Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the component origin as the datasheet originates from Microsemi Scottsdale Division, now part of Microchip Technology. Confirm that the e3 suffix indicates RoHS compliance and the TR13 suffix denotes tape and reel packaging per EIA-296 standards. Ensure the specific B suffix tolerance matches design requirements before procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring 5-watt power dissipation and a 27V reference point. Consider the thermal resistance of 25°C/W junction-to-lead when designing heat sinking solutions. Verify that the axial lead configuration fits the target PCB layout constraints compared to surface mount alternatives.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the JEDEC registered 1N5333B through 1N5388B series of silicon Zener diodes. The series covers a voltage range from 3.3V to 200V. The 1N5361 variant specifically addresses the 27V segment of this lineup, offering robust performance for general-purpose regulation tasks.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Surface mount equivalents are available in the SMBJ5361 or SMBG5361 series. Direct pin-compatible replacements may require verification of thermal and electrical parameters against the original design specifications.
