1N4760A-TP

Overview

The MCC 1N4760A-TP is a silicon planar Zener diode housed in a hermetic DO-41 glass package. It provides a nominal voltage of 68 V with a 5% tolerance, rated for 1.0 W power dissipation at 50°C ambient temperature. The device features a maximum reverse leakage current of 5 µA and a dynamic impedance of 150 Ω at the test current of 3.7 mA. Operating temperatures range from -65°C to +200°C.

Feature Summary

• Hermetic glass package construction
• Silicon planar technology
• Lead-free finish compliant

Applications

• Voltage regulation circuits
• Surge protection applications
• Reference voltage sources

Procurement Notes

Verify authenticity by purchasing directly from Micro Commercial Components or authorized distributors. Counterfeit parts pose significant risks; unauthorized sources lack traceability and quality assurance. Confirm RoHS compliance status via official documentation before integration into designs requiring specific environmental standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component for through-hole applications requiring stable voltage reference within the specified temperature range. Ensure thermal derating calculations account for the 10 mW/°C reduction above 100°C. Verify that the 150 Ω dynamic impedance meets circuit requirements for noise sensitivity.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N4728 through 1N4761 series manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series covers voltages from 3.3 V to 75 V in the DO-41G package. The 'A' suffix indicates a 5% voltage tolerance, while the '-TP' suffix designates tape and reel packaging containing 5,000 pieces per reel.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering 1N4760A specifications in DO-41 packages. Verify identical pinout, voltage tolerance, and thermal characteristics. Ensure replacement parts meet the same hermetic sealing and lead-free finish requirements.
