1N5360CE3/TR13

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N5360CE3/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 27V with a ±5% tolerance, indicated by the 'B' suffix. The device operates in an axial DO-41 package and features a maximum dynamic impedance of 5.0 ohms at a test current of 50 mA. It withstands a maximum surge current of 176 A and dissipates up to 5 watts at lead temperatures below 25°C.

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 parameters

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage regulation in power supply circuits
• Overvoltage protection for sensitive electronic components
• Reference voltage generation in measurement equipment

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the component origin carefully, as the datasheet identifies Microsemi as the manufacturer while the model number suggests Microchip Technology. Confirm that the specific ordering suffixes correspond to the RoHS compliant (e3) and tape and reel (TR) packaging options documented in the official specifications before finalizing procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5-watt power dissipation rating and a 27V regulated output are required. Ensure the application can accommodate the specified thermal resistance and heat sinking requirements to maintain operation within the -65°C to +150°C temperature range without exceeding the maximum steady-state power limits.

Single Zener Diodes 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 3.3V to 200V, utilizing different tolerance suffixes such as B for ±5%. These devices are designed for applications requiring robust performance under high surge stresses and offer moisture classification Level 1.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include other 5-watt Zener diodes with a 27V nominal voltage and ±5% tolerance. Verify that any substitute matches the axial DO-41 package dimensions and meets the same thermal and electrical ratings.
