Product details
Overview
BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a surface-mount silicon planar Zener diode optimized for voltage regulation and transient overvoltage protection in automotive-grade power rails, with nominal Zener voltage 4.3 V (±2 %), 100 mA test current, 150 W peak surge power rating, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood electronics.
For engineers reviewing the BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08 datasheet, BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08 pinout, BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08 application, or BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal performance data, package dimensions, and validated alternative parts for automotive ECU, ADAS sensor supply, and infotainment system design.
Technical Context
This unidirectional Zener diode operates as a precision shunt regulator at low currents and transitions to robust clamping during transients, leveraging its 4.3 V nominal breakdown voltage and low dynamic resistance (7 Ω typ. at 100 mA). Its temperature coefficient of –0.12 to –0.02 %/°C ensures stable regulation across –65 °C to +175 °C operating range.
Designed for high-reliability automotive use, BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08 features MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity, JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and >8 kV HBM ESD immunity - all validated per AEC-Q101. The DO-219AB (SMF) package enables wave/reflow soldering with peak temperature up to 260 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.21 V min. / 4.3 V nom. / 4.39 V max. - tight ±2 % tolerance enables accurate 3.3 V or 5 V rail clamping without external feedback. |
| Test Current (IZT) | 100 mA - defines regulation point; supports stable operation in medium-current bias networks. |
| Dynamic Resistance (ZZ) | 7 Ω typical - low impedance improves regulation accuracy under load variation. |
| Peak Surge Power (PRSM) | 150 W (10/1000 μs waveform) - withstands ISO 7637-2 pulse 5a/b surges in 12 V vehicle systems. |
| Junction Temperature (TJ) | 175 °C max. - enables placement near hot components (e.g., power MOSFETs, DC-DC inductors) without derating. |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 25 μA max. at VR = 3.4 V - minimizes standby power loss in always-on circuits. |
| Thermal Resistance (RthJA) | 180 K/W on 3 mm × 3 mm Cu pad - informs PCB copper area requirements for thermal management. |

| Cathode | Current source terminal during reverse-bias conduction | Connected to protected rail (e.g., MCU VDD); clamps voltage when exceeds 4.3 V threshold. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including engine control, body electronics, and ADAS sensors - eliminates need for additional qualification testing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation and surge protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZD27C4V3P-M3-08 | Same Zener voltage (4.3 V), ±5 % tolerance (vs. ±2 %), commercial grade (not AEC-Q101 qualified) | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable only for industrial or consumer power supplies | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive reliability requirements and AEC-Q101 validation is not mandated. |
| SMBJ4.5A | TVS diode with 4.5 V standoff, 7.5 V clamping at 1 A, 600 W peak power - higher clamping voltage, no regulation function | Designed for transient suppression only; cannot replace BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08 in precision regulation roles | Choose only for pure surge suppression where precise 4.3 V regulation is unnecessary and higher clamping voltage is acceptable. |
Compared with BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08, BZD27C4V3P-M3-08 trades tighter voltage tolerance and automotive qualification for lower cost, while SMBJ4.5A offers higher surge capacity but lacks regulation capability - making BZD27B4V3P-HM3_A08 uniquely suited for dual-role automotive voltage reference and clamping.
