A diode is a device that allows current flow through only one direction. That is the current should always flow from the anode to the cathode. The cathode terminal can be identified by using a grey bar as shown in the picture above.
For 1N5399 Diode, the maximum current carrying capacity is 1.5A it withstands peaks up to 50A. Hence we can use this in circuits that are designed for less than 1.5A. The reverse current is 5uA which is negligible.
