Product details
Overview
BZX84B11Q-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101-qualified surface-mount precision Zener diode with nominal 11 V zener voltage (±2% tolerance), 350 mW power dissipation, and 20 Ω maximum zener impedance at 5 mA test current. It operates across –65 °C to +150 °C and serves as a stable voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in automotive power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84B11Q-7-F datasheet, BZX84B11Q-7-F pinout, BZX84B11Q-7-F application, or BZX84B11Q-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include its ±2% VZ tolerance, low 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 8 V, +5.4 mV/°C temperature coefficient, SOT23 package compatibility, and automotive qualification for under-hood sensing and ECU biasing.
Technical Context
This Zener diode delivers precision regulation via sharp reverse-breakdown characteristics at IZT = 5 mA, with low dynamic impedance (20 Ω) ensuring minimal output voltage variation under load transients. Its thermal resistance of 357 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, terminals at ambient) supports reliable operation in compact automotive PCB layouts.
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +5.4 mV/°C near 11 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in temperature-sensitive references. Reverse leakage remains ≤0.1 µA at VR = 8.0 V, supporting low-power standby circuit integrity in always-on vehicle modules.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ4685-TP (Micro Commercial) | 11 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW PD, SOD-123 package | Higher power but looser tolerance; larger footprint | Select for cost-sensitive industrial designs where ±5% VZ is acceptable and board space permits SOD-123 |
| BZX84-C11 (Nexperia) | 11 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 300 mW PD, SOT23 package, no AEC-Q101 | Same footprint but non-automotive qualified and higher impedance (40 Ω) | Select for consumer-grade applications requiring SOT23 compatibility without automotive reliability requirements |
Compared with MMSZ4685-TP and BZX84-C11, BZX84B11Q-7-F provides tighter ±2% regulation, AEC-Q101 validation, and lower 20 Ω impedance-making it uniquely suitable for safety-critical automotive voltage references where accuracy and long-term stability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for BZX84B11Q-7-F at 8 V?
The maximum reverse leakage current is 0.1 µA at VR = 8.0 V and TA = +25 °C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal current draw in battery-backed or always-on circuits, preserving system standby efficiency without compromising regulation accuracy.
Is BZX84B11Q-7-F compatible with lead-free reflow soldering profiles?
Yes. The device features matte tin-plated leads qualified to MIL-STD-202, Method 208, and is fully RoHS 3 compliant. Its SOT23 package withstands peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C for 10 seconds, meeting IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity requirements without pre-bake.
How does the +5.4 mV/°C temperature coefficient affect circuit design?
This positive coefficient means VZ increases by 5.4 mV per degree Celsius rise. In temperature-critical applications like engine control, designers must account for this drift-e.g., by pairing with negative-TC components or using lookup-table compensation in firmware-to maintain total reference error within ±3% across –40 °C to +125 °C.
Can BZX84B11Q-7-F replace BZX84-C11 in existing designs?
Electrically, yes-the pinout and basic function match-but BZX84B11Q-7-F offers ±2% tolerance (vs. ±5%), 350 mW rating (vs. 300 mW), and AEC-Q101 qualification. Replacement requires validation of thermal margin and qualification documentation for automotive use; no layout change is needed due to identical SOT23 footprint.
