Product details
Overview
BZT52C8V2-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal 8.2 V zener voltage, 5 mA test current, 15 Ω maximum zener impedance at 5 mA, 0.7 µA maximum reverse leakage at 6.2 V, and ±5% voltage tolerance. It provides precision voltage regulation in low-power analog signal conditioning and power rail clamping circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52C8V2-7-F datasheet, BZT52C8V2-7-F pinout, BZT52C8V2-7-F application, or BZT52C8V2-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy, dynamic impedance at operating current, thermal resistance (338 °C/W), and SOD123 package compatibility with automated PCB assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its planar die construction ensures consistent breakdown characteristics and low leakage across production lots.
The device is rated for 370 mW power dissipation at +25°C ambient and derates linearly above +75°C case temperature, with junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 338 °C/W on FR-4 PCB. It exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +3.2 mV/°C near 8.2 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in bias networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.2 V nominal, 7.7–8.7 V range at 5 mA - defines regulated output voltage window for reference or clamp function |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 15 Ω max at 5 mA - determines output voltage stability under small-signal current variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.7 µA max at 6.2 V - limits error current in high-impedance bias/reference nodes |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 370 mW at +25°C ambient - sets maximum continuous power handling on standard FR-4 layout |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 338 °C/W - quantifies junction temperature rise per watt on typical PCB pad; critical for thermal design margin |
| Temperature Coefficient | +3.2 mV/°C - enables predictable voltage drift correction in temperature-sensitive references |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for BZT52C8V2-7-F at +75°C ambient?
At +75°C ambient, BZT52C8V2-7-F is rated for 500 mW power dissipation per its absolute maximum ratings table. This reflects the device's thermal design margin when mounted on a heatsink or high-copper PCB, distinct from its 370 mW rating at +25°C ambient on standard FR-4.
Does BZT52C8V2-7-F have a specified capacitance value?
No capacitance specification is provided in the official DS18004 datasheet for BZT52C8V2-7-F. The family's typical total capacitance ranges from ~10 pF to 100 pF depending on zener voltage, but no measured or guaranteed value is published for this specific part number.
Can BZT52C8V2-7-F be used in series to achieve higher regulated voltage?
Yes-multiple BZT52C8V2-7-F diodes may be connected in series to sum their zener voltages, provided current-limiting resistors are sized to ensure each device receives ≥5 mA and stays within its 370 mW power limit. Total voltage tolerance accumulates linearly (±5% per device).
Is the SOD123 package of BZT52C8V2-7-F compatible with reflow soldering per J-STD-020?
Yes-the SOD123 package is qualified for moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it can withstand standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C) without baking, provided storage conditions meet humidity requirements prior to assembly.
