ZMY10-GS08

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The ZMY10-GS08 is a single silicon planar power Zener diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It features a nominal Zener voltage of 10 V with a tolerance of ±6% and a maximum power dissipation of 1 W at ambient temperature. The device utilizes a DO-213AB (DO-41) axial leaded package, suitable for surface mount or through-hole applications depending on board design. Key electrical parameters include a maximum dynamic impedance of 4 Ω and a test current of 50 mA. It operates within a junction temperature range up to 175 °C and meets RoHS compliance standards.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• High power handling capability with 1 W dissipation rating for robust voltage regulation
• Precision voltage grading according to international E24 standard for consistent performance
• Silicon planar technology ensures stable operation under high thermal stress conditions

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage stabilization in power supply circuits
• Clipping and protection circuits for signal lines
• Reference voltage generation in analog measurement systems

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix GS08 indicates RoHS compliance and halogen-free status as per Vishay's general semiconductor naming conventions. Confirm package type matches DO-213AB specifications. Check for AEC-Q101 automotive qualification if required for your application, as this may vary by production batch. Ensure storage conditions adhere to moisture sensitivity level guidelines for leaded components.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select the ZMY10-GS08 when a 10 V reference with higher power handling than SMD alternatives is needed. Compare against the TZMC10 series for smaller footprint requirements. Consider the 6% tolerance if tighter precision is not critical. Evaluate thermal management needs given the 1 W rating and axial package thermal characteristics.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to Vishay's ZMY series of silicon planar power Zener diodes. The series offers a wide range of voltage values graded to E24 standards. These diodes are designed for applications requiring reliable voltage regulation and protection in industrial and consumer electronics environments.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other manufacturers' 10 V 1 W Zener diodes in DO-41 packages such as the BZX55C10 or equivalent. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values before substitution.
