1N4735A-T

Overview

The Vishay 1N4735A-T is a silicon planar power Zener diode in the DO-41 (DO-204AL) through-hole package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 6.2 V with a standard tolerance of ± 5 %. The device dissipates up to 1300 mW at thermal equilibrium and operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C. Electrical characteristics include a test current of 41 mA, a maximum reverse leakage current of 10 μA, and a dynamic resistance of 3 Ω at the test current.

Feature Summary

• Silicon planar construction for high power rating applications
• Standardized Zener voltage tolerance of ± 5 %
• Designed for use in stabilizing and clipping circuits

Applications

• Voltage stabilization
• Clipping circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix '-T' corresponds to the 'TAP' configuration specified in the datasheet, which indicates an ammopack format. Confirm compliance requirements against the manufacturer's material categorization documentation. Ensure lead temperatures are maintained during soldering to prevent damage.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6.2 V reference is required in a through-hole assembly. The DO-41 package supports a peak power dissipation of 1300 mW under specific thermal conditions. Verify that the circuit design accommodates the 41 mA test current and the 3 Ω dynamic impedance for accurate regulation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N4728A to 1N4761A series of silicon planar power Zener diodes. The series covers a wide voltage range from 3.3 V to 75 V, all utilizing the same DO-41 plastic encapsulation. These devices are JEDEC registered and intended for general-purpose voltage regulation tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering the 1N4735A designation in the DO-41 package. Ensure replacement parts match the 6.2 V nominal voltage, 5 % tolerance, and 1 W power dissipation ratings.
