1N5395-E3/73

Overview

The Vishay 1N5395-E3/73 is a general-purpose plastic rectifier featuring a DO-41 (DO-204AL) molded epoxy body. It provides a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 400 V and supports a maximum average forward rectified current of 1.5 A at 25 °C. The device exhibits a typical instantaneous forward voltage of 1.4 V at 1.5 A, with a maximum DC reverse current of 5.0 μA at rated blocking voltage. It withstands a peak forward surge current of 50 A for an 8.3 ms single half sine-wave. Operating junction and storage temperatures range from -50 to +150 °C.

Feature Summary

• Low forward voltage drop
• Low leakage current
• High forward surge capability

Applications

• General purpose rectification of power supplies
• Inverters
• Converters
• Freewheeling diodes application

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm packaging details. The /73 designation indicates ammo pack packaging with a base quantity of 3000 units. Confirm RoHS compliance status and material categorization definitions via the manufacturer's official compliance resources before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component for circuits requiring standard recovery characteristics in general-purpose applications. Ensure the design accommodates the specified thermal resistance values and derating curves for ambient temperatures exceeding 25 °C. Validate that the 400 V reverse voltage rating meets the circuit's peak inverse voltage requirements under all operating conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N5391 through 1N5399 series of general-purpose plastic rectifiers. All variants share identical mechanical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and electrical performance parameters except for the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage rating, which varies across the series from 50 V to 1000 V.
