Product details
Overview
BZX84C11LT1 from onsemi is a 11 V, ±5% tolerance Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 225 mW power dissipation on FR-5 board at 25°C, with 20 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 8.5 V, used for voltage regulation and reference in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84C11LT1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal derating behavior, cathode-anode polarity mapping, and direct alternatives for low-power voltage clamping and precision biasing circuits.
Technical Context
The BZX84C11LT1 operates as a two-terminal silicon Zener diode with avalanche breakdown mechanism, delivering stable reverse-biased voltage regulation across −65°C to +150°C junction temperature range. Its 5.4 mV/°C temperature coefficient ensures predictable drift in thermal-varying environments.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on high-density PCBs, it features a no-connection terminal (Pin 2), enabling compact layout while maintaining isolation between anode (Pin 1) and cathode (Pin 3). ESD robustness exceeds 16 kV per Human Body Model, supporting reliable handling in automated production.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage | 11 V nominal, 10.4–11.6 V min–max at 5 mA - defines regulated output voltage under standard test conditions |
| Power Dissipation | 225 mW on FR-5 board at 25°C - sets maximum continuous DC power before thermal derating begins |
| Zener Impedance | 20 Ω max at 5 mA - determines AC voltage variation under changing load current |
| Reverse Leakage | 0.1 µA max at 8.5 V - specifies off-state current that impacts low-power standby accuracy |
| Capacitance | 130 pF max at 0 V, 1 MHz - affects high-frequency noise filtering and signal integrity in RF-adjacent circuits |
| Temp Coefficient | +5.4 mV/°C - quantifies voltage shift per degree Celsius, critical for temperature-stable references |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - enables safe handling without external protection in assembly lines |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 plastic surface-mount package (Case 318, Style 8), void-free thermosetting body with corrosion-resistant finish, 260°C soldering tolerance for 10 seconds, UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, and cathode indicated by polarity band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Forward current entry point; connects to lower-potential node in reverse-bias regulation configuration |
| 2 | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating-no PCB trace or pad required |
| 3 | Cathode | Reverse-bias voltage reference node; ties to regulated output or feedback path in shunt regulator |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pb-Free Compliant | RoHS-compliant SOT-23 package (G-suffix variant available) supports environmentally regulated manufacturing |
| Tight Thermal Resistance | 556 °C/W junction-to-ambient on FR-5 board enables predictable thermal management in dense layouts |
| High-Density Packaging | 2.8 × 1.2 × 0.95 mm footprint minimizes PCB area usage in handheld and wearable devices |
| Stable Low-Current Regulation | Specified Zener voltage at 1 mA (10.2–11.6 V) and 20 mA (10.4–11.8 V) ensures consistency across operating ranges |
| Controlled Polarity Marking | Cathode band clearly identifies terminal 3, preventing orientation errors during automated placement |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5240BLT1 | 10 V nominal, ±5%, 225 mW, same SOT-23 package but higher 25 Ω Zz at 20 mA | Lower regulation voltage; suitable where 10 V reference suffices and tighter 10 V tolerance is acceptable | Select when system requires marginally lower clamping voltage and can accommodate higher dynamic impedance |
| BZX84C10LT1 | 10 V nominal, ±6%, identical thermal and ESD specs, same pinout and marking format (Z9) | Direct voltage step-down alternative with 1 V lower Zener voltage and slightly wider tolerance | Choose for legacy designs migrating from 10 V reference or where 1 V reduction improves headroom in supply rail design |
Compared with BZX84C11LT1, MMBZ5240BLT1 offers lower regulation voltage but higher impedance, while BZX84C10LT1 provides near-identical form-factor compatibility with reduced voltage and relaxed tolerance-both require verification of downstream circuit voltage margin.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of BZX84C11LT1?
The BZX84C11LT1 has a ±5% tolerance on its nominal 11 V Zener voltage, meaning the actual breakdown voltage falls between 10.4 V and 11.6 V when tested at 5 mA (IZT). This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official onsemi datasheet, and applies specifically to the BZX84C11LT1 variant-not the tighter-tolerance BZX84B series.
Does BZX84C11LT1 have a connection on Pin 2?
No, BZX84C11LT1 has no internal connection on Pin 2. As documented in the "Pinout" section on pages 3 and 7 of the datasheet, Pin 2 is explicitly designated "No Connection." It must remain unconnected on the PCB-neither tied to ground nor routed-to avoid unintended parasitic paths or assembly defects.
What is the maximum power dissipation of BZX84C11LT1 on FR-5 board?
The BZX84C11LT1 is rated for 225 mW total power dissipation on FR-5 board at 25°C ambient temperature, with linear derating of 1.8 mW/°C above that temperature. This value is specified in the "Maximum Ratings" table on page 1 and validated under JEDEC-standard board conditions (1.0 × 0.75 × 0.62 in.), not generic PCB substrates.
Is BZX84C11LT1 RoHS compliant?
Yes, BZX84C11LT1 is RoHS compliant when ordered with the "G" suffix (e.g., BZX84C11LT1G), indicating Pb-free packaging. The base part number BZX84C11LT1 may be leaded unless otherwise specified; however, the "G" variant is the industry-standard RoHS-compliant version referenced in the "Ordering Information" section on page 2 of the datasheet.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for BZX84C11LT1?
The BZX84C11LT1 exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.1 µA at VR = 8.5 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3. This parameter is measured at 25°C ambient and reflects the diode's off-state conduction-critical for low-power battery-operated systems where standby current must be minimized.
