PLZ9V1C-G3/H

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The PLZ9V1C-G3/H is a silicon planar Zener diode from Vishay's PLZ series, housed in the ultra-small MicroSMF (DO-219AC) package. It permits 500 mW power dissipation at 85 °C and features a nominal Zener voltage range of 8.83 V to 9.30 V. The device operates with a test current of 20 mA and exhibits low leakage current with excellent stability. It supports high-temperature soldering up to 260 °C for 10 seconds and is compatible with wave and reflow soldering processes per JEDEC standards.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code suffix to confirm compliance requirements. The -G3 suffix indicates RoHS-compliant, green, industrial grade material categorization. Ensure the procurement specification matches the required package type and electrical tolerances defined in the official datasheet to avoid substitution errors.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when space-constrained designs require a Zener diode with low profile dimensions. The MicroSMF package offers a small footprint suitable for automated assembly. Consider the thermal resistance and power derating curves if operating near maximum ambient temperatures or in confined PCB layouts.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the PLZ Series of Zener diodes manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. The series covers a wide voltage range from 2.0 V to 39 V in the same MicroSMF package family, allowing for standardized inventory management across different voltage reference requirements in consumer and industrial electronics.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the PLZ series include PLZ9V1A-HG3/H and PLZ9V1B-HG3/H, which share the same package and general characteristics but differ in Zener voltage tolerance bands. Verify that the alternative part number meets the specific voltage range requirements of the original design.
