Product details
Overview
BZX284-C30,115 from NXP Semiconductors is a ±5% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode in a SOD110 ceramic SMD package, rated for 30 V nominal working voltage at 2 mA test current, 400 mW total power dissipation, and 1.0 A non-repetitive peak reverse surge current - used for precision low-power voltage reference and overvoltage clamping in space-constrained analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX284-C30,115 datasheet, BZX284-C30,115 pinout, BZX284-C30,115 application, or BZX284-C30,115 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal resistance (315 K/W), differential resistance (35 Ω typ. at 2 mA), temperature coefficient (+10 mV/K), and packaging details specific to the BZX284-C30,115 variant - critical for stable biasing and regulation in industrial sensor interfaces and power supply feedback paths.
Technical Context
The BZX284-C30,115 operates as a two-terminal silicon Zener diode optimized for stable reverse-bias breakdown regulation. Its 30 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZtest = 2 mA with ±5% tolerance, and exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +10 mV/K - enabling predictable drift compensation in temperature-sensitive references.
Designed for surface-mount use in the SOD110 package (1.9 × 1.4 × 0.9 mm), it delivers 400 mW power handling at Tamb = 25 °C on a standard PCB, with junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 315 K/W and maximum junction temperature of 150 °C - supporting reliable operation in compact, thermally unmanaged environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 29.4 V to 30.6 V at IZ = 2 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback networks and reference rails. |
| Tolerance | ±5% - enables cost-effective selection where tight voltage accuracy is not required. |
| Differential Resistance (rdiff) | 35 Ω typical at IZ = 2 mA - determines load regulation error under varying current conditions. |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | +10 mV/K at IZ = 2 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius for thermal design margining. |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 400 mW at Tamb = 25 °C - sets maximum continuous power handling before thermal derating applies. |
| Non-repetitive Peak Reverse Current (IZSM) | 1.0 A at tp = 100 μs - supports transient overvoltage suppression without device failure. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −65 °C to +150 °C - defines operational and storage thermal envelope for industrial deployment. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage regulator diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STMicroelectronics BZT52-C30 | Same 30 V ±5% rating and SOD-123 package; 500 mW Ptot, 40 Ω rdiff, +11 mV/K SZ | Higher power rating suits higher-current bias networks; slightly higher dynamic impedance affects regulation precision. | Select when board layout allows SOD-123 footprint and >400 mW headroom is needed for extended thermal margin. |
| Vishay BZX84-C30 | 30 V ±5%, SOT-23 package; 300 mW Ptot, 50 Ω rdiff, +9 mV/K SZ; 200 nA IR at 21 V | Smaller SOT-23 footprint but lower power and higher leakage; less suitable for sustained 2 mA regulation loads. | Prefer for ultra-dense designs where 300 mW suffices and SOT-23 reflow compatibility is prioritized over long-term stability. |
Compared with BZX284-C30,115, the BZT52-C30 offers higher power margin but requires PCB pad revision, while the BZX84-C30 reduces board area at the cost of thermal derating and reduced surge capability - making BZX284-C30,115 optimal for space-constrained yet thermally stable 30 V reference applications.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the BZX284-C30,115?
The BZX284-C30,115 has a ±5% tolerance on its nominal 30 V Zener voltage, meaning the actual breakdown voltage falls between 29.4 V and 30.6 V when tested at 2 mA. This tolerance is confirmed in Table 2 of the NXP datasheet and applies specifically to the 'C' series variants like BZX284-C30,115 - distinguishing it from the tighter ±2% 'B' series.
What package type does the BZX284-C30,115 use?
The BZX284-C30,115 uses the SOD110 package: a very small ceramic rectangular surface-mount device measuring 1.90 mm × 1.40 mm × 0.90 mm, with cathode identification via a band on the top surface. This package is explicitly defined in the "PACKAGE OUTLINE" section of the NXP datasheet and is distinct from SOD-123 or SOT-23 footprints.
What is the maximum non-repetitive peak reverse current for the BZX284-C30,115?
The BZX284-C30,115 supports a non-repetitive peak reverse current (IZSM) of 1.0 A for pulse widths of 100 μs at ambient temperature of 25 °C, as specified in Table 2 of the NXP datasheet. This value is validated for the entire BZX284-C27 to C75 range, including BZX284-C30,115, and reflects its capability for transient overvoltage suppression.
How does the temperature coefficient of the BZX284-C30,115 affect its regulation stability?
The BZX284-C30,115 has a temperature coefficient (SZ) of +10 mV/K at IZ = 2 mA, meaning its Zener voltage increases by approximately 10 mV per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature. This positive drift is documented in Table 2 and enables predictable thermal compensation in reference circuits where ambient variation must be accounted for.
Can the BZX284-C30,115 be used in place of the BZX284-B30 variant?
No - the BZX284-C30,115 and BZX284-B30 are not interchangeable without design review. While both regulate near 30 V, the BZX284-B30 has ±2% tolerance (29.4–30.6 V same numeric range but tighter distribution) and different test conditions (IZtest = 5 mA vs. 2 mA), differential resistance (25 Ω vs. 35 Ω), and temperature coefficient (not specified for B30 in same table). Substitution may impact regulation accuracy and thermal behavior in precision circuits.
