1N5400 Overview

A reverse voltage of 50V is reasonable.Devices with this rating have an average rectified current of 3A volts.An unwanted consequence of the primary action of this electronic or electrical device is the production of 6.25W heat.Phase diode rectifier is permissible for forward current to reach 3A.Having a current rating of 3A, it can carry an indefinite amount of current without deterioration.Surge currents are limited to 200A.Depending on the capacitance, the device can deliver a value of 30pF.As the data chart indicates, the peak reverse is 10μA.Defining the breakdown voltage of a diode is to determine the highest reverse voltage that can be applied without causing an exponential rise in the leakage current, and its voltage is 50V.
