Mounting:
- Ensure that the diode is mounted on a suitable heatsink if continuous power dissipation exceeds 0.5W.
- Avoid mechanical stress on the leads during soldering.
Soldering:
- Soldering temperature should not exceed 260掳C.
- Soldering time should be limited to 10 seconds.
Biasing:
- The diode should be reverse-biased to achieve the zener voltage.
- Ensure that the reverse current (I_ZM) does not exceed 100mA to prevent damage.
Operating Conditions:
- Operate within the specified temperature range to ensure reliable performance.
- Do not exceed the maximum power dissipation rating.
Storage:
- Store in a dry environment with temperatures between -65掳C and +175掳C.
Testing:
- Test the diode using a constant current source to avoid exceeding the maximum ratings.
- Measure the zener voltage at the specified test current (typically 10mA).
Handling:
- Handle with care to avoid static discharge which can damage the diode.
- Use appropriate ESD protection when handling sensitive components.
