1N6016C

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N6016C is a 47 V Zener diode housed in an axial-lead DO-35 glass package. It provides a nominal voltage of 47 V with a tight 2% tolerance and operates at a test current of 2 mA. The device dissipates up to 500 mW, exhibits a dynamic impedance of 170 Ohms, and maintains a temperature coefficient of +0.096 %/°C. It functions reliably across a wide junction temperature range from -65 °C to +175 °C.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides precise voltage regulation within a narrow 2% tolerance band for stable circuit performance.
• Features hermetically sealed glass construction ensuring durability in harsh environments.
• Capable of operating effectively over a broad temperature spectrum without sensitivity to electrostatic discharge.

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring high stability
• Overvoltage protection networks
• Precision power supply regulation

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C' indicates the required 2% tolerance level against official datasheets. Confirm RoHS compliance status as it varies by commercial grade. Ensure the ordering prefix matches the desired reliability screening level if military equivalents are needed. Cross-reference the JEDEC type number to validate electrical parameters before finalizing procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 47 V breakdown voltage with strict 2% accuracy is necessary. The DO-35 package suits through-hole designs requiring flexible axial leads. Consider the positive temperature coefficient for thermal compensation needs. Evaluate the maximum regulator current limits to ensure adequate headroom for the intended load conditions.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the extensive 1N5985B-1 through 1N6031B-1 series of 0.5 W Zener regulators. The series covers voltages from 2.4 V to 200 V with multiple tolerance options. It shares mechanical dimensions and basic electrical characteristics with other members of this family while differing in specific voltage ratings and tolerance grades.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include 1N6016B (5% tolerance) or 1N6016D (1% tolerance). Verify that substitute components match the 47 V nominal rating and DO-35 package footprint. Check that replacement devices support the same maximum power dissipation and operating temperature ranges.
