Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substituted parts are selected strictly based on matched electrical and mechanical parameters: Zener voltage, power rating, tolerance, maximum impedance, reverse leakage current, forward voltage, operating temperature, mounting type, package/case type, RoHS status, Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL), REACH status, ECCN, and HTSUS code. Substitution is valid only when all specified criteria are met, ensuring functional equivalence and mechanical compatibility for the intended application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The main part TZM5233C-GS08 is classified as obsolete; TZM5233B-GS08 remains active and meets the specified compliance and certifications, including ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected status, ECCN EAR99, and MSL 1 (Unlimited). All mechanical and electrical attributes are matched except for tolerance. Selection is based strictly on the provided compliance parameters and product status as required for direct part replacement within the specified category.
