1N5552 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 1N5552 is part of the 1N5550-1N5554 series of standard recovery rectifier diodes from Microchip Technology (formerly Microsemi). These devices feature voidless hermetically sealed glass construction with quadruple-layer passivation, ensuring high reliability in demanding environments. The 1N5552 is qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/420 and available in JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, and JANS versions.

 

Key electrical specifications include a maximum reverse voltage of 600V, average forward current of 3A at TA=55°C, forward voltage drop of 1.2V at 9A, and reverse recovery time of 2µs. The diode can handle a surge current of 100A (8.3ms half sine) and operates over a junction temperature range of -65°C to 175°C.

 

The device is supplied in a through-hole B, Axial package (also known as D-5B). It is designed for high-reliability applications such as military power supplies, bridge rectifiers, and catch diodes. Controlled avalanche characteristics provide peak reverse power capability and inherent radiation hardness.
