1N5365A/TR8

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N5365A/TR8 is a silicon 5.0-watt Zener diode from the JEDEC registered 1N5333-5388B series, manufactured by the Microsemi Scottsdale Division. It provides voltage regulation at a nominal Zener voltage of 36 V with a ±10% tolerance indicated by the 'A' 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 maximum dynamic impedance of 11 Ohms and a maximum reverse current of 0.5 µA.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation across a broad operating current and temperature range
• Features flexible axial-lead mounting terminals for secure installation
• Withstands high surge stresses without damage
• Non-sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020

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 the datasheet originates from the Microsemi Scottsdale Division. Confirm that the TR suffix indicates tape and reel packaging compliant with EIA-296 standards. Ensure the specific A suffix is selected to match the required ±10% voltage tolerance for your design specifications.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 36 V reference or regulation point is required with a 5 W power dissipation capability. The T-18 through-hole package is suitable for applications requiring robust mechanical mounting. Consider thermal derating curves if ambient temperatures exceed 25°C or if heat sinking is not utilized on FR4 PCBs.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part 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. Different suffix letters identify specific voltage tolerances, with 'A' denoting ±10%. These plastic encapsulated devices are moisture classification Level 1 and do not require dry packing.
