Product details
Overview
BZT52H-B47-QX 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, and qualified to AEC-Q101 for automotive voltage regulation and reference applications.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52H-B47-QX datasheet, BZT52H-B47-QX pinout, BZT52H-B47-QX application, or BZT52H-B47-QX equivalent, this device serves as a precision shunt voltage reference in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and ECU biasing networks where stable 47 V regulation under transient load conditions is required.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse-bias breakdown mode with a specified VZ = 46.1 V to 47.9 V at IZ = 2 mA and exhibits a temperature coefficient of +0.05 mV/K, ensuring minimal drift across automotive ambient ranges (−65 °C to +150 °C). Its differential resistance is ≤325 Ω, supporting stable regulation under varying current loads.
The device uses a planar silicon junction structure housed in an SOD123F package with 1.2 mm height and 3.5 mm length, optimized for reflow soldering on FR4 PCBs with single-sided copper and tin plating. Thermal resistance from junction to solder point is 70 K/W, enabling reliable operation at Tj up to 150 °C.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZT52H-C47-Q | ±5 % tolerance (44.0 V–50.0 V), higher max IR (90 μA vs. same), identical package and Ptot | Acceptable where 47 V accuracy is secondary to cost; less suitable for precision feedback loops | Select when budget constraints outweigh regulation tightness requirements in non-critical biasing |
| MMSZ5270B-TP | ±5 % tolerance (44.65 V–49.35 V), SOD-123 package, 500 mW Ptot, not AEC-Q101 qualified | Limited to industrial/commercial use; insufficient power and qualification for automotive ECU deployment | Use only in non-automotive systems where 47 V reference stability and 830 mW capability are not required |
Compared with BZT52H-B47-QX, the ±2 % BZT52H-C47-Q offers looser regulation but same ruggedness, while MMSZ5270B-TP lacks both automotive qualification and power handling-making the original the sole choice for AEC-compliant 47 V reference designs demanding accuracy and thermal margin.

FAQ
What is the maximum Zener test current for BZT52H-B47-QX?
The datasheet specifies VZ measurement at IZ = 2 mA, with absolute maximum non-repetitive peak reverse current IZSM = 0.5 A for 100 μs pulses. Continuous operation must remain within the 830 mW power limit, corresponding to ~17.7 mA at 47 V under ideal thermal conditions.
Does BZT52H-B47-QX support reflow soldering only?
Yes - the official Nexperia documentation states reflow soldering is the only recommended method. The SOD123F package is not qualified for wave or hand soldering due to thermal stress risks; IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D-compliant reflow profiles must be used with peak temperatures ≤260 °C.
How does the ±2 % tolerance affect regulation accuracy in a 47 V feedback loop?
At 47 V nominal, ±2 % tolerance means actual VZ falls between 46.1 V and 47.9 V. In a typical feedback divider, this introduces ≤±0.4 % output voltage error before compensation - acceptable for most automotive 48 V subsystems where downstream LDOs provide final regulation.
Is thermal resistance to ambient (Rth(j-a)) usable for board-level thermal design?
No - the 330 K/W Rth(j-a) value assumes free-air conditions and is not representative of real PCB mounting. For thermal design, use Rth(j-sp) = 70 K/W (junction-to-solder-point) with verified 1 cm² cathode pad copper area, as specified for worst-case derating calculations.
