1N5624GPHE3/54

Overview

The Vishay 1N5624GPHE3/54 is a standard avalanche sinterglass diode housed in an SOD-64 package. It features a 200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage and a 3 A average forward current rating. The device supports a peak forward surge current of 100 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -55 °C to +175 °C. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 1 V at 3 A, a breakdown voltage of 1600 V, and a typical reverse recovery time of 3.5 µs.

Feature Summary

• Glass passivated junction with hermetically sealed package
• Controlled avalanche characteristics for high reliability
• Low reverse leakage current across operating temperatures
• High surge current loading capability

Applications

• General purpose rectification diodes
• Inductive load switch-off protection
• Power supply circuits requiring avalanche ratings

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix HE3/54 against official documentation to confirm compliance details and packaging format. Confirm that the SOD-64 axial lead configuration matches the intended mechanical assembly requirements. Ensure the ordering code aligns with the required tape and reel or ammopack quantities specified by the manufacturer.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 200 V blocking voltage and 3 A continuous current are required in a compact axial package. The controlled avalanche characteristic makes it suitable for applications involving inductive switching where energy absorption is necessary. Verify thermal resistance constraints based on the specific lead length and mounting position used in the design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5624 through 1N5627 series from Vishay Semiconductors. All models share identical current and package specifications but differ in their repetitive peak reverse voltage ratings. The 1N5624 specifically provides the lowest voltage rating within this standardized family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same Vishay series include 1N5625 (400 V), 1N5626 (600 V), and 1N5627 (800 V). These parts maintain the same SOD-64 package and current ratings while offering higher voltage capabilities.
