HSMCJ5550

This HSMCJ5550 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 HSMCJ5550 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 (I_O) current rating and superior surge performance.  dissipation for its 5 Amp forward This also provides the same low thermal resistance of its military counterpart also offered by Microsemi in the Tungsten slug surface mount package.
