1N5361AE3/TR13

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N5361AE3/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 27 V with a ±10% tolerance, indicated by the 'A' suffix. The device operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C and features an axial lead T-18 package. Electrical characteristics include a maximum dynamic impedance of 5.0 Ohms and a maximum reverse current of 0.5 µA tested at 19.4 V.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

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

Single Zener Diodes Applications

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

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Microchip distributors or certified suppliers. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the e3 suffix designation and check for specific military screening prefixes if required. Ensure the TR suffix matches tape-and-reel packaging requirements for automated assembly processes.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 27 V Zener reference with ±10% tolerance is needed. The 5-watt power rating supports high-current applications with adequate heat sinking. Consider the T-18 axial package for through-hole mounting and verify thermal resistance requirements against the derating curves provided in the datasheet.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5333B through 1N5388B series of silicon 5-watt Zener diodes manufactured by Microsemi (now Microchip). The series covers a wide voltage range from 3.3 V to 200 V. The 1N5361 variant specifically targets the 27 V regulation point within this extensive lineup of axial-leaded devices.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Surface mount equivalents are available as SMBG5361A or SMBJ5361A. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal performance when transitioning between axial and surface mount packages.
