1N5398-AP

Overview

The MCC 1N5398-AP is a silicon rectifier diode in the 1N5391 through 1N5399 series, housed in a DO-15 axial leaded package. It provides a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 800V and a maximum RMS voltage of 560V. The device supports an average forward rectified current of 1.5A at 70°C ambient temperature and withstands a peak forward surge current of 50A for an 8.3ms half-sine pulse. Electrical characteristics include a maximum instantaneous forward voltage of 1.1V at 1.5A and a maximum DC reverse current of 5.0μA at 25°C. The junction capacitance is typically 20pF measured at 1.0MHz with 4.0V reverse bias.

Feature Summary

• Features low leakage current capabilities suitable for high-voltage applications
• Provides high current capability within the 1.5 Ampere rating class
• Constructed with epoxy material meeting UL 94 V-0 flammability classification

Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supply circuits
• High voltage blocking applications requiring 800V standoff
• Industrial equipment utilizing resistive or inductive loads

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific -AP suffix indicates Ammo Pack packaging containing 3,000 units per box. Confirm RoHS compliance status as the datasheet notes the 'P' suffix designates compliant parts, while standard numbering may vary. Ensure procurement channels are authorized distributors to guarantee genuine product traceability and quality standards. Check for halogen-free availability if required by adding the '-HF' suffix to the part number.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an 800V reverse voltage rating is required alongside a 1.5A continuous current capacity. The DO-15 package offers robust mechanical stability for through-hole mounting. Consider the thermal resistance of 26°C/W junction-to-lead for heat dissipation planning. Verify that the operating temperature range of -55°C to +150°C aligns with the environmental conditions of the target application.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5391 through 1N5399 series of 1.5 Amp rectifiers manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series covers voltage ratings from 50V to 1000V, allowing designers to select appropriate breakdown voltages for various circuit requirements. The 1N5398 specifically targets the 800V segment of this standardized lineup.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 800V reverse voltage, 1.5A forward current, and DO-15 package dimensions. Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering JEDEC registered equivalents in the same current and voltage class.
