The DS1000Z-25N is a 5-tap silicon delay line from the DS1000 series, designed to provide precise, repeatable signal delays without external timing components. It is used in timing alignment, pulse-width modulation, and clock-skew correction in digital systems — common in telecom, industrial control, and test equipment where a fixed delay chain replaces an RC network or a quartz-based delay line.
Lifecycle and compliance reality
The RoHS compliance status is marked as non-compliant, so it is not suitable for assemblies requiring lead-free solder processes — a factor to verify against your BOM's environmental requirements before specifying.
not tape-and-reel. This suits repair benches, MRO stockrooms, and low-volume prototype runs where a full reel is unnecessary. For production lines expecting reel feed, confirm handling compatibility with your pick-and-place setup.
