GPP20M datasheet

Description

GPP20M is a general-purpose glass-passivated junction rectifier diode rated for 1000V reverse voltage and 2A average forward current. It is packaged in a DO-15 (DO-204AC) through-hole package and is designed for reliable rectification in power supplies and general electronic circuits, offering low leakage, good surge capability, and stable high-voltage performance.

Features

  • Glass passivated junction for enhanced reliability
  • Low forward voltage drop
  • Low leakage current (typically < 0.1 µA)
  • High surge current capability
  • DO-15 (DO-204AC) axial package
  • Complies with MIL-S-19500 environmental standards
  • High-temperature soldering capability (275°C, 10s)

Functional Description

  • Standard PN junction rectifier diode for converting AC to DC
  • Conducts current in forward direction and blocks in reverse direction
  • Glass passivation improves junction stability and reduces leakage

Design Notes

  • Ensure adequate thermal dissipation for continuous 2A operation
  • Use proper PCB spacing for high-voltage (1000V) applications
  • Consider reverse recovery characteristics if used in high-frequency circuits
  • Add snubber or RC damping in inductive load applications to reduce stress
  • Check surge current rating for inrush-heavy applications (e.g., capacitive loads)

How to Choose This Part

  • Select based on reverse voltage margin (≥1.5× system voltage recommended)
  • Ensure forward current rating meets load requirements
  • Consider switching speed for high-frequency applications (may require fast diode)
  • Choose package based on thermal and mechanical constraints

Typical Applications

  • AC to DC rectification (power supplies)
  • Freewheeling diode in inductive circuits
  • General-purpose rectifier in consumer and industrial electronics
  • Bridge rectifier configurations

Alternative / Equivalent Products

  • 1N5408 (3A, 1000V rectifier)
  • FR207 (fast recovery alternative)
  • UF4007 (ultrafast switching, lower current)
  • HER208 (high-efficiency rectifier)
