The recommended footprint for the BZW03C36-TAP is a standard SOD-123 package with a pad size of 1.5 mm x 1.5 mm and a thermal pad size of 2.5 mm x 2.5 mm.
To ensure reliable soldering, use a soldering iron with a temperature of 250°C to 260°C, and apply a solder flux to the pads. Also, make sure to follow the recommended soldering profile and avoid overheating the component.
The maximum allowed voltage derating for the BZW03C36-TAP is 10% of the maximum rated voltage, which is 36 V. Therefore, the maximum allowed voltage derating is 3.6 V.
The BZW03C36-TAP is a general-purpose TVS diode and is not optimized for high-frequency applications. However, it can be used in applications up to 1 MHz. For higher frequencies, a specialized TVS diode with a lower capacitance should be used.
To select the correct TVS diode, consider the following factors: maximum voltage, peak pulse current, and response time. Choose a TVS diode with a voltage rating that is higher than the maximum voltage in your application, and a peak pulse current rating that is higher than the expected surge current.
