1N5235B/TR

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N5235B/TR is a 0.5 W glass axial-lead Zener diode in the DO-35 package, featuring a nominal voltage of 6.8 V with ±5% tolerance (suffix B). It operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +175°C and includes a tape-and-reel option indicated by the TR suffix.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation across broad operating current and temperature ranges
• Features hermetically sealed glass axial-lead construction for durability
• Offers flexible mounting terminals compatible with standard through-hole processes

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring stable bias points
• Overvoltage protection stages in electronic systems
• General-purpose voltage regulation tasks

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the part number explicitly includes the TR suffix to confirm tape-and-reel packaging rather than bulk supply. Ensure the B suffix is present to guarantee the required 5% voltage tolerance specification. Confirm the manufacturer origin matches the specified datasheet documentation before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6.8 V breakdown voltage is required with tight manufacturing tolerances. The DO-35 glass package provides robust environmental sealing suitable for demanding conditions. Verify that the 0.5 W power dissipation rating aligns with the thermal design constraints of the target application environment.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the 1N5221 through 1N5281B series of 0.5 W Zener Voltage Regulators. The series offers a wide selection of voltages from 2.4 to 200 volts. Standard tolerances are available with A or B suffixes, while tighter options exist with C or D suffixes.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Consult the official datasheet for equivalent parts within the same series. Verify that any substitute maintains the identical 6.8 V nominal voltage and 5% tolerance requirements.
