Product details
Overview
BZX84C39Q-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is an automotive-grade 39 V, 2 mA Zener diode in SOT23 package with 350 mW power dissipation, ±5% voltage tolerance (37.0–41.0 V), and 130 Ω dynamic impedance at test current, used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in automotive power rails and sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84C39Q-7-F datasheet, BZX84C39Q-7-F pinout, BZX84C39Q-7-F application, or BZX84C39Q-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (357 °C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification, reverse leakage (<0.1 µA at 33.4 V), and SOT23 footprint compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. It features planar die construction for consistent parametric performance and low leakage, with a nominal temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C near 39 V.
The device is rated for continuous operation from −65 °C to +150 °C and exhibits 350 mW power dissipation when leads are held at ambient temperature. Its 130 Ω Zener impedance at 2 mA ensures predictable regulation behavior in feedback loops and clamp circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 39 V nominal, 37.0–41.0 V range at 2 mA - defines clamping threshold for overvoltage protection |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 350 mW - maximum continuous power at ambient-temperature terminals, enabling compact PCB layout |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 130 Ω at 2 mA - determines regulation stiffness and output voltage deviation under load change |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <0.1 µA at 33.4 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 357 °C/W - quantifies junction-to-ambient heat rise per watt, critical for derating above 25 °C |
| Temperature Coefficient | −3.5 mV/°C - predicts voltage drift with ambient temperature, supporting stable reference design |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive electronics per stress-test requirements including HTOL, TCT, and ESD |

| Anode (Pin 1) | Forward conduction terminal / cathode reference ground | Connected to system ground or lower-potential node in shunt regulator configuration |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Zener breakdown terminal / voltage reference output | Connected to regulated rail or input node requiring clamping; carries full Zener current |
| No-Connect (Pin 3) | Internal die attachment pad | Electrically isolated; serves mechanical support only-must not be connected in circuit |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ4702T1G | 39 V nominal, 500 mW PD, 100 Ω ZZT, SOD-123 package | Larger footprint; higher power but less suitable for dense automotive layouts | Select when higher surge energy handling is required and board space permits larger package |
| BZX84-C39-7-F | Identical electrical specs, non-automotive grade, same SOT23 package | Not AEC-Q101 qualified; unsuitable for automotive safety-critical systems | Select for cost-sensitive industrial or consumer designs where automotive qualification is unnecessary |
Compared with MMSZ4702T1G and BZX84-C39-7-F, BZX84C39Q-7-F uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, SOT23 footprint, and guaranteed low-leakage performance - making it the only option qualified for under-hood automotive voltage reference and clamp functions.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for BZX84C39Q-7-F?
The BZX84C39Q-7-F has a nominal Zener voltage of 39 V with a guaranteed range of 37.0–41.0 V at 2 mA test current. Breakdown begins within this band; operation below 33.4 V (the rated VR) ensures <0.1 µA reverse leakage, preserving low-power integrity in standby modes.
Is BZX84C39Q-7-F compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes - the device uses matte tin finish over Alloy 42 leadframe and is fully RoHS 3 compliant (2015/863/EU). It meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity Level 1 and is rated for standard Pb-free reflow up to 260 °C peak, with no pre-bake required.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over temperature?
With a specified temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C, the Zener voltage decreases by approximately 0.42 V across a 120 °C range (−40 to +80 °C). This drift is linear and predictable, allowing compensation in precision reference designs using matched NTC networks or digital calibration.
Can BZX84C39Q-7-F replace BZX84C39-7-F in existing designs?
Yes - electrically identical except for AEC-Q101 qualification and green compound compliance. The Q-suffix variant adds automotive reliability testing and halogen-free materials but maintains identical pinout, marking, and thermal characteristics, enabling drop-in replacement where automotive qualification is mandated.
