Product details
Overview
BZX84C30W-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 30 V, 200 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOT-323 package, rated for 2 mA test current with 28–32 V zener voltage range, 80 Ω maximum zener impedance at 2 mA, and 0.1 µA maximum reverse leakage at 21 V, used for precision voltage regulation and reference in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84C30W-7 datasheet, BZX84C30W-7 pinout, BZX84C30W-7 application, or BZX84C30W-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±6.7%), thermal resistance (625 K/W), junction temperature range (−65 to +125 °C), RoHS-compliant matte tin plating, and ultra-small SOT-323 footprint for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load or supply conditions. It uses planar die construction for consistent parametric performance and low leakage, with specified zener voltage measured at IZT = 2 mA and temperature coefficient of +24.4 to +29.4 mV/°C.
The device exhibits 80 Ω dynamic impedance at 2 mA test current and 300 Ω at knee current (IZK = 0.5 mA), enabling predictable regulation behavior in feedback networks and voltage clamp circuits where low noise and tight voltage control are required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 30.0 V nominal, 28.0–32.0 V range at IZT = 2 mA - defines regulation setpoint with ±6.7% tolerance |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 200 mW at TA = 25 °C - limits continuous power handling on FR4 board with recommended pad layout |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 80 Ω max at IZT = 2 mA - determines output voltage stability under small-signal current variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA max at VR = 21 V - ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference paths |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 625 K/W - indicates junction-to-ambient temperature rise per watt dissipated on standard FR4 |
| Operating Temperature | −65 to +125 °C - supports industrial and automotive ambient environments without derating below −40 °C |
| Temperature Coefficient | +24.4 to +29.4 mV/°C at IZT = 5 mA - quantifies voltage drift with temperature in precision references |

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for BZX84C30W-7?
The BZX84C30W-7 has a nominal zener voltage of 30.0 V with a guaranteed range of 28.0–32.0 V at IZT = 2 mA. Breakdown begins near the minimum value (28.0 V) and is fully established by 32.0 V. It is not rated for sustained reverse voltage above 32.0 V without exceeding power limits.
Can BZX84C30W-7 be used in place of a 33 V Zener diode?
No - BZX84C30W-7 is specifically characterized for 30 V regulation (28–32 V range). Substituting it for a 33 V part (e.g., BZX84C33W) risks undershooting the required reference voltage by up to 3 V, potentially causing system-level errors in feedback loops or protection thresholds.
Is the SOT-323 package of BZX84C30W-7 compatible with reflow soldering per J-STD-020?
Yes - the SOT-323 package is rated for moisture sensitivity level 1 and supports standard Pb-free reflow profiles. Its matte tin finish ensures reliable wetting, and the 0.006 g mass enables uniform heating. Recommended pad layout is documented in Diodes' AP02001 application note.
Does BZX84C30W-7 have a specified capacitance value for high-frequency decoupling?
No - the datasheet does not specify junction capacitance for BZX84C30W-7. While typical Zeners in this family exhibit ~2–5 pF at 1 V reverse bias, this part is not characterized or optimized for RF bypass; dedicated ceramic capacitors remain appropriate for decoupling above 1 MHz.
