1N5248B-TP

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The MCC 1N5248B-TP is a 0.5W Zener diode with an 18V nominal voltage and 5% tolerance, housed in a DO-35 glass axial package. It operates within a -55°C to +150°C range and dissipates up to 500mW DC power. Key electrical parameters include a maximum impedance of 21 Ohms at 7mA test current, 0.1µA reverse leakage at 14V, and a temperature coefficient of +0.085%/°C.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation using a metallurgically bonded glass axial-leaded structure.
• Supports high-temperature soldering conditions for robust manufacturing integration.
• Features a hermetically sealed glass package designed for reliable long-term operation.
