2EZ17D5-TP

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The 2EZ17D5-TP is a 2.0 W silicon Zener diode manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC) in the DO-41 axial leaded package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 17 V with a test current of 29.4 mA and a maximum impedance of 9.0 Ω at that current. The device supports a peak forward surge current of 15 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. Electrical characteristics include a maximum leakage current of 0.5 µA at 13.0 V reverse bias, ensuring stable regulation for general-purpose applications.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized MCC distributors or direct procurement channels to mitigate counterfeit risks. Confirm specific packaging options such as tape and reel or bulk quantities align with production requirements. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and verify halogen-free status if required by adding the designated suffix. Review manufacturer terms regarding liability and life support usage restrictions before integration.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component based on its 2.0 W power dissipation capacity and 17 V nominal breakdown voltage. Consider the DO-41 package dimensions for board layout compatibility and thermal management needs. Evaluate the 9.0 Ω maximum impedance against circuit sensitivity requirements. Verify operating temperature limits suit the intended environment and confirm surge current ratings meet expected transient conditions.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the 2EZ series of 2.0 W glass-passivated silicon Zener diodes from Micro Commercial Components. The series spans voltages from 5.1 V to 75 V, all housed in the standard DO-41 axial package. The 2EZ17D5-TP specifically targets applications requiring moderate power handling and reliable voltage reference capabilities within a widely used through-hole form factor.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering 2.0 W DO-41 Zener diodes rated at 17 V. Verify matching electrical parameters including impedance, leakage current, and power derating curves. Ensure physical footprint compatibility for existing PCB layouts.
