DZ23C6V2-HE3-08

Overview

The DZ23C6V2-HE3-08 is a silicon planar Zener diode from the Vishay DZ23 series, housed in an SOT-23 package. It features a nominal Zener voltage of 6.2 V with a standard tolerance of ±5 %. The device operates at a test current (IZT1) of 5 mA and exhibits a dynamic resistance (ZZ) of 10 Ω maximum at this current. Reverse leakage current is specified at 0.1 μA maximum when VR is 1 V. The component supports a pulse current rating and offers ESD protection exceeding 8 kV via human body model and 800 V via machine model, consistent with AEC-Q101 qualification.

Feature Summary

• Silicon planar construction for reliable voltage regulation
• AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive electronics applications
• High ESD capability ensuring robustness against electrostatic discharge events
• RoHS-compliant material composition

Applications

• Voltage reference circuits in automotive systems
• Clamping and protection stages for sensitive input lines
• Biasing networks requiring stable 6.2 V potential

Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering code matches the specific suffix requirements for tape-and-reel packaging and AEC-Q101 qualification status. Confirm that the HE3_A suffix indicates the correct automotive-grade variant. Ensure compatibility with the specified SOT-23 footprint during procurement planning to avoid assembly discrepancies.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6.2 V Zener voltage with ±5 % tolerance is required in a compact SOT-23 form factor. Consider the 5 mA test current and 10 Ω dynamic resistance for precision applications. Verify thermal management needs against the 500 mW power dissipation limit at ambient conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DZ23 series of small signal Zener diodes manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. The series covers a wide voltage range from 2.2 V to 75 V, graded according to the international E24 standard. The DZ23C6V2-HE3-08 specifically denotes the 6.2 V variant with HE3_A automotive qualification and 08 reel packaging.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include other DZ23 series variants with different voltage ratings but identical package and qualification standards. Cross-brand replacements must match the SOT-23 package, 6.2 V nominal voltage, ±5 % tolerance, and AEC-Q101 qualification to ensure functional equivalence.
