1N4696D/TR

Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N4696D/TR is a Zener diode with a nominal voltage of 9.1 V and a tolerance of 5%. It operates in the DO-35 axial leaded package, dissipating up to 500 mW. The device supports a reverse current of 1 uA and withstands temperatures from -65°C to +175°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation across a broad operating temperature range
• Features glass axial-leaded construction for environmental durability
• Offers high thermal stability suitable for demanding applications

Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring stable DC levels
• Overvoltage protection in sensitive electronic systems
• Clamping applications in signal processing paths

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'D' indicates the required 5% tolerance against official datasheets. Confirm the 'TR' designation aligns with reel packaging requirements. Ensure the manufacturer is identified as Microchip or its predecessor entity for compatibility. Validate RoHS status if restricted materials are prohibited in the final assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 9.1 V reference is needed in an axial package. Compare leakage current specifications against circuit sensitivity requirements. Evaluate power dissipation limits relative to ambient thermal conditions. Consider the operating temperature range to ensure reliability under extreme environmental stress.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4678 through 1N4717 series of 0.5 W Zener voltage regulators. The series provides a wide selection of voltages from 1.8 V to 43 V. These components are widely used in general-purpose regulation tasks where moderate precision and robustness are prioritized over ultra-low noise performance.

Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include other 9.1 V Zener diodes in the DO-35 package with similar power ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substitution.
