Rectifier Diode · 1000V Reverse Voltage Axial DO-41 General Purpose · Vishay 1N4007
General purpose silicon rectifier diode rated 1 A average forward current and 1000 V repetitive peak reverse voltage in an axial DO-41 package. Commonly used in power supplies, converters, inverters, and freewheeling diode applications for through-hole board assembly.
What this product is for
The 1N4007 is a general purpose through-hole silicon rectifier diode used for AC to DC rectification, reverse polarity protection, and flyback or freewheeling duty in low-frequency power circuits. It is typically selected where a standard recovery axial diode is needed with a 1 A average forward current rating and up to 1000 V repetitive peak reverse voltage.
Use for
Use for power supplies, battery chargers, control boards, relay and solenoid suppression, converters, and inverter support circuits where a standard recovery rectifier is suitable. The axial DO-41 body is commonly used for through-hole repair work, prototyping, and legacy board replacement.
Avoid for
Avoid for high-speed switching circuits, high-frequency SMPS rectification, or applications that require fast or ultrafast recovery diodes. Also avoid using it as a substitute for a TVS diode or surge protection device.
Best for
Best for general rectification and protection duties where cost, availability, and simple through-hole installation matter more than fast switching speed. A common buying check is matching the reverse voltage rating, current rating, and package style to the existing design.
Installed in
Installed in control panels, appliance boards, low-power power supplies, hobby and repair assemblies, and industrial electronics that still use axial leaded semiconductors. Body size is approximately DO-41, commonly around 0.205 in to 0.107 in diameter and about 0.3 in (about 7.6 mm) long, depending on manufacturer variant.
Why this product exists
This diode provides a simple, widely recognized rectifier option for blocking reverse current and converting AC to DC in general electronic circuits. It remains a standard replacement part because the 1N4007 designation is widely specified across OEM, maintenance, and bench repair work.
Compared with similar products
Compared with lower-voltage 1N4001 to 1N4006 versions, the 1N4007 offers the highest reverse voltage rating in the same family at 1000 V. Compared with fast recovery diodes, it is better suited to standard low-frequency rectification rather than high-speed switching. As a rule of thumb, choose a fast or ultrafast diode when switching speed is a design requirement. Actual circuit performance depends on frequency, current, temperature, and board layout.
