1N5232B-TR

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N5232B-TR is a silicon planar power Zener diode with a nominal voltage of 5.6 V and ±5% tolerance. It operates in the DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial leaded package, dissipating up to 500 mW at thermal equilibrium. Key electrical parameters include a maximum dynamic resistance of 11 Ω, reverse leakage current of 5 µA at 3 V, and a temperature coefficient of 0.038 %/K. The device supports junction temperatures up to 175 °C and features a hermetically sealed glass construction.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering code matches the specific suffix required for your application. Confirm the package type corresponds to DO-35 or DO-204AH standards. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if applicable to your manufacturing process. Validate the component's suitability for your specific operating temperature range before finalizing procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 5.6 V reference is needed in an axial leaded package. Consider the 500 mW power dissipation limit and the 11 Ω dynamic impedance for circuit stability. Verify that the ±5% tolerance meets the precision requirements of the design. Check the maximum junction temperature rating against the expected thermal environment.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5221 to 1N5267 series of small signal Zener diodes manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors. The series covers a wide range of voltages from 2.4 V to 75 V. The -TR suffix indicates the device is supplied in a taped and reel format for automated assembly processes.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same Vishay series include other 1N52xx variants with different voltage ratings. Cross-manufacturer equivalents may exist but require verification of package dimensions and electrical characteristics.
