1N5360AE3/TR13

Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N5360AE3/TR13 is a silicon 5-watt Zener diode in the JEDEC registered 1N5333-5388B series. It provides voltage regulation at a nominal Zener voltage of 25 volts with a ±10% tolerance, indicated by the 'A' suffix. The device features an axial lead T-18 package and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C. Electrical characteristics include a maximum dynamic impedance of 4.0 ohms at a test current of 50 mA, a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.5 µA, and a maximum surge current rating of 190 A.

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 a void-free transfer molded thermosetting epoxy body meeting UL94V-0 standards

Applications

• Voltage regulation circuits requiring 5-watt power dissipation
• Power supply protection against transient overvoltages
• Reference voltage generation in electronic systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the component origin as the datasheet originates from Microsemi Scottsdale Division, which is now part of Microchip Technology. Confirm that the e3 suffix denotes RoHS compliance and the TR suffix indicates tape and reel packaging per EIA-296 standards. Ensure the specific A suffix matches the required ±10% voltage tolerance for your design specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 25-volt regulation point with ±10% tolerance is required. The T-18 axial package allows for through-hole mounting. Consider the thermal resistance of 25°C/W junction-to-lead for heat sinking requirements. Verify that the 5-watt power dissipation rating aligns with the circuit's steady-state and surge current demands.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5333B through 1N5388B series of silicon 5-watt Zener diodes. The series covers a wide voltage selection from 3.3 to 200 volts. The 1N5360 variant specifically targets the 25-volt regulation segment within this extensive lineup, offering standard industrial tolerances and robust mechanical construction for general-purpose applications.
