Product details
Overview
BZV90-C6V2,135 from Nexperia is a medium-power Zener voltage regulator diode in SOT223 package, designed for precision DC voltage reference and regulation at nominal 6.2 V with ±5% tolerance, 6 Ω typical differential resistance, and 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation; used in power supply feedback loops and voltage clamping circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZV90-C6V2,135 datasheet, BZV90-C6V2,135 pinout, BZV90-C6V2,135 application, or BZV90-C6V2,135 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy at 5 mA test current, thermal resistance (83.3 K/W), junction temperature limit (150 °C), and SOT223 thermal pad layout compatibility.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with tightly controlled VZ = 5.8–6.6 V at IZtest = 5 mA, exhibiting low dynamic impedance (6–10 Ω) and a positive temperature coefficient of +0.4 to +2.3 mV/K - enabling stable regulation across industrial temperature ranges.
Its SOT223 package integrates a large copper collector pad for enhanced thermal conduction, supporting continuous power dissipation up to 1500 mW on FR4 PCBs with 2 cm² copper area, and withstands transient surges up to 40 W for 100 μs.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C6V2 | Lower Ptot (300 mW), SOT23 package, higher rdif (10–15 Ω) | Limited to low-power signal-level regulation; unsuitable for >100 mA load currents | Select when board space is constrained and power demand is <100 mW |
| MMSZ5234B | Same VZ range but SOD-123 package, Ptot = 500 mW, rdif = 9 Ω | Lower thermal performance; requires larger copper area to match 1500 mW capability | Select when legacy footprint compatibility with SOD-123 is required |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current rating for BZV90-C6V2,135?
The maximum continuous forward current is 400 mA, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating applies under standard thermal conditions (Tamb = 25 °C, FR4 PCB with 2 cm² copper area) and ensures safe operation in forward-biased configurations such as ESD protection or polarity protection circuits.
Does BZV90-C6V2,135 require a heatsink for 1500 mW operation?
No external heatsink is required: the SOT223 package achieves 1500 mW continuous dissipation using only the internal thermal pad soldered to ≥2 cm² of double-sided FR4 copper. Thermal resistance is 83.3 K/W under these conditions, resulting in ~125 K temperature rise above ambient - within the 150 °C junction limit.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over temperature?
At 6.2 V nominal, the temperature coefficient is +0.4 to +2.3 mV/K. Over a −40 to +125 °C junction range, this causes a total VZ shift of approximately ±120 mV - a ±1.9% deviation. Designers compensate by selecting operating current (IZ) where tempco is minimized, per Fig.5.
Can BZV90-C6V2,135 be used in parallel for higher current capability?
Parallel operation is not recommended due to mismatched Zener voltages and thermal runaway risk. The ±5% VZ tolerance and positive tempco mean the lowest-VZ unit will conduct disproportionately, overheating and failing. Use a single higher-power device or active regulation instead.
