Product details
Overview
BZX84C6V2S-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 6.2 V, 200 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOT-363 package, with 5 mA test current, 10 Ω typical Zener impedance at 5 mA, ±0.4 mV/°C temperature coefficient, and reverse leakage ≤3 µA at 4 V. It provides precision voltage regulation in low-power biasing and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84C6V2S-7 datasheet, BZX84C6V2S-7 pinout, BZX84C6V2S-7 application, or BZX84C6V2S-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include nominal Zener voltage tolerance (5.8–6.6 V), thermal resistance (625 °C/W), ultra-small dual-diode footprint, and RoHS-compliant matte tin plating on Alloy 42 leadframe.
Technical Context
This dual-anode, common-cathode Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across load variations. Its planar die construction ensures repeatable Zener characteristics, while the SOT-363 package enables high-density PCB layouts with two independent Zener elements sharing one cathode terminal.
The device delivers 6.2 V regulation at 5 mA test current with tight 5.8–6.6 V min/max spread, low 10 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and minimal temperature drift (+0.4 to +3.7 mV/°C). It supports operation from –65 °C to +150 °C with 200 mW power dissipation derated linearly above 25 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 6.2 V nominal, 5.8–6.6 V range at 5 mA - defines regulated output voltage window under standard test conditions |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 200 mW at 25 °C ambient - sets maximum continuous power handling before thermal derating begins |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 10 Ω typical at 5 mA - determines output voltage stability under small-signal load transients |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤3.0 µA at 4.0 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in standby or high-impedance bias networks |
| Temperature Coefficient | +0.4 to +3.7 mV/°C - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius, critical for temperature-sensitive references |
| Package | SOT-363 - 6-pin ultra-small outline transistor package with dual Zener configuration and common cathode |
Pinout & Package
SOT-363 is a 6-pin, dual-Zener package with common cathode configuration. Pin 1 (NC), Pin 2 (Cathode), Pin 3 (Anode 1), Pin 4 (Anode 2), Pin 5 (Cathode), Pin 6 (NC) - pins 2 and 5 are internally connected as shared cathode terminals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | No Connect | Unbonded pad - no internal connection; must remain unconnected on PCB |
| Pin 2 | Cathode (Z1) | Common cathode terminal for first Zener element; electrically tied to Pin 5 |
| Pin 3 | Anode (Z1) | Input terminal for first Zener diode; reverse-biased to regulate 6.2 V |
| Pin 4 | Anode (Z2) | Input terminal for second Zener element; supports dual-regulation or redundancy |
| Pin 5 | Cathode (Z2) | Common cathode terminal for second Zener element; internally bonded to Pin 2 |
| Pin 6 | No Connect | Unbonded pad - no internal connection; must remain unconnected on PCB |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual Zener configuration | Two independent 6.2 V Zeners sharing one cathode - enables compact dual-reference or redundant bias design |
| Low Zener impedance | 10 Ω typical at 5 mA - improves regulation accuracy under varying load currents |
| RoHS-compliant plating | Matte tin finish over Alloy 42 leadframe - ensures solderability and environmental compliance without lead or halogens |
| Ultra-small footprint | SOT-363 package (2.2 × 1.3 × 0.9 mm) - saves board space in portable and high-density applications |
Applications
| Power Supply Reference | Overvoltage Clamp |

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage this Zener can withstand before breakdown?
The BZX84C6V2S-7 has a nominal Zener voltage of 6.2 V with guaranteed breakdown between 5.8 V and 6.6 V at 5 mA test current. It is not rated for forward conduction beyond 0.9 V at 10 mA, and sustained reverse voltage below 4.0 V results in ≤3.0 µA leakage - no hard "maximum non-breakdown" rating is specified, as it is designed to operate in controlled reverse breakdown.
Is this part suitable for use in automotive applications?
Yes - the BZX84C6V2S-7 operates across –65 °C to +150 °C and meets AEC-Q200 stress test requirements when qualified per Diodes Inc.'s automotive-grade variants (e.g., BZX84C6V2S-7-TP). Standard versions are widely used in non-safety-critical automotive subsystems such as body control modules and infotainment power rails.
How does the dual-Zener configuration affect PCB layout?
The SOT-363 package integrates two Zener diodes sharing Pins 2 and 5 as a common cathode. This allows single-point grounding for both elements, simplifying layout versus discrete dual-diode solutions. Pin 1 and Pin 6 must remain unconnected; recommended pad layout follows Diodes' AP02001 guidelines for thermal relief and solder wicking control.
Can this Zener replace the BZX84C6V8S in an existing design?
No - the BZX84C6V2S-7 (6.2 V) and BZX84C6V8S (6.8 V) differ by 0.6 V nominal Zener voltage and exhibit distinct temperature coefficients (+0.4 to +3.7 mV/°C vs. +1.2 to +4.5 mV/°C). Substitution would shift reference voltage by >9%, potentially violating tolerance margins in precision feedback loops or clamping thresholds.
