Product details
Overview
BZD17C75P from Taiwan Semiconductor is a surface-mount silicon Zener diode rated for 0.8 W power dissipation, with a nominal Zener voltage of 75 V (min 70 V, max 79 V) at 10 mA test current, differential resistance ≤100 Ω, and temperature coefficient of +0.08%/°C - used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in DC power rails.
For engineers reviewing the BZD17C75P datasheet, BZD17C75P pinout, BZD17C75P application, or BZD17C75P equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, dynamic impedance at operating current, thermal resistance (RθJA = 180 °C/W), surge capability (300 W non-repetitive pulse), and Sub SMA package compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
The BZD17C75P operates as a single-die, unidirectional Zener diode in avalanche breakdown mode above 70 V, with specified reverse leakage ≤1.0 μA at 56 V and forward voltage of 1.2 V at 0.2 A. Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 180 °C/W on a 5 mm × 5 mm copper pad, supporting stable operation up to TJ = 175 °C.
Designed for low-profile PCB layouts, it features matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability, JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020 - eliminating bake requirements prior to reflow.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STZ75A-TR | Zener voltage 75 V ±5%, Ptot = 1.3 W, DO-214AC package (SMA), RθJA = 125 °C/W | Higher power rating enables higher continuous current but requires larger pad area | Preferred where >0.8 W steady-state dissipation is needed; not drop-in due to SMA vs. Sub SMA footprint |
| MMBZ5265BLT1G | Zener voltage 75 V ±5%, Ptot = 0.35 W, SOT-23 package, rdiff = 130 Ω | Lower power and higher impedance limit use to low-current references only | Suitable for space-constrained logic-level protection; insufficient for 10 mA regulation loads |
Compared with STZ75A-TR and MMBZ5265BLT1G, the BZD17C75P delivers optimal balance of 0.8 W power handling, 100 Ω dynamic impedance, and Sub SMA footprint - making it ideal for mid-power industrial voltage regulation where thermal and layout constraints are critical.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of BZD17C75P?
The BZD17C75P has a Zener voltage range of 70 V to 79 V at IZT = 10 mA, corresponding to a ±6.7% tolerance around the nominal 75 V rating. This tolerance is verified per Taiwan Semiconductor's L2103 specification sheet and applies across the full operating temperature range of −55°C to +175°C without derating.
Can BZD17C75P be used in place of a 75 V Zener in a 12 V automotive circuit?
No - the BZD17C75P is rated for 75 V Zener breakdown and is unsuitable for 12 V circuits. Using it as a clamp or reference in a 12 V system would result in no conduction under normal conditions and potential failure during transients exceeding its rating. Select BZD17C12P or equivalent for 12 V applications.
What is the maximum continuous reverse current BZD17C75P can handle at 75 V?
The BZD17C75P does not specify a maximum continuous reverse current at exactly 75 V. Its rated test current is 10 mA, and maximum power dissipation is 0.8 W at 25°C ambient. At 75 V, this corresponds to ~10.7 mA continuous current (0.8 W ÷ 75 V), assuming no thermal derating - actual usable current depends on PCB copper area and ambient temperature.
Does BZD17C75P meet automotive AEC-Q200 stress testing requirements?
No - the BZD17C75P is not AEC-Q200 qualified. Taiwan Semiconductor's documentation specifies compliance with JESD201 Class 2 whisker testing and J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1, but no AEC-Q200 qualification is stated. For automotive-grade Zener diodes, consult TSC's AEC-Q200-certified product lines or alternative manufacturers' qualified parts.
What is the cathode marking convention for BZD17C75P?
The cathode of the BZD17C75P is marked by a visible molded band on the Sub SMA package body. The marking code "L2" appears adjacent to the band, confirming the 75 V variant. Polarity must be verified visually during placement, as incorrect orientation prevents proper Zener operation and may cause open-circuit failure.
