1N5393GP-E3/54

Overview

The Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division 1N5393GP-E3/54 is a glass-passivated junction plastic rectifier diode housed in a DO-15 (DO-204AC) package. It features a Superectifier structure designed for high reliability applications. The device supports a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.5 A and offers a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 200 V. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.4 V at 1.5 A, a typical reverse recovery time of 2.0 µs, and a maximum DC reverse current of 5.0 µA at rated blocking voltage. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -65 to +175 °C.

Feature Summary

• Superectifier structure engineered for high reliability
• Cavity-free glass-passivated junction design
• Low leakage current with typical values below 0.1 µA
• High forward surge capability

Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• Inverter circuits
• Converter systems
• Freewheeling diode applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix /54 corresponds to the required delivery mode, which indicates paper tape and reel packaging. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the E3 designation. Ensure the component meets JESD 201 class 1A whisker test requirements if applicable to your assembly process. Validate that the DO-15 package dimensions align with your PCB footprint specifications before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard recovery rectifier with a 200 V rating is required for through-hole mounting. Consider the 1.5 A current capacity and 175 °C maximum junction temperature for thermal management. Evaluate the 2.0 µs reverse recovery time against circuit switching speeds. Compare the 1.4 V forward voltage drop against efficiency requirements in low-voltage applications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N539xGP series, which encompasses various voltage ratings from 50 V to 1000 V within the same physical package. The Superectifier® technology utilizes a glass-passivated junction to enhance durability. The E3 suffix denotes lead-free construction compliant with RoHS standards. The /54 suffix specifies the bulk reel packaging format for automated assembly.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 1N5393 base number or equivalent 200 V, 1.5 A specifications within the 1N539xGP family. Verify that alternative components support the DO-15 package and meet the same thermal and electrical limits.
