1N2970B – 1N3015B and
1N3993A – 1N3998A
NOTES:
1.
2.
3.
1N3993A - 1N3998A and 1N2970B – 1N3015B series are +/- 5% tolerance. If a tighter tolerance is required, consult factory.
The electrical characteristics are measured after allowing the device to stabilize for 90 seconds with 30 C base temperature.
The Zener impedance (Z
ZT
) is derived from the 60 Hz ac voltage, which results when an ac current having an rms value equal
to 10% of the dc Zener current (I
ZT
or I
ZK
) is superimposed on I
ZT
or I
ZK
. When making Zener impedance measurements at
the I
ZK
test point, it may be necessary to insert a 60 Hz band pass filter between the diode and voltmeter to avoid errors
resulting from low level noise signals. A curve showing the variation of Zener impedance vs. Zener current for three
representative types is shown in
Figures 2 and 3.
Also see Microsemi
MicroNote 202.
Derate I
Z
linearly to 0.0 mA at +175°C, for T
C
> +55°C. These values of I
ZM
may be exceeded in the case of individual
diodes. The values shown are calculated for the worst case that is a unit of +/-5% tolerance at the high voltage end of its
tolerance range. Allowance has also been made for the rise in Zener voltage above V
ZT
, which results from Zener
impedance and the increase in junction temperature as power dissipation approaches 10 watts.
