BZX84B3V0Q-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101-qualified, ±2% tolerance precision Zener diode in SOT23 package, rated for 350mW power dissipation at 3.0V nominal Zener voltage (2.94–3.06V range), 5mA test current, and 95Ω dynamic impedance at 1kHz - used for voltage regulation and reference in automotive power supply monitoring circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84B3V0Q-7-F datasheet, BZX84B3V0Q-7-F pinout, BZX84B3V0Q-7-F application, or BZX84B3V0Q-7-F equivalent, key selection factors include its automotive qualification, tight 2% VZ tolerance, low 95Ω Zener impedance at IZT, -3.5mV/°C temperature coefficient, and SOT23 footprint compatibility with high-volume automated assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across load variations and temperature shifts. Its 3.0V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 5mA test current, with 95Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) and 600Ω knee impedance (ZZK) at 1mA, ensuring predictable regulation under light and moderate loads.
The device features a negative temperature coefficient of -3.5mV/°C near 3V, enabling predictable drift compensation in reference designs. It is qualified to AEC-Q101 standards, with 350mW power rating under ambient-temperature terminal conditions and 300mW derated rating on FR-4 PCB per JEDEC layout guidelines.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse current specification for BZX84B3V0Q-7-F at 1.0V?
The maximum reverse current (IR) is 10µA at VR = 1.0V, measured at TA = +25°C. This low leakage ensures minimal parasitic loading in high-impedance reference and sensing nodes, supporting accurate measurements in battery-powered and low-power systems.
How does the -3.5mV/°C temperature coefficient affect circuit design?
The negative temperature coefficient means the Zener voltage decreases by 3.5mV per °C rise in junction temperature. Designers must account for this drift in precision references - for example, by pairing with positive-TC components or applying software compensation in microcontroller-based systems operating across -40°C to +125°C.
Is BZX84B3V0Q-7-F compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes - it uses matte tin-plated terminals qualified to MIL-STD-202 Method 208 and supports standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C). The SOT23 package meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1, eliminating bake requirements prior to assembly.
What is the difference between BZX84B3V0Q-7-F and BZX84B3V0-7-F?
BZX84B3V0Q-7-F is the automotive-qualified version (AEC-Q101), while BZX84B3V0-7-F is the commercial-grade variant. Both share identical electrical specs and SOT23 packaging, but only the "Q" suffix denotes full automotive qualification, including extended temperature testing, failure analysis, and process controls mandated for automotive applications.
