1N3064TR

Single Diodes Overview

The 1N3064TR is a small signal rectifier diode manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor, now part of onsemi. It features a single silicon element in a DO-35 axial leaded package. Key electrical specifications include a maximum repetitive reverse voltage (VRRM) of 75 V and an average rectified forward current (IF(AV)) of 300 mA. The device supports a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of up to 4 A for microsecond pulses. Electrical characteristics specify a maximum forward voltage of 1.0 V at 10 mA forward current and a maximum reverse leakage current of 100 µA at 150°C. Thermal ratings indicate a power dissipation of 500 mW and a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 300 °C/W.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High temperature operation capability with a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C and storage range extending to +200 °C
• Low capacitance design suitable for high-frequency applications with total capacitance of 2 pF
• Fast switching performance characterized by a reverse recovery time of 4 ns

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in low-power circuits
• Signal processing and clamping applications requiring fast recovery
• Protection circuits utilizing the diode's surge current handling capabilities

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer lineage as Fairchild Semiconductor products are integrated into onsemi. Confirm that the TR suffix denotes tape and reel packaging if required for automated assembly. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives as indicated by the e3 JESD-609 code found in distributor databases. Check for any specific handling instructions regarding the glass encapsulation and axial leads during soldering processes.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust small-signal diode with high thermal stability is required. The DO-35 package provides reliable through-hole mounting for standard PCB layouts. Consider the 75 V reverse voltage rating to ensure adequate margin against transient spikes in the target circuit. The low reverse leakage current makes it suitable for precision analog applications where minimal current loss is critical.

Single Diodes Part Context

The 1N3064 is a legacy small signal diode originally specified by Fairchild Semiconductor. It belongs to the standard 1N series of rectifiers, widely used in general electronics. The TR variant specifically indicates bulk or tape-and-reel distribution, differing from loose-pack versions. This component serves as a fundamental building block in discrete semiconductor designs for voltage conversion and signal direction control.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 1N3064 variants from different manufacturers such as Central Semiconductor or ROHM, provided they meet the same DO-35 package and 75 V/300 mA electrical ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values before substitution.
