Product details
Overview
BZG04-82TR from Vishay Semiconductors is a glass-passivated, lead-free Zener diode designed for high-energy transient voltage suppression in power supply and interface protection circuits. It features a nominal standoff voltage of 82 V, 300 W non-repetitive peak surge power (10/1000 µs), clamping voltage of 139 V at 2.2 A, and operates up to 150 °C junction temperature - deployed in industrial power input stages and telecom line interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the BZG04-82TR datasheet, BZG04-82TR pinout, BZG04-82TR application, or BZG04-82TR equivalent, key selection criteria include verified clamping performance under 10/1000 µs surges, thermal resistance on epoxy-glass PCB (125 K/W), DO-214AC package compatibility, and RoHS-compliant lead-free construction.
Technical Context
The BZG04-82TR functions as a unidirectional voltage-clamping device with a precisely defined breakdown voltage (94 V min, 104 V max at 5 mA) and fast response time (≤1 ps). Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable Zener characteristics and high reliability under repeated surge stress.
Thermal design relies on its low junction-to-lead thermal resistance (25 K/W) and configurable junction-to-ambient resistance (100–150 K/W depending on PCB mounting), enabling robust operation in compact industrial enclosures without forced cooling.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ82A | Higher clamping voltage (137 V min), same DO-214AA package, 600 W peak power rating | Designed for bidirectional surge suppression; lacks precise Zener regulation in forward bias | Select when higher surge margin is required and bidirectional protection is acceptable |
| P6SMB82A | Same clamping voltage spec (139 V), 600 W rating, DO-214AA package, slightly higher leakage (5 µA vs. 5 µA) | Optimized for general-purpose TVS use; less tightly specified breakdown tolerance than BZG04-82TR | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where ±10 % VBR tolerance is sufficient |
Compared with SMBJ82A and P6SMB82A, the BZG04-82TR offers tighter breakdown voltage control (94–104 V vs. 77.9–86.1 V), superior long-term stability via glass passivation, and explicit surge current validation - making it preferred for precision-regulated clamping in mission-critical industrial systems.

FAQ
What is the exact breakdown voltage range for BZG04-82TR?
The BZG04-82TR has a guaranteed breakdown voltage range of 94 V to 104 V at 5 mA test current, as specified in Vishay Document 85594 Rev. 2.2. This tight tolerance ensures predictable clamping behavior in precision protection circuits, and the value is measured under controlled 25 °C ambient conditions with validated test methodology.
Does BZG04-82TR support bidirectional transient suppression?
No, the BZG04-82TR is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias clamping only. It conducts in forward bias like a standard silicon diode (VF = 1.2 V at 0.5 A), but its surge rating and clamping specification apply solely to reverse polarity events. For bidirectional protection, a paired configuration or dedicated bidirectional TVS such as SMBJ82CA is required.
What is the maximum allowable PCB trace length for thermal performance of BZG04-82TR?
Vishay specifies thermal resistance values based on defined board configurations (Fig. 1a/b in Doc. 85594): RthJA = 125 K/W assumes 10 mm lead length on epoxy-glass PCB. Extending copper pour beyond 10 mm reduces thermal resistance further, but no maximum trace length is defined - instead, thermal design must ensure junction temperature stays ≤150 °C under worst-case power dissipation and ambient conditions.
Is BZG04-82TR suitable for IEC 61000-4-5 compliance testing?
Yes, the BZG04-82TR's 300 W peak surge power rating (10/1000 µs) and 139 V clamping voltage at 2.2 A enable it to meet IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV, 2 Ω source) requirements when implemented with appropriate PCB layout - including short traces, adequate ground plane, and series impedance matching - as confirmed in Vishay's application guidance for the BZG04-Series.
What does the "TR" suffix indicate in BZG04-82TR?
The "TR" suffix in BZG04-82TR denotes tape-and-reel packaging: 1.5 k units per 7-inch reel, optimized for automated SMT placement. This differs from "TR3", which indicates 6 k units per 13-inch reel. Both variants share identical electrical and thermal specifications; only packaging and reel dimensions differ.
