1N5233B BK TIN/LEAD

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Central Semiconductor Corp 1N5233B BK TIN/LEAD is a silicon Zener diode designed for voltage regulation in industrial, commercial, entertainment, and computer applications. It features a DO-35 axial lead package with a maximum steady-state power dissipation of 500 mW at a lead temperature of 75°C. The nominal Zener voltage is 6.0 V with a ±5% tolerance range (5.700 V to 6.300 V). Electrical characteristics include a maximum Zener impedance of 7.0 Ω at the test current of 20 mA, a maximum reverse current of 5.0 μA at 3.5 V, and a maximum temperature coefficient of +0.038 %/°C.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix requirements when placing orders. The datasheet specifies that requesting Tin/Lead plated devices requires adding the suffix “TIN/LEAD” to the part number. Confirm that the component meets all necessary environmental regulations and compliance standards required for your specific manufacturing process before finalizing procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6.0 V Zener voltage with ±5% tolerance is required for through-hole mounting. Ensure the design accommodates the 500 mW power dissipation limit and operates within the specified -65°C to +200°C junction temperature range. Verify that the DO-35 package dimensions fit the printed circuit board layout constraints.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the 1N5221B through 1N5278B series of silicon Zener diodes manufactured by Central Semiconductor Corp. The series provides a wide selection of voltages from 2.4 V to 170 V in the same DO-35 case style. The 'B' suffix indicates the standard 5% voltage tolerance classification for this product line.
