Additional Details:
The 1N4004W has a repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400V and a maximum forward current of 1A. The forward voltage drop is typically 1.1V at 1A. It is packaged in a surface-mount SMA package. The operating temperature range is -65°C to +150°C. The 'W' suffix typically indicates the SMA package type, designed for automated assembly and high-density circuit boards. It's designed to withstand a surge current of up to 30A. Because it is a surface mount device, care must be taken during soldering. Recommended soldering profiles should be consulted to ensure proper connection and avoid thermal damage. It is commonly used in low to medium power applications.
