1N3913

Single Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N3913 is a high-reliability fast recovery rectifier diode qualified per MIL-PRF-19500/308. It features a 50 Amp current rating and supports reverse voltage ratings (VRRM) ranging from 50 to 400 Volts. The device operates with a junction temperature of up to 150°C and utilizes a DO-203AB package.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• Qualified for high reliability applications under MIL-PRF-19500/308 standards
• Fast recovery rectification characteristics suitable for demanding switching environments
• Capable of handling high peak forward currents up to 50 Amps

Single Diodes Applications

• High-reliability power supply circuits
• Military and aerospace electronic systems
• Industrial rectification applications requiring fast recovery

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation (e.g., A, R, AR) against the required VRRM value, as the base part number covers a range from 50 to 400 Volts. Confirm that the procurement specification explicitly requires MIL-PRF-19500/308 qualification. Ensure the package type matches the mechanical constraints of the target assembly.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when military-grade reliability and fast recovery performance are mandatory. The 50 Amp rating suits high-power applications. Verify the exact voltage rating needed within the 50-400 Volt range by checking the specific suffix variant. Ensure the operating environment supports the specified junction temperature limits.

Single Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the 1N39xx series of high-reliability rectifiers manufactured by Microchip Technology. The series includes variants such as 1N3909 through 1N3913, differentiated primarily by their reverse voltage capabilities while maintaining consistent current and recovery specifications.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other parts in the 1N39xx series with matching suffixes for voltage ratings. Cross-reference MIL-PRF-19500/308 equivalents from other manufacturers if available.
