Product details
Overview
BZX84W-B7V5F from Nexperia is a ±2 % tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode in SOT323 (SC-70) package, rated for 7.5 V nominal Zener voltage at 5 mA, 80 Ω differential resistance, and 4.0 mV/K temperature coefficient. It delivers stable reference voltage in low-power analog circuits, power supply feedback loops, and overvoltage protection nodes operating up to 150 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84W-B7V5F datasheet, BZX84W-B7V5F pinout, BZX84W-B7V5F application, or BZX84W-B7V5F equivalent, this page provides verified Zener voltage, thermal resistance, reverse leakage, forward voltage, and package footprint data essential for precision voltage reference design, PCB layout, and high-frequency regulation validation.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a tightly controlled 7.35 V to 7.65 V working voltage range at IZ = 5 mA. Its 80 Ω differential resistance ensures minimal output impedance under load variation, while the +4.0 mV/K temperature coefficient enables predictable drift compensation in mid-voltage reference designs.
Designed for surface-mount use on FR4 PCBs with single-sided copper, it sustains 275 mW total power dissipation and withstands non-repetitive 40 W surge pulses (100 µs). The 150 °C maximum junction temperature supports operation in industrial ambient environments up to +150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 7.35 V to 7.65 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback and clamping |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 80 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation error |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | +4.0 mV/K at IZ = 5 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius for thermal stability analysis |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1 µA max at VR = 5 V - limits standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.9 V max at IF = 10 mA - sets minimum forward conduction threshold for polarity-sensitive protection |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 275 mW at Tamb = 25 °C on FR4 - constrains continuous DC power handling in compact layouts |
| Junction-to-Ambient Rth(j-a) | 455 K/W - determines thermal rise per watt for reliability margining on standard PCBs |
Pinout & Package
SOT323 (SC-70) leadless plastic surface-mount package with 3 terminals, 1.3 mm × 1.8 mm footprint, and 0.65 mm pitch. Designed for reflow soldering using standard 0.55 mm × 0.5 mm pad dimensions per terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode (A) | Forward-biased terminal; connects to lower-potential node in Zener regulation configuration |
| 2 | Not Connected (n.c.) | Internally unconnected; must remain floating-no PCB trace or thermal pad connection |
| 3 | Cathode (K) | Reverse-biased terminal; connects to higher-potential node and serves as regulated output reference |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±2 % Zener voltage tolerance | Enables tighter regulation accuracy than ±5 % variants, reducing need for post-calibration in precision references |
| Low 80 Ω differential resistance | Maintains <1 % output deviation across ±1 mA load current change, critical for stable feedback paths |
| +4.0 mV/K temperature coefficient | Provides predictable positive drift for compensation against negative-coefficient components in mixed-technology circuits |
| 150 °C maximum junction temperature | Supports uninterrupted operation in under-hood, motor drive, and industrial control enclosures without derating |
| 1 µA reverse leakage at 5 V | Minimizes quiescent current draw in battery-powered voltage monitors and always-on supervisor circuits |
Applications
| Power Supply Feedback Reference | Overvoltage Clamp Protection |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Regulating output voltage in isolated flyback or buck-boost converters via optocoupler-coupled feedback loop. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode provides stable 7.5 V reference to TL431 cathode or comparator input, setting precise output setpoint. Use Value: Tight ±2 % tolerance and low 80 Ω rdif ensure <±0.5 % output regulation accuracy across line/load/temperature variations. |
Use Scenario: Protecting microcontroller I/O pins or ADC inputs from transient overvoltage events exceeding 7.5 V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as shunt clamp between signal line and ground, conducting only when voltage exceeds VZ. Use Value: 1 µA leakage at 5 V prevents signal distortion; 40 W non-repetitive surge rating absorbs ESD and inductive spikes without failure. |
| High-Frequency Bias Network | Temperature-Compensated Reference Generator |
|
Use Scenario: Establishing DC bias points in RF amplifier stages or high-speed op-amp circuits requiring low-capacitance references. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-noise, low-capacitance (4 pF) voltage reference in signal path without loading sensitive nodes. Use Value: 4 pF diode capacitance at 1 MHz minimizes phase shift and bandwidth degradation in >100 MHz signal chains. |
Use Scenario: Generating a stable reference voltage in instrumentation amplifiers where thermal drift must be actively compensated. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Paired with NTC thermistor or complementary transistor to offset system-level temperature drift. Use Value: +4.0 mV/K coefficient enables direct cancellation of −2.2 mV/K op-amp input offset drift in precision sensor front-ends. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84W-C7V5 | ±5 % tolerance (7.0–7.9 V), identical package and thermal specs | Acceptable where ±0.5 V regulation window suffices; higher leakage (1.5 µA at 5 V) | Select for cost-sensitive designs where tighter voltage accuracy is not required |
| MMSZ5236B | ±5 % tolerance, SOD-123 package, 90 Ω rdif, 1 µA leakage at 5 V | Larger footprint (2.7 × 1.4 mm vs. 1.3 × 1.8 mm); lower thermal resistance (350 K/W) | Choose when board space allows larger package and improved thermal performance is prioritized |
Compared with BZX84W-C7V5, the BZX84W-B7V5F offers tighter voltage control critical for closed-loop systems; versus MMSZ5236B, it delivers superior space efficiency and matching thermal behavior on FR4, though with slightly higher thermal resistance.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for BZX84W-B7V5F at 70 °C ambient?
At 70 °C ambient, derating applies: Ptot = 275 mW − [(70 − 25) × (275 mW / 455 K/W)] = 229 mW. This accounts for linear thermal derating per the 455 K/W junction-to-ambient resistance specified for FR4 mounting.
Can BZX84W-B7V5F replace BZX84W-B7V5 in a design?
Yes-BZX84W-B7V5F is the full-marking variant of BZX84W-B7V5, with identical electrical specifications, package, and thermal characteristics. The "F" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging and does not affect device functionality or ratings.
Is pin 2 electrically isolated or internally bonded?
Pin 2 is explicitly designated "n.c." (not connected) in the official Nexperia datasheet and graphic symbol. It is fully isolated-no internal bond wire or die connection exists, and PCB layout must leave it unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling or mechanical stress.
What is the typical reverse recovery time for BZX84W-B7V5F?
Zener diodes like BZX84W-B7V5F are not characterized for reverse recovery time because they operate in steady-state reverse breakdown, not switching mode. Their primary high-frequency limitation is 4 pF junction capacitance, which governs AC impedance above ~10 MHz-not recovery behavior.
