Product details
Overview
BZX8850S-B3V0-QYL from Nexperia is a low-current Zener voltage regulator diode in an ultra-small DFN1006BD-2 (SOD882BD) package, designed for precision biasing and voltage reference in space-constrained, low-power circuits. It delivers a nominal 3.0 V regulation at 50 µA test current, with ±2 % tolerance, 365 mW total power dissipation, and qualified AEC-Q101 automotive reliability - deployed in sensor signal conditioning and portable battery management.
For engineers reviewing the BZX8850S-B3V0-QYL datasheet, BZX8850S-B3V0-QYL pinout, BZX8850S-B3V0-QYL application, or BZX8850S-B3V0-QYL equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, thermal behavior, side-wettable flank soldering guidance, and automotive-grade qualification context - critical for low-leakage, stable reference design in wearables and automotive body electronics.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a specified working voltage of 2.94 V to 3.06 V at IZ = 50 µA, exhibiting a differential resistance ≤600 Ω at 5 mA and a temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/K. Its low 0.8 µA max reverse current at VR = 2.4 V enables minimal quiescent drain in always-on monitoring circuits.
The device uses a planar epitaxial process with side-wettable flanks for automated optical solder-joint inspection, and its 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.47 mm footprint supports high-density PCB layouts. Thermal resistance from junction to ambient is 340 K/W on standard FR4, limiting continuous power handling under natural convection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage | 3.0 V (2.94 V to 3.06 V at IZ = 50 µA; tight tolerance enables accurate low-current reference) |
| Tolerance | ±2 % (B-series grade; reduces calibration overhead in production test) |
| Max Forward Voltage | 0.9 V at IF = 10 mA (low VF minimizes forward-bias loss in dual-direction protection schemes) |
| Total Power Dissipation | 365 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C (derates linearly above 25 °C; defines safe operating area on standard FR4) |
| Reverse Current | 0.8 µA max at VR = 2.4 V (ultra-low leakage preserves battery life in sleep-mode circuits) |
| Junction Temperature | −55 °C to +150 °C (AEC-Q101 qualified; supports under-hood and engine-control module environments) |
| Package | DFN1006BD-2 (SOD882BD); 0.65 mm pitch, side-wettable flanks for AOI-compatible reflow) |
Pinout & Package
DFN1006BD-2 (SOD882BD) is a 2-terminal, leadless surface-mount plastic package measuring 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.47 mm, with side-wettable flanks enabling automated optical inspection of solder joints. The cathode is marked by a bar on the top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX8850S-C3V0-Q | ±5 % tolerance (vs. ±2 %), identical package and 3.0 V nominal, higher leakage (1.0 µA max at VR = 2.4 V) | Suitable for non-critical bias where cost sensitivity outweighs precision; not recommended for automotive sensor references | Select only when tighter tolerance is unnecessary and BOM cost reduction is prioritized over long-term stability. |
| MMSZ4684T1G | 3.0 V nominal, ±5 %, SOD-123 package (2.7 mm × 1.6 mm), 500 mW Ptot, 100 nA leakage at 1 V | Larger footprint limits high-density layouts; lower leakage benefits ultra-low-power sleep modes but lacks AEC-Q101 qualification | Choose for non-automotive, space-tolerant designs requiring sub-100 nA leakage - not for AEC-compliant systems. |
Compared with BZX8850S-C3V0-Q, the BZX8850S-B3V0-QYL offers tighter regulation and lower leakage for automotive-specified accuracy; versus MMSZ4684T1G, it trades absolute leakage performance for AEC-Q101 compliance and 60 % smaller board area - making it optimal for space-constrained, safety-aware applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse current at 2.4 V for BZX8850S-B3V0-QYL?
The maximum reverse current (IR) is 0.8 µA at VR = 2.4 V and Tj = 25 °C, per Table 8 of the official Nexperia datasheet Rev. 3. This ultra-low leakage supports multi-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes and ensures minimal loading on high-impedance reference sources.
Is BZX8850S-B3V0-QYL qualified for automotive use?
Yes - it is fully qualified to AEC-Q101 for stress testing of discrete semiconductors and explicitly recommended for automotive applications in the datasheet's General Description and Test Information sections. Its operating temperature range (−55 °C to +150 °C) and package construction meet automotive under-hood requirements.
How does the DFN1006BD-2 package support automated optical inspection?
The package features side-wettable flanks - exposed metal on the side walls of the terminals - allowing solder fillet height and wetting quality to be optically verified during AOI. This eliminates reliance on X-ray for solder joint assessment and improves first-pass yield in automotive PCB assembly lines.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for this device?
Rth(j-a) is 340 K/W when mounted on a standard FR4 PCB with single-sided copper, tin-plated, and the recommended footprint (per Table 6). This value assumes free-air convection and defines the thermal derating curve - e.g., at 70 °C ambient, max power drops to ~250 mW.
