Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 1N6006B-TP zener diode is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Zener voltage rating: 18 V nominal
• Tolerance specification: ±5%
• Maximum power dissipation: 500 mW
• Maximum impedance: 42 Ohms
• Reverse leakage current: 100 nA @ 14 V
• Forward voltage: 1.5 V @ 100 mA

Mechanical Parameters:

• Mounting configuration: Through Hole
• Package designation: DO-35 axial package (DO-204AH equivalent)

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 compliance requirement
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited)

Substitute parts must satisfy all electrical parameters within the specified tolerances and maintain identical through-hole axial package configuration to ensure direct circuit board compatibility without layout modification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 1N6006B-TP is classified as obsolete. The identified substitute part 1N6006B-TP maintains complete parametric equivalence across all electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring regulatory and environmental compliance consistency.

For applications requiring the 1N6006B-TP zener diode, the substitute part provides direct functional replacement with no circuit modification required. The through-hole DO-35 axial package configuration remains unchanged, permitting direct board-level substitution. Compliance certifications and environmental ratings are maintained across the substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1N6006B-TP substitute be used in existing circuit designs without modification?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains identical electrical parameters (18 V zener voltage, 500 mW power rating, ±5% tolerance) and mechanical configuration (through-hole DO-35 axial package). Direct substitution is supported without circuit redesign or board layout changes.

Q: What is the significance of the DO-35 axial package specification?

A: The DO-35 package is a through-hole axial configuration with two leads suitable for insertion into standard PCB holes. This package type determines physical compatibility with existing board designs. Substitute parts must maintain this identical package designation to ensure mechanical fit and electrical connectivity.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the main part and substitute?

A: No. Both the main part and substitute are ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Regulatory and environmental compliance requirements are identical, supporting use in regulated applications without additional qualification.

Q: What parameters must remain constant for a valid substitution?

A: The zener voltage (18 V), power rating (500 mW), tolerance (±5%), impedance (42 Ohms maximum), reverse leakage current (100 nA @ 14 V), forward voltage (1.5 V @ 100 mA), and package type (DO-35 through-hole axial) must all remain unchanged. Deviation from any of these parameters invalidates the substitution.

Q: Is the operating temperature range a critical substitution parameter?

A: Yes. The operating temperature range of -65°C to 200°C is a critical specification. Substitute parts must support this identical temperature range to ensure reliable operation across all specified environmental conditions.
