ZMY160

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The ZMY160 is a surface-mount Zener diode manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor in the DO-213AB plastic MELF case. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 160 V with a tolerance range of 153 V to 171 V at a test current of 5 mA. The device features a maximum power dissipation of 1.3 W at 50°C and operates within a junction temperature range of -50°C to +150°C. Key electrical parameters include a dynamic resistance of 110 Ω, a reverse leakage current of 1 µA at 128 V, and a maximum Zener current of 8 mA.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version (e.g., Version 2026-04-07) when sourcing components to ensure alignment with current manufacturing specifications. Confirm that the package corresponds to the plastic MELF case (DO-213AB) rather than the glass variant. Ensure compliance requirements match project standards, noting that AEC-Q101 qualified versions are not available for this series.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select the ZMY160 for applications requiring stable voltage reference or regulation near 160 V. Consider the 1.3 W power dissipation limit and the associated thermal resistance when designing heat management strategies. Verify that the operating ambient temperature remains within the specified range to maintain the rated power handling capacity without derating issues.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This component belongs to the ZMY series of SMD Zener diodes produced by Diotec Semiconductor. The series spans a wide voltage range from 1 V to 200 V, utilizing both planar and non-planar chip technologies depending on the specific voltage rating and casing material. The ZMY160 specifically utilizes the non-planar chip technology housed in a plastic MELF case.
