1N5372B-TP

Overview

The MCC 1N5372B-TP is a 5-watt Zener diode housed in the DO-15 axial leaded package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 62 V with a ±5% tolerance. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +200°C and features a maximum thermal resistance of 15°C/W from junction to lead. Electrical characteristics include a maximum dynamic impedance of 42 Ohms, a test current of 20 mA, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.5 µA at 47.1 V.

Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation for circuits requiring a 62 V reference point
• Capable of handling high power dissipation up to 5 watts under DC conditions
• Features epoxy molding compound rated UL 94 V-0 for flammability safety

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix matches the required packaging format, as TP indicates standard tape and reel or cut tape options while other suffixes denote bulk or ammo packing. Confirm RoHS compliance status by checking for the specific P suffix designation if halogen-free requirements are not met by the standard version. Ensure the component meets the specified operating temperature limits for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 62 V breakdown voltage is required with a 5 W power rating. Consider the DO-15 package dimensions for through-hole mounting constraints. Evaluate the thermal resistance specifications to ensure adequate heat sinking or airflow is available to maintain junction temperatures below the maximum limit during operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5338B through 1N5388B series manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series covers a wide voltage range from 5.1 V to 200 V, all sharing the same 5 W power dissipation capability and DO-15 package style. The 1N5372B-TP specifically targets applications needing precise 62 V regulation within this standardized product line.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 1N5372B equivalents ensuring identical 62 V Zener voltage, 5 W power rating, and DO-15 package compatibility. Verify that dynamic impedance and leakage current specifications meet or exceed the original MCC datasheet values.
