## CAD (KiCad official)

- Symbol: `ESD5Z12T1G`
- Footprint: `Diode_SMD:D_SOD-523`
- 3D model: SOD-523 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
- 3D model files: `esd5z12t1g-etched.step` / `esd5z12t1g-etched.glb` carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable `Adom.LaserEtch` group (Fusion-ready); `esd5z12t1g.step` / `esd5z12t1g.glb` are the bare package body.

## Provenance

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

- **Datasheet:** [TECH PUBLIC datasheet](docs/esd5z12t1g-datasheet.pdf) (4 pp, sha256 `6551d03e46b24216`, retrieved 2026-10-21, tier: lcsc)
- **Extractor:** parts-factory `2.0.0` / `extract_pins`, primary `cathode-band convention` (convention), consensus `off` (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).
