Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584C27-G3-08 | Same electrical specs but commercial grade (non-AEC-Q101) | Lacks automotive qualification; unsuitable for under-hood or safety-critical modules | Select when cost-sensitive industrial or consumer designs do not require AEC-Q101 validation |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for BZX584C27-HG3-08?
The BZX584C27-HG3-08 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5 %, meaning its nominal 27 V rating falls between 25.1 V and 28.9 V at 2 mA test current. This tolerance is guaranteed per the Vishay datasheet Rev. 1.9 and applies to all units shipped under this ordering code. The BZX584C27-HG3-08 achieves this tight tolerance through laser trimming during final test.
Is BZX584C27-HG3-08 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, BZX584C27-HG3-08 is AEC-Q101 qualified, as indicated by the "HG3" suffix in its part number. This certification covers stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and ESD per JESD47. The BZX584C27-HG3-08 is approved for use in automotive cabin modules, body control units, and non-safety-critical ADAS subsystems.
What is the maximum power dissipation of BZX584C27-HG3-08 on a standard PCB?
The BZX584C27-HG3-08 is rated for 200 mW power dissipation when mounted on an FR-4 board using Vishay's recommended soldering footprint. With a 5 mm × 5 mm copper pad, its rating increases to 300 mW. Derating is required above 25 °C ambient, based on its 600 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. The BZX584C27-HG3-08 must not exceed 150 °C junction temperature under any operating condition.
Does BZX584C27-HG3-08 have a defined cathode marking?
Yes, BZX584C27-HG3-08 uses a cathode band marking on the SOD-523 package, located at one end of the rectangular body. The banded end corresponds to the cathode terminal, while the opposite end is the anode. This marking is visible under 20× magnification and aligns with JEDEC standard SOD-523 orientation. The BZX584C27-HG3-08 cathode band matches the polarity convention used across Vishay's Zener diode portfolio.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for BZX584C27-HG3-08?
The BZX584C27-HG3-08 specifies a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.05 μA at VR = 20.3 V (75 % of nominal Zener voltage), measured at 25 °C ambient. This ultra-low leakage supports high-impedance bias networks and precision reference dividers. The BZX584C27-HG3-08 maintains leakage below 1 μA up to 25.1 V, ensuring stable operation near knee voltage.
