FEATURES
High reliability controlled devices with fabrication and assembly lot traceability
100 % surge tested devices
Optional upscreening available by replacing the M prefix with MA, MX or MXL prefixes.
These prefixes specify various screening and conformance inspection options based on
MIL-PRF-19500. Refer to MicroNote 129 for more details on the screening options.
Axial-lead equivalent packages for thru-hole mounting available as 1.5KE6.8A to
1.5KE200CA or 1N6267 thru 1N6303A and 1N5908 (consult factory for other surface mount
options).
Moisture classification is Level 1 with no dry pack required per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B
RoHS compliant devices available by adding an “e3” suffix
3σ lot norm screening performed on Standby Current I
D
