Product details
Overview
BZX84J-C30,115 from Nexperia is a 30 V ±5 % Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD323F (SC-90) surface-mount package, rated for 550 mW total power dissipation and 150 °C junction temperature, used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in automotive power rails and industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84J-C30,115 datasheet, BZX84J-C30,115 pinout, BZX84J-C30,115 application, or BZX84J-C30,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5 %), non-repetitive peak reverse power (40 W at tp = 100 μs), differential resistance (66 Ω at IZ = 2 mA), AEC-Q101 qualification, and thermal resistance (230 K/W junction-to-ambient).
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 30 V regulation under controlled current conditions. Its design supports low-noise voltage referencing with 66 Ω differential resistance and a positive temperature coefficient of +29.4 mV/K at IZ = 2 mA, enabling predictable drift compensation in temperature-sensitive circuits.
It is qualified per AEC-Q101 for automotive use and features robust surge capability: 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power at 100 μs pulse width, with maximum reverse current of 1 A under surge conditions. The SC-90 package ensures compact placement on high-density PCBs while maintaining thermal performance via optimized solder-point thermal resistance (55 K/W).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 30 V nominal, ±5 % tolerance - defines precise clamping level for 28–32 V regulation window |
| Differential Resistance (rdiff) | 66 Ω at IZ = 2 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | +29.4 mV/K at IZ = 2 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius for thermal design margining |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 550 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - sets continuous DC power limit on standard FR4 PCB |
| Non-repetitive Peak Reverse Power (PZSM) | 40 W at tp = 100 μs - enables transient overvoltage suppression without failure |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C maximum - defines upper thermal operating boundary for reliability modeling |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 0.05 µA at VR = 22.8 V - specifies leakage level below breakdown threshold |
Pinout & Package
The BZX84J-C30,115 uses the SOD323F (SC-90) ultra-small surface-mount plastic package: 2.7 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.95 mm body, 0.5 mm lead pitch, cathode marked by a bar on the top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to regulated output node; marking bar identifies this terminal; carries reverse current during Zener operation |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; completes reverse-bias path for voltage reference function |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing |
| Low differential resistance | 66 Ω at 2 mA - minimizes output voltage variation under changing load current |
| Controlled temperature coefficient | +29.4 mV/K - enables predictable thermal drift behavior for compensated reference designs |
| High surge robustness | 40 W non-repetitive peak power at 100 μs - withstands common automotive load-dump transients |
| Small-form-factor SMD package | SOD323F footprint - supports high-density layout in space-constrained modules like ECUs and sensors |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stabilizing 5 V microcontroller supply rail against battery voltage fluctuations and load-dump spikes in BCM subassemblies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener shunt regulator providing passive overvoltage clamping and reference voltage generation. Use Value: Maintains MCU operation within safe voltage range using only 30 V Zener breakdown and 40 W surge rating, eliminating need for active regulators in auxiliary rails. |

Use Value: Delivers stable 30 V reference for hysteresis-setting resistors, ensuring repeatable 2.95 V reset threshold across temperature and unit variance. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C30,115 | Same Zener voltage and package, but ±5 % tolerance and no AEC-Q101 qualification | Limited to commercial-grade consumer or non-safety-critical industrial use | Select when automotive qualification is unnecessary and cost sensitivity is high |
| MMSZ5261ET1G | 30 V ±5 %, SOD-123 package, 500 mW Ptot, 30 Ω rdiff at 20 mA - lower differential resistance but larger footprint | Better regulation accuracy under higher currents; less suitable for ultra-dense layouts | Choose when tighter load regulation is required and board space permits larger SOD-123 |
Compared with BZX84J-C30,115, the BZX84-C30,115 lacks automotive qualification and has identical electrical specs but reduced reliability assurance, while MMSZ5261ET1G offers lower rdiff at higher test current but requires more PCB area and lacks AEC-Q101 validation.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous forward current for BZX84J-C30,115?
The absolute maximum forward current is 250 mA per the limiting values table. However, sustained forward conduction is not its intended operating mode; it is designed for reverse-bias Zener regulation. Forward voltage is specified at 100 mA (1.1 V max), but continuous forward operation above 10 mA risks thermal overstress due to low thermal resistance and limited power handling in forward direction.
How does the ±5 % tolerance affect regulation accuracy in a 30 V reference circuit?
The ±5 % tolerance means the actual Zener voltage falls between 28.5 V and 31.5 V at IZ = 2 mA. For precision reference use, this requires system-level calibration or trimming. In overvoltage protection, it defines the clamping band: devices will begin conducting significantly between 28.5 V and 31.5 V, making the worst-case trip point 28.5 V under minimum VZ condition.
Can BZX84J-C30,115 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 connection leads to thermal runaway and premature failure. For higher power, use a single higher-rated device or active regulation; do not parallel BZX84J-C30,115 units.
Is the SOD323F package compatible with standard reflow soldering profiles?
Yes - Nexperia explicitly recommends reflow soldering only for this package. The device is qualified for JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited floor life) and supports peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C. Footprint dimensions (0.5 mm pad width, 0.6 mm length) match IPC-7351B generic SOD323F land pattern requirements.
