Product details
Overview
BZX884-C5V1,315 from Nexperia is a ±5 % tolerance Zener diode in SOD882 (DFN1006-2) package, rated for 5.00–5.20 V nominal Zener voltage at 5 mA, 250 mW total power dissipation, and 400–480 Ω differential resistance; used for precision voltage regulation and ESD protection in compact portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the BZX884-C5V1,315 datasheet, BZX884-C5V1,315 pinout, BZX884-C5V1,315 application, or BZX884-C5V1,315 equivalent, this page delivers verified Zener voltage, reverse leakage, thermal resistance, AEC-Q101 qualification status, and SOD882 footprint compatibility for automotive and space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its 5.1 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZ = 5 mA with ±5 % tolerance, and exhibits a near-zero temperature coefficient of −0.5 mV/K at that test current.
The device features ultra-low junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 500 K/W on FR4 PCB with standard footprint, enabling reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature. Reverse leakage is limited to 2 µA at VR = 2 V, supporting low-power biasing and sensing applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 5.00–5.20 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection and reference circuits |
| Tolerance | ±5 % - specifies maximum deviation from nominal voltage under production conditions |
| Differential Resistance (rdiff) | 400–480 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - determines voltage regulation stiffness and sensitivity to current variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 2 µA at VR = 2 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby or high-impedance bias networks |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 250 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC or pulsed power handling on standard FR4 layout |
| Temperature Coefficient (SZ) | −0.5 mV/K at IZ = 5 mA - indicates slight negative drift with temperature, critical for stable references across operating range |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | 150 °C maximum - defines upper thermal limit for reliable long-term operation |
Pinout & Package
SOD882 (DFN1006-2) is a leadless ultra-small surface-mount plastic package measuring 1.0 × 0.6 × 0.5 mm, with exposed copper terminals and cathode marked by a bar on the top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (K) | Cathode | Connected to regulated output node; marking bar identifies this terminal for correct PCB orientation |
| 2 (A) | Anode | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; reverse-biased configuration enables Zener conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD robustness per stress test requirements |
| Ultra-small SOD882 footprint | 1.0 × 0.6 mm body enables placement in dense layouts such as wearables, IoT sensors, and portable medical devices |
| 250 mW power rating | Supports moderate-current regulation without external heatsinking on standard FR4 PCB |
| Low 2 µA reverse leakage at 2 V | Minimizes standby current draw in battery-powered systems requiring extended shelf life or low-quiescent operation |
| −0.5 mV/K temperature coefficient | Enables stable voltage reference over industrial temperature range (−55 °C to +150 °C) with predictable, low-drift behavior |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX884-B5V1,315 | ±2 % tolerance (5.00–5.20 V), lower rdiff (400–480 Ω vs. same), identical package and thermal specs | Preferred where tighter voltage accuracy is required for metrology or calibration circuits | Select when absolute voltage precision outweighs cost sensitivity; same footprint and layout |
| MMSZ5231B-7-F | ±5 % tolerance, 5.1 V nominal, SOD-123 package (2.7 × 1.6 mm), Ptot = 350 mW, rdiff = 17 Ω typical | Larger footprint but lower dynamic impedance supports higher-current regulation | Choose when board space allows and lower Zener impedance is needed for fast transient suppression |
Compared with BZX884-B5V1,315, this C-tolerance variant trades voltage accuracy for cost and remains optimal for non-critical biasing; versus MMSZ5231B-7-F, it sacrifices power handling and dynamic impedance for 60 % smaller PCB area and AEC-Q101 compliance.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage this Zener can clamp before breakdown?
The BZX884-C5V1,315 has a nominal Zener voltage of 5.1 V, with guaranteed breakdown occurring between 4.85 V and 5.36 V at 5 mA test current. It does not specify a distinct "maximum reverse voltage" prior to breakdown-operation above the upper limit of this range risks uncontrolled conduction and thermal runaway if current is not externally limited.
Is this diode suitable for bidirectional ESD protection?
No-BZX884-C5V1,315 is a unidirectional Zener diode configured for reverse-bias clamping only. It lacks symmetrical breakdown characteristics and cannot protect against positive-going transients on the anode side. For bidirectional ESD protection, dedicated TVS diodes like PESD5V0S1BA should be used instead.
How does the SOD882 package affect thermal performance compared to SOD-123?
The SOD882 package has higher junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (500 K/W) than SOD-123 (~300 K/W), limiting its continuous power handling on standard FR4. However, its ultra-small size enables better high-frequency response and reduced parasitic inductance, making it preferable for ESD clamping where speed outweighs steady-state power needs.
Can this Zener replace a 5.1 V TL431 shunt regulator?
No-BZX884-C5V1,315 is a passive two-terminal Zener with no internal amplification or feedback. Unlike the TL431, it cannot regulate voltage actively, provide adjustable thresholds, or sink significant current without substantial voltage droop due to its 400–480 Ω dynamic impedance. It serves only as a simple clamp or reference, not a precision shunt regulator.
