Product details
Overview
BZG04-130TR from Vishay Semiconductors is a glass-passivated, surface-mount Zener diode designed for high-energy transient voltage suppression in power rails and signal lines. It features a 130 V standoff voltage, 224 V clamping voltage at 1.3 A peak pulse current, 300 W non-repetitive surge power rating, and DO-214AC (SMA) package - used in industrial motor drives to protect gate drivers from IGBT switching spikes.
For engineers reviewing the BZG04-130TR datasheet, BZG04-130TR pinout, BZG04-130TR application, or BZG04-130TR equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin versus system rail, surge current capability under 10/1000 µs waveform, thermal resistance to PCB copper area, junction temperature limit of 150 °C, and RoHS-compliant lead-free construction.
Technical Context
The BZG04-130TR operates as a unidirectional voltage clamp with a precisely specified breakdown voltage of 153 V (min) at 5 µA test current and a typical temperature coefficient of +0.09 %/K. Its fast response time (≤1 ps) enables effective suppression of nanosecond-scale transients.
Thermal performance depends on PCB mounting: RthJA is 150 K/W on epoxy-glass hard tissue (Fig. 1a), 125 K/W on same substrate with extended copper (Fig. 1b), and 100 K/W on Al₂O₃ ceramic - requiring layout-aware thermal design for sustained 1.25 W dissipation at 50 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Standoff Voltage (VR) | 130 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before significant leakage; defines operating margin below clamping threshold |
| Breakdown Voltage (V(BR)) | 153 V min @ 5 µA - ensures reliable conduction onset during overvoltage events without premature triggering |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | 224 V @ 1.3 A (10/1000 µs) - peak voltage seen by protected circuit during rated surge; critical for downstream component stress analysis |
| Surge Power Rating (PZSM) | 300 W - non-repetitive energy handling capacity; determines survivability against lightning or ESD-induced pulses |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C - absolute maximum operating temperature; constrains power derating and heatsinking requirements |
| Package | DO-214AC (SMA) - industry-standard SMD outline with 77 mg mass and defined thermal pad footprint per Fig. 1 |
| RoHS Compliance | Lead-free, compliant with 2002/95/EC and WEEE 2002/96/EC - meets global environmental and procurement mandates |
Pinout & Package
DO-214AC (SMA) package: molded plastic body with axial leads formed into gull-wing configuration; cathode marked by band; mounted on PCB with thermal pad per Figure 1a/1b.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry / Reverse voltage reference node | Connected to lower-potential side of protected line; establishes polarity-sensitive clamping direction |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / Clamping output node | Connected to higher-potential rail; conducts surge current to ground or return path when VR exceeded |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated junction | Enables stable long-term Zener voltage tolerance and low leakage (<5 µA at VR) across temperature and life cycles |
| Fast response time ≤1 ps | Minimizes voltage overshoot during nanosecond transients, preserving timing integrity in high-speed control circuits |
| 300 W surge power rating | Supports IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV) surge immunity without external series impedance in many applications |
| DO-214AC mechanical robustness | Withstands reflow soldering profiles and board flexure; 77 mg mass reduces mechanical stress on PCB traces |
| High reliability construction | Validated for automotive-grade stress testing per AEC-Q200; suitable for industrial equipment with >10-year service life |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ130A | Same 130 V standoff, but 600 W PPK rating and SMB package (larger footprint, lower RthJA ≈ 85 K/W) | Better thermal performance in high-duty-cycle surge environments; requires larger PCB area | Select SMBJ130A when board space allows and average surge repetition rate exceeds 1 Hz |
| P6SMB130A | Identical electrical specs but legacy DO-214AA package; 1000 W PPK rating; higher VF (1.5 V) and 100 mA IFSM | Higher surge margin but slower response (>1 ns); not suitable for sub-10 ns transients | Choose P6SMB130A only for cost-sensitive, low-frequency surge applications where response time is non-critical |
Compared with SMBJ130A and P6SMB130A, the BZG04-130TR offers superior response speed (≤1 ps vs. >1 ns), tighter voltage tolerance, and optimized thermal interface for compact DO-214AC layouts - making it preferred for space-constrained, high-speed industrial controls.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the BZG04-130TR under standard test conditions?
The BZG04-130TR has a maximum clamping voltage of 224 V when subjected to a 10/1000 µs surge pulse at 1.3 A peak current. This value is measured per IEC 61000-4-5 guidelines and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during transient events. The BZG04-130TR maintains this clamping performance across its qualified operating temperature range.
Does the BZG04-130TR meet RoHS and lead-free requirements?
Yes, the BZG04-130TR is a lead-free component fully compliant with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC. Vishay confirms that no ozone-depleting substances are used in its manufacture, and the BZG04-130TR carries the e3 marking indicating pure tin termination finish. This makes the BZG04-130TR suitable for global commercial and industrial deployments.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for the BZG04-130TR on standard FR-4 PCB?
When mounted on epoxy-glass hard tissue (FR-4) per Figure 1a in the datasheet, the BZG04-130TR exhibits a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RthJA) of 150 K/W. With extended copper pads per Figure 1b, RthJA improves to 125 K/W. These values directly determine safe power derating - for example, at 50 °C ambient, the BZG04-130TR supports 1.25 W continuous dissipation with RthJA = 100 K/W mounting.
Can the BZG04-130TR be used in bidirectional transient suppression applications?
No, the BZG04-130TR is a unidirectional Zener diode intended for single-polarity clamping. It conducts only when cathode voltage exceeds anode voltage by ≥153 V. For bidirectional protection (e.g., AC lines or differential signals), two BZG04-130TR devices must be connected in series opposition, or a dedicated bidirectional TVS like SMAJ130A should be selected instead of the BZG04-130TR.
What is the forward voltage drop of the BZG04-130TR at 0.5 A DC current?
The BZG04-130TR has a typical forward voltage (VF) of 1.2 V at 0.5 A forward current, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This low VF minimizes conduction losses during fault conditions and supports efficient energy shunting. The BZG04-130TR maintains this VF characteristic across its operational junction temperature range up to 150 °C.
