Product details
Overview
BZT5250H-C30-QX from Nexperia is a low-current Zener diode in SOD123F package, rated for 30 V nominal Zener voltage (±5 % tolerance), 50 µA test current, and 830 mW total power dissipation. It serves as a precision voltage reference or regulation element in low-bias circuits, especially in automotive body control modules requiring AEC-Q101-qualified components.
For engineers reviewing the BZT5250H-C30-QX datasheet, BZT5250H-C30-QX pinout, BZT5250H-C30-QX application, or BZT5250H-C30-QX equivalent, key selection criteria include its 30 V Zener voltage at 50 µA, ±5 % tolerance, 300 Ω differential resistance at 5 mA, 0.05 µA reverse leakage at VR = 22.8 V, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood use.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates with a specified test current of 50 µA-enabling stable regulation in ultra-low-power sensor biasing and microcontroller reset circuits. Its thermal resistance from junction to solder point is 150 K/W, supporting reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
The device exhibits a temperature coefficient of +0.4 mV/K at 30 V and diode capacitance of 50 pF at 1 MHz and 0 V, making it suitable for noise-sensitive analog references where capacitance and thermal drift must be tightly controlled.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZT5250H-B30-Q | ±2 % tolerance (29.4–30.6 V), lower rdiff (200 Ω), tighter tempco (−2.0 mV/K) | Preferred for precision analog references where 1 % absolute accuracy outweighs cost sensitivity | Select when system-level calibration budget permits tighter initial tolerance and lower dynamic impedance |
| MMSZ5250ET1G | 30 V nominal, ±5 %, SOD-123 package, 500 mW Ptot, not AEC-Q101 qualified | Suitable for industrial/commercial designs without automotive reliability requirements | Choose for cost-driven non-automotive applications where 330 mW lower power rating is acceptable |
Compared with BZT5250H-C30-QX, the BZT5250H-B30-Q offers higher precision but lacks intentional leakage optimization for noise reduction, while MMSZ5250ET1G trades AEC-Q101 compliance and 830 mW rating for lower unit cost in non-automotive contexts.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance and test condition for BZT5250H-C30-QX?
The BZT5250H-C30-QX has a nominal Zener voltage of 30 V with ±5 % tolerance, measured at a test current of 50 µA. This low test current enables stable regulation in micropower applications such as battery-backed sensors and low-leakage reset circuits, where traditional 5 mA Zener tests would overload the source.
Is BZT5250H-C30-QX qualified for automotive use?
Yes-BZT5250H-C30-QX is fully qualified to AEC-Q101 standards for discrete semiconductors, including stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock. It is recommended for under-hood and cabin applications including body control modules, lighting drivers, and infotainment power supervision.
How does the SOD123F package affect thermal performance?
The SOD123F package delivers a junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance of 150 K/W when mounted on an FR4 PCB with a 1 cm² cathode pad. This enables reliable 830 mW power dissipation at ambient temperatures up to 25 °C and supports operation up to 150 °C junction temperature in thermally managed automotive layouts.
What distinguishes the 'C' series from the 'B' series in the BZT5250H-Q family?
The 'C' series (e.g., BZT5250H-C30-QX) features ±5 % tolerance and intentional minor leakage current rise to improve switching speed and reduce high-frequency noise-ideal for feedback loops and fast transient suppression. The 'B' series offers ±2 % tolerance and lower leakage, prioritizing precision over noise performance.
