Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix matches the required packaging configuration, as standard datasheets may not explicitly detail all tape-and-reel or bulk variations. Confirm the latest revision of the datasheet D0123 directly with the manufacturer before finalizing procurement specifications to ensure compliance with current manufacturing standards.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 36 V reference is required with low leakage characteristics. Ensure the application environment remains within the specified -55°C to +150°C operating temperature range. Consider the 500 mW power dissipation limit and derating requirements above 25°C during thermal design to maintain reliability under load conditions.
