Product details
Overview
BZX79-B4V3,113 from Nexperia is a ±2% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode in a hermetically sealed SOD27 (DO-35) glass package, rated for 4.3 V nominal Zener voltage at 5 mA test current, 410 Ω typical differential resistance, and −2.5 mV/K temperature coefficient. It delivers stable low-voltage reference or stabilization in power supply feedback paths, sensor biasing circuits, and overvoltage protection clamps.
For engineers reviewing the BZX79-B4V3,113 datasheet, BZX79-B4V3,113 pinout, BZX79-B4V3,113 application, or BZX79-B4V3,113 equivalent, this part serves as a precision 4.3 V reference with tight ±2% tolerance, low 3 μA reverse leakage at 1 V, and robust 40 W non-repetitive surge capability - critical for compact analog regulation and ESD-tolerant signal conditioning designs.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain a stable DC voltage across its terminals under varying load or input conditions. Its −2.5 mV/K temperature coefficient indicates moderate negative drift with junction temperature rise, requiring thermal-aware placement in precision references.
The device uses axial-leaded SOD27 packaging with cathode band marking, enabling through-hole mounting on PCBs without metallization pads. Its 400–500 mW total power dissipation at Tamb = 50 °C supports continuous regulation in space-constrained linear supplies and interface protection networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.21 V to 4.39 V at IZ = 5 mA - ensures precise 4.3 V regulation within ±2% tolerance for feedback and reference use. |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 410 Ω typical at IZ = 5 mA - defines small-signal impedance in regulation region; impacts load regulation error. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 3 μA max at VR = 1 V - low leakage preserves accuracy in high-impedance bias networks and battery-powered sensors. |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −2.5 mV/K typical at IZ = 5 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree; enables thermal compensation design. |
| Non-repetitive Peak Power (PZSM) | 40 W at tp = 100 μs - supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure in surge-prone interfaces. |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 500 mW at Tamb = 50 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling for thermal design margin. |
| Junction Temperature Range | −65 °C to +200 °C - allows operation in extended industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ4685,115 | SOT-23 surface-mount package; same 4.3 V nominal, ±5% tolerance; 350 mW Ptot; higher 5 μA leakage at 1 V. | Designed for space-constrained PCB layouts; lacks hermetic seal; unsuitable for high-humidity or long-life deployments. | Select for automated assembly and compact consumer electronics where board space outweighs environmental robustness. |
| BZX84-C4V3,215 | SOT-23 package; ±5% tolerance; 300 mW Ptot; 5 μA leakage at 1 V; no guaranteed tempco spec. | General-purpose replacement with looser tolerance; lower surge rating (25 W); not recommended for precision or high-reliability use. | Choose only for non-critical voltage clamping in cost-driven consumer products with no thermal or lifetime requirements. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for BZX79-B4V3,113?
The BZX79-B4V3,113 has a maximum total power dissipation of 500 mW at ambient temperature of 50 °C with leads mounted per standard PCB layout (lead length ≤8 mm, no metallization pad). At higher ambient temperatures, derating applies per the Rth j-a = 380 K/W thermal resistance specification.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy?
With a typical temperature coefficient of −2.5 mV/K, the Zener voltage decreases by approximately 2.5 mV per Kelvin rise in junction temperature. Over a 100 °C range (e.g., −40 °C to +60 °C), this results in ~250 mV drift - requiring thermal layout awareness or compensation in precision reference designs.
Can BZX79-B4V3,113 be used in surface-mount designs?
No - BZX79-B4V3,113 uses an axial-leaded SOD27 (DO-35) glass package designed exclusively for through-hole mounting. For surface-mount alternatives, consider Nexperia's MMBZ4685,115 (SOT-23) or BZX84-C4V3,215, though both offer only ±5% tolerance and lower surge ratings.
What is the reverse leakage current at 1 V and 25 °C?
Per the datasheet, the maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for BZX79-B4V3,113 is 3 μA at VR = 1 V and Tj = 25 °C. This low leakage supports high-impedance bias networks and extends battery life in always-on monitoring circuits.
