• Features flexible axial-lead mounting terminals for standard through-hole integration

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring stable regulation
• Power supply protection against transient overvoltages
• General-purpose voltage clamping applications

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TR13' indicates tape and reel packaging per EIA-296 standards. Confirm RoHS compliance via the 'e3' designation. Ensure the component matches the JEDEC registered 1N5345B series specifications before procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring 5W power dissipation at 25°C lead temperature. Consider thermal derating curves when ambient temperatures exceed limits. Verify that the 8.7V breakdown voltage aligns with circuit requirements.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5333B through 1N5388B series of JEDEC registered 5.0-watt Zener diodes. The series offers a wide voltage selection from 3.3V to 200V with various tolerance options identified by suffix letters.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Surface mount equivalents are available as SMBJ5345B or SMBG5345B. Military screening levels can be obtained by adding MQ, MX, or MV prefixes to the base part number.
