Product details
Overview
BZT585B36T-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a precision surface-mount Zener diode with nominal 36 V breakdown voltage (35.28–36.72 V at 2 mA), ±2.0% tolerance, 90 Ω dynamic impedance at 1 kHz, and 42.4 mV/°C temperature coefficient. It operates from −65 °C to +150 °C, dissipates up to 350 mW on FR-4 PCB, and serves as a stable voltage reference in power supply feedback loops and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZT585B36T-7 datasheet, BZT585B36T-7 pinout, BZT585B36T-7 application, or BZT585B36T-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, low thermal drift, SOD523 package compatibility with high-density layouts, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference where reverse-biased operation establishes a stable Zener voltage across its terminals. Its 36 V nominal rating targets mid-range regulation needs-higher than standard logic-supply references but lower than industrial bus protection thresholds.
The SOD523 package enables compact placement while maintaining 357 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. With 0.05 µA maximum reverse leakage at 25.2 V and 45 pF capacitance at 0 V, it supports stable DC referencing without significant AC loading in feedback networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 36 V nominal, 35.28–36.72 V range at 2 mA - ensures tight regulation in 3.3 V or 5 V supply-derived bias rails |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 90 Ω at 1 kHz - minimizes output voltage variation under load transients in closed-loop regulators |
| Temperature Coefficient (TC) | +42.4 mV/°C - predictable positive drift allows compensation in temperature-sensitive references |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 350 mW - supports continuous operation in space-constrained PCBs with minimal heatsinking |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.05 µA max at 25.2 V - prevents parasitic current draw in battery-backed or ultra-low-power monitoring circuits |
| Capacitance (CT) | 45 pF at 1 MHz, 0 V - avoids signal coupling or phase shift in high-frequency feedback paths |
| Package | SOD523 - 1.6 × 0.8 mm footprint ideal for portable electronics and automotive control modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ5247BT1G | 36 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 100 Ω ZZT, SOD-123 package (2.7 × 1.4 mm) | Larger footprint; higher impedance reduces regulation accuracy under load variation | Select when board space permits larger package and tighter voltage tolerance is not required |
| BZX84-C36 | 36 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 90 Ω ZZT, SOT-23 package (3.0 × 1.4 mm) | Higher thermal resistance (450 °C/W); requires larger copper area for same power dissipation | Choose for legacy designs using SOT-23 footprints where AEC-Q101 is not mandated |
Compared with MMSZ5247BT1G and BZX84-C36, BZT585B36T-7 delivers superior voltage accuracy and smaller footprint, making it optimal for next-generation automotive and portable medical devices where space and precision are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage that can be continuously applied to BZT585B36T-7 without exceeding its power rating?
At 25 °C ambient, the device may sustain up to 36 V reverse bias at 9.7 mA (350 mW ÷ 36 V) before exceeding its 350 mW power dissipation limit. Derating applies above 25 °C per the 357 °C/W thermal resistance curve; at 85 °C ambient, maximum continuous current drops to approximately 6.2 mA.
Does BZT585B36T-7 require external series resistance in typical Zener regulator configurations?
Yes-external current-limiting resistance is mandatory to set the Zener test current (2 mA specified) and prevent thermal runaway. For a 48 V input regulating to 36 V, a 6.2 kΩ resistor delivers ~2 mA, aligning with the device's specified ZZT and TC parameters.
How does the +42.4 mV/°C temperature coefficient affect long-term voltage reference stability?
The positive TC causes the Zener voltage to rise ~0.85 V over a 20 °C temperature span (e.g., 25 °C to 45 °C). In precision applications, this drift must be compensated via circuit design (e.g., combining with negative-TC components) or calibrated out in firmware.
Can BZT585B36T-7 be used in bidirectional ESD protection configurations?
No-it is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias voltage regulation. For bidirectional ESD clamping, purpose-built TVS diodes such as D3V3M1U2SOT-7A (3.3 V, ±15 kV contact) are required; BZT585B36T-7 lacks symmetric breakdown characteristics and specified ESD ratings.
