Product details
Overview
BZX585-C5V6,135 from Nexperia is a 5.6 V ±5 % Zener voltage regulator diode in an SOD523 (SC-79) ultra-small surface-mount package, rated for 300 mW total power dissipation and 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power, used for precision low-power voltage reference and overvoltage protection in space-constrained consumer and industrial circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX585-C5V6,135 datasheet, BZX585-C5V6,135 pinout, BZX585-C5V6,135 application, or BZX585-C5V6,135 equivalent, this part delivers stable 5.6 V regulation at 5 mA with 80 Ω typical differential resistance, low 1.0 µA reverse current at 3.0 V, and −2.0 to +1.0 mV/K temperature coefficient - critical for battery-powered sensor nodes and portable power management.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain a stable reference voltage across its cathode–anode terminals under controlled current conditions. Its 5.6 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZ = 5 mA with ±5 % tolerance and exhibits a low 80 Ω typical differential resistance (rdiff) at that bias point.
The device features a thermal resistance of 65 K/W from junction to solder point and 350 K/W to ambient on FR4 PCB, enabling reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature. Its 1.0 V forward voltage at 100 mA supports use as a low-drop clamp in bidirectional protection schemes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 5.32 V to 5.88 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines stable regulation window for 5 V rail supervision |
| Differential Resistance (rdiff) | 80 Ω typical at IZ = 5 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤ 1.0 µA at VR = 3.0 V - ensures minimal leakage in standby power paths |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 300 mW at Tamb = 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling on standard PCB layout |
| Non-repetitive Peak Power (PZSM) | 40 W at tp = 100 µs - enables transient surge suppression for ESD and inductive kick events |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.1 V max at IF = 100 mA - supports use as series clamp or polarity protection element |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −2.0 to +1.0 mV/K - quantifies voltage drift over operating temperature range |
Pinout & Package
SOD523 (SC-79) ultra-small flat-lead plastic package: 1.25 mm × 0.85 mm footprint, 0.65 mm height, cathode marked by bar on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to regulated voltage node; marking bar identifies this terminal |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to ground or lower-potential reference; reverse-biased during regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-profile SMD packaging | SOD523 footprint (1.25 × 0.85 mm) enables placement in dense portable PCB layouts |
| Stable Zener voltage tolerance | ±5 % at IZ = 5 mA ensures predictable regulation without trimming circuitry |
| Low differential resistance | 80 Ω typical improves load regulation and reduces output voltage variation under current change |
| Controlled temperature coefficient | −2.0 to +1.0 mV/K minimizes drift in 0 °C to 70 °C ambient operating range |
| High surge capability | 40 W non-repetitive peak power supports transient clamping per IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 |
Applications
| USB Port Overvoltage Protection | Low-Power Sensor Reference |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX585-B5V6,135 | ±2 % tolerance vs. ±5 %; 400 Ω max rdiff at 5 mA vs. 80 Ω typical | Higher precision required where 5.6 V stability >0.1 % matters; less suitable for low-current sensing | Select for tighter voltage control in calibration references; avoid where low dynamic impedance is critical |
| MMSZ5232B-7-F | 5.6 V ±5 %, SOD-123 package (2.7 × 1.4 mm), 500 mW Ptot, 100 Ω rdiff | Larger footprint and higher power rating suit higher-current or thermally demanding designs | Choose when board space allows larger package and 500 mW continuous dissipation is needed |
Compared with BZX585-C5V6,135, the BZX585-B5V6,135 offers tighter voltage tolerance but higher dynamic impedance, while MMSZ5232B-7-F provides greater power headroom in a larger package - making the C-grade optimal for compact, low-leakage, medium-precision regulation.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current for BZX585-C5V6,135?
The device has no specified maximum continuous reverse current; instead, it is rated for 300 mW total power dissipation at 25 °C ambient. At its 5.6 V Zener voltage, this corresponds to a maximum continuous Zener current of approximately 53.6 mA (300 mW ÷ 5.6 V), assuming full power is allocated to reverse conduction.
Can BZX585-C5V6,135 be used in series for higher voltage regulation?
No - the BZX585-C5V6,135 is not characterized or guaranteed for series operation. Zener tolerances, temperature coefficients, and dynamic impedances vary between units, causing uneven voltage division and potential thermal runaway. Dedicated higher-voltage Zeners or active regulators are recommended instead.
How does the SOD523 package affect thermal performance?
The SOD523 package delivers Rth(j-sp) = 65 K/W to the cathode solder point, enabling effective heat transfer to PCB copper. However, its small size limits Rth(j-a) to 350 K/W in free air, so sustained power dissipation above ~100 mW requires careful copper pour design and airflow consideration.
Is BZX585-C5V6,135 suitable for automotive applications?
No - this part is not AEC-Q200 qualified and lacks automotive-grade screening, temperature validation beyond 150 °C junction, or extended reliability testing. Nexperia explicitly states non-automotive qualification in the legal disclaimers; automotive designs require AEC-Q200-compliant Zeners such as PZTA44 or BZX84-A5V6.
