The 1N4007 General Purpose Rectifier Diode is a widely used silicon diode designed for efficient rectification in a broad range of electronic applications. With a maximum repetitive reverse voltage (Vrrm) of 1000V and a forward current (If) rating of 1A (with a surge capability of up to 30A for 8.3ms), it’s perfect for converting AC to DC in power supplies, adapters, and battery chargers. Encased in a DO-41 (DO-204AL) axial package, the 1N4007 features a low forward voltage drop of approximately 1.1V at 1A and is optimized for general-purpose use with a standard recovery time. It has a power dissipation of 3W and operates reliably within a temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. This RoHS-compliant diode is a go-to component for DIY electronics, appliance repairs, and educational projects, offering dependable performance in low-to-moderate current circuits. Its axial leads are solderable per MIL-STD-202 standards, and the cathode is marked with a band for easy polarity identification.
