The 1N5401 has a maximum surge current rating of 200A for a single pulse of 10ms duration.
No, the 1N5401 is a standard recovery diode and not suitable for high-frequency switching applications. It has a relatively slow reverse recovery time (trr) of 3μs.
Yes, the 1N5401 can be used in a bridge rectifier configuration, but it's essential to ensure that the diodes are properly heat-sinked and the maximum current rating is not exceeded.
The thermal resistance (Rth) of the 1N5401 is approximately 10°C/W (junction to ambient) and 5°C/W (junction to case) when mounted on a suitable heat sink.
Yes, the 1N5401 diode made by Diotec Semiconductor AG is RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant, meaning it does not contain hazardous substances like lead, mercury, or cadmium.
