The 1N581''x'' are typically packaged in the

DO-41 DO-204 is a family of diode semiconductor packages defined by JEDEC. This family comprises lead-mounted axial devices with round leads. Generally a diode will have a line painted near the cathode end. Dimensions Common variants Several ...

1N4001 The 1N400x (or 1N4001 or 1N4000) series is a family of popular one-ampere general-purpose silicon rectifier diodes commonly used in AC adapters for common household appliances. Its blocking voltage varies from 50 volts (1N4001) to 1000 volts ...

series. The 1N582''x'' are typically packaged in the DO-201AD through-hole case, and in many cases are interchangeable with the 1N54''xx'' series. Being Schottky diodes, the 1N58''xx'' parts have roughly half the forward voltage drop of the 1N400''x''/1N540''x'' series diodes, which improves efficiency in applications where they are usually forward-biased, such as power converters. The cost is a lower voltage rating and higher reverse leakage current (approximately 1 mA at room temperature and increasing with temperature). Common

surface-mount Surface-mount technology (SMT), originally called planar mounting, is a method in which the electrical components are mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). An electrical component mounted in this manner is referred ...

relatives of the 1N58xx series are the SS1x and SS3x series, such as the SS14 (1 ampere) and SS34 (3 ampere) surface-mount parts.
