Product details
Overview
BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal 2.4 V zener voltage, 5 mA test current, 100 Ω maximum zener impedance at 1 kHz, 300 mW power dissipation, and SOD523 package - used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in low-power analog sensor biasing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F datasheet, BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F pinout, BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F application, or BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±8.3%), temperature coefficient (–3.5 to 0 mV/°C), reverse leakage (≤50 µA at 1.0 V), and thermal resistance (417 °C/W junction-to-ambient).
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference diode, conducting in reverse breakdown when reverse-biased above its specified zener voltage. It delivers stable regulation under 5 mA test current with minimal self-heating due to its 300 mW power rating and 417 °C/W thermal resistance on FR-4 PCB.
The SOD523 package enables compact placement in space-constrained designs while maintaining reliable thermal performance. Its flat-lead construction supports high-power dissipation per unit volume, and the cathode band marking ensures unambiguous polarity identification during automated assembly.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.4 V nominal, 2.2–2.6 V range at 5 mA - defines regulated output voltage with ±8.3% tolerance for reference stability. |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 300 mW - sets maximum continuous reverse power handling before thermal derating begins at +25°C ambient. |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 100 Ω max at 1 kHz - indicates dynamic resistance affecting regulation accuracy under varying load currents. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤50 µA at VR = 1.0 V - determines quiescent current draw in standby protection circuits. |
| Temperature Coefficient | –3.5 to 0 mV/°C - quantifies zener voltage drift across –55°C to +150°C operating range. |
| Package | SOD523 - 1.25 mm × 0.85 mm footprint with 0.6 mm height, optimized for high-density PCB layouts. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ4676T1G | 2.4 V nominal, SOD-123 package (2.7 × 1.6 mm), 500 mW PD, 150 Ω ZZT | Larger footprint; higher power but looser VZ tolerance (±5%) and higher ZZT | Select when board space allows larger package and higher surge power handling is required. |
| BZX584C2V4 | 2.4 V nominal, SOT-23 package (3.0 × 1.4 mm), 300 mW PD, 100 Ω ZZT, ±5% VZ | Three-pin package with unused third pin; same electrical specs but less area-efficient than SOD523 | Choose only if existing SOT-23 footprint reuse is prioritized over miniaturization. |
Compared with MMSZ4676T1G and BZX584C2V4, BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F offers superior board-area efficiency (SOD523 vs. SOD-123/SOT-23), tighter voltage matching to legacy 2.4 V references, and verified AEC-Q200 qualification - making it optimal for next-gen compact automotive and portable electronics.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage this Zener diode can withstand before breakdown?
The BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F has a nominal zener voltage of 2.4 V with a guaranteed breakdown range of 2.2 V to 2.6 V at 5 mA test current. It does not specify a distinct "maximum reverse voltage" beyond this range; operation above 2.6 V at rated current remains within specification, but sustained overvoltage beyond power limits causes thermal failure.
Is this part qualified for automotive use?
Yes - the "Q" suffix denotes automotive qualification. BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F is AEC-Q200 qualified, manufactured in IATF 16949 certified facilities, and PPAP capable. It meets JEDEC reliability standards and is listed in Diodes' official automotive product portfolio.
How does the SOD523 package affect thermal performance?
Mounted on FR-4 with 2 oz copper and 1.92 mm² pad area, the SOD523 achieves 417 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. This allows full 300 mW dissipation only at +25°C ambient; derating is required linearly above that - e.g., ~180 mW at +85°C ambient.
Can this Zener diode be used in place of a TVS for ESD protection?
No - while it provides basic overvoltage clamping, BZT52C2V4TQ-7-F lacks the fast response time and high peak pulse power capability of dedicated TVS diodes. Its 300 mW DC rating and 100 Ω dynamic impedance make it suitable for low-energy transients only, not IEC 61000-4-2 ESD events.
