1N5241B_T50A

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The onsemi 1N5241B_T50A is a single-channel Zener diode designed for through-hole mounting in the DO-35 axial glass package. It features a nominal Zener voltage of 11V with a 5% tolerance and a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW. The device operates within a temperature range of -65 °C to +200 °C, with a test current of 20 mA and a maximum reverse leakage current of 2 µA.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation using a single unidirectional silicon junction.
• Utilizes a glass-passivated DO-35 axial package for robust through-hole integration.
• Supports extended thermal operation up to +200 °C for demanding environments.

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring precise potential levels
• Overvoltage protection stages in electronic systems
• General-purpose clipping and clamping applications

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix T50A against official datasheets to confirm packaging details and compliance status. Ensure the component matches the required 11V nominal voltage and 500 mW power rating for the intended circuit design before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 11V Zener reference is needed in an axial glass package. Consider the 500 mW power limit and the wide operating temperature range when evaluating suitability for high-reliability or thermally challenging applications compared to surface-mount alternatives.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N52xx series of Zener diodes manufactured by onsemi. These components are widely used in discrete semiconductor applications where reliable voltage regulation is required. The DO-35 package provides a standardized footprint for legacy and modern through-hole designs.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other manufacturers' 1N5241B variants in the DO-35 package. Verify that alternative parts meet the same 11V nominal voltage, 5% tolerance, and 500 mW power dissipation specifications to ensure functional equivalence.
