Z3SMC62

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Z3SMC62 is a surface-mount Zener diode manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor, housed in the SMC (DO-214AB) package. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 62 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, ranging from 58 V to 66 V. The device supports a maximum power dissipation of 3 W at 50°C and operates within a junction temperature range of -50°C to +150°C. Key electrical characteristics include a dynamic resistance of 25 Ohms, a test current of 10 mA, and a maximum reverse leakage current of 1 µA at 75% of the nominal voltage.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• High power dissipation capability of 3 W for robust voltage regulation
• Standardized Zener voltage tolerance aligned with international E24 series standards
• Compliant with RoHS directives and REACH regulations

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage stabilization circuits
• Voltage regulator designs
• Overvoltage protection applications

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when purchasing. Standard versions are commercial/industrial grade. Suffixes such as -Q or -AQ indicate AEC-Q101 compliance or qualification, which alters automotive suitability. Confirm mechanical data and soldering conditions match assembly requirements before integration.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring 3 W power handling in an SMC package. Ensure the circuit design accommodates the 25 Ohm dynamic resistance and 10 mA test current. Verify thermal management capabilities for the specified 33 K/W thermal resistance. Consider AEC-Q101 variants if automotive reliability standards are required.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Z3SMC series of SMD Zener diodes produced by Diotec Semiconductor. The series covers a wide voltage range from 6.8 V to 200 V, all sharing the same DO-214AB footprint and 3 W power rating. The Z3SMC62 specifically targets mid-range voltage regulation needs within this standardized product family.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other manufacturers offering Zener diodes in the DO-214AB package with 3 W power ratings and 62 V nominal voltage. Verify that dynamic resistance, leakage current, and thermal resistance parameters meet or exceed the original specifications.
