AZ23C16

Changjing · Zener Diodes · SOT-23

AZ23C16 from Changjing, in a SOT-23. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 K1 passive Cathode of zener diode 1 (AZ23C16: Vz 15.3-17.1V at IZT=5.0mA), in a dual common-anode configuration with 300mW package dissipation.
2 K2 passive Cathode of zener diode 2 (AZ23C16: Vz 15.3-17.1V at IZT=5.0mA), with Vz matched to diode 1 within 5%.
3 A passive Common anode of both zener diodes, shared by pins 1 and 2.
