Product details
Overview
BZT52H-B47,115 from Nexperia is a ±2 % tolerance Zener diode in SOD123F package, rated for 47 V nominal breakdown voltage at IZ = 2 mA, 830 mW total power dissipation at Tamb ≤ 25 °C, and designed for precision voltage regulation in low-power analog reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52H-B47,115 datasheet, BZT52H-B47,115 pinout, BZT52H-B47,115 application, or BZT52H-B47,115 equivalent, this device serves as a stable, surface-mount voltage reference with verified thermal resistance (Rth(j-sp) = 150 K/W), low differential resistance (325 Ω max), and controlled temperature coefficient (±0.05 mV/K) - critical for industrial sensor biasing and power supply feedback networks.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse-biased avalanche mode to maintain a stable 47 V reference across its terminals under regulated current conditions. Its design targets low-current applications (IZ = 2 mA typical), with guaranteed reverse current < 90 μA at VR = 37.6 V and non-repetitive peak reverse current of 0.5 A for 100 μs pulses.
The SOD123F package enables compact PCB layout while delivering defined thermal performance: Rth(j-a) = 330 K/W in free air and Rth(j-sp) = 150 K/W to solder point on FR4 with tin-plated copper. Its cathode-anode polarity is marked by a bar on the device body, aligning with standardized SMD orientation practices.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Breakdown Voltage (VZ) | 46.1 V to 47.9 V at IZ = 2 mA - ensures tight regulation window for 47 V reference designs |
| Tolerance | ±2 % - supports mid-precision applications where cost and accuracy are balanced |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 830 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - defines maximum continuous DC power handling on standard FR4 PCB |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | ≤ 325 Ω at IZ = 2 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤ 90 μA at VR = 37.6 V - confirms low leakage below knee voltage, critical for standby power integrity |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | ±0.05 mV/K - enables predictable drift compensation in temperature-stable references |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤ 0.9 V at IF = 10 mA - defines conduction loss when used in forward-biased clamp or ESD path |
Pinout & Package
SOD123F is a 2-pin surface-mount plastic package measuring 3.6 mm × 1.7 mm × 1.0 mm (L × W × H), with gull-wing leads and cathode-marked body. Mounting requires reflow only; footprint uses 2.8 mm × 1.2 mm solder lands per pad with 1.1 mm spacing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to regulated output node; marking bar identifies this terminal for correct PCB orientation |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; reverse-bias current flows from cathode to anode during regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Stable 47 V reference | Guaranteed 46.1–47.9 V at 2 mA enables accurate feedback in 48 V system monitors |
| Low thermal resistance | Rth(j-sp) = 150 K/W allows reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature on standard PCB |
| Controlled leakage | IR ≤ 90 μA at 80 % VZ minimizes quiescent current in battery-backed voltage supervisors |
| Robust surge capability | 0.5 A non-repetitive peak reverse current (100 μs) supports transient overvoltage clamping |
| Standardized marking | "EA" code per Table 4 confirms BZT52H-B47 identity on device body for traceability and assembly verification |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZT52H-C47 | ±5 % tolerance (44–50 V range); higher max IR (100 μA at VR = 37.6 V) | Acceptable where cost priority outweighs regulation precision; less suitable for RTD biasing | Select for cost-sensitive industrial controls where 47 V ±5 % meets functional safety margin |
| MMSZ5275B-TP | ±5 % tolerance; SOD-123 package (not SOD123F); Ptot = 500 mW; rdif = 500 Ω | Lower power and higher impedance limit use in high-accuracy feedback loops | Choose only if legacy board reuse requires identical footprint but tolerates reduced regulation stability |
Compared with BZT52H-C47 and MMSZ5275B-TP, BZT52H-B47,115 delivers tighter voltage control (±2 % vs. ±5 %), lower dynamic impedance (325 Ω vs. ≥500 Ω), and higher power headroom (830 mW vs. 500 mW), making it optimal for precision analog sensing and regulated power feedback where stability and thermal margin are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current for BZT52H-B47,115 at 25 °C ambient?
The device is rated for continuous operation at up to 250 mA forward current, but as a Zener regulator, its reverse (Zener) current is limited by power dissipation. At Tamb = 25 °C, maximum steady-state Zener current is 17.6 mA (830 mW ÷ 47 V), assuming ideal heat sinking. Derating applies above 25 °C per the thermal resistance curve.
Can BZT52H-B47,115 be used in automotive applications?
No - this part is explicitly non-automotive qualified per Nexperia's revision history (Rev. 7, Jan 2023). It lacks AEC-Q200 stress testing and automotive-grade screening. For automotive use, Nexperia offers separate -Q qualified variants (e.g., BZT52H-B47,115-Q), which must be specified and sourced independently.
How does the SOD123F package differ from standard SOD-123 in thermal performance?
SOD123F features a flat lead profile with enhanced thermal pad contact area versus traditional gull-wing SOD-123. This yields Rth(j-sp) = 150 K/W (vs. ~200 K/W typical for SOD-123), improving power handling by ~25 % under identical PCB layout. The flat leads also reduce tombstoning risk during reflow.
What is the significance of the "EA" marking on the device body?
"EA" is the manufacturer-assigned marking code for BZT52H-B47 per Table 4 of the datasheet. It uniquely identifies the 47 V, ±2 % variant within the BZT52H series and confirms compliance with the specified electrical parameters - essential for post-solder inspection and counterfeit detection.
