Product details
Overview
BZT52C15LPQ from Diodes Incorporated is a 15 V, 5 mA Zener diode in an ultra-small X1-DFN1006-2 package, rated for 250 mW power dissipation and AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive voltage regulation and ESD protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52C15LPQ datasheet, BZT52C15LPQ pinout, BZT52C15LPQ application, or BZT52C15LPQ equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±4.7%), low dynamic impedance (200 Ω @ 5 mA), temperature coefficient (+9.2 to +13.0 mV/°C), and IATF16949-certified manufacturing for mission-critical embedded systems.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its 15 V nominal zener voltage is specified at 5 mA test current with ±4.7% tolerance (13.8–15.6 V), and exhibits a positive temperature coefficient between +9.2 and +13.0 mV/°C.
The device uses a planar silicon junction structure optimized for low leakage and repeatable breakdown characteristics. It supports continuous operation from −65 °C to +150 °C and derates linearly above +25 °C ambient, delivering 125 mW at +125 °C per the published power derating curve.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for BZT52C15LPQ?
The BZT52C15LPQ has a nominal zener voltage of 15 V, with a guaranteed breakdown range of 13.8 V to 15.6 V at 5 mA test current. It does not exhibit sharp breakdown below 13.8 V; reverse leakage remains ≤0.1 µA up to 10.5 V, per the Electrical Characteristics table.
Can BZT52C15LPQ be used in parallel for higher power dissipation?
No-parallel connection of Zener diodes is not recommended due to mismatched breakdown voltages and thermal runaway risk. The device is rated for 250 mW at 25 °C and must be thermally managed via PCB copper area; for higher power, select a single higher-rated part like MMSZ5245B-7-F.
Is the X1-DFN1006-2 package compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes-the X1-DFN1006-2 package is qualified for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1. Standard IPC/JEDEC profiles apply; no pre-bake is required, and peak temperatures up to 260 °C are supported with appropriate soak time.
Does BZT52C15LPQ support bidirectional ESD protection?
No-it is a unidirectional Zener diode. For bidirectional ESD protection, pair it with a series diode or use a dedicated TVS array such as D24Z5.1LQ-7, which provides symmetrical ±5.1 V clamping and IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 compliance.
