AZ23C3V0-7-G

Overview

The AZ23C3V0-7-G is a dual common anode Zener diode array manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features two independent Zener elements integrated into a single SOT-23-3 surface-mount package. The nominal Zener voltage is specified at 3.0 V with a tolerance of ±5%. The device supports a maximum power dissipation of 300 mW and operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +150°C. The test current for characterization is 5 mA, ensuring consistent voltage regulation performance across industrial applications.

Feature Summary

• Dual common anode configuration allows for efficient space-saving integration in compact circuit designs.
• High thermal stability ensures reliable operation across a wide industrial temperature range.
• Compact SOT-23-3 packaging facilitates automated surface-mount assembly processes.

Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring stable low-voltage rails.
• Transient voltage suppression in signal conditioning paths.
• Clamping applications for protecting sensitive input stages.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '-G' against the manufacturer's latest documentation to confirm RoHS compliance status and lead time requirements. Confirm availability as distribution channels may vary based on production cycles. Ensure the ordering quantity aligns with standard reel sizes to optimize procurement efficiency.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual Zener solution with a common anode is required in a minimal footprint. Compare the 3.0 V nominal voltage and 300 mW power rating against circuit requirements. Verify that the SOT-23-3 package dimensions fit the PCB layout constraints and that the operating temperature range meets environmental specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AZ23C series of dual Zener arrays from Diodes Incorporated. The series offers various voltage options within the same SOT-23-3 package form factor, allowing designers to maintain consistent board layouts while adjusting voltage levels. The 'G' suffix typically denotes Green/RoHS-compliant variants within the product line.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with AZ23C3V0-7-F or AZ23C3V0_R1_00001 for pin-compatible alternatives. Verify electrical parameters such as Zener impedance and leakage current match the original design requirements before substitution.
