47 V Zener, 500 mW — DO-35 axial
The 1N6016A is a 47 V Zener diode from Microchip Technology in the standard DO-35 axial-lead package, rated for 500 mW continuous power dissipation. With a ±10% tolerance on the Zener voltage, the regulation window spans roughly 42.3 V to 51.7 V — wide enough for general-purpose clamping or shunt regulation where tight reference accuracy is not the primary requirement.
Thermal and leakage profile
Reverse leakage is specified at 100 nA maximum at 30 V reverse bias — about 64% of the nominal Zener voltage — so the diode stays well below the leakage floor in standby or bias circuits. Maximum forward voltage is 1.1 V at 200 mA forward current, a typical figure for a silicon Zener of this power class.
