Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the component status as End-of-Life (EOL) prior to procurement. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required packaging format, such as tape and reel or bulk. Ensure sourcing from authorized distributors to guarantee authenticity and traceability. Review the manufacturer's product change notifications for any updates regarding specifications or manufacturing locations.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component based on its 4.3 V nominal breakdown voltage and ±5% tolerance requirement. Consider the 1 W power dissipation capability and the thermal resistance characteristics when designing heat management strategies. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the application's environmental demands. Check compatibility with the target PCB footprint for the DO-41G axial leaded package.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4728A through 1N4761 series of 1.0 Watt Zener diodes manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series covers a wide voltage selection from 3.3 Volts to 75 Volts. The 'A' suffix indicates a 5% voltage tolerance, distinguishing it from standard or tighter tolerance variants within the same family.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include Nexperia USA Inc. equivalents. Other manufacturers producing identical 1N4731A specifications in DO-41 packages may also serve as functional replacements, provided their electrical ratings match the original requirements.
