Pinout

Pin	Name	Type	Function
1	A	passive	Anode of the zener diode, the lower-left lead in the top-view device schematic.
2	NC	unconnected	No internal connection; the lower-right lead is not connected to the diode in the device schematic.
3	K	passive	Cathode of the zener diode, the single top lead in the device schematic; the DDZX15 has VZ of 14.80 to 15.57 V at IZT = 10 mA.
