MAZ20510AG

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Panasonic MAZ20510AG is a silicon planar Zener diode from the MAZ2000 series, designed for power supply stabilization. It features a DO-41-A1 axial leaded package with glass seal construction. The device provides a nominal Zener voltage of 5.1 V with an operating current of 40 mA. It offers high reliability and large power dissipation capabilities up to 1 W at 25°C ambient temperature.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• High reliability achieved through the combination of planar type structure and glass seal technology
• Large power dissipation capability of 1 W at 25°C ambient temperature
• Finely divided Zener voltage ranks (A and B) for precise voltage selection

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Power supply stabilization circuits
• General electronic equipment
• Office equipment
• Communications equipment
• Measuring instruments

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific A or B rank classification required for the application, as indicated by the color band marking on the component body. Confirm that the intended use falls within standard applications such as office or communications equipment, as special automotive or life-support applications require separate consultation with Panasonic sales staff prior to procurement.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a stable 5.1 V reference is needed in a through-hole axial package. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the specified operating current of 40 mA and the maximum power dissipation limits. Consider the thermal characteristics if the ambient temperature exceeds 25°C, as derating is necessary above this threshold to maintain safe junction temperatures.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Panasonic MAZ2000 Series (also referenced as MA2000 Series), which covers a wide range of Zener voltages from 5.1 V to 56.0 V. The series utilizes silicon planar technology with glass sealing to ensure robust performance in general-purpose electronic applications requiring reliable voltage regulation.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers' DO-41 packaged Zener diodes rated for 5.1 V and similar power dissipation. Verify compatibility with the specific A or B rank tolerance requirements before substitution.
