Description:
- The M7 diode, packaged in an SMA/DO-214AC surface-mount package, is a general-purpose rectifier diode. It's designed to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC).
- It is the SMD version of the 1N4007 diode.
- The DO-214AC package is a standardized surface-mount package, making it suitable for automated PCB assembly.
Key Features:
High Voltage Rating:
- Typically, it has a high peak repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM), often up to 1000V.
Current Capability:
- Rated for a specific average rectified forward current (IF(AV)), commonly 1A.
Surface Mount Design :
- Facilitates efficient and compact PCB assembly.
Low Forward Voltage Drop:
- Minimizes power loss during operation.
High Surge Current Capability:
- Can withstand transient high current surges.
Robust Construction:
- Often features plastic passivation for enhanced reliability.
