DESCRIPTION
The popular 1N5985 thru 1N6031 series of 0.5 watt Zener Voltage Regulators provides a selection from 2.4 to 200 volts in standard 5% or 10% tolerances as well as tighter tolerances identified by different suffix letters on the part number. These glass axial-leaded DO-35 Zeners are also available in various military screening levels by adding a prefix identifier as described in the Features section. Microsemi also offers numerous other Zener products to meet higher and lower power applications.

FEATURES
• JEDEC registered 1N5985 to 1N6031
• Similar to operating current conditions of the BZX55 Pro Electron series of Zener products in Europe
• Internal bonds optionally available with “-1” suffix
• Options for screening in accordance with MIL-PRF-19500 for JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, and JANS are available by adding MQ, MX, MV, or MSP prefixes respectively to part numbers with “-1” suffix.
• Surface mount equivalents available as MLL5985 to MLL6031 in the DO-213AA MELF style package including “-1” suffix options (consult factory for others)
• DO-7 glass body axial-leaded Zener equivalents are also available

APPLICATIONS / BENEFITS
