Product details
Overview
BZX84B11-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a precision 11 V ±2% tolerance Zener diode in SOT23 package, rated for 350 mW power dissipation at 25°C ambient, with 20 Ω maximum Zener impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.1 µA maximum reverse leakage at 8 V, used for voltage regulation and reference in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84B11-7-F datasheet, BZX84B11-7-F pinout, BZX84B11-7-F application, or BZX84B11-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include tight 11 V nominal Zener voltage tolerance, low dynamic impedance, AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly on FR-4 PCBs.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load and temperature conditions. Its 11 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 5 mA test current (IZT), with 20 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) and 150 Ω knee impedance (ZZK) at 1 mA, ensuring predictable regulation performance.
Thermal resistance is 357 °C/W when terminals are held at ambient temperature, enabling reliable operation up to +150°C junction temperature. The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +5.4 mV/°C near 11 V, supporting stable biasing in temperature-sensitive analog references.
Key Specifications

| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 20 Ω max at 5 mA - minimizes output voltage variation under load transients |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA max at VR = 8.0 V - preserves low quiescent current in battery-powered reference circuits |
| Temperature Coefficient | +5.4 mV/°C at 11 V - enables predictable drift compensation in temperature-stable references |
| Junction-to-Ambient RθJA | 357 °C/W - defines thermal derating curve for safe operation on standard FR-4 PCBs |

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for BZX84B11-7-F?
The BZX84B11-7-F has a nominal Zener voltage of 11.0 V, with guaranteed breakdown occurring between 10.8 V and 11.2 V at 5 mA test current. It does not conduct significantly below 10.8 V, maintaining <0.1 µA leakage at 8.0 V reverse bias per datasheet specification.
Can BZX84B11-7-F be used in place of BZX84-C11 in existing designs?
Yes, but with trade-offs: BZX84B11-7-F offers ±2% tolerance and AEC-Q101 qualification versus BZX84-C11's ±5% and commercial-only rating. Electrical pinout and SOT23 footprint are identical, but thermal derating and long-term stability differ due to tighter process control and qualification testing.
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for reliable reflow soldering?
Diodes Incorporated specifies a SOT23 pad layout with 0.8 mm pad width (X), 1.35 mm pad length (X1), 0.9 mm spacing (Y), and 2.9 mm overall length (Y1). This layout ensures proper solder fillet formation, thermal relief, and coplanarity control during reflow, minimizing tombstoning risk.
Does BZX84B11-7-F support bidirectional ESD protection?
No - BZX84B11-7-F is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias voltage regulation. It lacks symmetric clamping characteristics and is not rated for IEC 61000-4-2 ESD events. For bidirectional protection, dedicated TVS diodes such as D24Z11M2LP should be used instead.
