PDZ16B-QF Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The Nexperia PDZ16B-QF is a Zener diode in the Diodes, Zener category, designed for surface mount applications with a nominal Zener voltage of 16 V, a maximum power dissipation of 400 mW, and a tolerance of ±2%. It features low reverse leakage and a maximum operating temperature of 150°C (TJ), supplied in an SOD-323 (SC-76) package. The device is automotive grade with AEC-Q101 qualification and is ROHS3 compliant. The product is active and in stock. Identifying exact equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to ensure supply chain resilience or respond to packaging preferences, while maintaining form, fit, and functional compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute and equivalent parts are determined strictly by matching the following key parameters: Zener voltage (16 V), tolerance (±2%), maximum power dissipation (400 mW), impedance (20 Ohms), reverse leakage current (50 nA @ 12 V), forward voltage (1.1 V @ 100 mA), maximum operating temperature (150°C), automotive grade, AEC-Q101 qualification, surface mount configuration, SOD-323 (SC-76) package, compliance with ROHS3, MSL 1 (Unlimited), and REACH unaffected status. Only parts conforming to all listed electrical and mechanical parameters are included as substitutes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All presented parts, including PDZ16B-QF, PDZ16B,115, and PDZ16B,135, are active products with ROHS3 compliance, unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), REACH unaffected status, and AEC-Q101 automotive qualification. Each part meets the same electrical and mechanical criteria and is suitable for applications requiring regulatory and automotive standard compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What criteria are critical when selecting substitute Zener diodes in this product group?
A1: Substitutes must match Zener voltage, tolerance, maximum power dissipation, impedance, allowable reverse leakage current, forward voltage specification, package type, mounting style, grade, qualification, and compliance status.

Q2: Are there any differences in electrical or package characteristics between the PDZ16B-QF, PDZ16B,115, and PDZ16B,135?
A2: All specified parts share the same electrical parameters and package outline (SOD-323/SC-76).

Q3: What is the importance of matching qualification and grade?
A3: Matching qualification (AEC-Q101) and automotive grade ensures compatibility with applications requiring automotive reliability standards.

Q4: Does packaging type affect substitution?
A4: Packaging (Tape & Reel, Cut Tape, Digi-Reel®) does not alter electrical or mechanical compatibility if the package outline remains identical.

Q5: Is compliance with ROHS and REACH necessary for substitution?
A5: Substitutes must match the main part's compliance status to satisfy regulatory and environmental requirements, especially in automotive or export-sensitive applications.
