Product details
Overview
BZX284-B3V3,115 from NXP Semiconductors is a ±2% tolerance, 3.3 V Zener voltage regulator diode in a SOD110 ceramic SMD package, rated for 400 mW total power dissipation at 25 °C ambient, with 5 μA reverse current at 1 V reverse bias, and designed for low-power precision voltage reference and regulation in space-constrained PCBs.
For engineers reviewing the BZX284-B3V3,115 datasheet, BZX284-B3V3,115 pinout, BZX284-B3V3,115 application, or BZX284-B3V3,115 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal resistance (315 K/W), differential resistance (350–500 Ω), temperature coefficient (−2.4 mV/K), and SOD110 package dimensions - all critical for analog reference design, overvoltage clamping, and bias network stability validation.
Technical Context
The BZX284-B3V3,115 operates as a two-terminal silicon Zener diode optimized for stable reverse-breakdown regulation at nominal 3.3 V with tight ±2% tolerance. Its performance is specified at Tj = 25 °C, with test current IZtest = 5 mA, and exhibits a negative temperature coefficient of −2.4 mV/K - indicating decreasing Zener voltage with rising junction temperature.
It features low dynamic impedance (350–500 Ω at 1 mA; 85–95 Ω at 5 mA), minimal junction capacitance (410 pF at 0 V), and is qualified for operation across −65 °C to +150 °C storage temperature, with maximum junction temperature limited to 150 °C under defined PCB mounting conditions (11 × 25 × 1.6 mm FR4).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 3.23 V to 3.37 V at IZ = 5 mA - ensures precise 3.3 V rail referencing within ±2% tolerance for MCU reset circuits and ADC reference buffers. |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 400 mW at Tamb = 25 °C - supports continuous regulation in low-power sensor nodes without forced cooling. |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 350 Ω at IZ = 1 mA; 85–95 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - determines load regulation error sensitivity; lower rdif improves voltage stability under varying current draw. |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 5 μA at VR = 1 V - defines leakage-induced error in high-impedance bias networks and sets minimum operating current threshold. |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −2.4 mV/K at IZ = 5 mA - quantifies drift magnitude per degree; enables thermal error budgeting in industrial temperature ranges. |
| Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance (Rth j-a) | 315 K/W on standard 11 × 25 × 1.6 mm PCB - dictates allowable power derating above 25 °C ambient; e.g., max 200 mW at 75 °C ambient. |
| Package | SOD110 ceramic SMD - 2.10 × 1.40 × 1.60 mm footprint with cathode marking; enables high-density placement and reflow compatibility. |
Pinout & Package
SOD110 is a 2-terminal surface-mount ceramic package with cathode identified by a mark on the top surface. Terminals are non-polarized in layout but functionally asymmetric: anode (A) and cathode (K) define unidirectional conduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (A) | Forward current entry / Reverse bias return | Connected to lower-potential node in Zener configuration; carries forward current up to 250 mA or reverse leakage current. |
| Cathode (K) | Forward current exit / Zener breakdown terminal | Connected to regulated voltage node; sustains reverse breakdown at 3.3 V; marked on package top surface. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±2% Zener voltage tolerance | Enables accurate 3.3 V reference without post-production trimming in power supply feedback paths and comparator thresholds. |
| Low 5 μA reverse leakage at 1 V | Minimizes quiescent current error in high-impedance voltage divider biasing for op-amp inputs or microcontroller IO protection. |
| 315 K/W thermal resistance on standard PCB | Allows predictable derating curves for thermal design in sealed enclosures or elevated ambient environments. |
| SOD110 ceramic package | Provides stable electrical performance across humidity and temperature cycling, unlike epoxy-packaged alternatives. |
| −2.4 mV/K temperature coefficient | Supports predictable drift compensation in analog front-ends where reference stability over −40 to +85 °C is required. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage regulator diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5226BS-7-F | ±5% tolerance, 3.3 V nominal, SOT-323 package, 350 mW rating, 10 μA IR at 1 V | Higher leakage and looser tolerance reduce accuracy in precision references; smaller SOT-323 footprint may ease layout but lowers thermal mass. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs ±2% tolerance requirement and board space is extremely constrained. |
| BZX384-B3V3,115 | Same ±2% tolerance and 3.3 V rating, but SOD-323 package (2.7 × 1.7 × 1.3 mm), 300 mW Ptot, 350–500 Ω rdif | Slightly lower power rating and different thermal profile (Rth j-a ≈ 350 K/W); identical electrical behavior in regulation function. | Choose when existing SOD-323 land pattern is fixed and thermal margin allows 300 mW operation. |
Compared with BZX284-B3V3,115, MMBZ5226BS-7-F trades precision for cost and size, while BZX384-B3V3,115 offers identical regulation performance in a larger-footprint, higher-thermal-mass package - enabling direct functional substitution where layout permits.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the BZX284-B3V3,115?
The BZX284-B3V3,115 has a nominal Zener voltage of 3.3 V with a guaranteed tolerance of ±2%, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 3.23 V and 3.37 V when tested at 5 mA reverse current and 25 °C junction temperature. This tight tolerance makes the BZX284-B3V3,115 suitable for applications requiring accurate voltage referencing, such as microcontroller reset thresholds and ADC reference stabilization.
What is the maximum power dissipation rating for the BZX284-B3V3,115?
The BZX284-B3V3,115 is rated for a maximum total power dissipation of 400 mW at an ambient temperature of 25 °C when mounted on a standard 11 × 25 × 1.6 mm PCB. Derating is required above 25 °C at a rate determined by its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 315 K/W - for example, maximum allowable power drops to approximately 200 mW at 75 °C ambient. This rating applies under continuous DC conditions, not surge events.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the BZX284-B3V3,115?
The BZX284-B3V3,115 specifies a maximum reverse current (IR) of 5 μA at a reverse voltage (VR) of 1 V and Tj = 25 °C. This low leakage is critical in high-impedance bias networks and precision reference applications, where excess current could introduce significant error. The value is confirmed in Table 1 of the official NXP datasheet and reflects the device's suitability for low-power analog circuits.
What package type does the BZX284-B3V3,115 use, and what are its key dimensions?
The BZX284-B3V3,115 uses the SOD110 ceramic surface-mount package, measuring 2.10 mm × 1.40 mm × 1.60 mm (length × width × height) with a cathode identification mark on the top surface. Its compact size and ceramic construction provide stable electrical performance across temperature and humidity variations, distinguishing it from epoxy-packaged Zener diodes. The SOD110 outline is standardized per NXP document 97-04-14.
How does the temperature coefficient of the BZX284-B3V3,115 affect its performance?
The BZX284-B3V3,115 has a temperature coefficient (SZ) of −2.4 mV/K at IZ = 5 mA, meaning its Zener voltage decreases by approximately 2.4 mV for every 1 K rise in junction temperature. This negative coefficient must be accounted for in thermal error budgets - for instance, over a −40 to +85 °C ambient range, the voltage shift is roughly ±300 mV - making the BZX284-B3V3,115 appropriate for applications where predictable, compensated drift is acceptable or correctable.
