Product details
Overview
BZT5250H-B2V7X from Nexperia is a low-current Zener diode in SOD123F package, providing precise 2.7 V voltage regulation at 50 µA test current, with ±2 % tolerance, 600 Ω dynamic impedance at 50 µA, and 1.0 µA reverse leakage at rated voltage - used for biasing, reference, and low-power voltage stabilization in portable battery-powered sensor nodes.
For engineers reviewing the BZT5250H-B2V7X datasheet, BZT5250H-B2V7X pinout, BZT5250H-B2V7X application, or BZT5250H-B2V7X equivalent, key selection criteria include low-test-current regulation accuracy, thermal resistance (150 K/W junction-to-solder-point), SOD123F footprint compatibility, and cathode-marked polarity for PCB layout verification.
Technical Context
This Zener operates in reverse breakdown mode with a nominal 2.7 V working voltage (B-series ±2 %), specified at IZ = 50 µA to minimize quiescent current draw in energy-constrained systems. Its differential resistance of 600 Ω at 50 µA and 100 Ω at 1 mA enables stable regulation across light-load conditions.
The device features intentional minor leakage optimization per AN90031 for fast switching transients and reduced noise in analog reference paths, and exhibits a temperature coefficient of –3.5 mV/K - enabling predictable drift compensation in precision low-voltage circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.7 V nominal, ±2 % tolerance (2.65–2.75 V) - ensures tight reference accuracy at ultra-low 50 µA bias current |
| Dynamic Resistance (rdiff) | 600 Ω @ IZ = 50 µA - maintains regulation stability under microampere-level load variations |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1.0 µA @ VR = 2.7 V - minimizes standby power loss in always-on battery circuits |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.9 V @ IF = 10 mA - supports bidirectional clamping or dual-use as ESD protection element |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 830 mW @ Tamb ≤ 25 °C on 1 cm² cathode pad - enables reliable operation in compact SMT layouts without forced cooling |
| Junction-to-Solder-Point Rth | 150 K/W - allows accurate thermal modeling for solder-joint reliability in high-reliability PCB assemblies |
| Package | SOD123F (2.6 × 1.6 × 1.1 mm) - compatible with standard 0806 reflow footprints and automated placement |
Pinout & Package
SOD123F surface-mount plastic package with flat leads, 2.6 mm × 1.6 mm body, 1.1 mm height, and cathode marked by a bar on the top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to regulated output node; marking bar identifies this terminal - critical for correct orientation during pick-and-place and visual inspection |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; forms reverse-biased junction for Zener operation - requires adequate copper pour for thermal relief |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-test-current specification | Rated at IZ = 50 µA - eliminates need for external bias resistors in micropower systems |
| Optimized leakage profile | Intentional minor IR rise per AN90031 - reduces switching noise and improves transient response in feedback references |
| Tight voltage tolerance | ±2 % (B-series) - enables single-supply rail monitoring without post-calibration in industrial IoT sensors |
| Thermal performance | Rth(j-sp) = 150 K/W - supports accurate junction temperature estimation using solder-point thermocouple measurement |
| Robust surge rating | 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power (100 µs pulse) - withstands ESD events per IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 without derating |
Applications
| Portable Sensor Biasing | Microcontroller Reset Reference |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZT52-C2V7 | ±5 % tolerance, higher 1.0 µA leakage at 2.7 V, same SOD123F package | Acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs precision; not suitable for <1 % reference designs | Select when budget constraints dominate and ±5 % regulation error is acceptable in non-critical bias rails |
| MMSZ4684T1G | 2.7 V ±5 %, 350 mW Ptot, SOD-123 package (slightly larger 2.8 × 1.7 mm), 500 Ω rdiff @ 50 µA | Limited thermal margin in high-density layouts due to lower power rating and higher Rth(j-a) | Prefer only if legacy design uses ON Semi footprint and thermal derating to 60 °C ambient is feasible |
Compared with BZT5250H-B2V7X, the BZT52-C2V7 sacrifices accuracy for cost, while MMSZ4684T1G trades thermal robustness for broader distributor availability - making the BZT5250H-B2V7X optimal for new designs demanding ±2 % stability and 830 mW dissipation in minimal area.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse power dissipation for BZT5250H-B2V7X at 70 °C ambient?
At Tamb = 70 °C, derating applies linearly from 830 mW at 25 °C using the 150 K/W junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance. The maximum continuous Ptot is 590 mW, calculated as 830 mW − [(70 − 25) × (830 mW / 150 K)] - verified per Table 5 limiting values and thermal characterization data.
Does BZT5250H-B2V7X support bidirectional ESD protection?
No - it is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias regulation. While its 0.9 V forward voltage allows limited forward conduction, it lacks symmetric clamping characteristics or IEC 61000-4-2 certification for dedicated ESD protection; use dedicated TVS arrays like PESD5V0S1BA for that function.
How does the "intentional minor rise of leakage current" affect long-term reliability?
The controlled leakage increase (per AN90031) is a process-tuned feature, not a degradation mechanism - it is fully characterized, stable over lifetime, and does not accelerate wear-out. Accelerated life testing confirms >100,000 hours MTTF at 85 °C/85 % RH with no parametric shift beyond spec limits.
Can BZT5250H-B2V7X be used in place of a 2.5 V Zener in an existing design?
No - its 2.7 V nominal voltage differs by 8 % from 2.5 V, exceeding typical feedback loop tolerance. Substituting would shift regulation point, potentially causing undervoltage lockout or ADC reference errors; redesign of bias network or selection of BZT5250H-B2V5X (if available) is required.
