Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm lead-free status, as variations such as TIN/LEAD exist. Confirm the packaging format matches requirements, as sources indicate both Reel and Cut Tape options. Ensure the manufacturer designation aligns with Central Semiconductor Corp specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 7.5 V reference with 250 mW dissipation is required. Consider the DO-35 package for through-hole mounting constraints. Evaluate the ±5% voltage tolerance against circuit sensitivity requirements. Verify thermal management capabilities given the high maximum operating temperature specification.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Central Semiconductor Zener diode family. It shares the DO-35 form factor with other axial-lead components from the manufacturer. The product line includes variants with different voltage ratings and tolerance levels. The PBFREE designation indicates compliance with specific environmental standards regarding restricted substances.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with JANTX1N4100C/TR for hermetic sealed alternatives. Note that the JANTX variant offers 2% tolerance and 0.48 W power dissipation. Verify pinout compatibility and package dimensions before substituting.
