Notes: 1) Zener Impedance is measured to ensure a sharp knee characteristic on the breakdown curve. Derived from 50Hz ac voltage from ac current of 10% rms of IZT (or
IZK) superimposed on DC IZT (or IZK)
2) Temperature Coefficient test conditions:
a. IZT = 7.5mA , T1 = 25°C, T 2 = 125°C (1N5221 through to 1N5242)
b. IZT = Rated IZT, T1 = 25°C, T 2 = 125°C (1N5243 through to 1N5261)
DUT temperature stabilised with constant current for αVZ measurement @ T1,T2

MECHANICAL DATA
* The additional contact provides a connection to the lid in the application. Connecting the metal lid to a known electrical potential stops deep
dielectric discharge in space applications; see the Space Weather link www.semelab.co.uk/dlcc2.html on the Semelab web site. Package variant
to be specified at order.

SCREENING OPTIONS
Space Level (JQRS/ESA) and High Reliability options are
available in accordance with the High Reliability and
Screening Options Handbook available for download from
the from the TT electronics Semelab web site.
ESA Quality Level Products are based on the testing
procedures specified in the generic ESCC 5000 and in the
corresponding part detail specifications.
Semelabs QR216 and QR217 processing specifications
(JQRS), in conjunction with the companies ISO 9001:2000
approval present a viable alternative to the American MIL-
PRF-19500 space level processing.
QR217 (Space Level Quality Conformance) is based on the
quality conformance inspection requirements of MIL-PRF-
19500 groups A (table V), B (table VIa), C (table VII) and
also ESA / ESCC 5000 (chart F4) lot validation tests.
QR216 (Space Level Screening) is based on the screening
requirements of MIL-PRF-19500 (table IV) and also ESA
/ESCC 5000 (chart F3).
JQRS parts are processed to the device data sheet and
screened to QR216 with conformance testing to Q217
groups A and B in accordance with MIL-STD-750 methods
and procedures.
Additional conformance options are available, for example
Pre-Cap Visual Inspection, Buy-Off Visit or Data Packs.
These are chargeable and must be specified at the order
stage (See Ordering Information). Minimum order
quantities may apply.
Alternative or additional customer specific conformance or
screening requirements would be considered. Contact
Semelab sales with enquires.
MARKING DETAILS
Parts can be laser marked with approximately 7 characters
on two lines and always includes cathode identification.
Typical marking would include part or specification number,
week of seal or serial number subject to available space and
legibility.
Customer specific marking requirements can be arranged at
the time of order.
