1N5341C/TR8

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N5341C/TR8 is a silicon Zener diode with a nominal voltage of 6.2V and a tolerance of ±2%. It features a maximum power dissipation of 5W at 25°C, operating temperatures from -65°C to +150°C, and a maximum reverse current of 10µA tested at 3.0V. The device utilizes a T-18 axial lead package and includes a TR suffix for tape and reel packaging.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides tight voltage regulation within a broad operating current and temperature range
• Withstands high surge stresses and exhibits minimal changes in voltage versus current
• Features flexible axial-lead mounting terminals suitable for through-hole applications

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage regulation circuits requiring precise tolerance
• Power supply protection against high surge stresses
• Electronic systems operating across wide temperature ranges

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific C suffix indicates ±2% tolerance during procurement. Confirm the TR suffix denotes tape and reel packaging format. Ensure compatibility with existing thermal management designs due to the 5W power rating. Check RoHS compliance status as standard versions may not be compliant.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6.2V reference requires tighter than standard tolerances. Consider the T-18 package size for available board space. Evaluate thermal derating requirements if ambient temperatures exceed 25°C. Compare dynamic impedance specifications against circuit sensitivity needs.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the JEDEC registered 1N5333B through 1N5388B series of 5-watt Zener diodes. The series offers voltages from 3.3V to 200V with various tolerance options identified by suffix letters. The C suffix specifically designates a ±2% tolerance level.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include 1N5341B for ±5% tolerance or 1N5341D for ±1% tolerance within the same series. Verify that replacement devices match the T-18 package dimensions and electrical characteristics.
