The 1N5554 is a standard recovery rectifier diode from a military-qualified series, housed in a voidless, hermetically sealed glass package. It is characterized by a working peak reverse voltage of 1000 V and a minimum breakdown voltage of 1100 V. The device handles an average rectified forward current of 5 A, with a maximum forward voltage of 1.3 V at a 9 A peak, a maximum reverse current of 1.0 µA, and a reverse recovery time of 2.0 µs. Due to its robust construction and high-reliability qualifications, it is ideal for military systems and general rectifier applications such as bridges, half-bridges, and catch diodes.
