Product details
Overview
BZX884-B51,315 from Nexperia is a ±2 % tolerance Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD882 (DFN1006-2) package, rated for 51 V nominal Zener voltage at 5 mA, 250 mW total power dissipation, and 90 Ω typical differential resistance. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog and digital supply rails.
For engineers reviewing the BZX884-B51,315 datasheet, BZX884-B51,315 pinout, BZX884-B51,315 application, or BZX884-B51,315 equivalent, this page delivers verified Zener voltage, tolerance, thermal resistance, reverse leakage, and AEC-Q101 qualification status - all critical for automotive-grade voltage regulation and ESD protection design.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage under varying current loads, with temperature coefficient of +51 mV/K at IZ = 5 mA. Its ultra-small DFN1006-2 footprint enables high-density PCB layouts while supporting high-frequency transient suppression due to low junction capacitance (40 pF at 0 V).
Designed for surface-mount assembly only, it features AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use, 150 °C maximum junction temperature, and non-repetitive peak reverse current capability of 0.4 A at 100 µs pulse width - enabling robust surge handling in compact power management nodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 49.98 V to 52.02 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines tight regulation window for 51 V reference applications |
| Tolerance | ±2 % - ensures predictable clamping threshold without post-production trimming |
| Differential Resistance (rdiff) | 90 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 50 nA max at VR = 0.7 × VZnom - guarantees minimal standby current in always-on circuits |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 250 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C on FR4 PCB - sets maximum continuous DC or pulsed power handling |
| Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance (Rth(j-a)) | 500 K/W - informs thermal derating requirements for elevated ambient temperatures |
| Capacitance (Cd) | 40 pF at f = 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - supports high-frequency noise filtering and ESD response |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STMicroelectronics BZT52-B51 | Same ±2 % tolerance and 51 V nominal Zener voltage, but in SOD-123 package (2.7 × 1.6 mm); 400 mW Ptot | Larger footprint limits use in ultra-dense layouts; higher power rating suits higher-current clamping | Select when board space permits and >250 mW dissipation is required |
| Vishay PLZ51B | ±5 % tolerance, same SOD882 package, 500 mW Ptot, 100 Ω rdiff; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Looser voltage tolerance reduces precision in reference applications; higher power supports longer surge events | Select for cost-sensitive industrial designs where AEC-Q101 is unnecessary |
Compared with BZX884-B51,315, BZT52-B51 trades miniaturization for higher power and larger footprint, while PLZ51B sacrifices tolerance and automotive qualification for cost and surge margin - making the Nexperia part optimal for space-constrained, AEC-Q101–compliant 51 V reference designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse current before breakdown for BZX884-B51,315?
At VR = 0.7 × VZnom (35.7 V), the maximum reverse leakage current is 50 nA. This ultra-low leakage ensures negligible quiescent power draw in always-on monitoring circuits and preserves battery life in portable systems.
Can BZX884-B51,315 be used in reflow soldering processes?
Yes - the SOD882 package is qualified exclusively for reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020. Recommended profile uses peak temperature ≤ 260 °C for ≤ 30 seconds, with no hand-soldering or wave soldering permitted due to thermal stress risks on the ultra-thin leadframe.
How does the +51 mV/K temperature coefficient affect regulation stability?
The positive temperature coefficient means VZ increases by ~51 mV per °C rise in junction temperature. At 5 mA bias, this yields ~1.5 V drift over a 30 °C ambient range - acceptable for non-critical clamping but requires compensation in precision reference designs.
Is the marking code 'CD' confirmed for BZX884-B51,315?
Yes - Table 4 confirms 'CD' as the marking code for BZX884-B51. The cathode is identified by a bar adjacent to pin 1 on the top surface, consistent with SOD882 mechanical drawing Figure 11 and Nexperia's standard orientation convention.
