1N5076

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The 1N5076 is a unidirectional voltage regulator diode manufactured by Digitron. It is constructed from silicon and features a single-element configuration housed in an O-XALF-W2 package with two terminals. The device supports an operating temperature range of -65 °C to 175 °C and a storage temperature up to 200 °C. Key electrical specifications include a maximum dynamic impedance of 12 Ω at 25 °C. The component is not RoHS compliant and has an isolated case connection.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation using silicon-based unidirectional technology
• Designed for high-temperature operation with extended thermal limits
• Features an isolated case connection for specific mounting requirements

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage regulation circuits requiring high thermal stability
• Electronic systems operating in extreme temperature environments
• Power supply protection applications utilizing unidirectional characteristics

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as the model number is associated with Digitron in official documentation rather than Microchip Technology. Confirm RoHS non-compliance status prior to integration into environmentally restricted assemblies. Ensure the O-XALF-W2 package dimensions align with the target PCB layout. Validate that the 12 Ω dynamic impedance meets circuit performance requirements.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a unidirectional silicon zener diode with high-temperature capability is required. The wide operating temperature range makes it suitable for harsh environments. Consider the isolated case feature if electrical isolation from the mounting surface is necessary. Verify that the specific package form factor fits the mechanical constraints of the design.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the class of discrete semiconductor voltage regulator diodes. It utilizes standard silicon junction technology for voltage reference and regulation functions. The part is distinct from rectifiers or current regulators, focusing specifically on maintaining a constant voltage across its terminals under reverse bias conditions within specified power limits.
