ZMY6.8G

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The ZMY6.8G is a surface-mount planar Zener diode manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor, housed in a DO-213AB (Glass MELF) package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 6.8 V with a tolerance range of 6.4 V to 7.2 V at a test current of 100 mA. The device features a maximum dynamic resistance of 1 Ohm and a low reverse leakage current of 500 nA at 1 μA reverse voltage. Rated for a power dissipation of 1.0 W at 25°C ambient temperature, it operates within a junction temperature range of -50°C to +175°C.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and RoHS compliance status before procurement. Confirm that the component meets commercial or industrial grade reliability requirements. Ensure the design accounts for the specified thermal resistance values when mounted on PCBs with standard copper pads. Check for any REACH or conflict mineral declarations if required by your supply chain standards.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring stable voltage regulation with high power handling in a compact glass MELF package. Consider the sharp breakdown characteristics for precise clipping applications. Evaluate the thermal management strategy based on the 1.0 W power rating and operating temperature limits. Verify compatibility with SMD assembly processes given the DO-213AB form factor.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the ZMY series of SMD Zener diodes from Diotec Semiconductor. The series covers a wide voltage range from 1 V to 200 V. The ZMY...G variants specifically utilize a glass MELF case construction, distinguishing them from plastic-cased counterparts.
