1N5364/TR8

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N5364/TR8 is a silicon 5-watt Zener diode from the JEDEC registered 1N5333-5388B series. It provides voltage regulation at a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V with a ±5% tolerance, indicated by the 'B' suffix. The device operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C and features a T-18 axial lead package. Electrical characteristics include a test current of 40 mA, a maximum dynamic impedance of 10 Ohms, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.5 µA.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation across a broad operating current and temperature range
• Withstands high surge stresses and exhibits minimal voltage change versus current
• Features flexible axial-lead mounting terminals for through-hole integration

Single Zener Diodes Applications

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

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the component origin as this part number originates from the Microsemi Scottsdale Division, which is now part of Microchip Technology. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required tape and reel packaging standard per EIA-296. Ensure the procurement source provides documentation confirming the RoHS compliant e3 status if applicable to your manufacturing requirements.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5-watt power dissipation rating is required for high-current applications. The 33 V nominal voltage and ±5% tolerance make it suitable for general-purpose regulation. Consider the thermal resistance of 25°C/W junction-to-lead when designing heat sinking solutions to maintain operation within the specified temperature limits.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the 1N5333B through 1N5388B series of silicon 5-watt Zener diodes. The series offers a wide selection of voltages from 3.3 V to 200 V. The 'TR' suffix indicates availability in tape and reel packaging, while the 'B' suffix specifies the standard ±5% voltage tolerance. These devices are moisture classification Level 1 and do not require dry packing.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Compatible replacements within the same series include 1N5363B/TR8 (30 V) and 1N5365B/TR8 (36 V). For equivalent performance with different tolerances, consider 1N5364C/TR8 (±2%) or 1N5364A/TR8 (±10%). Surface mount equivalents such as SMBJ5364B or SMBG5364B are also available.
