(Pack of 5) 12V 1/2W Zener Diode

(Pack of 5) 12V 1/2W Zener Diode 

The 12V 1/2W Zener Diode is a compact voltage-regulation component designed to maintain a stable 12-volt reference when reverse-biased. With a 0.5W (½ Watt) power dissipation rating, this diode is ideal for low- to medium-power circuits such as voltage references, signal conditioning, and over-voltage protection. Its DO-35 axial package makes it suitable for breadboards, PCBs, and general electronic applications.
