1N4002 Diode

A diode is a device which allows current flow through only one direction. . The cathode terminal can be identified by using a grey bar as shown in the picture above.For 1N4002 Diode, the maximum current carrying capacity is 1A it withstand peaks up to 30A. Hence we can use this in circuits that are designed for less than 1A. The reverse current is 5uA which is negligible. It can withstand reverse voltage peak up to 100V.

 Features
