Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the authenticity of the component by checking for official Micro Commercial Components markings and authorized distributor documentation. Confirm that the 'TP' suffix corresponds to tape and reel packaging as specified in the manufacturer's ordering information. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards and verify lead-free finish requirements before procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 2.8 V reference is required in through-hole designs. The DO-35 package offers standard axial lead spacing suitable for general-purpose PCB layouts. Consider the 500 mW power dissipation limit and derating curve above 50°C during thermal analysis to ensure reliable operation under varying load conditions.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5221B through 1N5267B series of 500 mW Zener diodes manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series covers a wide voltage range from 2.4 V to 75 V, all sharing the same DO-35 glass encapsulation and electrical testing methodologies defined in the common datasheet.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include the generic JEDEC registered 1N5224B available from other manufacturers such as Microchip Technology or Formosa MS. Verify that replacement devices match the 2.8 V nominal voltage, 500 mW power rating, and DO-35 package dimensions.
