Product details
Overview
BZX284-C33,115 from NXP Semiconductors is a ±5% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode in a SOD110 ceramic SMD package, rated for 33 V nominal working voltage at IZtest = 2 mA, 400 mW total power dissipation, and 30 Ω typical differential resistance at test current. It serves as a precision low-power voltage reference in power supply feedback paths, overvoltage clamping circuits, and analog signal conditioning stages.
For engineers reviewing the BZX284-C33,115 datasheet, BZX284-C33,115 pinout, BZX284-C33,115 application, or BZX284-C33,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include its ±5% voltage tolerance, 30 Ω dynamic impedance at 2 mA, −11 mV/K temperature coefficient, 60 pF junction capacitance at 0 V, and suitability for space-constrained SMD designs requiring stable regulation below 400 mW.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased Zener diode with a nominal breakdown voltage of 33 V, specified under IZtest = 2 mA and Tj = 25 °C. Its differential resistance of 30 Ω (typ) and temperature coefficient of −11 mV/K (typ) are measured at that same test condition, enabling predictable regulation behavior across ambient temperatures from −65 °C to +150 °C.
The SOD110 package provides mechanical robustness and thermal performance with Rth j-a = 315 K/W when mounted on a 11 × 25 × 1.6 mm PCB. Its 60 pF junction capacitance at f = 1 MHz and VR = 0 V supports stable operation in low-frequency regulation and clamping applications without high-frequency instability.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage regulator diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5262B-7-F | 33 V nominal, ±5%, 200 mW rating, SOT-23 package, 70 Ω max rdiff | Lower power rating and higher dynamic impedance limit use in higher-current regulation | Select when footprint compatibility with SOT-23 is required and power demand stays below 200 mW |
| BZX84-C33 | 33 V nominal, ±5%, 300 mW rating, SOT-23 package, 35 Ω typ rdiff, −11 mV/K SZ | Same voltage and tempco but lower power and different package thermal profile | Choose for legacy SOT-23 assembly lines where SOD110 rework is impractical |
Compared with BZX284-C33,115, MMBZ5262B-7-F offers smaller footprint but reduced power handling and higher impedance, while BZX84-C33 matches voltage and tempco closely but trades 100 mW lower dissipation and less favorable thermal resistance for SOT-23 manufacturability.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and test condition for BZX284-C33,115?
The BZX284-C33,115 has a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V, specified at a test current of 2 mA and junction temperature of 25 °C. This value falls within the guaranteed range of 31.0 V to 35.0 V due to its ±5% tolerance. The 2 mA test condition aligns with standard Zener characterization practices for mid-voltage devices in the BZX284-C series, ensuring repeatable measurement across production lots.
What package type and dimensions does BZX284-C33,115 use?
BZX284-C33,115 uses the SOD110 very small ceramic SMD package with dimensions of 2.10 mm × 1.40 mm × 1.60 mm (L × W × H). It features a cathode identifier mark on the top surface and is optimized for high-reliability, low-profile mounting on printed-circuit boards. The package supports thermal resistance of 315 K/W when mounted on a standard 11 × 25 × 1.6 mm test board.
How does the temperature coefficient of BZX284-C33,115 affect circuit performance?
The BZX284-C33,115 exhibits a typical temperature coefficient of −11 mV/K at IZtest = 2 mA, meaning its Zener voltage decreases by approximately 11 mV per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature. This negative drift must be accounted for in precision reference designs; however, it enables predictable compensation when paired with positive-drift components in bandgap-like configurations.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for BZX284-C33,115 at rated voltage?
At VR = 0.7 × VZnom = 23.1 V, the BZX284-C33,115 guarantees a maximum reverse leakage current of 50 nA. This low leakage supports high-impedance node stabilization and minimizes standby power loss in battery-operated or energy-sensitive applications where even nanoamp-level currents impact system efficiency.
Can BZX284-C33,115 be used in place of higher-power Zener diodes?
No - BZX284-C33,115 is rated for 400 mW total power dissipation at 25 °C ambient and requires thermal derating above that temperature. Substituting it for higher-power Zeners (e.g., DO-41 or SOD-123 devices rated >500 mW) risks thermal runaway or premature failure under identical load conditions. Always verify power dissipation using P = VZ × IZ and compare against the BZX284-C33,115's derated curve.
