The selection of rectifier diodes mainly depends on the required withstand voltage and current. In addition to the packaging shape, the most important factors are the withstand voltage and current of the rectifier diode.
If it is within 1A, the 1N400X series can be selected, including 1N4000, 1N4001, 1N4002~1N4007 rectifier diodes with withstand voltages of 30V, 50V, 100V, 200V, 400V, 600V, 800V, and 1000V, respectively.
If the current is greater than 1A but not exceeding 3A, the 1N580X series can be selected, including 1N5400, 1N5401, 1N5402~1N5408, with withstand voltages of 50V, 100V, 200V, 300V, 400V, 500V, 600V, 800V, and 1000V respectively.
If the current exceeds 3A, a high current Schottky diode can be selected (with a maximum current exceeding 100A. There are too many specific models of Schottky diodes to list one by one).
