BZX79-C36,133

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The BZX79-C36,133 is a single Zener diode manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc., designed for low-power voltage regulation applications. It features a nominal Zener voltage of 36 V with a tolerance of ±5%. The device is housed in an ALF2 (DO-204AH/DO-35) axial leaded glass package, suitable for through-hole mounting. Key electrical specifications include a maximum power dissipation of 400 mW and a maximum Zener impedance of 95 Ohms. The component operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +200°C junction temperature.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation with a nominal working voltage of 36 V
• Utilizes hermetically sealed leaded glass construction for durability
• Offers ±5% tolerance for normalized E24 voltage series compatibility

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Low voltage stabilizers
• Voltage reference circuits

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '133' corresponds to the required tape-and-reel packaging configuration when ordering. Confirm that the ALF2 package dimensions align with the target PCB footprint. Ensure the 400 mW power rating is sufficient for the intended operating conditions to prevent thermal overstress during continuous operation.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 36 V reference point is required in through-hole designs. The ±5% tolerance makes it suitable for general-purpose regulation where tight precision is not critical. Consider the DO-35 form factor for standard prototyping or legacy board replacements requiring axial leads.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the BZX79 series of low-power voltage regulator diodes from Nexperia. The series offers various nominal voltages ranging from 2.4 V to 75 V. The 'C' designation indicates the approximate ±5% tolerance variant, distinguishing it from the tighter ±2% 'B' series variants within the same package family.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering DO-35 packaged Zener diodes rated at 36 V with ±5% tolerance and similar power dissipation capabilities.
