Product details
Overview
BZX84B7V5LT1 from onsemi is a tight-tolerance Zener diode in SOT-23 package, delivering precise 7.5 V regulation at 5 mA with ±1% voltage tolerance (7.35–7.65 V), 15 Ω dynamic impedance, and 1 μA reverse leakage at 5 V. It serves as a stable reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84B7V5LT1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its ±1% Zener voltage tolerance, 250 mW power rating on FR-5 board, ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), and SOT-23 footprint compatibility for high-density PCBs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using controlled avalanche breakdown in silicon. Its tight 1% tolerance is achieved via process trimming during manufacturing, enabling accurate biasing and feedback sensing without external calibration.
The SOT-23 package features a defined pinout (Pin 1: Anode, Pin 2: No Connection, Pin 3: Cathode) and supports automated placement. Thermal resistance is 500 °C/W on FR-5 board, limiting continuous dissipation to 250 mW at 25°C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage | 7.5 V nominal at 5 mA; tight ±1% tolerance (7.35–7.65 V) enables precision voltage referencing without trimming. |
| Power Rating | 250 mW on FR-5 board; derates linearly above 25°C (2.0 mW/°C), supporting reliable operation in compact enclosures. |
| Zener Impedance | 15 Ω at 5 mA; ensures minimal output voltage variation under load changes in feedback or clamp circuits. |
| Reverse Leakage | 1 μA maximum at 5 V; guarantees low quiescent current in battery-powered systems and high-impedance sensing nodes. |
| Temperature Coefficient | +2.5 mV/°C at 5 mA; provides predictable, positive drift for temperature-compensated designs near room temperature. |
| Capacitance | 140 pF at 0 V, 1 MHz; impacts high-frequency noise filtering and transient response in decoupling applications. |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) per Human Body Model; withstands handling and system-level ESD events without degradation. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (TO-236) surface-mount package: 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm × 1.00 mm body, 1.90 mm lead pitch, Pb-free, RoHS compliant. Cathode indicated by band; Pin 2 is internally unconnected and must remain floating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode | Forward-biased terminal; connects to lower-potential node in reverse-bias regulation configuration. |
| Pin 2 | No Connection | Internally isolated; must not be soldered or tied to any net to avoid parasitic coupling or thermal stress. |
| Pin 3 | Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal; connects to higher-potential node and serves as regulated output reference point. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Tight voltage tolerance | ±1% (7.35–7.65 V) at 5 mA - eliminates need for external trimming in precision analog references. |
| Low dynamic impedance | 15 Ω at 5 mA - maintains stable regulation across varying load currents in feedback loops. |
| High ESD robustness | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - survives handling and system-level transients without parameter shift or failure. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84C7V5LT1G | Same 7.5 V nominal, but ±5% tolerance (7.0–7.9 V); higher 30 μA leakage at 5 V. | Acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs precision; unsuitable for <1% reference needs. | Select when budget constraints dominate and ±5% regulation is sufficient for system margin. |
| SZBZX84B7V5LT1G | Identical electrical specs; AEC-Q101 qualified, PPAP-capable, automotive-grade traceability. | Required for automotive ECUs; unnecessary for consumer portables or industrial controls. | Choose only if automotive qualification, extended temperature validation, or change-controlled sourcing is mandated. |
Compared with BZX84B7V5LT1, BZX84C7V5LT1G trades precision for cost, while SZBZX84B7V5LT1G adds automotive compliance overhead without electrical benefit - making BZX84B7V5LT1 optimal for non-automotive precision regulation.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of BZX84B7V5LT1?
The BZX84B7V5LT1 has a tight ±1% Zener voltage tolerance, specified as 7.35 V minimum to 7.65 V maximum at 5 mA test current. This precision is achieved through factory trimming and distinguishes it from standard-tolerance variants like the BZX84C7V5LT1G. The BZX84B7V5LT1 delivers repeatable regulation critical for reference and feedback applications.
Does BZX84B7V5LT1 have a connection on Pin 2?
No, Pin 2 of the BZX84B7V5LT1 is internally unconnected (NC) and must remain electrically floating in the PCB layout. The device uses only Pins 1 (Anode) and 3 (Cathode) for operation. Soldering or routing to Pin 2 may introduce parasitic capacitance or thermal stress and is strictly prohibited per onsemi's mechanical specifications.
What is the maximum power dissipation of BZX84B7V5LT1 on FR-5 board?
The BZX84B7V5LT1 is rated for 250 mW total power dissipation on FR-5 board at 25°C ambient temperature. Above 25°C, it derates linearly at 2.0 mW/°C, reaching zero dissipation at 150°C junction temperature. This rating assumes standard JEDEC-defined board conditions and defines the safe operating area for continuous DC or pulsed regulation use.
Is BZX84B7V5LT1 RoHS compliant and Pb-free?
Yes, the BZX84B7V5LT1 is Pb-free and fully RoHS compliant, as confirmed in onsemi's official datasheet and packaging documentation. The "G" suffix in alternate part numbers (e.g., BZX84B7V5LT1G) explicitly denotes Pb-free construction, and the device meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.
How does the temperature coefficient affect BZX84B7V5LT1 performance?
The BZX84B7V5LT1 exhibits a +2.5 mV/°C temperature coefficient at 5 mA, meaning its Zener voltage increases by approximately 2.5 mV per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature. This predictable positive drift allows designers to compensate for thermal effects in precision references or select complementary components for zero-TC designs.
