ZMD5.6

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Diotec Semiconductor ZMD5.6 is a surface-mount non-planar Zener diode housed in the DO-213AA (MiniMELF) plastic package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 5.6 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%. The device supports a maximum power dissipation of 1 W and operates within a junction temperature range of -50°C to +175°C. Key electrical characteristics include a dynamic resistance of 10 Ohms at a test current of 1 mA, a reverse leakage current of 1 µA at 500 mV, and a maximum Zener current of 167 mA.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when purchasing. Suffixes such as -Q indicate AEC-Q101 compliance, while -AQ denotes AEC-Q101 qualification. Confirm that the required automotive grade matches the project specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring high power handling in a MiniMELF footprint. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the specified thermal resistance values. Verify that the required reliability level aligns with commercial or industrial standards unless an automotive-grade suffix is explicitly selected.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the ZMD1 through ZMD100 series of SMD Zener diodes manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor. The series utilizes non-planar technology and covers a broad voltage range from 1 V to 100 V. All devices share the same DO-213AA case style and are designed for surface mount assembly.
