Product details
Overview
BZX84C6V8TS-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a triple-surface-mount Zener diode array with three isolated 6.8 V ±5% Zener elements in a single SOT-363 package, rated for 200 mW total power dissipation, 15 Ω typical Zener impedance at 5 mA, and reverse current ≤2.0 µA at 4.0 V, used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in compact DC power rails.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84C6V8TS-7-F datasheet, BZX84C6V8TS-7-F pinout, BZX84C6V8TS-7-F application, or BZX84C6V8TS-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include nominal Zener voltage (6.8 V), Zener impedance (15 Ω @ 5 mA), maximum reverse current (2.0 µA @ 4.0 V), thermal resistance (625 °C/W), and triple-diode isolation in ultra-small SOT-363.
Technical Context
This device integrates three independent Zener diodes sharing only mechanical packaging-no internal electrical connection-enabling simultaneous regulation or clamping at identical or mixed voltage thresholds. Each element operates with a specified Zener test current of 5 mA and exhibits a temperature coefficient of +1.2 to +4.5 mV/°C.
The SOT-363 package supports high-density PCB layouts with 0.006 g mass and JEDEC Level 1 moisture sensitivity. Thermal derating begins at 25 °C ambient, reducing maximum power linearly to zero at 150 °C junction temperature per the published derating curve.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage | 6.8 V nominal, 6.4–7.2 V range at 5 mA - ensures stable reference within ±5% tolerance under standard bias |
| Zener Impedance | 15 Ω typical at 5 mA - low dynamic resistance enables tight regulation under varying load current |
| Max Reverse Current | 2.0 µA at 4.0 V - confirms sharp knee and low leakage below breakdown threshold |
| Power Dissipation | 200 mW total (per package) - limits thermal rise on FR4 board with recommended pad layout |
| Thermal Resistance | 625 °C/W junction-to-ambient - defines temperature rise per watt; requires thermal-aware layout |
| Operating Temp | −65 to +150 °C - supports industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
Pinout & Package
SOT-363 (SC-70-6) surface-mount package with six terminals: three anodes and three cathodes arranged as three isolated diode pairs. Molded plastic case meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating and RoHS-compliant matte tin plating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Anode of Diode 1 | Current entry point for first Zener element; connects to regulated node |
| C1 | Cathode of Diode 1 | Reference/output node for first Zener; ties to ground or bias rail |
| A2 | Anode of Diode 2 | Independent current entry for second Zener; electrically isolated from A1/C1 |
| C2 | Cathode of Diode 2 | Second independent reference node; enables dual-rail clamping |
| A3 | Anode of Diode 3 | Third isolated anode; allows triple-voltage monitoring or redundancy |
| C3 | Cathode of Diode 3 | Third independent cathode node; supports multi-point regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple isolated Zener elements | Enables three independent voltage references or clamping paths in one footprint-reduces board area by ~60% vs. discrete SOD-323 devices |
| Low Zener impedance (15 Ω) | Minimizes output voltage variation under ±10 mA load shifts-critical for analog sensor biasing |
| SOT-363 package | 0.006 g mass and 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm footprint-suited for space-constrained wearables and IoT edge nodes |
| RoHS-compliant & "Green" | Halogen-free molding compound (Date Code UO+) and matte tin plating-meets IPC-J-STD-609A Class 1 requirements |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | USB-C Power Delivery Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stabilizing excitation voltage for bridge-based pressure sensors in factory automation PLC modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode array provides precise 6.8 V reference for ADC driver op-amps and protects input pins from ESD-induced transients. Use Value: Triple isolation allows separate reference, bias, and clamp functions-eliminates need for three discrete 0805 Zeners and saves 2.1 mm² PCB area. | Use Scenario: Clamping CC1/CC2 lines in USB-C receptacles against 15 kV HBM ESD events during hot-plug insertion. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Each diode clamps one signal line to 6.8 V while the third protects VCONN or sideband use (SBU) pins. Use Value: 2.0 µA leakage at 4.0 V ensures no signal integrity degradation during normal 0–5 V signaling; 15 Ω Zz maintains fast transient response. |
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Medical Infusion Pump Power Monitor |
Use Scenario: Regulating 6.8 V supply for LIN transceiver ICs and microcontroller I/O buffers in door module ECUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides local voltage reference and overvoltage protection for 12 V battery-supplied subsystems operating across −40 to +125 °C. Use Value: −65 to +150 °C rating and 625 °C/W RθJA allow direct mounting without heatsink-reducing BOM count and assembly steps. | Use Scenario: Monitoring 24 V DC motor drive rail for undervoltage lockout and overvoltage shutdown in Class II medical equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One diode sets UVLO threshold at 6.8 V via resistor divider; second clamps MCU reset line; third guards analog front-end inputs. Use Value: Tight 6.4–7.2 V tolerance ensures consistent trip points across production lots-meeting IEC 60601-1 safety margin requirements. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode array applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5235BS-7-F | Single-element 6.8 V Zener in SOT-323; 100 mW rating; 10 Ω Zz @ 20 mA | Not triple-isolated; lower power handling; higher test current shifts regulation point | Choose when only one reference is needed and board space permits larger pitch |
| BZX84C6V8LT1G | Single-element 6.8 V Zener in SOT-23; 350 mW rating; 10 Ω Zz @ 5 mA; different marking and moisture sensitivity (Level 1 vs. Level 3) | No multi-diode integration; higher power but larger footprint; not drop-in compatible | Prefer for higher-power single-rail designs where thermal margin >100 mW is required |
Compared with BZX84C6V8TS-7-F, MMBZ5235BS-7-F offers lower Zener impedance but lacks triple isolation and halogen-free compliance, while BZX84C6V8LT1G delivers higher power but increases PCB area by 45% and requires requalification for moisture-sensitive assembly.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse voltage this device can withstand before breakdown?
The BZX84C6V8TS-7-F has a nominal Zener voltage of 6.8 V with a guaranteed range of 6.4–7.2 V at 5 mA test current. Its reverse breakdown is sharply defined, and operation below 4.0 V ensures leakage remains ≤2.0 µA-well within safe non-conduction limits for signal-line protection.
Can all three diodes be used simultaneously without thermal interaction?
Yes-each diode element is electrically isolated within the SOT-363 package. Thermal coupling is minimal due to shared die substrate, but with total package power limited to 200 mW and individual Zener currents typically <5 mA, self-heating remains within specification across −65 to +150 °C ambient.
Is this part suitable for bidirectional ESD protection?
No-this is a unidirectional Zener diode array. Each element conducts only when cathode voltage exceeds anode by ≥6.8 V. For bidirectional protection (e.g., USB data lines), external series resistors and complementary diodes or dedicated TVS arrays are required.
Does the "-7-F" suffix indicate tape-and-reel packaging and RoHS compliance?
Yes-the "-7-F" suffix denotes 3000-unit tape-and-reel packaging per Diodes Inc. ordering convention and confirms lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction with matte tin plating and green (halogen-free) molding compound for Date Codes UO (2007 week 40) and newer.
