Product details
Overview
BZX84W-B2V7-Q from Nexperia is a ±2% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode in SOT323 (SC-70) package, rated for 2.7 V nominal Zener voltage at 5 mA, 275 mW total power dissipation, and qualified to AEC-Q101 for automotive use. It provides stable reference voltage in low-power biasing, overvoltage clamping, and voltage sensing circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84W-B2V7-Q datasheet, BZX84W-B2V7-Q pinout, BZX84W-B2V7-Q application, or BZX84W-B2V7-Q equivalent, this page delivers verified Zener parameters, automotive-grade reliability data, SOT323 terminal mapping, and direct replacement guidance for precision 2.7 V regulation.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator with reverse-biased Zener breakdown at 2.7 V (±2%) under 5 mA test current. Its differential resistance is ≤600 Ω at 1 mA and ≤100 Ω at 5 mA, enabling stable regulation across load variations.
It features a negative temperature coefficient of −2.0 mV/K at 5 mA, ensuring predictable drift behavior in ambient ranges from −55 °C to +150 °C. The device supports non-repetitive surge capability up to 40 W for 100 µs pulses and exhibits 6 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz and 0 V reverse bias.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.65 V to 2.75 V at IZ = 5 mA - tight ±2% tolerance enables accurate 2.7 V reference in feedback loops |
| Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 275 mW at Tamb = 25 °C on FR4 PCB - defines maximum continuous DC or average pulsed power handling |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | ≤100 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - low dynamic impedance ensures minimal output voltage variation under load changes |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 20 µA at VR = 1 V - low leakage preserves efficiency in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Capacitance (Cd) | 6 pF at f = 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - supports stable operation in high-frequency clamp and timing applications |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤0.9 V at IF = 10 mA - enables predictable forward conduction in dual-direction protection schemes |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 455 K/W on standard FR4 - determines junction-to-ambient temperature rise under steady-state power |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT323 (SC-70), leadless surface-mount plastic package with 3 terminals, footprint per Figure 9 (reflow) and Figure 10 (wave soldering).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode (A) | Forward current entry point; connected to lower-potential node in Zener regulation configuration |
| 2 | Not Connected (n.c.) | Internally unconnected terminal - must remain floating; no PCB trace or solder mask relief required |
| 3 | Cathode (K) | Zener breakdown terminal; connected to higher-potential node and voltage reference output point |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive underhood and infotainment systems requiring extended temperature and reliability compliance |
| ±2% Zener voltage tolerance | Reduces need for post-production trimming in precision reference designs, improving yield and consistency |
| SOT323 ultra-small footprint | 1.3 mm × 2.2 mm body size enables dense layout in space-constrained modules like ADAS sensors and ECUs |
| Low 6 pF junction capacitance | Minimizes signal distortion in RF detector biasing and high-speed transient suppression paths |
| 40 W non-repetitive surge rating | Withstands ESD and load-dump transients without degradation when used with appropriate series impedance |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84W-C2V7-Q | ±5% tolerance (2.5 V–2.9 V range) vs. ±2% (2.65 V–2.75 V); identical package, power, and thermal specs | Acceptable where system-level calibration compensates for wider VZ spread; not suitable for closed-loop feedback without margin | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision requirement and board-level trimming is available |
| MMSZ4678T1G | 2.7 V nominal, ±5%, SOD-123 package (larger footprint), 500 mW Ptot, 300 Ω rdif at 20 mA | Higher power and larger size suit industrial mains-connected designs; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Choose only for non-automotive applications needing higher surge margin or legacy SOD-123 compatibility |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current the BZX84W-B2V7-Q can sustain at 25 °C?
The device does not specify a maximum continuous reverse current; instead, its safe operating limit is defined by total power dissipation. At 25 °C ambient on a standard FR4 PCB, it sustains up to 275 mW, corresponding to approximately 102 mA at 2.7 V (P = V × I). Exceeding this causes junction temperature rise beyond 150 °C.
Can BZX84W-B2V7-Q be used in place of a 2.7 V TL431-based shunt regulator?
No - the BZX84W-B2V7-Q is a passive two-terminal Zener diode, lacking the active error amplifier, reference, and adjustable output of the TL431. It provides fixed 2.7 V regulation only under defined current conditions and cannot drive loads or maintain regulation across wide current ranges like the TL431.
Is the n.c. pin (Pin 2) electrically isolated or internally bonded?
Pin 2 is confirmed as not connected (n.c.) - it has no internal bond wire or die connection. The datasheet explicitly states "not connected" in Table 2, and the SOT323 outline drawing shows no internal routing to Terminal 2. It must remain unconnected on PCB layout.
How does the −2.0 mV/K temperature coefficient affect long-term voltage stability in automotive environments?
At 5 mA, the coefficient means VZ decreases by 2.0 mV per Kelvin rise. Over a −40 °C to +125 °C range (165 K ΔT), total drift is −330 mV - but since nominal VZ is 2.7 V, this represents ~12.2% relative change. System design must accommodate this via compensation or operating-point selection within narrower ambient bands.
