AZ23C6V2-E3-08

Overview

The AZ23C6V2-E3-08 is a dual common anode silicon planar Zener diode array manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors. It features a nominal Zener voltage of 6.2 V with a ±5% tolerance, tested at a current of 5 mA. The device operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C and utilizes an SOT-23 surface-mount package. Electrical characteristics include a maximum reverse leakage current of 3 μA at 4 V and a dynamic resistance of 10 Ω at the test current.

Feature Summary

• Dual common anode configuration for space-efficient circuit design
• Silicon planar technology ensuring robust performance
• ESD protection capability exceeding 8 kV via human body model

Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring dual stable potentials
• Clamping and protection stages in signal processing paths

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distribution channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and ensure storage conditions adhere to moisture sensitivity level 1 requirements. Validate that the ordering code matches specific application voltage and tolerance needs before finalizing acquisition.

Selection Notes

Select this variant when a dual Zener solution with a common anode is required. Ensure the 6.2 V nominal voltage aligns with circuit specifications. Consider the SOT-23 package dimensions for PCB layout constraints and verify thermal management capabilities against expected power dissipation levels.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AZ23 series of small signal Zener diodes. The series offers various voltage grades according to the E24 standard. The 'E3' suffix indicates RoHS compliance, while '08' specifies the 3000-unit reel packaging format on an 8 mm tape.

Replacement Considerations
