DZ23C18-7-F

Diodes Incorporated · Zener Diodes · SOT-23

DZ23C18-7-F from Diodes Incorporated, 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 A1 passive Anode of the first Zener diode (DZ23C18 VZ 16.8 to 19.1 V at IZT = 5.0 mA), with the cathode common to pin 3.
2 A2 passive Anode of the second Zener diode (DZ23C18 VZ 16.8 to 19.1 V at IZT = 5.0 mA), with the cathode common to pin 3.
3 K passive Common cathode of both Zener diodes, shown at the top of the device schematic (300 mW total power dissipation).

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: DZ23C18-7-F
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23
  • 3D model: SOT-23, generated from the KiCad footprint (body from the F.Fab outline, terminals on the pads, 1.025 mm tall, datasheet A, nominal). Neither the vendor nor KiCad ships a 3D model for this package, so the dimensions come from the datasheet drawing where it was read and are defaults otherwise (see provenance.model_3d_generated), not the manufacturer's CAD (STEP)
  • 3D model files: dz23c18-7-f-etched.step / dz23c18-7-f-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); dz23c18-7-f.step / dz23c18-7-f.glb are the bare package body.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: Diodes Incorporated datasheet (7 pp, sha256 63117123f54d9b7c, retrieved 2026-11-12, tier: manufacturer)
  • Extractor: parts-factory 2.0.0 / extract_pins 0.3, primary claude-sonnet-5-5 (text+vision), consensus claude-opus-5-5 (agreed), guards: pin_guards 0.1: passed. Pins are checked against the footprint pad set and their cited datasheet pages before publish.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
