Product details
Overview
BZB84-B43-QR from Nexperia is a dual common-anode Zener diode in SOT23 package, providing precise 43 V voltage regulation with ±2 % tolerance, 300 mW total power dissipation, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive power rail stabilization and overvoltage clamping.
For engineers reviewing the BZB84-B43-QR datasheet, BZB84-B43-QR pinout, BZB84-B43-QR application, or BZB84-B43-QR equivalent, this device serves as a compact dual-Zener solution for redundant reference generation, bidirectional transient suppression, and dual-rail voltage monitoring in space-constrained automotive ECUs and industrial control modules.
Technical Context
This dual-Zener diode integrates two independent 43 V Zener elements sharing a common anode terminal (Pin 3), enabling symmetrical clamping or complementary reference configurations without external interconnects. Its differential resistance of 375 Ω at IZ = 2 mA ensures stable regulation under moderate load variation.
The device operates across −55 °C to +150 °C ambient temperature and exhibits a temperature coefficient of +0.05 mV/K, minimizing drift in engine bay or under-hood environments. Non-repetitive peak reverse current capability reaches 0.6 A (100 µs square wave), supporting surge immunity per ISO 7637-2.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 42.1 V to 43.9 V at IZ = 2 mA - tight ±2 % tolerance enables accurate 43 V reference without trimming |
| Total Power Dissipation | 300 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - supports continuous operation on standard FR4 PCB with single-sided copper |
| Differential Resistance | 375 Ω at IZ = 2 mA - low impedance maintains regulation stability against load current shifts |
| Reverse Current (IR) | < 0.05 µA at VR = 30.1 V - minimal leakage preserves battery-backed circuit integrity |
| Non-repetitive Peak Current | 0.6 A (100 µs, Tj = 25 °C) - handles ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a transients without degradation |
| Junction Temperature | 150 °C maximum - rated for under-hood deployment in automotive power management systems |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Qualified for automotive discrete semiconductors - meets stress test requirements for vibration, temperature cycling, and HTRB |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MMBZ5262BS | Single 43 V Zener in SOT-363; no common-anode dual configuration; ±5 % tolerance | Requires external anode tie for dual use; higher voltage drift limits precision reference use | Select when only one 43 V reference is needed and board space permits discrete layout |
| Vishay BZX84-C43-TP | Single Zener in SOT-23; ±5 % tolerance; no dual-element integration; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Lacks redundancy and automotive qualification; unsuitable for safety-critical ECU monitoring | Use only in cost-sensitive consumer applications where AEC compliance and dual functionality are unnecessary |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current rating for BZB84-B43-QR?
The device has no specified continuous reverse current rating; it is designed for regulated Zener operation at IZ = 2 mA (typical test condition). Maximum DC power dissipation is limited to 300 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C, corresponding to ~7 mA average current at 43 V - sustained operation above this requires thermal derating per Rth(j-a) = 417 K/W.
Can BZB84-B43-QR be used in a back-to-back configuration for AC signal clamping?
No - the common-anode architecture (K1–CA–K2) prevents true back-to-back connection. To clamp both polarities, external diodes must be added in series with each cathode, or a dedicated bidirectional TVS like PESD5V0S1BA should be selected instead.
Is the 43 V Zener voltage specified at DC or pulsed conditions?
Zener voltage is characterized at DC IZ = 2 mA per Table 9; all electrical parameters in the Characteristics section assume steady-state DC bias unless otherwise noted (e.g., IZSM specifies 100 µs pulse conditions).
Does the SOT23 package support hand-soldering repair?
Yes - the SOT23 footprint is compatible with hot-air rework tools and fine-tip irons; recommended solder profile follows J-STD-020, with peak temperature ≤ 260 °C for ≤ 10 seconds. Pad layout matches Nexperia's Fig. 12 reflow footprint for optimal thermal transfer.
