1N4627 BK TIN/LEAD

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Central Semiconductor Corp 1N4627 BK TIN/LEAD is a single silicon Zener diode housed in the DO-35 axial through-hole package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 6.2 V with a 5% tolerance and a maximum power dissipation of 0.5 W at 25°C ambient temperature. The device features a maximum reverse leakage current of 1 µA, a dynamic impedance of 1200 Ω, and a maximum forward voltage of 1 V. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 175°C.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation via the Zener breakdown effect for circuit protection and reference applications.
• Utilizes a molded glass DO-35 axial leaded package designed for reliable through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards.
• Constructed from silicon material ensuring unidirectional operation and robust thermal performance across wide operating temperatures.

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage regulation in low-power electronic circuits
• Overvoltage protection for sensitive semiconductor components
• Reference voltage generation in analog signal processing

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against manufacturer documentation to confirm lead-free compliance and packaging format. Confirm that the DO-35 package dimensions align with target PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the 0.5 W power rating accommodates expected thermal conditions without exceeding the maximum junction temperature limit during continuous operation.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 6.2 V reference is required in a compact axial package. The 5% voltage tolerance suits general-purpose regulation tasks where tight precision is not critical. Consider the 1200 Ω dynamic impedance for noise sensitivity; higher impedance may require additional filtering in low-noise applications compared to lower impedance alternatives.
