1N4095

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microsemi Corporation 1N4095 is a silicon unidirectional Zener diode housed in a DO-35 (DO-204AA) axial leaded package. It features a nominal Zener voltage of 5 V with a tolerance of 10%. The device is rated for a maximum power dissipation of 0.275 W at ambient temperature. Designed for through-hole mounting, it serves as a voltage regulator or reference component in electronic circuits.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Unidirectional Zener voltage regulation capability
• Silicon junction construction for stable performance
• Axial leaded package design for through-hole integration

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage regulation in low-power circuits
• Voltage reference applications
• Overvoltage protection for sensitive components

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the current lifecycle status before procurement, as multiple sources indicate the 1N4095 is scheduled for obsolescence and may be discontinued by the manufacturer. Confirm availability with authorized distributors and ensure compatibility with existing designs given potential supply constraints. Check for RoHS compliance requirements specific to your project needs.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5 V Zener voltage with 10% tolerance is required in a small axial package. Ensure the circuit's power dissipation does not exceed 0.275 W. Consider the obsolescence status and evaluate alternative available parts if long-term supply stability is critical for the application.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

The 1N4095 belongs to the standard Zener diode family produced by Microsemi Corporation, now part of Microchip Technology. These devices are commonly used in general-purpose electronics for voltage clamping and regulation. The DO-35 package provides a compact solution for through-hole PCB assembly, suitable for various industrial and consumer applications.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not explicitly listed in the provided source material. Due to the stated obsolescence status, verify equivalent 5 V Zener diodes in DO-35 packages from other manufacturers that meet the 0.275 W power rating and 10% tolerance specifications.
