Product details
Overview
BZX84B22LT1G from onsemi is a 22 V ±1% tight-tolerance Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 250 mW power dissipation on FR-5 board at 25°C, with 55 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.05 µA reverse leakage at 17.6 V. It provides precision voltage regulation in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84B22LT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±1%), thermal resistance (500 °C/W), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), junction temperature range (−65 to +150°C), and SOT-23 footprint compatibility for high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference, conducting in reverse breakdown when cathode-to-anode voltage exceeds 21.6–22.4 V at 5 mA. Its low 55 Ω Zener impedance ensures stable regulation under varying load currents, while the −65°C to +150°C operating range supports industrial and automotive ambient conditions.
The SOT-23 package features a defined pinout (Pin 1: Anode, Pin 2: No Connection, Pin 3: Cathode) and Pb-free construction compliant with RoHS. Thermal derating is 2.0 mW/°C above 25°C on FR-5 board, limiting usable power at elevated temperatures without heatsinking.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Zener Voltage | 22 V nominal, ±1% tolerance (21.6–22.4 V @ 5 mA) - enables precise reference generation in feedback loops |
| Power Dissipation | 250 mW @ 25°C on FR-5 board - defines maximum continuous regulation power before thermal shutdown |
| Zener Impedance | 55 Ω @ 5 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients |
| Reverse Leakage | 0.05 µA @ 17.6 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby mode |
| Temperature Coefficient | +15.4 mV/°C @ 5 mA - quantifies voltage drift over temperature; positive slope above ~6 V |
| Capacitance | 85 pF @ 0 V, 1 MHz - impacts high-frequency noise filtering and AC coupling performance |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) per HBM - protects against handling-induced electrostatic discharge during assembly |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (TO-236) surface-mount plastic package, 2.90 × 1.30 × 1.00 mm, void-free thermosetting case with corrosion-resistant finish, UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, and cathode indicated by polarity band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode | Forward-biased terminal; connects to lower-potential node in regulation circuit |
| Pin 2 | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or pad required |
| Pin 3 | Cathode | Reverse-biased terminal; connects to regulated output or voltage reference point |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84C22LT1G | Standard tolerance (±5%, 20.8–23.3 V), higher 250 Ω Zener impedance at 5 mA | Acceptable where ±5% regulation is sufficient; less suitable for precision feedback | Select BZX84C22LT1G only if cost sensitivity outweighs voltage accuracy requirements |
| SZBZX84B22LT1G | AEC-Q101 qualified, PPAP-capable, identical electrical specs and SOT-23 package | Required for automotive production; same pinout and layout but with extended qualification documentation | Choose SZBZX84B22LT1G when automotive-grade reliability and traceability are mandatory |
Compared with BZX84B22LT1G, BZX84C22LT1G trades tighter voltage control for lower cost, while SZBZX84B22LT1G adds automotive qualification without altering electrical behavior - enabling drop-in replacement where AEC-Q101 compliance is required.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of BZX84B22LT1G?
The BZX84B22LT1G has a tight ±1% Zener voltage tolerance, specified as 21.6 V minimum to 22.4 V maximum at 5 mA test current. This tolerance is confirmed in the "BZX84BxxxL (Tight Tolerance Series)" section of the official onsemi datasheet, distinguishing it from the ±5% standard-tolerance BZX84C22LT1G variant.
Does BZX84B22LT1G have a functional third pin?
No, BZX84B22LT1G uses a 3-pin SOT-23 package but only two terminals are electrically active: Pin 1 (Anode) and Pin 3 (Cathode). Pin 2 is internally unconnected and must remain floating on the PCB - it serves no electrical function and should not be soldered or routed.
What is the maximum power dissipation of BZX84B22LT1G at 85°C ambient?
At 85°C ambient, BZX84B22LT1G's power dissipation is derated from 250 mW at 25°C by 2.0 mW/°C, resulting in a maximum of 130 mW (250 mW − (85 − 25) × 2.0 mW). This value assumes mounting on FR-5 board and is validated in the Maximum Ratings table of the onsemi datasheet.
Is BZX84B22LT1G suitable for automotive applications?
The standard BZX84B22LT1G is not AEC-Q101 qualified. For automotive use, the functionally identical SZBZX84B22LT1G variant must be selected - it shares the same electrical specs and SOT-23 package but includes full automotive qualification, PPAP documentation, and controlled manufacturing site traceability.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for BZX84B22LT1G?
BZX84B22LT1G specifies a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.05 µA at VR = 17.6 V (80% of nominal Zener voltage), measured at 25°C. This parameter is explicitly listed in the "ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS − BZX84BxxxL" table on page 4 of the onsemi datasheet.
