1N5340E3/TR13

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N5340E3/TR13 is a silicon 5-watt Zener diode from the JEDEC registered 1N5333-5388B series. It provides voltage regulation at a nominal Zener voltage of 6.0 V with a ±5% tolerance. The device operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C and features a maximum dynamic impedance of 1.0 Ω at a test current of 200 mA. Packaged in an axial T-18 case, it supports tape and reel mounting.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation across a broad operating current and temperature range
• Withstands high surge stresses and offers flexible axial-lead mounting terminals
• Features minimal changes in voltage versus current as specified by voltage regulation

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage regulation in power supply circuits
• Reference voltage generation for electronic systems
• Overvoltage protection applications

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the component matches the specific 6.0 V Zener voltage requirement and the T-18 axial lead package configuration. Confirm the presence of the e3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and the TR suffix confirms tape and reel packaging. Ensure the supplier documentation references the correct Microsemi/Microchip datasheet for the 1N5333-5388B series to validate electrical characteristics.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5-watt power dissipation rating is required for robust voltage regulation. The 6.0 V output is suitable for mid-range reference applications. Consider the wide operating temperature range and low thermal resistance design if heat sinking or high ambient temperatures are present in the application environment.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5333B through 1N5388B series of silicon 5-watt Zener diodes manufactured by Microchip Technology (formerly Microsemi). The series covers a voltage selection from 3.3 V to 200 V. The 1N5340 variant specifically targets the 6.0 V regulation point within this extensive lineup of plastic encapsulated, axial-leaded devices.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Surface mount equivalents such as SMBJ5340B or SMBG5340B are available from the same manufacturer. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal management requirements when transitioning between axial leads and surface mount packages.
