Product details
Overview
BZV55-B39,115 from Nexperia is a low-power Zener voltage regulator diode in a hermetically sealed glass SOD80C surface-mount package, rated for 39 V nominal regulation at 5 mA with ±2 % tolerance, 80 Ω typical differential resistance, and −2.5 mV/K temperature coefficient. It delivers stable reference voltage in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and precision biasing networks for analog sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the BZV55-B39,115 datasheet, BZV55-B39,115 pinout, BZV55-B39,115 application, or BZV55-B39,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 39 V Zener voltage tolerance, 500 mW total power dissipation limit, SOD80C thermal resistance (Rth(j-a) = 380 K/W), non-repetitive surge capability (40 W, 100 µs), and cathode/anode polarity marking per IEC standard.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased silicon Zener diode, maintaining a stable DC output voltage across its terminals when reverse current exceeds the knee threshold. Its regulation relies on avalanche breakdown above ~6 V, confirmed by a positive temperature coefficient slope of −2.5 mV/K at IZ = 5 mA - indicating improved thermal stability versus lower-voltage Zeners.
The SOD80C package enables surface-mount assembly with defined solder land geometry (2.30 mm × 4.30 mm footprint) and thermal path to PCB copper. Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 380 K/W in free air, limiting continuous power handling to 400 mW at Tamb ≤ 50 °C per derating curve.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 38.2 V to 39.8 V at IZ = 5 mA - ensures tight 39 V reference with ±2 % tolerance for precision feedback paths |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 80 Ω typical at IZ = 5 mA - determines load regulation error: ΔVZ ≈ 80 Ω × ΔIZ |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −2.5 mV/K at IZ = 5 mA - quantifies drift: −0.0975 V/°C over 39 °C ambient rise |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 500 mW maximum at Tamb ≤ 50 °C - sets upper bound for steady-state heat generation in PCB layout |
| Non-repetitive Peak Power (PZSM) | 40 W for 100 µs square wave - defines transient overvoltage clamping capability without failure |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 50 nA max at VR = 0.7 × VZ(nom) - ensures minimal quiescent current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.9 V max at IF = 10 mA - relevant for forward-conduction protection or LED driver biasing |
Pinout & Package
Hermetically sealed glass SOD80C package: 3.3–3.7 mm length, 1.45–1.60 mm width, 0.3 mm height; cathode indicated by black band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode | Connected to regulated output node; reverse-bias terminal where Zener breakdown occurs |
| 2 | Anode | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; completes reverse-current path during regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±2 % Zener voltage tolerance | Enables accurate voltage references without post-production trimming in industrial power supplies |
| Low differential resistance (80 Ω typ.) | Minimizes output voltage variation under load current changes up to ±10 mA |
| Hermetic glass SMD package | Provides long-term reliability in humid or chemically aggressive environments vs. plastic packages |
| 40 W non-repetitive surge rating | Clamps ESD transients and line surges without degradation in telecom interface protection |
| −2.5 mV/K temperature coefficient | Reduces thermal drift in temperature-sensitive instrumentation front-ends operating from −40 °C to +125 °C |
Applications
| Power Supply Feedback Regulation | Overvoltage Protection Clamp |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX55C39 | ±5 % tolerance, 90 Ω rdif, same SOD80C package | Lower cost but reduced regulation accuracy and higher dynamic impedance | Select when ±5 % output tolerance is acceptable and cost sensitivity outweighs precision needs |
| MMSZ5240B | ±5 % tolerance, 17 Ω rdif, SOD-123 package, 500 mW rating | Lower impedance improves load regulation but requires different PCB footprint and has higher leakage | Choose for tighter load regulation in space-constrained designs where SOD-123 layout is feasible |
Compared with BZV55-B39,115, BZX55C39 trades regulation accuracy for cost, while MMSZ5240B offers superior dynamic performance in a smaller package but demands revised thermal and layout design due to differing Rth(j-a) and footprint.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current for reliable operation?
The BZV55-B39,115 supports up to 10.3 mA continuous reverse current at 39 V to stay within its 400 mW derated power limit at 50 °C ambient. Exceeding this draws >400 mW, risking thermal runaway unless PCB copper area reduces Rth(j-a) below 380 K/W.
How does the −2.5 mV/K temperature coefficient affect long-term stability?
This coefficient means VZ decreases by 2.5 mV per °C rise in junction temperature. At 100 °C junction temperature (75 °C above 25 °C test point), VZ drops by 187.5 mV - a −0.48 % shift from 39 V - which is fully specified and repeatable, not drift.
Can BZV55-B39,115 replace BZX55C39 in existing designs?
Yes, electrically and mechanically - both use SOD80C, share identical pinout and thermal specs. However, BZV55-B39,115's ±2 % tolerance improves regulation accuracy by 1.5 % absolute versus BZX55C39's ±5 %, requiring no layout change but offering tighter system-level voltage control.
What is the significance of the '115' suffix in the part number?
The '115' denotes the packing method: 10,000 units per reel in 4 mm pitch, 8 mm tape - per Nexperia's ordering code convention. It does not affect electrical characteristics or package dimensions, only logistics and reel configuration.
