1N5364B-AP

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The MCC 1N5364B-AP is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for voltage regulation applications. It operates within the 1N53xx series, featuring a 5-watt power dissipation rating at 75°C ambient temperature. The device utilizes a DO-15 axial leaded package with molded plastic construction. Key electrical characteristics include a nominal Zener voltage of 20V with a 5% tolerance and a maximum reverse leakage current of 500nA. It supports a test current of 125mA and maintains an operating junction temperature range from -55°C to +150°C.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation against official Micro Commercial Components documentation to confirm exact mechanical and electrical tolerances. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid manufacturer traceability. Confirm compliance with RoHS and REACH standards as specified in the latest product change notifications. Cross-reference the Mouser part number 833-1N5364B-AP for accurate catalog identification during sourcing.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 20V Zener voltage with 5% precision is required in a through-hole configuration. The 5W power rating allows for effective heat dissipation in high-current scenarios without external heatsinks under standard conditions. Compare the 125mA test current against circuit load requirements to ensure proper regulation performance. Verify that the DO-15 package dimensions fit the target PCB layout constraints.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the 1N53xx series of 5-watt Zener diodes manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series offers a wide range of voltage options from approximately 3.3V to 200V. The 1N5364B-AP specifically addresses the 20V segment, providing a standardized solution for industrial and commercial electronics requiring reliable voltage clamping in axial packages.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the 1N5364B-TP variant from the same manufacturer, which shares identical electrical specifications but may differ in packaging format. Other manufacturers producing JEDEC-standard 1N5364 devices are functionally interchangeable provided the DO-15 footprint and 5W thermal ratings are supported.
