Product details
Overview
BZB84-C8V2-QR from Nexperia is a dual common-anode Zener diode in SOT23 package, providing precision 8.2 V voltage regulation with ±5 % tolerance, 80 Ω differential resistance at 5 mA, and 0.7 μA reverse current at 6.6 V for automotive power rail clamping and dual-rail reference generation.
For engineers reviewing the BZB84-C8V2-QR datasheet, BZB84-C8V2-QR pinout, BZB84-C8V2-QR application, or BZB84-C8V2-QR equivalent, this device supports AEC-Q101-compliant dual-voltage stabilization in compact SMT designs requiring thermal robustness up to 150 °C junction temperature and non-repetitive surge handling up to 40 W.
Technical Context
This dual-Zener uses a monolithic common-anode configuration enabling independent regulation of two circuits from a shared anode node. Its 8.2 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 5 mA test current with 3.2 mV/K temperature coefficient and 80 Ω dynamic impedance.
The device operates within −55 °C to +150 °C ambient range, dissipates 300 mW total under FR4 PCB mounting conditions, and withstands 4.0 A non-repetitive peak reverse current (100 μs square wave) per diode at Tj = 25 °C prior to surge.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZB84-B8V2-Q | ±2 % tolerance (7.9 V–8.5 V), 60 Ω rdif, higher cost | Required where tighter regulation (<1 % error) is needed for high-precision sensor interfaces | Select when absolute voltage accuracy outweighs cost sensitivity in premium-tier ECUs |
| MMBZ5231BS-7-F | Single Zener (5.1 V), SOT363, no common-anode dual configuration | Only suitable for single-rail applications; requires two devices for dual-rail functionality | Choose only if board layout allows separate placement and cost-per-function is lower than dual-diode integration |
Compared with BZB84-C8V2-QR, the BZB84-B8V2-Q offers tighter voltage control but higher unit cost, while MMBZ5231BS-7-F lacks integrated dual-cathode capability-making the BZB84-C8V2-QR optimal for space-constrained automotive dual-rail designs requiring AEC-Q101 compliance.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for BZB84-C8V2-QR?
The BZB84-C8V2-QR has a total power dissipation limit of 300 mW when mounted on an FR4 PCB with single-sided copper at ambient temperatures ≤25 °C. Derating is required above 25 °C at 2.4 mW/°C, reaching zero dissipation at 150 °C ambient.
Can BZB84-C8V2-QR be used for bidirectional transient suppression?
No-BZB84-C8V2-QR is a unidirectional Zener diode configured for reverse-biased regulation only. It conducts in reverse breakdown above 8.2 V but blocks forward current beyond 0.9 V; bidirectional protection requires pairing with a series diode or using a dedicated TVS array.
How does the common-anode configuration affect circuit layout?
The common-anode (CA) pin must be connected to the system reference potential (typically ground), while K1 and K2 route independently to separate regulated nodes. This eliminates need for two anode traces, reducing routing congestion and parasitic inductance in high-frequency transient paths.
Is marking code UP% sufficient to identify BZB84-C8V2-QR on the PCB?
Yes-per Nexperia's marking table, "UP%" is the unique top-side laser marking for BZB84-C8V2-QR. This code appears on the SOT23 package body and is verified under 20× magnification; no additional date or lot codes are required for part identification.
