• Guaranteed high-temperature soldering capability up to 260°C for 10 seconds.
• Manufactured using halogen-free materials compliant with IEC 61249-2-21 standards.

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• General purpose voltage regulation circuits
• Voltage reference sources for analog signal processing
• Clamping and protection stages in low-power electronics

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix 'RKG' corresponds to the specific packing configuration defined by Taiwan Semiconductor, as datasheet documentation explicitly lists 'G', 'RS', and 'RU' as standard packing codes. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS and WEEE directives match project specifications. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid traceability for the green compound variant described in the mechanical data section.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact SMD solution is required for low-power voltage clamping or referencing. The 200 mW power rating limits suitability to low-current applications compared to higher-power axial packages. The ±2% tolerance offers tighter precision than standard E24 series variants. Verify that the operating environment remains within the specified thermal limits to maintain electrical stability.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the BZX585B series, which covers a wide Zener voltage range from 2.4 V to 51 V in the same SOD-523F footprint. The series is designed for general-purpose small-signal applications requiring consistent performance across various voltage levels. All devices in the family share identical mechanical dimensions and thermal characteristics, facilitating design flexibility.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering SOD-523F Zener diodes with 6.8 V nominal voltage and ±2% tolerance. Verify that alternative parts meet the 200 mW power dissipation and 15 Ω maximum dynamic impedance specifications. Ensure the replacement package matches the SOD-523F outline dimensions for board compatibility.
