Overview
BZX284-B30,115 from NXP Semiconductors is a ±2% tolerance, 30 V nominal Zener voltage regulator diode in a SOD110 ceramic SMD package, rated for 400 mW total power dissipation at 25 °C ambient, with 35 Ω typical differential resistance at 2 mA test current and 10 mV/K temperature coefficient - used for precision low-power voltage reference and overvoltage clamping in sensor signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX284-B30,115 datasheet, BZX284-B30,115 pinout, BZX284-B30,115 application, or BZX284-B30,115 equivalent, this part serves as a stable, surface-mount Zener reference in space-constrained industrial control modules, automotive body electronics, and portable instrumentation where tight voltage regulation and thermal stability under low-current bias are required.
Technical Context
The BZX284-B30,115 operates as a reverse-biased Zener diode with a nominal breakdown voltage of 30.0 V (min 29.4 V, max 30.6 V) at IZtest = 2 mA, exhibiting 35 Ω typical dynamic impedance and 10 mV/K positive temperature coefficient - optimized for stable regulation across −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range.
It uses a ceramic SOD110 package with 1.9–2.1 mm length, 1.1–1.4 mm width, and 1.6 mm height, achieving 315 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance when mounted on a 11 × 25 × 1.6 mm PCB - enabling reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature with ≤400 mW total power dissipation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage | 30.0 V at IZ = 2 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback loops and reference generation. |
| Voltage Tolerance | ±2% (B-series) - ensures 29.4 V to 30.6 V consistency across production lots without calibration. |
| Differential Resistance | 35 Ω typical at IZ = 2 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation error under varying current. |
| Temperature Coefficient | +10 mV/K at IZ = 2 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius, critical for wide-temperature applications. |
| Total Power Dissipation | 400 mW at Tamb = 25 °C - sets maximum continuous reverse power before thermal runaway risk. |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 50 nA at VR = 0.7 × VZnom = 21 V - confirms low leakage for high-impedance bias networks. |
| Junction Temperature Range | −65 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in under-hood automotive and industrial environments. |
Pinout & Package
SOD110 is a two-terminal ceramic surface-mount package with cathode marked by a band on one end; terminals are non-polarized in function but electrically asymmetric - anode (A) and cathode (K) define unidirectional conduction path.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (A) | Forward conduction terminal | Connected to lower potential side in Zener configuration; carries forward current up to 250 mA. |
| Cathode (K) | Zener breakdown terminal | Connected to higher potential side; sustains regulated reverse voltage up to 30.6 V with controlled leakage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STMicroelectronics BZT52-B30 | Same SOD123 package (2.7 × 1.6 × 1.1 mm), ±2% tolerance, 30 V nominal, but 500 mW Ptot rating and 70 Ω rdif. | Higher power handling suits higher-current bias networks; larger footprint may require layout revision. | Select when >400 mW dissipation or >2 mA operating current is needed; verify thermal pad compatibility. |

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and tolerance of the BZX284-B30,115?
The BZX284-B30,115 has a nominal Zener voltage of 30.0 V with a ±2% tolerance, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 29.4 V and 30.6 V when tested at 2 mA reverse current. This tight tolerance is specified per the B-series designation and confirmed in Table 2 of the NXP datasheet. The BZX284-B30,115 maintains this specification across its qualified operating temperature range.
What package type and dimensions does the BZX284-B30,115 use?
The BZX284-B30,115 uses the SOD110 ceramic surface-mount package, measuring 1.90–2.10 mm in length, 1.10–1.40 mm in width, and 1.6 mm in height, with a cathode band marking. Its thermal resistance is 315 K/W junction-to-ambient when mounted on a standard 11 × 25 × 1.6 mm PCB. The BZX284-B30,115's compact size supports high-density PCB layouts while maintaining ceramic reliability.
What is the maximum power dissipation and thermal limit for the BZX284-B30,115?
The BZX284-B30,115 has a maximum total power dissipation of 400 mW at 25 °C ambient temperature, with absolute maximum junction temperature of +150 °C and storage temperature range of −65 °C to +150 °C. Derating is required above 25 °C per the 315 K/W thermal resistance - for example, at 75 °C ambient, max power drops to ~250 mW. The BZX284-B30,115 must be operated within these limits to ensure long-term reliability.
How does the temperature coefficient affect the BZX284-B30,115's regulation performance?
The BZX284-B30,115 exhibits a +10 mV/K temperature coefficient at 2 mA test current, meaning its Zener voltage increases by approximately 10 mV per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature. This predictable linear drift allows system-level compensation in precision references. The BZX284-B30,115's coefficient is stable across its operating range and documented in Figure 4 of the NXP datasheet for voltages ≥4.7 V.
Can the BZX284-B30,115 be used for overvoltage protection, and what surge capability does it have?
Yes, the BZX284-B30,115 is commonly used for overvoltage clamping due to its sharp Zener knee and defined breakdown characteristics. It supports a non-repetitive peak reverse current of 1.0 A for 100 μs pulses at 25 °C ambient, enabling transient suppression in automotive and industrial systems. The BZX284-B30,115 must be paired with appropriate series impedance to limit average power during repeated surges.
