1N5233B-TR

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N5233B-TR is a silicon planar power Zener diode with a nominal voltage of 6 V and ±5% tolerance. It operates in the DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial leaded package, dissipating up to 500 mW at thermal equilibrium. The device features a maximum reverse leakage current of 5 µA at 3.5 V and a dynamic impedance of 7 Ω at a test current of 20 mA. It supports a junction temperature range from -65 °C to +175 °C.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon planar technology for robust voltage regulation
• Provides standard ±5% Zener voltage tolerance
• Operates reliably across an extended temperature range

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage stabilization circuits

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering code matches the required suffix for tape-and-reel packaging. Confirm compliance requirements against the material categorization definitions provided by the manufacturer. Ensure the selected component meets the specific electrical tolerances needed for the target application before finalizing procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6 V reference is required within the 1N5221 to 1N5267 series. The DO-35 package suits through-hole designs requiring moderate power dissipation. Evaluate the thermal resistance characteristics if operating near the maximum power limits or elevated ambient temperatures.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N5221 to 1N5267 series of small signal Zener diodes. The series offers a wide selection of voltages from 2.4 V to 75 V in the same glass axial-lead package family. Other variants include tighter tolerance options and alternative surface-mount packages like MiniMELF and SOT-23.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same Vishay series include other 1N52xxB-TR devices with different nominal voltages but identical package and power ratings.
