1N5363E3/TR13

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microsemi Corporation 1N5363E3/TR13 is a silicon 5.0-watt Zener diode from the JEDEC registered 1N5333B through 1N5388B series. It provides voltage regulation at a nominal Zener voltage of 30V with a ±5% tolerance, indicated by the 'B' suffix. The device operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C and features an isolated cathode marked by a band. Packaged in a T-18 axial lead format, it offers high surge current capability and minimal voltage change versus current.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation across a broad operating current and temperature range
• Withstands high surge stresses while maintaining minimal changes in voltage relative to current
• Features flexible axial-lead mounting terminals for versatile integration
• Moisture classification is Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, requiring no dry pack

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage regulation in power supply circuits
• Protection against transient overvoltage events
• Reference voltage generation in electronic systems

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the part number includes the e3 suffix to confirm RoHS compliance and matte-tin plating. Ensure the TR13 designation matches the required tape and reel packaging standard. Confirm the B suffix corresponds to the necessary ±5% voltage tolerance for your specific circuit requirements before finalizing procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5-watt power rating and a 30V Zener voltage are required. The T-18 package supports high maximum DC currents provided adequate heat sinking is utilized. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics and derating curves if operating near maximum limits or in confined spaces.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the 1N5333B through 1N5388B series of silicon 5-watt Zener diodes manufactured by Microsemi's Scottsdale Division. The series covers a wide voltage selection from 3.3V to 200V. Surface mount equivalents are available in SMBJ and SMBG packages for applications requiring different form factors.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Surface mount equivalents such as SMBJ5363B or SMBG5363B offer similar electrical characteristics in compact packages. For military specifications, screened versions like MQ1N5363ATR provide JAN, JANTX, or JANTXV reliability levels.
