Product details
Overview
BZG03C75TR from Vishay Semiconductors is a glass-passivated, surface-mount Zener diode rated for 75 V nominal Zener voltage (VZ = 70–79 V at IZT = 10 mA), 3 W steady-state power dissipation at Tamb = 100 °C with RthJA < 25 K/W, and 600 W non-repetitive surge capability (tp = 100 µs). It stabilizes reference voltages in industrial power supplies and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZG03C75TR datasheet, BZG03C75TR pinout, BZG03C75TR application, or BZG03C75TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its DO-214AC package compatibility, ±5% VZ tolerance, 30 Ω dynamic resistance at 10 mA, temperature coefficient of +0.08%/K, and RoHS-compliant lead-free construction.
Technical Context
The BZG03C75TR operates as a precision voltage reference device using a silicon p-n junction with glass passivation for enhanced reliability and moisture resistance. Its thermal design supports mounting on Al2O3 ceramic substrates (RthJA = 100 K/W) or epoxy-glass PCBs (RthJA = 125–150 K/W), enabling stable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
It delivers regulated output under reverse-bias conditions with low leakage (IR ≤ 1 µA at VR = 56 V) and controlled forward conduction (VF = 1.2 V at IF = 0.5 A), supporting bidirectional transient suppression and clamping functions in DC power rails.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ75A | TVS diode with 75 V standoff voltage, 600 W peak pulse power, but higher clamping voltage (121 V) and no precise Zener regulation | Designed for transient suppression only-not suitable for precision voltage reference use | Select when surge immunity dominates over regulation accuracy |
| 1N5365B | Through-hole 75 V Zener, 5 W power rating, TO-204AA package, higher thermal resistance (RthJA ≈ 250 K/W) | Requires through-hole assembly and larger board area; less suitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select when higher continuous power and legacy through-hole compatibility are required |
Compared with SMBJ75A and 1N5365B, the BZG03C75TR uniquely combines SMT-compatible DO-214AC packaging, tight 70–79 V Zener tolerance, and 30 Ω dynamic resistance-making it optimal for space-constrained, precision-regulated 75 V reference designs where thermal performance and long-term stability are critical.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of BZG03C75TR?
The BZG03C75TR has a specified Zener voltage range of 70 V to 79 V at 10 mA test current, corresponding to a ±5% tolerance around the nominal 75 V rating. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of Vishay Document Number 85593 Rev. 1.7 and applies under standard test conditions (Tamb = 25 °C).
Can BZG03C75TR be used in reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the BZG03C75TR is explicitly rated for both wave and reflow soldering per its datasheet. Its DO-214AC package and glass-passivated junction withstand standard Pb-free reflow profiles (e.g., JEDEC J-STD-020), making it compatible with automated SMT assembly lines without special thermal profiling.
What is the maximum junction temperature for BZG03C75TR?
The absolute maximum junction temperature for BZG03C75TR is 150 °C, as stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section of Vishay's Document Number 85593. Operation beyond this limit risks permanent parametric shift or catastrophic failure, and thermal design must ensure Tj remains within specification under worst-case power dissipation.
How does the temperature coefficient affect BZG03C75TR's performance?
The BZG03C75TR exhibits a typical temperature coefficient of +0.08%/K, meaning its Zener voltage increases by approximately 0.06 V per 10 °C rise in junction temperature. This positive drift is critical for predicting regulation accuracy across operating temperature ranges and must be factored into reference-circuit error budgets.
Is BZG03C75TR compliant with RoHS and lead-free requirements?
Yes, BZG03C75TR is certified lead (Pb)-free and compliant with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC, as documented in Vishay's official datasheet (Rev. 1.7, 15-Sep-05). The component contains no restricted substances above allowable thresholds and supports environmentally responsible manufacturing.
