The 1N4001 Rectifier Diode (50V 1A) is a widely used general-purpose silicon rectifier diode designed for low-frequency rectification applications. With its ability to handle up to 50V reverse voltage and a continuous forward current of 1A, this diode is ideal for converting AC to DC in power supplies, adapters, chargers, and other electronic circuits.
Its low forward voltage drop (~1.1V max) ensures efficient current flow, while its high surge current capability (30A peak) makes it reliable for handling sudden load variations. The 1N4001 features fast recovery characteristics for its class and provides stable operation in rectifier and protection applications.
This diode is commonly used in power adapters, DC power supply units, reverse polarity protection, battery charging circuits, and hobby electronics projects. Its compact DO-41 package makes it easy to integrate into both professional and DIY circuit designs.
