1N4001 Diode - 10 pack

A 10-pack of 1N4001 general-purpose rectifier diodes — one of the most widely used power diodes in electronics. Rated for 1 A continuous forward current and 50 V peak reverse voltage with a typical forward voltage drop of 0.7 V.

Key Features

• 1 A Forward Current – Suitable for most low-power rectification and protection circuits
• 50 V Peak Reverse Voltage – Blocks reverse voltage up to 50 V
• ~0.7 V Forward Drop – Standard silicon diode characteristics
• Through-Hole Package – Easy to use on breadboards and PCBs

Common Applications

• Reverse Polarity Protection – Place between DC power input and circuitry to prevent damage from reversed connections
• Flyback/Kickback Protection – Connect across relay coils, solenoids, or DC motors to safely discharge inductive voltage spikes
• General Rectification – AC-to-DC conversion in power supply circuits
