Overview
The SZMMBZ18VALT1G is a dual monolithic silicon Zener diode produced by onsemi, designed for applications requiring transient overvoltage protection capability. These devices are intended for use in voltage and ESD sensitive equipment such as computers, printers, business machines, communication systems, and medical equipment. The dual junction common anode design allows for the protection of two separate lines using only one package, making them ideal for situations where board space is limited.
