1N58xx Schottky diodes

The 1N58xx is a series of medium power, fast, low voltage Schottky diodes, which consists of part number numbers 1N5817 through 1N5825.[2][3][4]

Overview

The 1N581x are typically packaged in the DO-41 axial through-hole case, and in many cases are interchangeable with the 1N4001 series. The 1N582x are typically packaged in the DO-201AD through-hole case, and in many cases are interchangeable with the 1N54xx series.

Being Schottky diodes, the 1N58xx parts have roughly half the forward voltage drop of the 1N400x/1N540x series diodes, which improves efficiency in applications where they are usually forward-biased, such as power converters. The cost is a lower voltage rating and higher reverse leakage (approximately 1 mA at room temperature and increasing with temperature).

Common surface-mount relatives of the 1N58xx series are the SS1x and SS3x series, such the SS14 (1 ampere) and SS34 (3 ampere) surface-mount parts.[5][6]

gollark: Never mind the certainly huge amount of bugs which could emerge from some hours running twice, or not at all, and the extreme hassle of dealing with also having to translate pre-DST-implementation and post-DST-implementation dates!
gollark: Why not just MEDDLE WITH THE VERY FABRIC OF TIME ITSELF instead of changing working hours?
gollark: Tired of getting up at times which don't... align with the sun, or something?
gollark: It's a bad solution to a problem which I don't think even exists, which creates nightmares for programmers everywhere.
gollark: Daylight saving time is just so terrible.
