Product details
Overview
BZB84-B22,215 from Nexperia is a dual common-anode Zener diode in SOT23 package, designed for precision voltage regulation and transient suppression in compact DC power rails. It delivers nominal 22 V Zener voltage (21.6–22.4 V), ±2 % tolerance, 250 Ω differential resistance at 5 mA, and supports 1.25 A non-repetitive peak reverse current under 100 µs surge conditions - used in automotive ECU power supply clamping and industrial sensor biasing.
For engineers reviewing the BZB84-B22,215 datasheet, BZB84-B22,215 pinout, BZB84-B22,215 application, or BZB84-B22,215 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-Zener common-anode topology, AEC-Q101 qualification, 300 mW total power dissipation, thermal resistance of 417 K/W (junction-to-ambient), and SOT23 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This dual Zener diode integrates two independent 22 V Zener elements sharing a common anode (Pin 3), enabling bidirectional voltage clamping or dual-rail reference generation from a single package. Its design supports symmetric reverse breakdown behavior with matched temperature coefficients (±15.4 to ±20.0 mV/K) and low capacitance (60 pF at 1 MHz).
The device operates across −55 °C to +150 °C ambient range, with junction temperature limited to 150 °C. It complies with IEC 60134 absolute maximum ratings and uses FR4 PCB mounting per standard footprint - critical for automotive-grade reliability in engine control and body electronics modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 21.6 V to 22.4 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines stable regulation point for 22 V rail protection |
| Tolerance | ±2 % - ensures tight voltage accuracy without post-production trimming |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 250 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - determines regulation stiffness under load variation |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 300 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - sets continuous DC power handling limit on standard PCB |
| Non-repetitive Peak Reverse Current (IZSM) | 1.25 A at tp = 100 µs - enables transient overvoltage absorption in CAN/LIN bus interfaces |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 417 K/W - dictates junction temperature rise under steady-state operation on FR4 board |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 0.05 µA max at VR = 17.6 V - ensures minimal leakage in high-impedance bias networks |
Pinout & Package
SOT23 (TO-236AB) plastic surface-mount package: 3-pin, small outline, lead pitch 0.95 mm, body size 2.9 × 1.3 × 1.0 mm - optimized for automated placement and reflow soldering in space-constrained designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (Diode 1) | Provides reverse-biased Zener path for first 22 V element; connects to protected node or reference rail |
| 2 | Cathode (Diode 2) | Independent cathode for second 22 V Zener; enables dual-clamp or split-rail configuration |
| 3 | Common Anode | Shared anode terminal - simplifies PCB routing and enables bidirectional clamping with single ground tie |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual common-anode topology | Reduces component count and board area vs. discrete dual-Zener solutions in voltage clamp circuits |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive applications including powertrain and chassis ECUs requiring extended temperature and life-cycle reliability |
| ±2 % Zener voltage tolerance | Eliminates need for external calibration in precision 22 V reference or overvoltage detection circuits |
| Low 60 pF diode capacitance | Maintains signal integrity in high-frequency analog monitoring paths adjacent to regulated supplies |
| 150 °C maximum junction temperature | Supports operation in under-hood environments without derating in thermally constrained enclosures |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZB84-C22,215 | ±5 % Zener tolerance (vs. ±2 %); identical 22 V nominal, same SOT23 package and pinout | Lower cost for non-critical biasing where 22 V ±1.1 V is acceptable | Select when tighter voltage accuracy is unnecessary and BOM cost reduction is prioritized |
| MMBZ5248BS-7-F | Single Zener (22 V, ±5 %), SOT363 package, 200 mW Ptot, no common-anode dual configuration | Requires two devices for dual-clamp function; higher board area and assembly cost | Choose only if existing design uses SOT363 footprint and dual functionality is implemented discretely |
Compared with BZB84-C22,215, the BZB84-B22,215 offers tighter regulation for precision references; versus MMBZ5248BS-7-F, it provides integrated dual-clamp capability in half the footprint and eliminates inter-device matching variance.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current rating for BZB84-B22,215?
The absolute maximum forward current is 200 mA per diode, specified under DC conditions with ambient temperature ≤25 °C. This rating assumes proper PCB thermal relief and accounts for self-heating effects - exceeding this value risks irreversible junction damage even if average power remains below 300 mW.
How does the common-anode configuration affect circuit implementation?
The common-anode (Pin 3) forces both Zener cathodes (Pins 1 and 2) to be independently connected to separate nodes needing clamping or referencing. This enables bidirectional voltage limiting relative to ground or allows creation of symmetrical ±22 V references using external resistors - unlike single-Zener parts requiring discrete anode ties.
Is BZB84-B22,215 suitable for use in high-frequency signal paths?
Yes - its 60 pF capacitance at 1 MHz and low differential resistance (250 Ω) make it appropriate for clamping RF-coupled transients on analog sensor lines or digital I/O, provided layout minimizes parasitic inductance. However, it is not intended as a high-speed switching element due to Zener recovery time limitations.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to solder point (Rth(j-sp)) and why does it matter?
Rth(j-sp) is 100 K/W, measured between die junction and solder joints at Pins 1 and 2. This parameter directly impacts transient thermal performance: during short surges, heat flows preferentially into copper traces via solder points rather than ambient air, allowing higher peak power handling before junction overheating occurs.
