Description

The 1N34 is a small-signal germanium diode that features a low forward voltage drop, making it ideal for use in low-power, high-frequency applications. Unlike silicon diodes, which typically have a forward voltage drop of around 0.7V, the germanium 1N34 diode has a forward voltage drop as low as 0.2V to 0.3V, which enables better performance in RF detection and signal rectification.

Features

  • Low Forward Voltage Drop: Typically around 0.2V to 0.3V, ideal for low-voltage signal detection.
  • High Sensitivity: Suitable for detecting weak signals, commonly used in crystal radios.
  • Fast Switching: Works well in RF applications due to its quick response time.
  • Low Capacitance: Ensures efficient performance in high-frequency circuits.
  • Small Signal Use: Designed for small current rectification and signal processing.
  • Germanium Construction: Provides excellent performance in applications requiring low forward voltage drop and fast switching.

Specifications

  • Forward Voltage (V_F): Typically 0.2V – 0.3V at low current (up to 5mA)
  • Maximum Reverse Voltage (V_R): 60V
  • Maximum Forward Current (I_F): 50mA
  • Reverse Current (I_R): Less than 1µA at 10V
  • Capacitance: 1-2 pF (at 0V)
  • Reverse Recovery Time (t_rr): Fast switching for RF applications
  • Package Type: Often comes in a DO-7 glass package.
