1N5262B-TR

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Vishay 1N5262B-TR is a silicon planar power Zener diode with a nominal voltage of 51 V and a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW. It features a standard tolerance of ±5% indicated by the 'B' suffix, a test current of 2.5 mA, and a dynamic impedance of 125 Ω at that current. The device operates within a temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C and utilizes a DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass axial package.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Silicon planar construction for reliable voltage regulation
• Standardized ±5% Zener voltage tolerance
• High thermal stability across extended temperature ranges

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage stabilization circuits

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code matches the required tolerance level, as the 'B' suffix denotes ±5%. Confirm the package type corresponds to DO-35 (DO-204AH). Ensure the procurement documentation aligns with the manufacturer's latest datasheet revision to account for potential specification updates or material categorization changes.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 51 V reference is needed with moderate tolerance requirements. The 500 mW rating supports applications requiring higher power handling than small signal variants. Verify that the operating environment stays within the specified junction temperature limits to maintain performance integrity.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 1N5221 to 1N5267 series of small signal Zener diodes manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors. The series covers a wide voltage range from 2.4 V to 75 V, providing standardized options for various circuit design needs. The 'B' suffix specifically identifies the ±5% tolerance variant within this family.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 51 V nominal voltage, 500 mW power rating, and DO-35 package. Other manufacturers producing equivalent Zener diodes should be evaluated based on their specific electrical characteristics and thermal resistance values.
