MMBZ10VALT116 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MMBZ10VALT116 is a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Rohm Semiconductor, designed for general-purpose overvoltage protection in surface-mount applications. This dual-channel Zener diode operates with a 6.5V reverse standoff voltage and provides 14.2V clamping at peak pulse current, making it suitable for protecting sensitive electronic circuits from transient voltage events. The part is currently in active production status with 65,200 units available in inventory.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when they maintain identical or compatible electrical performance characteristics while meeting the same mechanical and packaging requirements for direct board-level replacement.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MMBZ10VALT116 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Voltage - Reverse Standoff: 6.5V (Max)
• Voltage - Breakdown (Min): 9.5V
• Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp: 14.2V
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): 1.7A
• Power - Peak Pulse: 24W
• Package / Case: TO-236-3, SC-59, SOT-23-3
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Unidirectional Channels: 2
• Type: Zener
• Manufacturer: Rohm Semiconductor

The MMBZ10VALYT116 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical performance specifications and compatible packaging. The primary difference is the packaging format (Tape & Reel versus bulk), which does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility for board-level integration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the MMBZ10VALT116 and MMBZ10VALYT116 are active production components manufactured by Rohm Semiconductor with full ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain and procurement requirements rather than electrical or mechanical performance differences.

The MMBZ10VALT116 is recommended for applications requiring bulk packaging formats, while the MMBZ10VALYT116 is suitable for automated assembly processes utilizing Tape & Reel packaging. Both parts maintain identical electrical characteristics and board-level compatibility, ensuring interchangeable performance in circuit protection applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MMBZ10VALYT116 be used as a direct replacement for MMBZ10VALT116?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. The MMBZ10VALYT116 differs only in packaging format (Tape & Reel), which does not affect circuit performance or PCB mounting compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between these parts?

A: Packaging format affects supply chain logistics and assembly automation compatibility. Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is optimized for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly, while bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume production. Electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: The MMBZ10VALT116 does not specify an operating temperature range in the provided data. The MMBZ10VALYT116 specifies a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of 150°C. For applications requiring confirmed operating temperature specifications, consult the manufacturer's detailed datasheet.

Q: Do these parts have identical capacitance characteristics?

A: The MMBZ10VALT116 specifies 105pF capacitance at 1MHz. The MMBZ10VALYT116 does not provide capacitance data in the available specifications. For applications where capacitance is a critical parameter, verify the substitute part's datasheet.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the MMBZ10VALT116 and MMBZ10VALYT116 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for commercial and industrial applications.
