1N5393G-T

Overview

The 1N5393G-T is a glass passivated silicon rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, designed for general-purpose applications. It features a DO-15 axial package with a maximum average rectified output current of 1.5 A at an ambient temperature of 55°C. The device supports a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 200 V and a DC blocking voltage of 200 V. It exhibits a forward voltage of 1.1 V at the rated current and a peak reverse current of 5.0 µA at 25°C. The component withstands a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 50 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +175°C.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated die construction ensures high reliability and stability under varying thermal conditions.
• High current capability combined with low forward voltage drop improves overall circuit efficiency.
• Robust surge overload rating allows the device to handle transient peak currents up to 50 A.

Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supply circuits
• Freewheeling diode applications in inductive loads
• DC blocking functions in electronic systems

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required tape and reel packaging configuration. Confirm compliance with RoHS directives and check for any applicable exemptions regarding glass or high-temperature solder materials. Ensure the component status aligns with design requirements, as this series may be marked as not recommended for new designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard recovery rectifier with a 200 V reverse voltage rating is required. Consider the 1.5 A continuous current capacity and the DO-15 package dimensions for board layout constraints. Evaluate the thermal resistance and derating curves if operation exceeds standard ambient temperatures.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5391G through 1N5399G family of 1.5 A glass passivated rectifiers. The family shares identical mechanical data and electrical characteristics except for the specific reverse voltage ratings, which range from 50 V to 1000 V across the series variants.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering DO-15 packaged 1.5 A rectifiers with a 200 V rating. Verify pinout compatibility and ensure equivalent thermal and electrical performance metrics are met before substitution.
