SEMICONDUCTOR PRODUCTS Bourns Manufacturers Representatives Corporate Distributor Product Managers Americas Sales Team Asia Sales Team Europe Sales Team FAE Team March, 2012 TVS Diode Products For the past 12 months, Bourns has experienced yield issues on the CDSOD323-T03L and CDSOD323-T03LC silicon dies. As a consequence, we have suspended the promotion of, and acceptance of new orders for these devices, and directed our customers toward the alternative products listed below. Despite our best efforts, we have been unable to generate acceptable yields for these two products. Consequently, we have decided to remove these two products from our portfolio, effective immediately. Below are the suggested alternative part numbers for the CDSOD323-T03L device: Parameter Max. Working Voltage Min. Breakdown Voltage Max. Leakage Current @ Vwm Typ. Capacitance @ 0 V 1MHz Package Symbol Vwm Vbr IL Cap Obsolete PN CDSOD323-T03L 3.3 4.0 5.0 1.0 SOD323 Alternative PN CDSOD323-T03 3.3 4.0 1.0 3.0 SOD323 Alternative PN CDSOD323-T05L 5.0 6.0 5.0 1.0 SOD323 Unit V V uA pF Below are the suggested alternative part numbers for the CDSOD323-T03LC device: Parameter Max. Working Voltage Min. Breakdown Voltage Max. Leakage Current @ Vwm Typ. Capacitance @ 0 V 1MHz Package Symbol Vwm Vbr IL Cap Obsolete PN CDSOD323-T03LC 3.3 4.0 5.0 1.0 SOD323 Alternative PN CDSOD323-T03C 3.3 4.0 1.0 3.0 SOD323 Alternative PN CDSOD323-T05LC 5.0 6.0 5.0 1.0 SOD323 Unit V V uA pF Please note that none of these suggested alternative part numbers offer the exact same voltage and capacitance as the obsolete part numbers. We recommend that system designers carefully consider which alternative part number is best suited for the application.
