Product details
Overview
BZX84W-B75F from Nexperia is a ±2% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode with 75 V nominal breakdown voltage, 275 mW total power dissipation, and SOT323 (SC-70) surface-mount package. It provides precise voltage reference and overvoltage protection in low-power analog circuits, power supply feedback loops, and voltage clamp stages.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84W-B75F datasheet, BZX84W-B75F pinout, BZX84W-B75F application, or BZX84W-B75F equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal behavior, terminal configuration, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts for design-in and sourcing decisions.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse-biased breakdown mode to maintain stable 75 V regulation at IZ = 5 mA, with differential resistance of 500 Ω and temperature coefficient of +80.2 mV/K. Its non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation reaches 40 W for 100 µs pulses.
Designed for high-frequency stability, it exhibits only 0.2 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz and 0 V bias, and supports ambient operation from −55 °C to +150 °C with maximum junction temperature of 150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 75 V nominal, ±2% tolerance (73.5–76.5 V), specified at IZ = 5 mA - ensures tight regulation in precision reference designs |
| Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 275 mW at Tamb = 25 °C on FR4 PCB - defines continuous DC power handling under standard board layout |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 500 Ω max at IZ = 2 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 50 nA max at VR = 0.7 × VZnom = 52.5 V - guarantees low leakage in standby or high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Capacitance (Cd) | 0.2 pF at f = 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - enables minimal signal distortion in RF clamping and fast transient suppression |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.9 V max at IF = 10 mA - confirms low conduction loss when used in forward-biased protection paths |
| Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 455 K/W in free air on FR4 - quantifies self-heating impact under sustained power dissipation |
Pinout & Package
The BZX84W-B75F is housed in a leadless SOT323 (SC-70) plastic surface-mount package measuring 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm × 0.95 mm, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and reflow 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.) | Electrically isolated internal pad - must remain unconnected in PCB layout to avoid parasitic coupling |
| 3 | Cathode (K) | Reverse-bias terminal; tied to regulated voltage node and current-limiting resistor in standard shunt regulator topology |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±2% Zener voltage tolerance | Enables tighter output voltage control than ±5% variants, reducing need for post-regulation trimming in feedback networks |
| 0.2 pF junction capacitance | Minimizes high-frequency loading in RF detector circuits and fast-switching clamp applications |
| 40 W non-repetitive surge rating | Supports transient overvoltage suppression up to 100 µs without degradation, suitable for ESD and surge events |
| −55 °C to +150 °C operating range | Validates reliability in automotive under-hood, industrial motor drives, and outdoor power electronics |
| SOT323 footprint compatibility | Ensures drop-in replacement with industry-standard SC-70 land patterns, simplifying layout reuse across voltage grades |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84W-C75 | ±5% tolerance (70–79 V), identical package and Ptot | Accepts wider output variation; less suitable for precision feedback but lower cost | Select when regulation accuracy <±3% suffices and BOM cost optimization is prioritized |
| MMSZ5265B | 75 V ±5%, SOD-123 package, 500 mW Ptot, 100 Ω rdif | Higher power handling and lower impedance, but 2× larger footprint and higher Cd (4 pF) | Choose for higher-current clamping where board space allows and faster regulation response is needed |
Compared with BZX84W-C75, the BZX84W-B75F offers tighter voltage control critical for closed-loop systems; versus MMSZ5265B, it trades power capacity and impedance for ultra-low capacitance and compact SOT323 integration in space-constrained designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current the BZX84W-B75F can sustain at 75 V?
The device is not rated for continuous operation at its full Zener voltage. At 75 V, the maximum steady-state reverse current is limited by Ptot = 275 mW, yielding IZ ≤ 3.67 mA. Exceeding this risks thermal runaway; practical designs limit IZ to 1–5 mA with appropriate series resistance and board thermal relief.
Can BZX84W-B75F be used in place of a 75 V TVS diode for ESD protection?
No - while it handles 40 W non-repetitive surges, its 50 nA leakage at 52.5 V and lack of defined clamping voltage make it unsuitable as a primary ESD protector. Dedicated TVS diodes (e.g., PESD5V0S1BA) offer lower dynamic impedance, guaranteed clamping, and IEC 61000-4-2 compliance.
How does the +80.2 mV/K temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over temperature?
At 75 V nominal, +80.2 mV/K means VZ increases ~1.2 V over a 15 °C rise. In a 0–70 °C ambient range, total drift is ~5.6 V - acceptable for coarse references but requires compensation (e.g., thermistor network) in precision applications demanding <±0.5% stability.
Is Pin 2 (n.c.) required to be left floating on the PCB?
Yes - Pin 2 is internally unconnected and must remain unattached in layout. Connecting it to ground or any net introduces parasitic capacitance and potential leakage paths, degrading high-frequency performance and increasing reverse leakage beyond the specified 50 nA.
