DZ23C62-G3-08

Overview

The Vishay DZ23C62-G3-08 is a silicon planar Zener diode in the DZ23-G series, housed in an SOT-23 surface-mount package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 62 V with a tolerance of ±5 %. The device operates at a test current of 2 mA and features a maximum reverse leakage current of 50 μA at 46.5 V. Dynamic resistance is specified at 150 Ω (at IZT1) and 450 Ω (at IZT2). Power dissipation reaches 500 mW on leads and 300 mW on an FR-4 board. Operating temperature ranges from -55 °C to +150 °C.

Feature Summary

• Silicon planar construction for reliable small-signal regulation
• ESD protection exceeding 8 kV via human body model and 800 V via machine model
• Standardized E24 grading with ±5 % voltage tolerance
• Green commercial grade material categorization

Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring stable bias points
• Overvoltage protection stages in signal conditioning paths
• Clamping applications within low-power electronic systems

Procurement Notes

Verify compliance requirements against project specifications before ordering. Confirm that the standard commercial grade meets environmental standards for the intended deployment. Ensure packaging quantities align with production needs, as units are supplied in taped reels. Cross-reference datasheet revision dates to confirm current manufacturing parameters.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 62 V reference is required in a compact SOT-23 footprint. Evaluate thermal constraints carefully, as power dissipation drops significantly above ambient temperatures. Verify that the 2 mA test current matches the operating conditions of the target circuit. Consider dynamic resistance values for high-frequency noise sensitivity.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Vishay DZ23-G series of small signal Zener diodes. The series covers a wide voltage range from 2.2 V to 75 V using standardized E24 values. All devices share the same SOT-23 physical dimensions and mounting characteristics, allowing for consistent PCB layout across different voltage requirements within the same design family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other DZ23C62 variants such as DZ23C62-GS08 or DZ23C62-V-GS18. Alternative packages like SOD-323 may require schematic modifications. Verify that replacement parts maintain the same ±5 % tolerance and thermal ratings.
