Product details
Overview
BZX79-B24,143 from Nexperia is a ±2% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode with nominal 24 V breakdown voltage at 5 mA test current, 60 Ω typical differential resistance, and −22 mV/K temperature coefficient at 5 mA. It operates in low-power stabilization circuits requiring stable reference voltages under ambient temperatures up to +150 °C and is housed in a hermetically sealed SOD27 (DO-35) glass package.
For engineers reviewing the BZX79-B24,143 datasheet, BZX79-B24,143 pinout, BZX79-B24,143 application, or BZX79-B24,143 equivalent, this part serves as a precision voltage reference in analog power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection clamps, and sensor biasing networks where tight tolerance and predictable thermal drift are critical.
Technical Context
This Zener diode functions in reverse-biased breakdown mode, delivering a stable 23.5–24.5 V regulation window at IZ = 5 mA with 60 Ω typical dynamic impedance. Its negative temperature coefficient of −22 mV/K enables predictable drift compensation in multi-diode reference strings.
Designed for operation up to 200 °C junction temperature, it supports non-repetitive surge handling up to 55 A peak reverse current (100 μs pulse) and dissipates up to 500 mW at Tamb = 50 °C with 380 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard PCB mounting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage (VZ) | 24 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise DC reference point for feedback or clamp circuits |
| Voltage Tolerance | ±2% - ensures 23.5–24.5 V regulation window for high-accuracy applications |
| Differential Resistance (rdiff) | 60 Ω typical at 5 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −22 mV/K at 5 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius for thermal design margining |
| Max Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 500 mW at Tamb = 50 °C - sets continuous thermal limit on standard PCB without heatsink |
| Non-repetitive Peak Reverse Current (IZSM) | 1.25 A at tp = 100 μs - defines single-event surge capability for transient suppression |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 50 nA at VR = 16.8 V - confirms low standby current in high-impedance bias networks |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STMicroelectronics BZT52-B24 | Same 24 V ±2%, but SOD-123 package (surface-mount); 400 mW Ptot; 70 Ω rdiff | Requires rework for through-hole PCBs; better suited for automated assembly | Select for space-constrained designs needing RoHS-compliant SMT placement |
| ON Semiconductor MMBZ5249BS | 24 V ±5%, SOT-23 package; 350 mW Ptot; 30 Ω rdiff; 100 nA IR at 16.8 V | Lower accuracy and higher leakage; optimized for cost-sensitive consumer electronics | Select only where ±5% tolerance and surface-mount are acceptable trade-offs |
Compared with BZX79-B24,143, the BZT52-B24 offers identical regulation accuracy in a smaller footprint but reduced power handling, while the MMBZ5249BS sacrifices tolerance and leakage performance for SMT compatibility and lower unit cost-making the original optimal for through-hole, high-stability industrial references.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for BZX79-B24,143 at 70 °C ambient?
At 70 °C ambient, the device must be derated from its 500 mW rating at 50 °C. Using the 380 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, the allowable power drops to approximately 368 mW to maintain Tj ≤ 200 °C. This is calculated via P = (Tjmax − Tamb) / Rth j-a.
Can BZX79-B24,143 be used in series for higher voltage references?
Yes-two BZX79-B24,143 diodes in series yield a 48 V reference with matched −22 mV/K temperature coefficients, resulting in near-zero net drift. The combined differential resistance is ~120 Ω, and total power dissipation must remain within 500 mW per device under operating conditions.
Is the cathode marking consistent across all BZX79-B24,143 units?
Yes-the cathode is always marked by a distinct color band on the glass body, per SOD27 package specification. This marking is laser-etched or painted during manufacturing and verified per JEDEC DO-35 standards; no exceptions exist in production lots.
How does reverse leakage compare between BZX79-B24,143 and BZX79-C24?
At VR = 16.8 V (70% of nominal), BZX79-B24,143 specifies 50 nA max, while the ±5% BZX79-C24 variant specifies 100 nA max. The tighter tolerance grade achieves lower leakage due to tighter process control during Zener junction formation.
