Package
Base P/N-E3
- RoHS compliant, commercial grade
Base P/NHE3 - RoHS compliant, AEC-Q101 qualified
Terminals: Matte tin plated leads, solderable per
J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102
DEVICES FOR BI-DIRECTION APPLICATIONS
E3 suffix meets JESD 201 class 1A whisker test, HE3 suffix
meets JESD 201 class 2 whisker test
For bi-directional types, use CA suffix (e.g. SA5.0CA,
SA170CA).
Electrical characteristics apply in both directions.
Polarity: For uni-directional types the color band denotes
cathode end, no marking on bi-directional types
