DZ23C15_R1_00001

Overview

The DZ23C15_R1_00001 is a dual surface mount Zener diode from the DZ23C2V4 series manufactured by Panjit International Inc. It features a common cathode configuration within an SOT-23 molded plastic case. The nominal Zener voltage is 15 V with a tolerance range of 14.25 V to 15.75 V. Electrical characteristics include a maximum Zener impedance (ZZT) of 30 Ω at a test current of 5.0 mA, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.1 μA at 11.0 V. The device supports a power dissipation rating of 300 mW and operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +150°C.

Feature Summary

• Dual Zener diodes integrated in a single common cathode package for space-efficient circuit design.
• Manufactured using lead-free processes compliant with EU RoHS 2.0 standards.
• Utilizes green molding compound adhering to IEC 61249 environmental specifications.

Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring dual independent regulation channels.
• Clamping applications for transient voltage suppression in low-power electronics.
• Biasing networks in portable devices utilizing automated surface-mount assembly.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official distributor catalogs to confirm packaging orientation and reel dimensions. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS status and marking codes prior to procurement. Ensure that the selected variant matches the required thermal resistance and power dissipation limits for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact dual Zener solution is required for voltage regulation or clamping. The SOT-23 package is suitable for high-density PCB layouts. Verify that the 300 mW power dissipation rating meets the thermal requirements of the target system. Consider the 30 Ω impedance value for dynamic regulation performance in the specific operating current range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DZ23C2V4 series, which encompasses dual Zener diodes with nominal voltages ranging from 2.4 V to 51 V. All members of this series share the same physical footprint, mechanical data, and general electrical testing conditions, differing primarily in their specific Zener voltage ratings and associated impedance values.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the SOT-23-3 package, 15 V nominal voltage, and common cathode configuration. Verify that substitute components meet or exceed the 300 mW power dissipation and -65°C to +150°C operating temperature range specifications.
