1N5246B-TP

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The MCC 1N5246B-TP is a single silicon Zener diode housed in a DO-35 glass axial package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 16 V with a test current of 7.8 mA and a maximum impedance of 17 Ohms at that current. The device supports a DC power dissipation of 500 mW, with a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.1 µA. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and features a positive voltage temperature coefficient of +0.083 %/°C.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation to confirm tolerance levels and packaging options. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS status and moisture sensitivity ratings prior to integration. Ensure sourcing from authorized distributors to guarantee part authenticity and traceability.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 16 V reference is required in a through-hole configuration. Consider the thermal derating curve for operation above 50°C. Verify that the 5% voltage tolerance meets circuit precision requirements compared to tighter tolerance alternatives.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the 1N52xxB series of low-power Zener diodes manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series covers a wide voltage range from 2.4 V to 75 V in the DO-35 package. The 'B' suffix specifically denotes a 5% tolerance on the nominal Zener voltage.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering the 1N5246B designation in the DO-35 package. Verify pinout compatibility and ensure equivalent electrical parameters such as impedance and leakage current are met.
