Product details
Overview
BZX84W-C75-QX from Nexperia is a ±5% tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode with a nominal 75 V breakdown voltage, 500 Ω typical differential resistance at 2 mA, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use in SOT323 (SC-70) package. It delivers stable reference voltage in power supply feedback loops and overvoltage protection circuits operating up to +150 °C ambient.
For engineers reviewing the BZX84W-C75-QX datasheet, BZX84W-C75-QX pinout, BZX84W-C75-QX application, or BZX84W-C75-QX equivalent, key selection criteria include its 75 V Zener voltage tolerance, 275 mW total power dissipation on FR4 PCB, 500 Ω dynamic impedance, and AEC-Q101 qualification status for under-hood automotive modules.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse-biased breakdown mode to maintain a stable 75 V reference across its cathode-anode terminals. Its temperature coefficient of +80.2 mV/K at 2 mA enables predictable voltage drift compensation in precision regulation circuits.
The device exhibits 35 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz and 0 V reverse bias, supporting high-frequency noise suppression and transient clamping applications where low capacitive loading is critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 75 V nominal, ±5% tolerance - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 500 Ω max at IZ = 2 mA - determines regulation stiffness and output voltage stability under load variation |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 275 mW at Tamb = 25 °C on FR4 PCB - sets maximum continuous power handling in standard layout |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C max - enables operation in under-hood automotive environments without derating |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 50 nA max at VR = 52.5 V - ensures minimal leakage in high-impedance reference paths |
| Junction Capacitance (Cd) | 35 pF at f = 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - supports high-frequency filtering without signal distortion |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.9 V max at IF = 10 mA - defines conduction loss when used in forward-biased ESD protection |
Pinout & Package
SOT323 (SC-70) leadless surface-mount plastic package with 3 terminals; compact 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm footprint optimized for high-density PCB layouts.
| 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 terminal; no internal bond wire or silicon connection - must remain unconnected |
| 3 | Cathode (K) | Reverse-bias voltage input and Zener current return path; tied to regulated output node |
Key Features

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-Q | Same electrical specs but unmarked variant; lacks 'X' suffix denoting enhanced traceability | No functional difference; identical AEC-Q101 qualification and thermal performance | Select when full lot traceability per IATF 16949 is not required |
| MMSZ5265B-TP | 75 V ±5%, 500 mW rating, SOD-123 package - larger footprint and 300 mW lower surge capability | Less suitable for high-density automotive PCBs; requires 30% more board area | Choose only if SOT323 assembly infrastructure is unavailable |
Compared with BZX84W-C75-QX, the BZX84W-C75-Q offers identical regulation performance without traceability features, while MMSZ5265B-TP trades compactness and surge robustness for broader distributor availability in legacy designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation for BZX84W-C75-QX?
The device supports 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation at Tamb = 25 °C with 100 µs pulse duration and square-wave waveform, enabling robust transient suppression in automotive load-dump scenarios per ISO 7637-2.
How does the 2nd pin (n.c.) affect PCB layout and soldering?
Pin 2 is internally unconnected and must remain un-soldered; it serves only as a mechanical alignment aid during pick-and-place. PCB footprints must omit solder paste and copper land for this terminal to prevent bridging or unintended thermal coupling.
Is BZX84W-C75-QX suitable for use in high-frequency signal path protection?
Yes - its 35 pF junction capacitance at 1 MHz and 0 V bias allows integration into CAN FD and LIN bus protection networks without degrading signal integrity or violating rise/fall time specifications up to 5 Mbps.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for this device?
Rth(j-a) is 455 K/W when mounted on a standard FR4 PCB with single-sided copper and tin-plated finish, meaning a 275 mW power dissipation results in ~125 K temperature rise above ambient at steady state.
