Product details
Overview
BZX84W-B75X from Nexperia is a ±2% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode rated for 75 V nominal working voltage, 275 mW total power dissipation, and 200 mA maximum forward current in a SOT323 (SC-70) surface-mount package. It provides precise voltage reference and overvoltage protection in compact power management circuits such as DC-DC feedback loops and I/O rail clamping.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84W-B75X datasheet, BZX84W-B75X pinout, BZX84W-B75X application, or BZX84W-B75X equivalent, this part supports high-frequency regulation, low-leakage reverse bias operation at 0.7 × VZnom, and thermal stability up to 150 °C junction temperature in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown with a typical differential resistance of 500 Ω at IZ = 2 mA and exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +80.2 mV/K at that current. Its non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation reaches 40 W for 100 µs pulses, enabling transient surge suppression.
The device features low junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (455 K/W on FR4 PCB), 0.2 pF capacitance at 1 MHz and 0 V bias, and reverse leakage current ≤50 nA at VR = 52.5 V (0.7 × 75 V), supporting stable regulation in noise-sensitive analog and mixed-signal systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage | 75 V ±2 % - defines precise clamping threshold for 75 V rail protection or reference |
| Total Power Dissipation | 275 mW - maximum continuous steady-state power handling on standard FR4 PCB |
| Forward Voltage | ≤0.9 V at IF = 10 mA - ensures low-loss conduction in series polarity configurations |
| Differential Resistance | 500 Ω at IZ = 2 mA - determines regulation stiffness and output impedance under load variation |

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, higher max leakage (50 nA vs. same test condition), identical package and power rating | Suitable where cost sensitivity outweighs precision; less suitable for closed-loop feedback requiring tight VZ stability | Select when budget constraints dominate and system-level calibration compensates for wider tolerance |
| MMSZ5265BT1G | 75 V ±5 %, SOD-123 package (larger footprint), 500 mW Ptot, 300 Ω rdif at 20 mA | Better power handling but incompatible with ultra-dense layouts; higher thermal mass delays transient response | Choose when board space permits larger package and higher continuous power is required beyond 275 mW |
Compared with BZX84W-C75, the BZX84W-B75X offers tighter voltage control critical for feedback accuracy; versus MMSZ5265BT1G, it trades power headroom for miniaturization and faster transient clamping due to lower capacitance and thermal mass.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for BZX84W-B75X?
The nominal Zener voltage is 75 V with ±2 % tolerance, meaning guaranteed breakdown occurs between 73.5 V and 76.5 V at IZ = 2 mA. The absolute maximum non-repetitive reverse voltage is limited by the 40 W pulse rating-exceeding 76.5 V continuously risks thermal runaway unless power dissipation remains within 275 mW.
Can BZX84W-B75X be used in place of a 75 V Zener with ±5 % tolerance?
Yes, BZX84W-B75X is pin- and form-factor compatible with ±5 % variants like BZX84W-C75 and shares identical SOT323 packaging, thermal characteristics, and limiting values. Its tighter tolerance improves regulation accuracy but does not alter mounting, soldering, or layout requirements.
What is the significance of the 'n.c.' pin in the SOT323 package?
Pin 2 is electrically unconnected and serves only as a mechanical anchor for the leadframe. It must remain unconnected in PCB layout and assembly to prevent unintended coupling, solder bridging, or thermal path disruption. No trace or pad should contact this terminal.
How does thermal resistance affect real-world power handling on a standard PCB?
With Rth(j-a) = 455 K/W on FR4 single-sided copper, dissipating 275 mW raises junction temperature by 125 °C above ambient. At 25 °C ambient, Tj reaches 150 °C-the absolute maximum-so derating is required above 25 °C ambient to maintain reliability and avoid permanent degradation.
