Product details
Overview
BZX84B8V2-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a precision 8.2 V ±2% tolerance Zener diode in SOT23 package, rated for 350 mW power dissipation at 25°C ambient, with 15 Ω typical Zener impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.7 µA maximum reverse leakage at 5.0 V, widely used for voltage regulation and reference in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84B8V2-7-F datasheet, BZX84B8V2-7-F pinout, BZX84B8V2-7-F application, or BZX84B8V2-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (357 °C/W), junction-to-ambient derating behavior, and AEC-Q101 qualification status for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load and temperature conditions. Its ±2% VZ tolerance, low 15 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT = 5 mA, and 3.2 mV/°C temperature coefficient enable precise voltage referencing in feedback loops and protection circuits.
The device is qualified to AEC-Q101 standards and features halogen- and antimony-free "Green" construction with matte tin lead finish. Its SOT23 package supports automated assembly and delivers 350 mW power dissipation when leads are held at ambient temperature, with thermal resistance reduced to 357 °C/W under that condition.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.2 V nominal, 8.04–8.36 V range at 5 mA - ensures tight regulation for 8 V reference rails. |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 350 mW at TA = 25°C with leads at ambient - defines maximum continuous steady-state power handling. |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 15 Ω at IZT = 5 mA - low dynamic resistance minimizes output voltage variation under load changes. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.7 µA max at VR = 5.0 V - guarantees minimal quiescent current in standby or sensing paths. |
| Temperature Coefficient | +6.2 mV/°C - positive drift enables predictable compensation in temperature-sensitive references. |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 357 °C/W - determines junction temperature rise per milliwatt under specified mounting conditions. |
| Package | SOT23 - surface-mount, 3-terminal plastic case enabling high-density PCB layout and reflow compatibility. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - three-terminal surface-mount plastic package with standard pin configuration: Anode (Pin 1), Cathode (Pin 2), and Anode (Pin 3) - Pin 2 is cathode, Pins 1 & 3 internally connected to anode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode | Internally tied to Pin 3; connects to lower-potential side of regulated circuit or ground reference. |
| Pin 2 | Cathode | Zener output terminal; connects to regulated voltage node or feedback point in shunt regulator. |
| Pin 3 | Anode | Redundant anode connection; improves thermal and mechanical robustness in high-reliability layouts. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ5236B-7-F | 8.2 V ±5% tolerance, 500 mW PD, 20 Ω ZZT, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Higher power but looser tolerance; suitable for non-automotive cost-sensitive designs | Select when higher power margin outweighs need for tight regulation and automotive qualification. |
| BZX84-C8V2 | 8.2 V ±5% tolerance, same SOT23 package, 350 mW, not AEC-Q101 qualified | Lacks automotive reliability validation and tighter tolerance; lower cost alternative | Choose for consumer-grade applications where ±5% VZ and non-automotive qualification are acceptable. |
Compared with MMSZ5236B-7-F and BZX84-C8V2, BZX84B8V2-7-F provides superior voltage accuracy (±2% vs. ±5%), guaranteed automotive qualification, and lower dynamic impedance-critical for closed-loop regulation and high-reliability sensing.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for BZX84B8V2-7-F?
The nominal Zener voltage is 8.2 V with a guaranteed range of 8.04 V to 8.36 V at 5 mA test current. Breakdown occurs within this band; operation below 5.0 V reverse bias yields ≤0.7 µA leakage, confirming stable non-conduction outside the Zener region.
Can BZX84B8V2-7-F be used in place of a 5.1 V Zener diode?
No - BZX84B8V2-7-F is strictly an 8.2 V device and cannot substitute for 5.1 V Zeners like BZX84B5V1. Voltage mismatch would cause incorrect regulation or failure to clamp, potentially damaging downstream circuitry reliant on precise 5.1 V reference.
Is the SOT23 package lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes - BZX84B8V2-7-F uses matte tin plating over Alloy 42 leadframe, contains no intentionally added lead, and complies fully with EU RoHS 2 (2011/65/EU) and RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) directives, as confirmed in Diodes Incorporated's official documentation.
How does thermal derating affect power handling above 25°C ambient?
Per Figure 1 in DS36159 Rev. 3, power dissipation linearly derates from 350 mW at 25°C to zero at ~150°C ambient. At 85°C ambient, maximum allowable power drops to approximately 240 mW, calculated using the 357 °C/W RθJA value and TJ limit of 150°C.
