Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official Panasonic documentation to confirm the exact voltage tolerance and marking symbol suffix. Ensure that the Mini3-G1 footprint matches the target PCB layout requirements. Confirm compliance with RoHS standards if required by the end application specifications before finalizing procurement decisions.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact surface-mount Zener diode is required for low-power voltage reference or clamping tasks. Consider the 200mW power dissipation limit and thermal impedance characteristics relative to the printed circuit board copper area. Evaluate the temperature coefficient and operating resistance against the stability requirements of the target circuit design.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the MAZ3000 series of silicon planar Zener diodes manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components. The series offers a wide range of Zener voltages from 2.0V to 36V in a standardized Mini3-G1 package. This specific model represents the upper voltage limit of the standard series, providing a stable reference point for various general-purpose electronic designs.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other MAZ3360 variants such as MAZ33600L or MAZ33600H if different tolerance levels are acceptable. Verify pinout compatibility with the SC-59/Mini3-G1 package form factor to ensure direct replacement feasibility without PCB redesign.
