Product details
Overview
BZT52C27-G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 27 V, ±5% tolerance surface-mount Zener diode in SOD-123 package, rated for 350 mW power dissipation and operating across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range; it provides precise voltage regulation in low-power supply rails and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52C27-G datasheet, BZT52C27-G pinout, BZT52C27-G application, or BZT52C27-G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 25.1–28.9 V zener voltage range at 2 mA test current, 80 Ω dynamic impedance, 0.1 µA leakage at 18.9 V, and SOD-123 mechanical compatibility with automated PCB assembly.
Technical Context
The BZT52C27-G operates as a single-die, cathode-banded Zener diode optimized for stable reverse-breakdown regulation under low-current conditions (IZT = 2 mA). Its thermal resistance of 357°C/W and 150°C max junction temperature support reliable operation in compact, thermally constrained layouts.
It exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +21.4 mV/°C at IZTC = 2 mA and maintains ≤0.1 µA leakage current at VR = 25.3 V, enabling accurate biasing in precision analog references and overvoltage clamping where stability at elevated temperatures matters.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5256BS-7-F | Zener voltage 27 V ±5%, but rated for only 200 mW PD and higher ZZT = 100 Ω at 20 mA | Lower power handling limits surge absorption capability in clamping roles | Select when board space requires SOT-23 and thermal load remains below 150 mW |
| 1N4748A | Through-hole DO-41 package, 1 W PD, 27 V ±5%, ZZT = 20 Ω at 21 mA | Requires manual insertion or wave soldering; unsuitable for fully SMT lines | Choose for high-energy transient suppression where SOD-123 thermal limits are exceeded |
Compared with MMBZ5256BS-7-F and 1N4748A, the BZT52C27-G delivers optimal balance of SMT compatibility, 350 mW power margin, and 80 Ω impedance for mid-range regulation tasks-neither over-engineered nor thermally constrained.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of the BZT52C27-G?
The BZT52C27-G has a ±5% zener voltage tolerance, resulting in a guaranteed breakdown range of 25.1 V to 28.9 V at a test current of 2 mA. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table on page 2 of the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet revision C2007. The BZT52C27-G achieves this specification without requiring binning or post-manufacturing sorting.
Does the BZT52C27-G meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, the BZT52C27-G is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, as explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet. The molding compound, plating, and internal materials have been validated to meet both directives, and the device carries the "-G" suffix denoting green compliance. This applies directly to the BZT52C27-G, not just the family.
What is the maximum power dissipation for the BZT52C27-G at room temperature?
The BZT52C27-G has an absolute maximum power dissipation (PD) of 350 mW at TA = 25°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Derating begins above 25°C at 2.8 mW/°C, consistent with its 357°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. This rating is measured under free-air conditions and assumes proper PCB copper area per the recommended SOD-123 pad layout.
How is polarity identified on the BZT52C27-G package?
Polarity on the BZT52C27-G is indicated by a visible cathode band printed on the SOD-123 body - the banded end corresponds to the cathode terminal. This marking is defined in the MECHANICAL DATA section and verified in the Package Outline Dimensions drawing. The anode is the unmarked end, and correct orientation is essential for proper reverse-bias operation in regulation or clamping circuits.
What is the leakage current specification for the BZT52C27-G at 25.3 V?
The BZT52C27-G specifies a maximum leakage current (IR) of 0.1 µA at VR = 25.3 V, as listed in the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured at TA = 25°C and reflects the device's ability to remain effectively open-circuit below its nominal zener voltage. The BZT52C27-G maintains this performance across its full operating temperature range.
