Product details
Overview
BZX79-B2V7,133 from Nexperia is a ±2% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode in DO-35 (SOD27) glass package, rated for 2.65 V to 2.75 V nominal Zener voltage at 5 mA test current, with 300 Ω typical differential resistance and −3.5 mV/K to −2.0 mV/K temperature coefficient - used as a low-power voltage reference in analog sensor biasing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX79-B2V7,133 datasheet, BZX79-B2V7,133 pinout, BZX79-B2V7,133 application, or BZX79-B2V7,133 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal limits, reverse leakage behavior at VR = 1 V (20 μA max), and package-specific mounting guidance for precision low-voltage stabilization.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator, maintaining stable output by conducting reverse current above its specified Zener breakdown threshold. Its low 2.7 V nominal voltage enables use in 3.3 V rail monitoring and battery-level sensing where headroom is constrained.
Designed for operation at Tj = 25 °C unless otherwise specified, it exhibits a negative temperature coefficient (−3.5 to −2.0 mV/K), requiring thermal compensation in high-stability references. The 450 pF diode capacitance at 0 V and 1 MHz impacts high-frequency noise rejection in feedback paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.65 V to 2.75 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise regulation point for low-voltage analog references |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 300 Ω typ., 600 Ω max. at IZ = 5 mA - determines load regulation error under current variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 20 μA max. at VR = 1 V - sets minimum bias current requirement for stable regulation onset |
| Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 500 mW max. at Tamb = 50 °C - constrains continuous operating current to ≤185 mA at 2.7 V |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −3.5 mV/K to −2.0 mV/K - requires derating or compensation in temperature-varying environments |
| Diode Capacitance (Cd) | 450 pF max. at f = 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - limits high-frequency stability in active filter or oscillator feedback networks |
| Non-repetitive Peak Power (PZSM) | 40 W max. for tp = 100 μs - supports transient overvoltage clamping in low-energy surge events |
Pinout & Package
Hermetically sealed axial-leaded DO-35 (SOD27) glass package with cathode band marking; leads are untrimmed, intended for through-hole PCB mounting with ≤8 mm lead length for thermal compliance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / reference ground node | Connected to system ground or lower-potential rail; establishes reference return path |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / regulated output node | Connected to input supply; voltage at this node is clamped to VZ when reverse-biased |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±2% Zener voltage tolerance | Enables tighter regulation accuracy than ±5% variants, reducing need for post-calibration in precision references |
| 500 mW total power dissipation | Supports higher continuous bias current than standard 400 mW variants, improving noise immunity in low-current references |
| Low 2.7 V nominal breakdown | Permits direct regulation from 3.3 V supplies without series resistors exceeding 0.6 V drop, minimizing power loss |
| DO-35 hermetic glass package | Provides long-term parameter stability and moisture resistance critical for industrial-grade analog signal chains |
| −3.5 to −2.0 mV/K tempco | Allows predictable drift modeling in temperature-compensated reference designs using complementary components |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5221BS-7-F | 2.4 V nominal, SOT-23 package, 225 mW Ptot, ±5% tolerance | Suitable only for non-critical biasing; lacks tight tolerance and thermal stability of DO-35 glass | Select when board space is constrained and ±5% accuracy suffices |
| BZX79-C2V7,113 | Same DO-35 package but ±5% tolerance (2.5 V–2.9 V), higher IR (50 μA at 1 V) | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer electronics where calibration is performed post-assembly | Select when production test coverage compensates for wider VZ spread |
Compared with MMBZ5221BS-7-F and BZX79-C2V7,113, the BZX79-B2V7,133 delivers superior voltage accuracy and thermal consistency for analog signal conditioning, while its DO-35 package ensures long-term reliability in thermally cycled industrial environments - making it the preferred choice where reference stability directly impacts measurement integrity.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current for reliable regulation?
The BZX79-B2V7,133 maintains regulation up to 185 mA at 2.7 V when ambient temperature is held at 50 °C, based on its 500 mW power rating and thermal resistance of 380 K/W. Exceeding this current risks thermal runaway due to negative tempco amplification, especially without heatsinking or airflow.
Can this diode be used in series with another Zener for higher voltage reference?
Yes - stacking two BZX79-B2V7,133 diodes yields ~5.4 V with matched tempco behavior, but differential resistance adds (600 Ω max each), increasing output impedance. For >3 V references, dedicated higher-voltage Zeners like BZX79-B5V1 offer lower rdif and better stability.
Is the DO-35 package compatible with automated through-hole insertion equipment?
Yes - the DO-35 package has standardized 0.56 mm lead diameter and 25.4 mm lead spacing per IEC/DO-35 spec, supporting wave soldering and standard axial-component placement machines. Lead length must be trimmed to ≤8 mm after insertion to maintain thermal resistance compliance.
How does reverse leakage affect low-power battery applications?
At VR = 1 V, leakage is capped at 20 μA - acceptable for most battery-powered systems drawing >100 μA. However, in nanoampere-sleep-mode devices (e.g., IoT sensors), this leakage dominates quiescent current; consider BZX84-C2V7 (SOT-23, 5 μA max) for sub-μA standby budgets.
