Product details
Overview
BZT52HC11WF-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 11.0 V (min 10.4 V, max 11.6 V), 5 mA test current, 10 Ω maximum zener impedance at IZT, and ±0.1 µA maximum reverse leakage at 8 V. It operates in SOD123F package and is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive power rail regulation and voltage reference applications.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52HC11WF-7 datasheet, BZT52HC11WF-7 pinout, BZT52HC11WF-7 application, or BZT52HC11WF-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±5.0%), low thermal resistance (150 °C/W with 1 cm² cathode pad), temperature coefficient (+5.4 to +9.0 mV/°C), and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood electronics.
Technical Context
This Zener diode provides precise voltage regulation via controlled reverse-breakdown conduction. Its 11.0 V nominal zener voltage is specified at 5 mA test current, with tight 10.4–11.6 V range and low dynamic impedance (10 Ω) ensuring stable clamping under varying load conditions.
The device uses a planar epitaxial construction in SOD123F package with matte tin–annealed copper alloy leadframe. Thermal performance is defined for two mounting conditions: 330 °C/W on minimal FR-4 pad and 150 °C/W with 1 cm² cathode thermal pad - critical for sustained 375 mW (derated) or 830 mW (enhanced layout) operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 10.4–11.6 V @ IZT = 5 mA - ensures ±5.0% regulation window for 11 V reference designs |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 10 Ω max @ 5 mA - enables low-voltage deviation under transient current changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA max @ VR = 8 V - guarantees minimal quiescent current in standby circuits |
| Power Dissipation | 830 mW with 1 cm² cathode pad - supports higher continuous clamping in thermally optimized layouts |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 150 °C/W with enhanced pad - allows operation up to +150 °C ambient when properly mounted |
| Temperature Coefficient | +5.4 to +9.0 mV/°C @ 5 mA - positive drift enables predictable compensation in temp-stable references |
| Capacitance (CT) | 85 pF max @ f = 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - limits high-frequency noise coupling in analog signal paths |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD123F (Type B), flat-lead surface-mount package with cathode band marking; dimensions: L = 0.35–0.85 mm, D = 1.70–1.90 mm, E = 2.60–2.80 mm, He = 3.30–3.70 mm, weight ≈ 0.015 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference ground | Connected to lower-potential node; defines breakdown polarity and grounding reference point |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / regulated output node | Marked with band; connects to supply rail being clamped or referenced; carries full zener current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD per AEC standard |
| Green compound packaging | Halogen- and antimony-free molding compound (Br+Cl <1500 ppm, Sb <1000 ppm) meeting RoHS 2 |
| Low-profile SOD123F | Height ≤0.85 mm enables use in space-constrained PCBs while maintaining 830 mW thermal capability |
| Cathode-band polarity marking | Unambiguous visual identification reduces assembly errors in automated pick-and-place and manual rework |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Voltage clamping of LIN bus transceiver supply rails exposed to load dump transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener clamp protecting 12 V rail from >20 V spikes during alternator regulation failure. Use Value: 11 V breakdown with 10 Ω impedance limits peak clamped voltage to ≤12.5 V at 100 mA surge, preserving transceiver integrity. |
Use Scenario: Precision 11 V reference for 16-bit ADC front-end in pressure sensor module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stable shunt reference providing excitation and scaling voltage for ratiometric measurement. Use Value: ±5.0% VZ tolerance and +5.4–+9.0 mV/°C TC enable <0.1% full-scale error over −40 to +125 °C. |
| Consumer Power Adapter Feedback | Medical Infusion Pump Power Monitoring |
Use Scenario: Secondary-side voltage sensing in flyback converter feedback loop for constant-voltage regulation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener reference feeding optocoupler LED to close isolation barrier control loop. Use Value: Low 0.1 µA leakage at 8 V minimizes bias current error, improving regulation accuracy to ±1.5% across line/load. |
Use Scenario: Overvoltage detection on 12 V main battery input before DC-DC conversion to logic rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fail-safe clamp triggering shutdown circuit if input exceeds safe threshold. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification ensures long-term stability in safety-critical medical environments with 150 °C max operating temperature. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ5242BT1G | 12 V nominal (11.4–12.7 V), 90 Ω ZZT, SOD-123 package, no AEC-Q101 rating | Higher voltage tolerance (±5.3%) and higher impedance reduce regulation precision in reference circuits | Select only for non-automotive cost-sensitive applications where 12 V nominal is acceptable |
| BZX84-C11 | 11 V nominal (10.4–11.6 V), 20 Ω ZZT, SOT-23 package, AEC-Q101 qualified | SOT-23 footprint requires different layout; higher 20 Ω impedance increases voltage droop under load | Prefer when board space permits SOT-23 and thermal derating margin is available |
Compared with MMSZ5242BT1G and BZX84-C11, BZT52HC11WF-7 delivers superior regulation stability (10 Ω vs. 20–90 Ω ZZT) and automotive-grade reliability in the lowest-profile SOD123F package, making it optimal for space- and performance-constrained 11 V reference and clamp roles.

FAQ
What is the maximum power dissipation of BZT52HC11WF-7 under standard PCB mounting?
BZT52HC11WF-7 delivers 375 mW maximum power dissipation when mounted on an FR-4 PCB using Diodes Incorporated's minimum recommended pad layout. This rating assumes RθJA = 330 °C/W and ambient temperature ≤ +75 °C per derating curve in DS36891 Rev. 4-2.
Does BZT52HC11WF-7 have a specified forward voltage?
Yes - forward voltage is specified as 0.9 V maximum at 10 mA forward current (IF). This value reflects typical silicon diode conduction behavior and is relevant for reverse-polarity protection or dual-use configurations where forward conduction may occur.
How is polarity identified on the BZT52HC11WF-7 package?
Polarity is marked by a visible cathode band on the SOD123F package body. The banded end corresponds to the cathode terminal; the unmarked end is the anode. This marking aligns with JEDEC-standard orientation and is verified in the mechanical drawings of DS36891.
Is BZT52HC11WF-7 suitable for use in life support equipment?
No - Diodes Incorporated explicitly states that its products, including BZT52HC11WF-7, are not authorized for use in life support devices or systems without express written approval from the CEO. This part lacks the specific validation required for such safety-critical applications.
