Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering code suffix matches the required tape configuration, as the datasheet specifies distinct codes for taped units per reel versus ammopack formats. Confirm compliance with RoHS3 standards and ensure the component meets AEC-Q101 automotive qualification requirements if deployed in vehicle systems. Validate lead temperatures during soldering do not exceed the specified peak limits.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 56 V regulation point is required with a 1.3 W power rating. Ensure the application circuit maintains the leads at ambient temperature within 4 mm of the case to achieve the rated power dissipation. Verify that the operating current falls within the specified test current range to maintain the ±5 % voltage tolerance accuracy.
