  • IN5408 is a power diode that allows current to flow in one direction only (from the anode terminal to the cathode terminal).
  • It carries low resistance in one direction and very high resistance in another direction.

  • There are two terminals anode and cathode that are attached to the p-n junction.

characteristics

  • Small size and high current
  • High surge current capability
  • Low forward pressure drop
  • Plastic meets UL 94V-0 flammability

It is an ideal diode if you are looking for a little bit more ampere handling capabilities.
Pins

  • There are 2 pins
Diode

    1. Anode
    2. Cathode

Applications of 1N5408 Power Diode

  • Half Wave and Full Wave rectifiers
  • Protection device
  • Current flow regulators
  • Used in HV supplies
