Product details
Overview
BZX585-B4V3,135 from Nexperia is a ±2 % tolerance Zener diode in SOD523 (SC-79) package, rated for 4.3 V nominal Zener voltage at 5 mA, 300 mW total power dissipation, and 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power. It delivers low differential resistance (410 Ω typ. at 5 mA) and operates across −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature for precision voltage reference and regulation in space-constrained consumer and industrial power rails.
For engineers reviewing the BZX585-B4V3,135 datasheet, BZX585-B4V3,135 pinout, BZX585-B4V3,135 application, or BZX585-B4V3,135 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (65 K/W junction-to-solder-point), cathode-marked SOD523 footprint compatibility, and pulse surge capability (100 µs, 40 W).
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with tightly controlled VZ = 4.21–4.39 V at IZ = 5 mA and exhibits a negative temperature coefficient of −3.5 to −1.7 mV/K over 25–150 °C. Its low rdiff (410 Ω typ.) ensures stable regulation under varying load currents.
Designed for surface-mount applications requiring minimal board area, it uses an ultra-small SOD523 package with 0.34 mm lead pitch and cathode band marking. Thermal performance relies on solder-point conduction (Rth(j-sp) = 65 K/W) rather than ambient convection (Rth(j-a) = 350 K/W).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.21–4.39 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise regulation threshold for 3.3 V/5 V rail clamping |
| Tolerance | ±2 % - enables tighter output voltage control vs. ±5 % variants in feedback loops |
| Differential Resistance | 410 Ω typical at 5 mA - minimizes output voltage shift under load current variation |
| Total Power Dissipation | 300 mW at Tamb = 25 °C on FR4 PCB with 35 mm² copper - sets continuous DC bias limit |
| Non-repetitive Peak Power | 40 W for 100 µs square wave - supports transient overvoltage suppression without failure |
| Junction Temperature Range | −65 °C to +150 °C - qualifies for extended industrial and automotive-adjacent environments |
| Forward Voltage | 1.1 V max at IF = 100 mA - defines forward conduction loss during polarity-reversal protection |

Applications
| USB Port Overvoltage Protection | Microcontroller Reset Circuit |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Clamps 5 V USB supply rail during hot-plug transients or adapter overvoltage events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode acts as shunt regulator, diverting excess current when VIN exceeds 4.39 V. Use Value: Prevents damage to downstream 3.3 V logic by limiting rail excursion to ≤4.4 V with <100 ns response. |
Use Scenario: Generates clean reset signal for ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers during power-up sequencing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides stable 4.3 V reference to RC-based reset generator IC input. Use Value: Ensures reset assertion remains active until VDD stabilizes above 4.21 V, eliminating brown-out glitches. |
| IoT Sensor Bias Reference | Industrial Analog Front-End Clamp |
Use Scenario: Supplies stable bias voltage to MEMS pressure sensor analog conditioning circuitry. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Functions as low-noise voltage reference in 2.8–3.6 V battery-powered sensor nodes. Use Value: Delivers <±2 % drift over −40–+85 °C ambient, enabling sub-0.5 % full-scale measurement accuracy. |
Use Scenario: Limits input voltage to 12-bit SAR ADC driver stage in PLC analog input modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt clamp protecting op-amp inputs against field-wiring faults up to ±40 V. Use Value: Absorbs 40 W surges without degradation, maintaining signal integrity during 2 kV EFT bursts. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX585-C4V3,115 | ±5 % tolerance (4.09–4.52 V), higher rdiff (600 Ω max), same SOD523 package | Acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs tight regulation needs | Select for non-critical biasing where ±5 % VZ drift is tolerable |
| MMSZ4V3T1G | ±5 % tolerance, 500 mW Ptot, SOD-123 package (2.7 × 1.4 mm) | Requires larger PCB area but handles higher continuous power | Choose when thermal margin >300 mW is required and board space permits larger footprint |
Compared with BZX585-C4V3,115, the BZX585-B4V3,135 offers tighter voltage control critical for precision references; versus MMSZ4V3T1G, it trades 200 mW lower power rating for 55 % smaller board area-ideal for wearables and miniaturized edge sensors.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current for BZX585-B4V3,135?
The device supports up to 200 mA forward current (IF), but its continuous reverse (Zener) current is limited by thermal design. At 25 °C ambient on FR4 with 35 mm² copper, maximum IZ ≈ 70 mA ensures Ptot ≤ 300 mW. Derating is required above 25 °C per Rth(j-a) = 350 K/W.
How does the cathode marking align with PCB layout for SOD523?
The cathode (terminal 1) is identified by a visible bar on the device body, aligned with the silkscreen "K" or shaded pad on the PCB footprint. In the SOD523 outline, the cathode pad is the leftmost pad when the marking bar faces upward-matching Nexperia's recommended reflow land pattern (Fig. 12).
Can BZX585-B4V3,135 replace BZX585-B4V7,135 in existing designs?
No direct substitution is recommended: BZX585-B4V7,135 has VZ = 4.61–4.79 V and different temperature coefficient (−3.5 to −1.2 mV/K). Swapping alters regulation threshold by ~0.35 V and changes thermal drift behavior, potentially causing reset timing errors or overvoltage exposure.
Is this Zener diode suitable for automotive applications?
BZX585-B4V3,135 is not AEC-Q200 qualified. While its −65 °C to +150 °C junction rating meets some under-hood temperature requirements, Nexperia explicitly states non-automotive qualification unless otherwise specified-making it appropriate only for consumer, industrial, and commercial systems.
