What is a diode? A diode is a semiconductor device that essentially acts as a one-way switch for current. An ideal diode will have zero resistance in one direction, and infinite resistance in the reverse direction. They are also known as rectifiers because they change alternating current (AC) into pulsating direct current (DC).

Common package diodes in daily life, such as SOD123, SOD323, SOD523, SOT23, ZMM series LL34 package, ZM47**A series LL41 package, BZX55C series DO35 package and so on.

We will offer you a nice price whether it is a plastic package diode or a glass packaged diode. Let us know by info@kingtronics.com, if you are interested.

Do you know what’s the difference between Melf and SMA Package? Let us take a comparison, you can easy to get features of them. Please refer to the below table.

Comparison between Melf and SMA package
Build in massive copper plugs	Build in copper leadframe technology
Superior thermal resistance due to massive plugs removing heat easily	Leadframe technology possess higher thermal resistance
Superior surge current rating due to high heated capacity of plugs, absorbing easily short lasting high energy surges	Leadframe technology has got less heat capacity
Tends to “roll away” during assembly, therefore better fitted for wave soldering (where devices are glued to the PCB)	Applicable to all kinds of welding such as reflow or wave soldering
More sensitive against mechanical forces applied to the plugs	Leadframe technology provides better stress relief, therefore less sensitivity against mechanical stress to the leads
Parameters of a 1A/1000V  Standard Rectifier–SM4007	Parameters of 1A/1000V            Standard Rectifier–S1M

Dear Friends,

Kingtronics team wish you a wonderful August first!

Though Kingtronics can always offer your very competitive price. We still keep making effort to give you more choices and better price.

We can offer some diodes in SMA-J package which can help you cost down and win a better lead time. Frankly speaking, SMA-J is similar to SMA. I strongly believe that SMA-J would be also workable for you.

Welcome to send us inquiry and know more about our diodes!

best regards,
Kingtronics Sales Team
