Working principle

1N4002GP-M3/54 is a rectifier diode, meaning it only allows current to flow in one direction. It consists of a semiconductor material with a very thin layer of P-type material sandwiched between two layers of N-type material. The semiconductor material is a strong electrical insulator, which prevents current from flowing in the reverse direction. When a voltage is applied to the diode, the electrical field reorients the atoms in the semiconductor material, creating a channel that allows current to flow in only one direction.To summarise, 1N4002GP-M3/54 is a versatile component primarily used as a rectifier diode in a variety of applications. It is a single, quick recovery rectifier with a glass passivated junction chip and is widely used in the electronics industry.
