Product details
Overview
BZT52H-A2V4X from Nexperia is a ±1 % tolerance Zener diode in SOD123F package, providing precise 2.4 V voltage regulation at IZ = 5 mA with 400 Ω differential resistance and ≤0.9 V forward voltage at 10 mA. It delivers stable reference voltage for low-power biasing and overvoltage clamping in consumer power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52H-A2V4X datasheet, BZT52H-A2V4X pinout, BZT52H-A2V4X application, or BZT52H-A2V4X equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±1 %), thermal resistance (150 K/W junction-to-solder-point), non-repetitive surge capability (6.0 A), temperature coefficient (−3.5 to 0.0 mV/K), and SOD123F footprint compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain a stable 2.4 V reference across load variations, with specified test current of 5 mA and maximum differential resistance of 400 Ω ensuring minimal voltage drift under dynamic current conditions.
Its thermal design supports operation up to 150 °C junction temperature, and its SOD123F package provides 150 K/W junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance when mounted on FR4 PCB with 1 cm² cathode pad - critical for sustained power dissipation up to 830 mW at 25 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.37 V to 2.43 V at IZ = 5 mA - tight ±1 % tolerance enables high-accuracy voltage reference generation |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | ≤400 Ω - low impedance ensures minimal output voltage variation under changing load current |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤0.9 V at IF = 10 mA - low conduction loss supports efficient polarity protection and clamping |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 830 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - defines maximum continuous DC power handling on standard FR4 PCB |
| Non-repetitive Peak Reverse Current (IZSM) | 6.0 A for tp = 100 μs - supports transient overvoltage suppression without failure |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −3.5 to 0.0 mV/K at IZ = 5 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius for thermal stability analysis |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤50 μA at VR = 1 V - low leakage preserves battery life in always-on monitoring circuits |
Pinout & Package
SOD123F surface-mount plastic package: 2-terminal, flat lead, small outline (3.6 mm × 1.7 mm × 1.0 mm), cathode marked by bar on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (K) | Cathode | Connected to regulated output node; marking bar identifies this terminal for correct PCB orientation |
| 2 (A) | Anode | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; reverse-biased configuration enables Zener breakdown conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±1 % Zener voltage tolerance | Enables precision reference generation without post-production trimming in voltage monitor ICs and ADC bias networks |
| 830 mW total power dissipation | Supports continuous regulation in space-constrained 3.3 V/5 V supply rails without external heatsinking |

| SOD123F package footprint | Compatible with standard 2.8 mm × 1.6 mm reflow solder land pattern - eliminates need for custom stencil design |
| −65 °C to +150 °C operating range | Validates use in industrial control modules exposed to wide ambient temperature swings |
Applications
| Power Supply Reference | Overvoltage Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Providing stable 2.4 V reference for LDO feedback divider in battery-powered IoT sensor nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode acts as shunt voltage reference, sinking excess current to maintain fixed voltage at feedback node. Use Value: ±1 % tolerance ensures <±12 mV absolute error in 2.4 V reference, meeting 12-bit ADC input scaling requirements. |
Use Scenario: Clamping microcontroller I/O pins against 12 V transients in automotive body control modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt protection device conducting during overvoltage events to limit pin voltage to 2.4 V + VF. Use Value: 6.0 A surge rating absorbs 100 μs transients without degradation, preserving GPIO integrity. |
| Low-Power Bias Generator | Signal-Level Voltage Limiter |
Use Scenario: Generating bias voltage for op-amp input stages in portable medical pulse oximeters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-noise, low-drift DC bias point independent of supply rail fluctuations. Use Value: −3.5 to 0.0 mV/K temperature coefficient minimizes offset drift across 0–70 °C operating range. |
Use Scenario: Limiting analog sensor output swing to protect downstream ADC inputs in HVAC control systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as bidirectional clamp (forward + reverse) to constrain signal amplitude within safe bounds. Use Value: ≤0.9 V forward voltage ensures clamping threshold remains below 3.3 V logic high, preventing latch-up. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZT52C2V4 | ±5 % tolerance, 2.20–2.60 V range, 500 Ω rdif, 50 μA IR at 1 V | Lower accuracy and higher impedance; suitable only for non-critical biasing | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs voltage stability requirements |
| MMSZ4678T1G | ±5 % tolerance, 2.375–2.475 V range, 100 Ω rdif, 100 nA IR at 1 V, SOD-123 package | Lower leakage but wider tolerance; identical footprint but different thermal resistance (210 K/W j-a) | Prefer for ultra-low-power sleep-mode circuits where leakage dominates quiescent current |
Compared with BZT52H-A2V4X, BZT52C2V4 trades precision for cost in non-critical applications, while MMSZ4678T1G offers lower leakage but sacrifices tolerance control - making BZT52H-A2V4X optimal for designs requiring both accuracy and robust surge immunity in compact SMT layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for BZT52H-A2V4X?
The BZT52H-A2V4X has a total power dissipation rating of 830 mW at ambient temperature ≤25 °C when mounted on an FR4 PCB with single-sided copper and a 1 cm² cathode pad. Derating is required above 25 °C ambient per the 150 K/W junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance.
How does the ±1 % tolerance affect circuit accuracy?
The ±1 % tolerance means the actual Zener voltage falls between 2.37 V and 2.43 V at 5 mA test current. This directly limits absolute reference accuracy in feedback networks - for example, introducing up to ±12 mV error in a 2.4 V reference used for 3.3 V LDO regulation.
Can BZT52H-A2V4X be used for bidirectional ESD protection?
No - BZT52H-A2V4X is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias regulation. Its forward voltage is ≤0.9 V, but it lacks symmetric clamping characteristics or specified ESD ratings. Dedicated TVS diodes like PESD5V0S1BA should be used for IEC 61000-4-2 compliant ESD protection.
Is the SOD123F package compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes - Nexperia specifies reflow soldering as the only recommended method for SOD123F. The package supports JEDEC J-STD-020-compliant peak temperatures up to 260 °C, with thermal resistance data validated using standard FR4 footprints (2.8 mm × 1.6 mm solder land).
