Product details
Overview
BZT52HC47WF-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount 47 V Zener diode in SOD123F package, rated for 375 mW power dissipation on standard FR-4 PCB and 830 mW with enhanced thermal pad, with 90 Ω dynamic impedance at 2 mA, ±5% voltage tolerance (44–50 V), and 0.05 µA reverse leakage at 32.9 V. It provides precision voltage regulation in low-power analog monitoring circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT52HC47WF-7 datasheet, BZT52HC47WF-7 pinout, BZT52HC47WF-7 application, or BZT52HC47WF-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal derating behavior, cathode-band polarity marking, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its 47 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 2 mA test current, with a positive temperature coefficient of +42.0 mV/°C - enabling predictable drift compensation in bias networks.
The device uses a planar silicon junction with cathode-band polarity identification and is optimized for low-profile mounting. Its SOD123F package supports automated placement and offers 150 °C/W thermal resistance when mounted with a 1 cm² cathode pad, enabling reliable operation up to +150 °C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 44.0–50.0 V at IZ = 2 mA - defines usable regulation range for overvoltage clamping or reference generation |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 90 Ω at IZ = 2 mA - determines output voltage stability under small-signal current variation |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 375 mW (FR-4, min pad) / 830 mW (1 cm² cathode pad) - sets maximum continuous operating power before thermal shutdown |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.05 µA at VR = 32.9 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Temperature Coefficient (TC) | +42.0 mV/°C at IZ = 2 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree, critical for temperature-compensated references |
| Capacitance (CT) | 40 pF at f = 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - impacts high-frequency noise filtering and transient response in clamp circuits |
| Package | SOD123F (Type B), 0.015 g weight - enables compact, automated assembly with 1.80 mm width and 3.50 mm length |
Pinout & Package
SOD123F (Type B) is a flat-lead, surface-mount plastic package with cathode band marking on the top surface. The device has two terminals: anode and cathode, with polarity identified by a visible cathode band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal | Connected to lower-potential node in reverse-biased Zener configuration; carries forward current up to 250 mA |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal | Marked with band; connected to higher-potential node during regulation; heat-sinking pad area must be maximized for 830 mW operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including engine control units and body electronics requiring high-reliability discrete components |
| Green compound (halogen/antimony-free) | Meets <900 ppm Br, <900 ppm Cl, <1000 ppm Sb - supports RoHS compliance and end-of-life recycling requirements |
| Low-profile SOD123F package | Height ≤ 1.15 mm - enables use in space-constrained consumer and industrial PCBs without compromising thermal performance |
| Matte tin annealed terminals | Solderable per MIL-STD-202, Method 208 - ensures robust reflow joint integrity and long-term intermetallic stability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5270B-7-F | 47 V nominal, 500 mW PD, SOT-23 package, 100 Ω ZZT at 20 mA | Higher power rating but larger footprint and different thermal profile; requires different PCB layout | Preferred for higher-current regulation where SOT-23 placement is already standardized |
| BZX84-C47 | 47 V nominal, 300 mW PD, SOT-23 package, 90 Ω ZZT at 5 mA, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Lacks automotive qualification and has tighter thermal constraints due to lower power rating | Suitable for cost-sensitive commercial applications where AEC-Q101 is not required |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse voltage this Zener can regulate at?
The BZT52HC47WF-7 regulates continuously within its specified Zener voltage range of 44.0–50.0 V at 2 mA test current. It is not rated for sustained operation above 50.0 V in reverse bias; exceeding this risks irreversible breakdown or parametric shift. Derating is required above +75°C ambient per the power curve in Figure 1.
Does this part support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes - the device features matte tin annealed terminals over copper alloy leadframe and is qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles per JEDEC J-STD-020. Its moisture sensitivity level is rated at Level 1, eliminating bake requirements prior to assembly.
How does the +42.0 mV/°C temperature coefficient affect circuit design?
This positive TC means the Zener voltage increases linearly with junction temperature. In precision references, it must be compensated using negative-TC components (e.g., forward-biased diodes) or calibrated in software. In clamping applications, it ensures predictable voltage rise during thermal stress, avoiding premature triggering.
Can this Zener replace older BZT52C47 parts in existing designs?
Yes - BZT52HC47WF-7 is a direct functional replacement for BZT52C47 with identical Zener voltage, improved thermal performance (830 mW vs. 500 mW), AEC-Q101 qualification, and green packaging. No layout changes are needed, though thermal pad optimization yields full power benefit.
