Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ZRT025GC1TC is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Reference Type: Shunt
• Output Voltage: 2.5V fixed
• Output Current: 75 mA
• Voltage Tolerance: ±1%
• Temperature Coefficient: 50ppm/°C
• Noise Specification: 50µVp-p (0.1Hz to 10Hz)
• Cathode Current: 150 µA
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Package: SOT-223-3
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The ZRT025GC1TA meets all these parameters and is classified as a parametric equivalent. Differences exist only in product status and packaging format, not in electrical or mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ZRT025GC1TA is a direct parametric equivalent to the ZRT025GC1TC. Both parts are manufactured by Diodes Incorporated and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: the ZRT025GC1TC is obsolete, while the ZRT025GC1TA is designated Last Time Buy, indicating continued but limited availability.

Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. The ZRT025GC1TA is available in Cut Tape (CT) packaging format with significantly higher inventory levels (38,333 pcs vs. 840 pcs), providing better supply chain accessibility for production requirements.
