• High reliability systems specified by source control drawings

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against official documentation before procurement. Confirm that the 'TR' suffix indicates tape and reel packaging as defined in the datasheet. Ensure compatibility with RoHS compliance requirements if applicable, noting that 'e3' suffixes denote RoHS compliant devices. Cross-reference the manufacturer's current part numbering conventions to avoid ordering errors.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1.0 W surface mount Zener diode with a 4.3 V breakdown voltage is required. The DO-213AB package offers an alternative to axial leads for space-constrained designs. Consider the ±5% tolerance standard unless tighter specifications are needed. Verify thermal derating curves for steady-state power dissipation based on ambient temperature and mounting conditions.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4728AUR through 1N4764AUR series of surface mount glass Zener diodes. The series covers Zener voltages from 3.3 V to 100 V. These devices are electrically similar to the traditional 1N4728A through 1N4764A registrations but utilize the DO-213AB outline. The series includes options for various tolerances and screening standards.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

The 1N4731AUR is the direct electrical equivalent without the tape and reel suffix. Surface mount equivalents such as MLL4731A may be considered. Axial leaded versions like 1N4731A are electrically similar but differ in package type.
