DESCRIPTION
APPEARANCE
DO-7
The popular 1N957B thru 1N992B series of 0.5 watt Zener voltage regulators
provides a selection from 6.8 to 200 volts in standard 5% or 10% tolerances
as well as tighter tolerances identified by different suffix letters on the part
number. The somewhat larger DO-7 packaging option offers a “straight-
through” soldered internal connection with a larger active die element than
otherwise provided in the smaller DO-35 package when needed. Microsemi
also offers numerous other Zener products to meet higher and lower power
applications.
(DO-204AA)
