Detailed Pin Configuration

The JAN1N4988US is a two-terminal device with an anode and a cathode. It is housed in a DO-41 package, with the anode connected to the positive terminal and the cathode to the negative terminal.

Functional Features

• High current capability
• Fast reverse recovery time
• Low forward voltage drop

Advantages

• Suitable for high-frequency applications
• Low power loss
• Compact size

Disadvantages

• Limited reverse voltage rating
• Sensitive to temperature variations

Working Principles

The JAN1N4988US operates on the principle of rectification, allowing current to flow in only one direction. When a positive voltage is applied to the anode with respect to the cathode, the diode conducts, allowing current to flow. In the reverse bias condition, the diode blocks the current flow.

Detailed Application Field Plans

The JAN1N4988US is commonly used in power supplies, voltage regulators, and rectifier circuits. Its fast recovery time makes it suitable for high-frequency applications where rapid switching is required. Additionally, it finds use in automotive electronics, battery chargers, and LED lighting systems.
