1N5236B-T

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N5236B-T is a silicon planar power Zener diode in the DO-35 (DO-204AH) axial package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 7.5 V with a standard ±5% tolerance, indicated by the 'B' suffix. The device operates at a test current of 20 mA and dissipates up to 500 mW. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum dynamic resistance of 6 Ω and a typical temperature coefficient of 0.058 %/K.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon planar technology for robust voltage regulation
• Features a glass DO-35 axial leaded package for through-hole mounting
• Provides stable voltage stabilization with defined thermal equilibrium specifications

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage stabilization circuits
• Reference voltage generation
• Overvoltage protection

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering code includes the -T suffix to confirm tape-and-reel packaging rather than ammopack or box formats. Ensure the specific B-suffix variant matches the required ±5% voltage tolerance. Confirm compliance with RoHS directives if restricted materials are prohibited in the target assembly process.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 7.5 V reference is needed in an axial package. The 500 mW power rating supports moderate current loads. Verify that the operating junction temperature remains within the specified range to maintain the stated voltage accuracy and leakage current limits during continuous operation.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay 1N5221 to 1N5267 series of small signal Zener diodes. The series covers a wide voltage range from 2.4 V to 75 V. Variants are available in different packages including MiniMELF, SOT-23, and SOD-123, allowing design flexibility for space-constrained applications while maintaining similar electrical performance profiles.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering 1N5236 equivalents in the DO-35 package. Ensure replacement parts match the 7.5 V nominal voltage, 500 mW power dissipation, and 6 Ω dynamic impedance specifications to maintain circuit stability.
