Product details
Overview
BZX585B43 RSG from Taiwan Semiconductor is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 43 V, ±2% tolerance, 200 mW power dissipation, and SOD-523F package. It provides precise voltage regulation in low-power signal conditioning, reference, and protection circuits across consumer and industrial electronics.
For engineers reviewing the BZX585B43 RSG datasheet, BZX585B43 RSG pinout, BZX585B43 RSG application, or BZX585B43 RSG equivalent, key selection factors include its 43 V zener voltage at 2 mA test current, 353 Ω max zener impedance, 0.045 μA max reverse leakage at 10 V, and MSL1 moisture sensitivity rating for reflow compatibility.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its 2% voltage tolerance and low dynamic impedance (≤353 Ω at IZT = 2 mA) support high-accuracy biasing and reference functions in analog front-ends and sensor interfaces.
Designed for surface-mount assembly, the device meets halogen-free (IEC 61249-2-21), RoHS, and WEEE requirements, with guaranteed solderability at 260°C/10s and operating junction temperature up to +150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 43 V nominal, 42.14–43.86 V range at 2 mA - enables precise 43 V reference or clamping |
| Power Dissipation | 200 mW - supports low-power regulation without heatsinking |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | ≤353 Ω at 2 mA - ensures minimal voltage shift under load variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.045 μA at 10 V - maintains high impedance in off-state for low quiescent current |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 680 °C/W - defines junction-to-ambient thermal path for ambient temperature derating |
| Moisture Sensitivity Level | MSL1 - allows unlimited floor life and standard reflow without baking |
| Operating Temperature | −65°C to +150°C - suitable for extended industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
Pinout & Package

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of BZX585B43 RSG?
The BZX585B43 RSG has a ±2% zener voltage tolerance, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 42.14 V and 43.86 V when tested at 2 mA. This tight tolerance makes the BZX585B43 RSG suitable for applications demanding high voltage accuracy, such as precision reference circuits and calibrated sensor biasing networks.
What is the maximum power dissipation rating for BZX585B43 RSG?
The BZX585B43 RSG is rated for 200 mW maximum power dissipation at 25°C ambient temperature. Derating is required above 25°C per the published power vs. ambient temperature curve, with full derating to zero at +150°C junction temperature. This rating defines safe continuous operation in low-power regulation and clamping roles.
Is BZX585B43 RSG compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the BZX585B43 RSG is qualified for high-temperature lead-free reflow with guaranteed performance at 260°C for 10 seconds. Its MSL1 rating means it can be stored indefinitely before assembly without baking, simplifying manufacturing logistics and ensuring robust solder joint integrity in modern SMT lines.
What does the 'RSG' suffix indicate in BZX585B43 RSG?
The 'RSG' suffix in BZX585B43 RSG denotes green compound packaging (RoHS-compliant, halogen-free epoxy) and tape-and-reel packaging (7-inch reel, 8,000 units per reel). This distinguishes it from variants with different packaging or material specifications, and confirms full compliance with environmental directives including EU RoHS 2011/65/EU.
How does the zener impedance of BZX585B43 RSG affect circuit performance?
The BZX585B43 RSG has a maximum zener impedance of 353 Ω at 2 mA test current. Lower impedance improves regulation stability under varying load currents - for example, a 1 mA change in zener current causes ≤353 mV output shift. This behavior is critical in reference circuits where minimal voltage droop or ripple is required.
