DESCRIPTION
APPEARANCE
This series of rectifier diodes provide a cost-effective plastic surface mount package
with similar electrical parameters as the popular 1N5550 through 1N5554 series. It
fits the same footprint as the DO-214AB (SMC) package. Also its rectangular profile
design makes it easy to handle compared to cylindrical body style packages such as
its standard 1N5550-1N5554US counterpart. This robust design also provides stress
relief with its popular J-bend contacts when mounted on various substrate materials.
It unique axial subassembly also provides a very efficient thermal path for power
dissipation for its 5 Amp forward (IO) current rating and superior surge performance.
This also provides the same low thermal resistance of its military counterpart also
offered by Microsemi in the Tungsten slug surface mount package.
