Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PDZ6.2BF are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The substitution criteria are defined by the following key parameters:

• Nominal Zener Voltage (Vz): 6.33 V
• Voltage Tolerance: ±2%
• Maximum Power Dissipation: 400 mW
• Maximum Impedance (Zzt): 80 Ohms
• Reverse Leakage Current @ Vr: 500 nA @ 3 V
• Forward Voltage (Vf) (Max) @ If: 900 mV @ 10 mA
• Operating Temperature Range: 150°C (TJ)
• Package Configuration: SOD-323 (SC-76)
• Mounting Technology: Surface Mount
• Compliance Standards: RoHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

Parts meeting all these specifications are classified as parametric equivalents and may be substituted in circuit designs without modification to board layout, schematic, or thermal management considerations.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PDZ6.2BF and PDZ6.2BZ are parametric equivalents manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. Both components are active products with identical electrical specifications, mechanical packaging, and regulatory compliance certifications. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than technical performance differences.

Both parts are RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards for electronic component manufacturing. The MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating indicates both components are suitable for standard surface mount assembly processes without special moisture control requirements.

The SOD-323 package configuration and surface mount technology are identical across both parts, ensuring compatibility with existing printed circuit board designs, pick-and-place equipment, and reflow soldering processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PDZ6.2BZ be used as a direct replacement for PDZ6.2BF?

A: Yes. The PDZ6.2BZ is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, package configuration, and compliance certifications. No circuit modifications, board layout changes, or thermal management adjustments are required.

Q: Are there any differences in the SOD-323 package between these parts?

A: No. Both PDZ6.2BF and PDZ6.2BZ use the SC-76, SOD-323 package configuration. Pin assignments, footprint dimensions, and mounting requirements are identical.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both PDZ6.2BF and PDZ6.2BZ are RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. They meet identical environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.

Q: What is the significance of the ±2% tolerance specification?

A: The ±2% tolerance indicates the maximum deviation of the nominal zener voltage (6.33 V) from the specified value. Both parts maintain this tolerance, ensuring consistent voltage regulation performance across production batches.

Q: Are there any thermal or power dissipation differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts have identical maximum power dissipation (400 mW) and operating temperature ratings (150°C TJ). Thermal management and circuit design considerations are equivalent.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for manufacturing?

A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited shelf life and no special moisture control requirements during storage or assembly. Both parts can be handled using standard manufacturing processes without baking or desiccant packaging.
