AZ23-Series
Vishay Semiconductors
Small Signal Zener Diodes, Dual
Features
• These diodes are also available in other case
styles and configurations including: the dual diode
common cathode configuration with type designa-
tion DZ23, the single diode SOT-23 case with the
type designation BZX84C, and the single diode
SOD-123 case with the type designation BZT52C.
• Dual Silicon Planar Zener Diodes, Common
Anode
• The Zener voltages are graded according to the
international E 24 standard.
• The parameters are valid for both diodes in one
case.
