BZX85C6V8-TAP from Vishay Intertech, in a DO-204AL(DO-41). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | K | passive | Cathode, marked by the cathode identification band on the DO-41 body; the Zener diode is reverse-biased with this pin positive, with VZ of 6.4 to 7.2 V (6.8 V nom.) at IZT1 = 35 mA for the BZX85C6V8. |
| 2 | A | passive | Anode, the unmarked lead of the DO-41 axial package; the Ptot rating of 1300 mW is valid with leads at 4 mm from the case kept at ambient temperature. |
