1N4707-TP

Overview

The MCC 1N4707-TP is a 500mW silicon Zener diode with a nominal voltage of 20V and a standard tolerance of ±5%. It operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +200°C. The device features a hermetically sealed glass DO-35 package, ensuring high reliability. Electrical characteristics include a maximum reverse leakage current of 50µA at the rated voltage and a maximum forward voltage of 1.5V at 100mA.

Feature Summary

• Hermetically sealed double slug type glass construction for high reliability
• Very sharp reverse characteristic for precise voltage regulation
• Standard ±5% tolerance on nominal Zener voltage

Applications

• Voltage reference circuits
• Overvoltage protection
• General purpose rectification

Procurement Notes

Verify authenticity by purchasing directly from Micro Commercial Components or authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit parts. Confirm the specific suffix (e.g., -TP for Tape & Reel) matches the required packaging format. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements if applicable to the design specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a stable 20V reference in through-hole designs. Consider the 500mW power dissipation limit and the operating temperature range when designing thermal management. Verify that the ±5% voltage tolerance aligns with the circuit's precision requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4678 through 1N4717 series of 500mW silicon Zener diodes manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series covers a wide voltage range from 1.8V to 43V, providing options for various low-power regulation needs.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other manufacturers' 1N4707 equivalents in the DO-35 package. Ensure replacement parts meet the same 500mW power rating, 20V nominal voltage, and ±5% tolerance specifications.
