1N5362B-AP

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The MCC 1N5362B-AP is a glass-passivated junction silicon Zener diode designed for voltage regulation applications. It operates within the 1N5348B through 1N5388B series, providing a nominal Zener voltage of 28 V with a tolerance of ±5%. The component features a maximum power dissipation of 5 W and is housed in a DO-201AE (DO-15) axial leaded package. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum reverse leakage current of 500 nA, a Zener impedance of 6 Ohms, and a test current of 50 mA. It supports a wide operating temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AP' against official Micro Commercial Components documentation to confirm packaging type and availability status. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to ensure authenticity. Confirm RoHS compliance and REACH SVHC status prior to integration into final assemblies.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5 W axial Zener diode with 28 V regulation is required. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the 6 Ohm dynamic impedance and 500 nA leakage current specifications. Verify that the PCB layout supports the DO-201AE package dimensions and thermal derating requirements above 75 °C ambient temperature.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the 1N5362 series of high-power Zener diodes manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. It shares functional similarities with other industry-standard equivalents but is distinguished by its specific glass-passivation process and axial lead configuration. The product line targets robust industrial and commercial power management applications requiring stable voltage clamping.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the onsemi 1N5362B and PANJIT 1N5362B. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values before substitution.
