Product details
Overview
BZX84B8V2Q-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is an AEC-Q101 qualified surface-mount precision Zener diode with nominal 8.2 V zener voltage (±2% tolerance), 350 mW power dissipation, and 15 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current - used for voltage regulation and reference in automotive power supply monitoring circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84B8V2Q-7-F datasheet, BZX84B8V2Q-7-F pinout, BZX84B8V2Q-7-F application, or BZX84B8V2Q-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage stability over temperature (3.2 mV/°C TC), low reverse leakage (0.7 µA at 5.0 V), SOT23 package compatibility with automated assembly, and automotive-grade reliability qualification.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its ±2% VZ tolerance at IZT = 5 mA and low 15 Ω zener impedance ensure tight regulation in feedback loops and sensing nodes.
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +3.2 mV/°C above 6 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in voltage references. It is rated for continuous operation from –65 °C to +150 °C and meets AEC-Q101 stress testing requirements for automotive under-hood applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

| Power Dissipation | 350 mW at TA = 25 °C - supports sustained regulation in compact SOT23 footprint without forced cooling |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 15 Ω at 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under dynamic load changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.7 µA max at 5.0 V - reduces quiescent current error in high-impedance bias networks |
| Temperature Coefficient | +3.2 mV/°C - allows predictable voltage drift modeling for temperature-compensated designs |
| Package | SOT23 - compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment and IPC-7351B land patterns |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ4701T1G | 8.2 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW rating, SOD-123 package | Higher power but looser tolerance; larger footprint limits high-density layouts | Select when higher surge energy handling is required and board space permits SOD-123 |

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage this Zener can regulate before breakdown?
The BZX84B8V2Q-7-F has a nominal zener voltage of 8.2 V with a guaranteed range of 8.04 V to 8.36 V at 5 mA test current. Breakdown begins near the lower limit and stabilizes across the specified range; operation below 8.04 V results in negligible reverse current (<0.7 µA at 5.0 V).
Is this part suitable for use in a 12 V automotive system's overvoltage protection circuit?
Yes - its 8.2 V zener voltage provides safe margin below typical 13.5–14.5 V alternator output, and its AEC-Q101 qualification ensures robustness against automotive temperature cycling, vibration, and load dump transients up to 350 mW.
How does the +3.2 mV/°C temperature coefficient affect long-term voltage accuracy?
Over a –40 °C to +125 °C range, the coefficient contributes ±0.53 V drift (165 °C × 3.2 mV/°C), resulting in total VZ shift from ~7.7 V to ~8.7 V. For high-accuracy systems, this must be compensated via calibration or paired with negative-TC components.
Can this Zener diode replace a 3-terminal voltage reference IC in low-power applications?
It can serve as a simple, low-cost shunt reference where ±2% initial accuracy and moderate temperature drift are acceptable - e.g., in comparator thresholds or ADC scaling. However, it lacks the ultra-low drift, low noise, and buffered output of dedicated reference ICs like TL431 or REF50xx.
