Product details
Overview
BZB84-C6V2,215 from Nexperia is a dual common-anode Zener diode in SOT23 package, rated for 6.2 V nominal Zener voltage (±5 % tolerance), 300 mW total power dissipation, and 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power. It delivers stable voltage regulation in compact automotive and industrial power rail protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZB84-C6V2,215 datasheet, BZB84-C6V2,215 pinout, BZB84-C6V2,215 application, or BZB84-C6V2,215 equivalent, this device serves as a space-constrained dual-Zener solution for bidirectional overvoltage clamping, precision reference generation, and ESD-robust signal line protection - with verified AEC-Q101 qualification and thermal resistance of 100 K/W to solder point.
Technical Context
This dual-Zener diode integrates two independent 6.2 V Zener elements sharing a common anode (Pin 3), enabling symmetrical clamping across differential or complementary signal paths. Its ±5 % voltage tolerance and 150 Ω typical differential resistance at IZ = 5 mA support stable regulation under moderate load variation.
Designed for surface-mount reliability, it features AEC-Q101 qualification, 150 °C maximum junction temperature, and FR4 PCB–optimized thermal resistance (Rth(j-sp) = 100 K/W). The 200 mA forward current rating and 0.9 V forward voltage at 10 mA ensure low-loss conduction during forward bias operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 6.08 V to 6.32 V at IZ = 5 mA - tight 6.2 V nominal regulation with ±5 % tolerance for stable reference accuracy |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 150 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - low dynamic impedance ensures minimal output voltage shift under load transients |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 300 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - defines continuous DC power handling limit before thermal derating begins |
| Non-repetitive Peak Reverse Power (PZSM) | 40 W for tp = 100 µs square wave - supports transient surge suppression in ESD and load-dump events |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.9 V max at IF = 10 mA - enables low-loss forward conduction for clamp-assisted signal routing |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −55 °C to +150 °C - validated operating range for under-hood automotive and high-temp industrial environments |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - certified for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing per AEC standard |
Pinout & Package
SOT23 (TO-236AB) plastic surface-mount package: 3-pin, small-outline transistor outline with gull-wing leads; footprint compatible with standard reflow and wave soldering per Nexperia's sot023_fr/sot023_fw guidelines.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (Diode 1) | Provides Zener breakdown path for first diode; connects to regulated node or signal line requiring clamping |
| 2 | Cathode (Diode 2) | Independent cathode for second Zener; enables dual-rail or bidirectional clamping configuration |
| 3 | Common Anode | Shared anode terminal - ties both diodes to ground or reference potential, defining common return path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual common-anode topology | Enables symmetrical bidirectional voltage clamping without external wiring - reduces board area and component count |
| ±5 % Zener voltage tolerance (C-series) | Meets cost-sensitive industrial regulation needs while maintaining sufficient accuracy for non-precision references |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive power management modules, infotainment supply rails, and body control units |
| 40 W non-repetitive peak power rating | Handles ISO 7637-2 pulse 1/2/5a surges and IEC 61000-4-2 ESD events up to ±8 kV contact discharge |
| 100 K/W junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance | Ensures efficient heat transfer to PCB copper, supporting sustained operation at elevated ambient temperatures |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5234BS-7-F | Single Zener (6.2 V, ±5 %), SOT363 package, 200 mW Ptot, no common-anode dual configuration | Requires two devices and extra routing for dual-clamp function; higher board area and assembly cost | Select when discrete single-Zener placement offers layout flexibility or when dual-cathode symmetry is unnecessary |
| BZX84-C6V2,215 | Single Zener (6.2 V, ±5 %), SOT23 package, 350 mW Ptot, no dual-diode integration | Lacks bidirectional clamping capability; unsuitable for differential or complementary signal protection | Choose only for unidirectional regulation where space permits separate devices and cost favors single-diode sourcing |
Compared with MMBZ5234BS-7-F and BZX84-C6V2,215, the BZB84-C6V2,215 uniquely provides integrated dual-Zener functionality in one SOT23 footprint - reducing bill-of-materials count by one device and eliminating inter-device matching variance critical in precision clamping.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current the BZB84-C6V2,215 can sustain at 25 °C ambient?
The device does not specify a maximum continuous reverse current (IZ) rating; instead, its DC power limit is governed by Ptot = 300 mW. At nominal 6.2 V Zener voltage, this corresponds to ~48 mA average reverse current before thermal derating applies. Operation above this requires strict ambient and PCB thermal management per Rth(j-a) = 417 K/W.
Can the BZB84-C6V2,215 be used for bidirectional ESD protection on a differential pair?
Yes - its dual-cathode/common-anode structure allows direct connection of Cathode 1 to one line and Cathode 2 to the complementary line, with the common anode grounded. This forms a symmetrical ±6.2 V clamping window, validated for IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±8 kV contact) when combined with appropriate series impedance.
How does the temperature coefficient behave near 6.2 V nominal Zener voltage?
Per Table 8, the BZB84-C6V2 exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.4 mV/K to +3.7 mV/K depending on test current (IZ = 5 mA), meaning its Zener voltage increases linearly with junction temperature - critical for designs requiring predictable drift compensation in wide-temperature-range applications.
Is the SOT23 package lead finish RoHS-compliant and compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes - Nexperia specifies the SOT23 package for BZB84-C6V2,215 uses 100 % matte tin (Sn) lead finish, qualified for standard Pb-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020. The recommended peak temperature is 260 °C, with 60-second maximum duration above 217 °C, matching IPC/JEDEC Class 3 requirements.
