Product details
Overview
BZV49-C24,115 from Nexperia is a medium-power Zener voltage regulator diode in SOT89 package, designed for precision DC voltage reference and stabilization in power supply rails. It delivers a nominal working voltage of 24 V (min 22.8 V, max 25.6 V) at 5 mA test current, with ±5% tolerance, 25 Ω typical differential resistance, and −1.25 mV/K temperature coefficient. Used in industrial power monitoring circuits requiring stable 24 V regulation under varying load and thermal conditions.
For engineers reviewing the BZV49-C24,115 datasheet, BZV49-C24,115 pinout, BZV49-C24,115 application, or BZV49-C24,115 equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, thermal behavior, SOT89 terminal mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts - all grounded in Nexperia's 2005 product data sheet and post-2017 branding transition documentation.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain a stable reference voltage across its cathode–anode terminals. Its 24 V nominal regulation point is specified at IZtest = 5 mA, with differential resistance of ≤70 Ω (max) and temperature coefficient of −1.25 mV/K (typical), indicating moderate negative drift over temperature.
The device supports non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation up to 40 W for 100 μs pulses and continuous power dissipation of 1 W at Tamb = 25 °C on a 2.5 cm² ceramic substrate. Thermal resistance from junction to tie-point is 15 K/W, enabling effective heat transfer via the exposed collector pad in the SOT89 package.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage (VZ) | 24 V (22.8 V min, 25.6 V max) - defines regulated output rail voltage under 5 mA test current |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | ≤70 Ω (max) - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −1.25 mV/K (typical) - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature |
| Test Current (IZtest) | 5 mA - standardized bias condition for VZ measurement and datasheet compliance |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤0.05 μA at VR = 18.8 V - ensures low leakage in standby or high-impedance sensing paths |
| Non-repetitive Peak Power (PZSM) | 40 W for 100 μs - supports transient surge suppression in input protection stages |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 1 W at Tamb = 25 °C - sets maximum steady-state thermal envelope on standard PCB layout |
Pinout & Package
SOT89 plastic surface-mounted package with three leads and an exposed collector pad for enhanced thermal conduction. Mounting on 2.5 cm² ceramic substrate required for rated 1 W operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Primary forward-current entry point; connected to lower-potential side in Zener regulation configuration |
| 2 | Cathode | Regulated output node; connected to higher-potential rail and load in standard shunt regulator topology |
| 3 | Anode | Second anode terminal tied internally to Pin 1 - enables dual-anode mechanical mounting and thermal path redundancy |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| E24 voltage range coverage | 37 types from 2.4 V to 75 V - enables precise selection across common industrial supply rails without custom design |
| ±5% tolerance series | Tight initial calibration reduces need for external trimming in cost-sensitive applications |
| Exposed thermal pad (Pin 3) | Enables direct thermal coupling to copper pour, lowering Rth(j-a) to 125 K/W with proper PCB layout |
| 1 W continuous power rating | Supports higher-current shunt regulation than standard 400 mW Zeners, reducing need for external pass transistors |
| Low 0.05 μA max reverse leakage at 18.8 V | Minimizes quiescent current draw in battery-backed or low-power monitoring circuits |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ4687-TP (Micro Commercial) | 24 V nominal, SOD-123 package, 500 mW Ptot, 100 Ω max rdif | Limited to lower-power regulation; unsuitable for 1 W continuous duty or high-surge environments | Select when board space is constrained and thermal budget allows derating below 500 mW |
| BZX84-C24 (Nexperia) | 24 V nominal, SOT23 package, 300 mW Ptot, 80 Ω max rdif, no exposed thermal pad | Higher thermal resistance (375 K/W) limits use in thermally demanding industrial enclosures | Select only for low-power signal-level referencing where SOT23 footprint is mandatory |
Compared with MMSZ4687-TP and BZX84-C24, the BZV49-C24,115 offers 3.3× higher continuous power handling, 2.8× lower differential resistance, and integrated thermal pad - making it the sole choice for 24 V shunt regulation in industrial-grade power supplies requiring sustained 1 W operation and robust surge immunity.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for BZV49-C24,115?
The BZV49-C24,115 has a total power dissipation rating of 1 W at Tamb = 25 °C when mounted on a 2.5 cm² ceramic substrate. Derating is required above 25 °C at 8 mW/°C based on Rth(j-a) = 125 K/W. Exceeding this limit risks thermal runaway and permanent junction damage.
How does the dual-anode pin configuration (Pins 1 and 3) function electrically?
Pins 1 and 3 are internally shorted anodes, not independent terminals. This configuration provides mechanical symmetry and dual thermal anchoring points to the PCB, improving solder joint reliability and heat spreading - but electrically functions as a single anode node with no isolation or switching capability between them.
Can BZV49-C24,115 be used in series or parallel configurations for higher voltage or current handling?
No - the BZV49-C24,115 is not characterized for series or parallel operation. Zener matching tolerances and thermal coupling variations cause uneven voltage sharing and current hogging. For higher voltage, select a single higher-VZ part (e.g., BZV49-C30); for higher current, add an external series pass transistor.
What is the significance of the "24Y" marking code on the device body?
"24Y" is the manufacturer's top-side marking for BZV49-C24,115, where "24" denotes the nominal 24 V Zener voltage and "Y" identifies the specific E24 tolerance series within the BZV49 family. This code is laser-etched on the SOT89 package and matches Nexperia's official marking table in the 2005 datasheet.
