What Is The Difference Between SOT23 And SOT323?

What Is The Difference Between SOT23 And SOT323?

SOT23 vs SOT323 Overview

SOT23 and SOT323 are both plastic and surface-mounted packages. SOT23 owns 3 terminals, 1.9mm pitch, 2.9mm x 1.33mm x 1mm body, while SOT323 boasts 3 leads, 1.3mm pitch, 2mm x 1.25mm x 0.95mm body.

Conclusion

From above, we can know that there are a few differences between SOT23 and SOT323. For instance, the pitch of SOT323 is 0.6mm small than that of SOT23, and SOT323’s dimensions of body are smaller than SOT23’s, etc. There are various similarity between them, but we should check the detailed dimensions when using them.
