• Radiation-hardened circuit designs

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against official documentation to confirm tolerance and packaging details. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by the application. Check for availability of screening options such as MIL-PRF-19500 variants if military specifications are necessary. Ensure the ordering part number matches the desired voltage tolerance and tape & reel quantity.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a 3.3 V reference in a surface mount form factor. The DO-213AB package offers a leadless design beneficial for space-constrained layouts. Consider the thermal resistance of 50 °C/W junction to end cap when designing heat dissipation paths. Verify that the 1.0 W power dissipation rating meets the steady-state requirements of the target circuit under expected ambient conditions.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the 1N4728UR thru 1N4764AUR series of surface mount 1.0 W glass Zener diodes. It is electrically equivalent to the JEDEC registered 1N4728A thru 1N4764A series but utilizes the DO-213AB outline instead of the DO-41 axial package. The series covers Zener voltages from 3.3 V to 100 V, providing a wide selection for various regulation needs.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Equivalent axial-leaded parts include the 1N4728A series. Surface mount equivalents are available as SMAJ4728A. Alternate naming includes MLL4728A.
