DZ23C8V2HE3-TP

Overview

The DZ23C8V2HE3-TP is a dual Zener diode in a common cathode configuration, manufactured by Micro Commercial Components (MCC). It features a nominal Zener voltage of 8.2 V with a tolerance range of 7.79 V to 8.61 V at a test current of 5.0 mA. The device has a maximum power dissipation of 300 mW and a thermal resistance of 417°C/W from junction to ambient. Maximum Zener impedance is 7 Ohms at the test current, rising to 80 Ohms at a knee current of 1.00 mA. The maximum reverse leakage current is 0.1 µA at 6.0 V. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and is housed in an SOT-23 package.

Procurement Notes

Verify authenticity through authorized MCC distributors or direct purchase to avoid counterfeit components. Confirm RoHS compliance and AEC-Q101 qualification status during sourcing. Ensure storage conditions adhere to moisture sensitivity level 1 requirements. Check for UL 94 V-0 flammability rating verification if required by specific application standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring matched dual Zener voltages in a compact surface-mount package. The common cathode configuration simplifies circuit design for dual-channel protection. Verify that the 300 mW power rating and 8.2 V breakdown voltage align with the target circuit's operational parameters and thermal constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DZ23C series of 300 mW Zener diodes offered by Micro Commercial Components. The series covers a voltage range from 2.4 V to 47 V. The HE3 suffix indicates Halogen-free construction, while the TP suffix denotes Tape and Reel packaging. These devices are designed for automated insertion and high-reliability environments.
