TLZ5V6A-GS08

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The TLZ5V6A-GS08 is a small signal Zener diode from the Vishay TLZ-Series, housed in a MiniMELF (SOD-80) package. It features a nominal Zener voltage range of 5.28 V to 5.55 V at a test current of 20 mA. The device has a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW and operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C. Electrical characteristics include a maximum reverse leakage current of 1 µA at 4 V and dynamic resistances of 13 Ω at IZT1 and 500 Ω at IZT2.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix GS08 indicates the 2500-unit tape and reel packaging format on a 7-inch reel. Confirm the 'A' designation corresponds to the specified 5.28 V to 5.55 V voltage tolerance band. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 standards as defined by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a stable reference voltage near 5.4 V is required in a compact surface-mount footprint. The MiniMELF package offers thermal robustness with a peak soldering temperature of 260 °C. Consider the low leakage current and high stability features for applications sensitive to noise or requiring tight voltage regulation under varying thermal conditions.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the TLZ-Series of small signal Zener diodes manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. The series covers a wide Zener voltage range from 2.4 V to 56 V. The TLZ5V6A variant specifically targets applications needing a ~5.4 V reference point, utilizing the standard MiniMELF glass passivated package known for its reliability and low profile.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include TLZ5V6B and TLZ5V6C, which share identical electrical specifications but differ in voltage tolerance bands. Verify that any replacement maintains the MiniMELF (SOD-80) package form factor and meets the required 500 mW power dissipation rating.
