1N5235B_S00Z

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The onsemi 1N5235B_S00Z is a silicon unidirectional voltage regulator diode designed for through-hole mounting in the DO-204AH (DO-35) axial leaded package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 6.8 V with a tolerance of ±5%. The device dissipates up to 500 mW and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +200°C junction temperature. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum reverse leakage current of 3 µA at 5 V, a Zener impedance of 5 Ohms, and a forward voltage of 1.1 V. The component is manufactured using epitaxial silicon technology.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix _S00Z against official onsemi documentation to confirm packaging configuration and lot traceability requirements. Ensure compliance with RoHS and REACH directives as specified in the latest datasheet. Confirm availability status directly with authorized distributors, as production cycles may vary. Validate that the DO-35 package dimensions match your PCB footprint constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 6.8 V reference is required in a through-hole design. The 500 mW power rating suits low-current applications where thermal management is limited. Verify that the operating current remains within the test current specifications to maintain the ±5% voltage tolerance. Consider the wide operating temperature range for environments subject to significant thermal fluctuations.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the standard 1N523x series of 500 mW Zener diodes, widely used across industrial and consumer electronics. The 1N5235B designation specifically identifies the 6.8 V variant within this family. Manufactured by onsemi, it adheres to established JEDEC mechanical outlines for the DO-35 glass axial package, ensuring compatibility with legacy designs and automated insertion equipment.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' 1N5235B parts, such as those from Microchip or Fairchild, noting potential differences in maximum operating temperature ratings between -65°C/+200°C and -65°C/+150°C variants.
