1N5393S-T

Overview

The Diodes Incorporated 1N5393S-T is a discontinued silicon rectifier diode designed for general-purpose applications. It features a DO-41 axial package and supports an average forward rectified current of 1.5 A at 70°C ambient temperature. The device provides a peak repetitive reverse voltage of 200 V with a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.1 V at rated current. It withstands non-repetitive peak forward surge currents up to 50 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Fast switching capability optimized for high efficiency
• High current handling with low forward voltage drop
• Low reverse leakage current characteristics
• Surge overload rating supporting 50A peak current

Applications

• General purpose rectification circuits
• Power supply input stages
• DC output rectification

Procurement Notes

This component has been officially discontinued by the manufacturer as of August 6, 2009. Verify availability through authorized distributors or secondary markets only. Confirm that replacement components meet identical electrical specifications and mechanical footprint requirements before integration into new designs.

Selection Notes

Select this part for standard rectification tasks requiring 200V blocking voltage and 1.5A continuous current. Ensure thermal management accommodates the specified operating temperature range. Note that the 'S' suffix indicates the DO-41 package variant, distinct from the DO-15 version.

Part Context

The 1N5393S-T belongs to the 1N5391/S through 1N5399/S series of 1.5A rectifiers manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. This family offers varying reverse voltage ratings from 50V to 1000V while maintaining consistent current capabilities and package styles for standardized design implementation.

Replacement Considerations

Verify equivalent parts such as 1N5393GP/56-E3 or generic 1N5393 variants. Ensure replacements match the DO-41 package dimensions and maintain identical 200V reverse voltage and 1.5A current ratings.

FAQ
