AZ23C14_R1_00001

Overview

The Panjit AZ23C14_R1_00001 is a dual surface mount Zener diode featuring a common anode configuration within an SOT-23 package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 14 V with a maximum impedance of 25 Ohms at a test current of 5 mA. The device supports a power dissipation rating of 300 mW and operates across a temperature range from -55 °C to +150 °C. Maximum reverse leakage current is specified at 100 nA when tested at 10.5 V.

Feature Summary

• Dual Zener diodes integrated in a single common anode configuration for space-efficient circuit design.
• Utilizes a planar die construction suitable for automated insertion processes.
• Compliant with EU RoHS directives and utilizes halogen-free green molding compound.

Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring dual polarity or split-rail supplies.
• Clamping applications for transient voltage suppression in low-power electronics.
• Level shifting interfaces between digital logic components.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix R1_00001 against official documentation to confirm packaging details, as ordering codes may indicate variations in reel size or tape specifications. Ensure compatibility with standard SMT assembly equipment by confirming pad layout dimensions match the SOT-23 footprint. Cross-reference the marking code DK on the component body to validate authenticity during incoming inspection.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual Zener solution with a shared anode terminal is required to minimize board space. The 300 mW power rating suits general-purpose signal conditioning rather than high-power regulation. Verify that the 25 Ohm impedance meets the noise and stability requirements of the target application compared to lower impedance alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AZ23C series of dual surface mount Zener diodes manufactured by Panjit International Inc. The series covers nominal voltages ranging from 2.4 V to 51 V. The AZ23C14 variant specifically targets applications needing a 14 V breakdown characteristic within a compact plastic molded case.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Panjit parts from the same series such as AZ23C12 or AZ23C18 if voltage tolerance allows. For different configurations, the DZ series offers common cathode options. Verify pinout compatibility before substituting with non-Panjit equivalents.
