GP10B-M3/54 remains fully manufactured and supported for existing designs, with guaranteed supply continuity through Aetrix Electronics' lifecycle management program. No performance or reliability degradation is associated with this status.
