Product details
Overview
BZV55-C24,115 from Nexperia is a ±5 % tolerance silicon Zener diode in a hermetically sealed SOD80C glass SMD package, rated for 24 V nominal Zener voltage at 5 mA, with 55 Ω typical differential resistance and 1.25 A non-repetitive peak reverse current. It delivers low-power voltage regulation in space-constrained consumer and industrial power rails.
For engineers reviewing the BZV55-C24,115 datasheet, BZV55-C24,115 pinout, BZV55-C24,115 application, or BZV55-C24,115 equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, thermal behavior under surge conditions, cathode/anode terminal mapping, and validated alternative parts for precision reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable DC voltage across its terminals under varying load and input conditions. Its 24 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZ = 5 mA, with temperature coefficient of +15.9 mV/K and diode capacitance of 55 pF at 1 MHz and 0 V reverse bias.
The device supports transient suppression via 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation (tp = 100 μs), while maintaining total power dissipation ≤500 mW at Tamb ≤50 °C on a ceramic substrate. Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 380 K/W in free air.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 22.8 V to 25.6 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines regulated output voltage range under nominal test current |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 60 Ω (typ) at IZ = 5 mA - determines output voltage stability against load current variation |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | +15.9 mV/K (typ) - quantifies Zener voltage drift per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature |
| Non-repetitive Peak Reverse Current (IZSM) | 1.25 A (max) - maximum surge current it can withstand for 100 μs without damage |
| Reverse Leakage Current (IR) | ≤100 nA at VR = 0.7 × VZ(nom) - ensures minimal quiescent power loss in standby regulation |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 500 mW at Tamb ≤50 °C on ceramic substrate - sets continuous thermal operating limit |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤0.9 V at IF = 10 mA - enables use as low-drop rectifier or clamp in forward bias |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for BZV55-C24,115?
The BZV55-C24,115 has a total power dissipation limit of 500 mW when mounted on a 10 × 10 × 0.6 mm ceramic substrate at ambient temperatures ≤50 °C. At higher ambient temperatures, derating applies per the thermal resistance of 380 K/W in free air.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over temperature?
With a typical temperature coefficient of +15.9 mV/K, the Zener voltage increases by ~15.9 mV per °C rise in junction temperature. Over a 0–75 °C junction range, this yields ~1.2 V drift-requiring thermal design consideration in precision references.
Can BZV55-C24,115 be used in parallel for higher current handling?
No-Zener diodes exhibit manufacturing variations in VZ and rdif, causing current imbalance. Parallel connection risks thermal runaway; external ballast resistors or dedicated current-sharing ICs are required for multi-diode configurations.
What is the significance of the SOD80C package's hermetic sealing?
The hermetic glass seal prevents moisture ingress and oxidation of internal metallization, ensuring long-term Zener voltage stability and reliability in humid or chemically aggressive environments-critical for industrial and outdoor electronics.
