COMPENSATED ZENER REFERENCE DIODES
DESCRIPTION
The 1N4896(A) through 1N4915(A) series provides a selection of temperature compensated
12.8 V (nominal) Zener diodes. The voltage tolerace is +/- 5% and the "A" version of the parts
o
in this series have an expanded low temperature range down to -55 C. Microsemi also offers
numerous other Zener reference diode products for a variety of other voltages.

Nominal voltage for all types is 12.8 Volts +/-5%.
Referred to as the “box” measurement method, the
∆V
Z
is the maximum voltage variance that will occur as the voltage is
scanned thru all temperatures between the temperature range limits.
o
The effective temperature coefficients are tabulated in %/ C primarily for information only since temperature compensated
diodes inherently have a non-linear voltage-temperature characteristic.
The dynamic Zener impedance Z
ZT
is derived from the resulting AC voltage developed when a 60 cps, rms AC current equal
to 10% of the DC Zener current I
ZT
is superimposed on I
ZT
.
Voltage measurements to be performed 15 seconds after application of DC current.
Consult factory for JANTX, JANTXV or JANS equivalent SCDs.
