Product details
Overview
BZX84J-C27,135 from Nexperia is a ±5 % tolerance Zener diode in SOD323F (SC-90) package, rated for 27 V nominal regulation voltage at 2 mA test current, with 550 mW total power dissipation and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84J-C27,135 datasheet, BZX84J-C27,135 pinout, BZX84J-C27,135 application, or BZX84J-C27,135 equivalent, this device serves as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in low-power analog circuits, ECU power rails, and sensor interface protection where stable 27 V regulation under transient conditions is required.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 27 V reference across its terminals when biased above its knee voltage. Its differential resistance of 250 Ω at IZ = 2 mA ensures predictable regulation slope, while its temperature coefficient of +21.4 mV/K at IZ = 2 mA defines voltage drift behavior over temperature.
The device supports non-repetitive surge handling up to 1 W peak reverse power (at 100 µs pulse width), and exhibits 73 pF junction capacitance at 0 V bias-critical for high-frequency noise suppression and transient response in feedback loops.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage | 27 V at IZ = 2 mA - precise regulation point for 24 V system rail clamping and reference generation |
| Tolerance | ±5 % - allows design margin for 25.65 V to 28.35 V operation without binning |
| Differential Resistance | 250 Ω at IZ = 2 mA - determines load regulation error under varying current draw |
| Total Power Dissipation | 550 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power in PCB-mounted thermal condition |
| Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance | 230 K/W - defines temperature rise per watt on standard FR4 board, limiting usable power at elevated ambient |
| Non-Repetitive Peak Reverse Power | 40 W at tp = 100 µs - enables transient overvoltage absorption in automotive load-dump scenarios |
| Reverse Current @ 20 V | < 0.05 µA - ensures minimal leakage in standby mode, critical for battery-powered systems |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C27,115 | Same 27 V rating and ±5 % tolerance, but in SOT23 package (larger footprint, higher Rth(j-a) = 300 K/W) | Lower power density and reduced surge capability (PZSM = 25 W vs. 40 W); suitable only for non-automotive, low-transient environments | Select when legacy SOT23 layout compatibility is required and thermal derating can accommodate higher junction temperature rise. |
| MMSZ5256ET1G | 27 V nominal, ±5 %, but in SOD-123 package; higher Ptot = 500 mW (vs. 550 mW), rdiff = 350 Ω (vs. 250 Ω) | Higher leakage (IR ≤ 0.1 µA vs. ≤ 0.05 µA) and no AEC-Q101 qualification-limits use to commercial-grade applications only | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer designs where automotive qualification and ultra-low leakage are not mandatory. |
Compared with BZX84J-C27,135, the BZX84-C27,115 offers identical electrical specs but inferior thermal and surge performance due to larger package, while MMSZ5256ET1G trades AEC-Q101 compliance and tighter leakage for broader commercial availability-making the J-series optimal for automotive and high-reliability industrial use.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current the BZX84J-C27,135 can sustain without exceeding its 550 mW power limit?
At 27 V Zener voltage, the absolute maximum continuous reverse current is 20.4 mA (550 mW ÷ 27 V), assuming ambient temperature ≤ 25 °C and proper PCB thermal relief. Derating is required above 25 °C per the 230 K/W thermal resistance specification.
How does the +21.4 mV/K temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over the automotive temperature range?
Over -40 °C to +125 °C (165 K span), the voltage shift is +3.53 V (21.4 mV/K × 165 K), resulting in a regulation range of 23.47 V to 30.53 V. This must be accounted for in system-level tolerance budgets, especially in precision reference applications.
Can the BZX84J-C27,135 be used in parallel for higher power dissipation?
No-Zener diodes exhibit negative temperature coefficients below ~5 V and positive above, but even within the same batch, slight VZ mismatches cause current hogging. Parallel operation is not recommended; use a single higher-power device or active regulation instead.
Is the SOD323F package compatible with standard reflow soldering profiles for lead-free assembly?
Yes-the device is qualified for lead-free reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020, with peak temperature up to 260 °C. The recommended footprint matches Nexperia's SC-90 land pattern (0.5 mm pad width, 0.6 mm spacing), ensuring reliable solder joint formation.
