1N6027C

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Microchip Technology 1N6027C is a 500 mW Zener voltage regulator with a nominal breakdown voltage of 130 V and a 2% tolerance. It operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C and features a hermetically sealed glass DO-35 axial package. The device exhibits a maximum dynamic impedance of 99 Ohms at the test current, a typical temperature coefficient of +0.110 %/°C, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.1 µA.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Internal metallurgical bonds ensuring high reliability
• Non-sensitive to electrostatic discharge events
• Inherently radiation hard design

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage regulation over broad operating current ranges
• Temperature-compensated reference circuits
• High-reliability aerospace and defense systems

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number suffix matches the required tolerance level and screening standard. Confirm RoHS compliance status if applicable, as commercial versions may differ from military equivalents. Ensure the ordering documentation explicitly references the correct JEDEC type number and power dissipation rating to avoid substitution errors.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 130 V reference is required in a ruggedized environment. The 2% tolerance provides tighter voltage control than standard commercial variants. Consider the positive temperature coefficient for applications requiring predictable voltage shifts across wide thermal cycles.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This device belongs to the 1N5985B-1 through 1N6031B-1 series of 0.5 watt Zener diodes. The series covers a voltage selection from 2.4 to 200 volts. These components are registered with JEDEC and serve as equivalents to European Pro Electron BZX55 series products.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include other 1N6027 variants with matching 130 V ratings and 2% tolerances. Verify package compatibility and thermal resistance specifications before substituting.
