Product details
Overview
BZT5250H-B30-QX from Nexperia is a low-current Zener diode in SOD123F package, designed for precision voltage regulation at 30 V nominal Zener voltage (±2 % tolerance), 50 µA test current, and ≤830 mW total power dissipation. It serves as a stable reference or clamp in battery-powered sensor nodes, automotive body electronics, and low-power microcontroller reset circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT5250H-B30-QX datasheet, BZT5250H-B30-QX pinout, BZT5250H-B30-QX application, or BZT5250H-B30-QX equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal resistance data, cathode/anode terminal mapping, and automotive-grade leakage behavior per AN90031.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates with a specified 30 V nominal breakdown voltage at IZ = 50 µA, exhibiting 300 Ω typical differential resistance at IZ = 5 mA and a temperature coefficient of +0.05 mV/K. Its low test current enables minimal quiescent bias in always-on monitoring circuits.
The device features intentional minor leakage rise per AN90031 to improve switching speed and reduce noise in dynamic clamping roles. Qualified to AEC-Q101, it supports junction temperatures up to 150 °C and ambient ranges from −55 °C to +150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 29.4 V to 30.6 V at IZ = 50 µA - tight ±2 % tolerance enables accurate 30 V reference without trimming |
| Differential Resistance rdiff | 300 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - ensures stable regulation under small load variations |
| Forward Voltage VF | 0.9 V max at IF = 10 mA - low conduction loss when used in bidirectional protection configurations |
| Total Power Dissipation Ptot | 830 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C on FR4 PCB with 1 cm² cathode pad - defines thermal derating envelope for surface-mount layout |
| Junction-to-Ambient Rth(j-a) | 330 K/W in free air - informs natural-convection thermal design for non-heatsinked applications |
| Reverse Current IR | 0.05 µA max at VR = 22.8 V - ultra-low leakage preserves battery life in standby mode |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive body control modules, lighting, and infotainment power rails |
Pinout & Package
SOD123F plastic surface-mount package: 2.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.1 mm body, flat lead profile, cathode marked by bar on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to regulated output node; marking bar identifies this terminal - reverse-biased during Zener operation |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; completes bias path for controlled breakdown conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-test-current Zener operation | Specified at IZ = 50 µA - minimizes standby current draw in coin-cell or energy-harvesting systems |
| Automotive-grade reliability | AEC-Q101 qualified - meets stress-test requirements for vibration, temperature cycling, and humidity in vehicle ECUs |
| Optimized leakage profile | Intentional minor IR rise per AN90031 - reduces switching transients and high-frequency noise in signal-line clamping |
| Thermally robust SMD package | SOD123F with 150 K/W junction-to-solder-point resistance - enables direct thermal coupling to copper pour for improved power handling |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor MMBZ5250BS | Same 30 V nominal, ±5 % tolerance, SOD-123 package, but rated only to 350 mW Ptot | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and optimized leakage profile per AN90031 | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance and noise performance |
| Vishay BZX84-C30 | 30 V nominal, ±5 %, SOT-23 package, 300 mW Ptot, no AEC-Q101 or low-IZ optimization | Higher rdiff (600 Ω) and larger footprint mismatch vs. SOD123F routing | Choose only for legacy SOT-23 board reuse where space permits and automotive grade not required |
Compared with MMBZ5250BS and BZX84-C30, BZT5250H-B30-QX delivers tighter tolerance, higher power margin (830 mW), AEC-Q101 validation, and application-specific leakage tuning - making it the sole choice for new automotive and ultra-low-power designs requiring 30 V regulation stability.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for BZT5250H-B30-QX?
The guaranteed breakdown range is 29.4 V to 30.6 V at IZ = 50 µA, with a maximum non-repetitive peak reverse voltage of 40 V for 100 µs pulses. Operation above 30.6 V under DC conditions risks exceeding specified differential resistance and thermal limits.
Does BZT5250H-B30-QX support reflow soldering only, or can it be hand-soldered?
Reflow soldering is the only recommended method per Nexperia's documentation. Hand-soldering is not advised due to thermal stress risks on the SOD123F package; peak reflow temperature must not exceed 260 °C for ≤10 seconds, with preheat at 150–200 °C for 60–120 seconds.
How does the "intentional minor rise of leakage current" affect circuit behavior?
Per AN90031, this controlled IR increase improves transient response and suppresses high-frequency ringing during fast voltage transitions - beneficial in ESD protection and signal-line clamping, but irrelevant in pure DC reference use where leakage is held below 0.05 µA at 22.8 V.
Is the 830 mW power rating valid across the full −55 °C to +150 °C ambient range?
No - the 830 mW rating applies only at Tamb ≤ 25 °C with specified PCB mounting (1 cm² cathode pad). Derating begins linearly above 25 °C, reaching zero at approximately 125 °C ambient based on Rth(j-a) = 330 K/W and Tj(max) = 150 °C.
