1N5395-BP

Overview

The MCC 1N5395-BP is a standard recovery rectifier diode from the 1N5391 through 1N5399 series, manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. It features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 300V and an average forward current rating of 1.5A at 70°C ambient temperature. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and utilizes a DO-15 axial leaded package. Electrical characteristics include a maximum DC blocking voltage of 210V, a typical junction capacitance of 20pF measured at 1.0MHz with 4.0V reverse bias, and a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.1V at 1.5A. The component supports a peak forward surge current of 50A for an 8.3ms half-sine wave pulse.

Feature Summary

• Provides high current capability with low leakage current performance.
• Constructed with epoxy material that meets UL 94 V-0 flammability ratings.
• Features a built-in strain relief design within the plastic encapsulation.

Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supply circuits.
• AC to DC conversion stages requiring standard recovery characteristics.
• Industrial equipment utilizing axial leaded diode configurations.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm packaging format, as the BP designation indicates bulk packing. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS status and halogen-free availability if needed. Ensure the procurement channel is an authorized distributor to guarantee genuine parts and full traceability. Check for any recent product change notices regarding marking or electrical specifications before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 300V reverse voltage rating and 1.5A continuous current capacity are required. The DO-15 package is suitable for through-hole mounting applications where higher thermal dissipation is beneficial compared to smaller packages. Consider the 26°C/W thermal resistance for heat sinking calculations. Verify that the standard recovery speed aligns with the circuit frequency requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5391 through 1N5399 series of 1.5 Amp rectifiers covering voltages from 50V to 1000V. The series shares common physical dimensions and general electrical behaviors, differentiated primarily by their breakdown voltage ratings. The 1N5395 variant specifically targets applications requiring a 300V blocking capability within this standardized family.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 1N5395 equivalents ensuring identical 300V reverse voltage and 1.5A forward current ratings. Verify package compatibility with the DO-15 form factor. Confirm that replacement devices meet the same thermal resistance and surge current specifications for direct substitution.
