MMBZ20VCL-QR

Nexperia · ESD And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · TO-236AB

MMBZ20VCL-QR from Nexperia, in a TO-236AB. 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 diode 1; measured from pin 1 to pin 3, the device is rated for IPPM 1.4 A (10/1000 µs) and ESD contact discharge up to 30 kV (IEC 61000-4-2).
2 A2 passive Anode of diode 2; measured from pin 2 to pin 3, the device is rated for IPPM 1.4 A (10/1000 µs) and ESD contact discharge up to 30 kV (IEC 61000-4-2).
3 CC passive Common cathode shared by both diodes; the soldering point for thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) is specified at this pin.
