SODZ18A-SH

LRC · Zener Diodes · SOD-123FL

SODZ18A-SH from LRC, in a SOD-123FL. 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 K passive Cathode of the Zener diode, marked by the color band; the 18 V (Z18) device regulates at Vz=18 V at Izt=14 mA.
2 A passive Anode of the Zener diode; the device is rated 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation at TL=75°C.
