Product details
Overview
BZX8850S-C47-QYL from Nexperia is a low-current Zener voltage regulator diode in the BZX8850S-Q series, designed for precision voltage reference and regulation in space-constrained, low-power circuits. It delivers a nominal 47 V Zener voltage at 50 µA test current, with ±5 % tolerance, 365 mW total power dissipation, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the BZX8850S-C47-QYL datasheet, BZX8850S-C47-QYL pinout, BZX8850S-C47-QYL application, or BZX8850S-C47-QYL equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-small DFN1006BD-2 (SOD882BD) package, side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection, low leakage optimization for noise-sensitive analog rails, and specified differential resistance of 170 Ω at 2 mA.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a nominal VZ of 47 V, specified at IZ = 50 µA - enabling stable regulation in ultra-low-bias applications such as battery monitoring and sensor biasing. Its temperature coefficient is +0.05 mV/K, indicating minimal drift over temperature, and it exhibits 40 pF capacitance at 0 V reverse bias, supporting high-frequency stability in feedback networks.
The device features intentional minor leakage current enhancement per AN90031 to improve switching speed and reduce noise in dynamic regulation paths. Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 340 K/W on standard FR4 PCB, limiting continuous power handling but ensuring robust transient surge capability up to 40 W for 100 µs pulses.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 44.0 V to 50.0 V at IZ = 50 µA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection and reference generation |
| Tolerance | ±5 % - enables cost-effective selection for non-critical regulation where tight voltage accuracy is not required |
| Differential Resistance (rdiff) | 170 Ω max at IZ = 2 mA - determines regulation stiffness and output impedance in shunt configuration |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤ 0.9 V at IF = 10 mA - ensures low conduction loss when used in forward-biased protection or logic-level detection |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 365 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - sets maximum steady-state power budget on standard FR4 PCB |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −55 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in under-hood automotive environments and industrial edge nodes |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive-grade reliability including HTOL, TC, and ESD testing per discrete semiconductor stress standards |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN1006BD-2 (SOD882BD), ultra-small leadless surface-mount package measuring 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.47 mm with side-wettable flanks for solder-joint inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (marked side) | Cathode (K) | Connected to regulated output node; reverse-biased terminal where Zener breakdown occurs |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; completes shunt regulation path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-small footprint | DFN1006BD-2 (1.0 mm × 0.6 mm) enables placement in dense portable electronics and automotive ECUs with strict board area constraints |
| Side-wettable flanks | Facilitates automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints without X-ray, improving manufacturing yield and process control |
| Low-test-current specification | VZ defined at 50 µA - ideal for battery-powered systems where quiescent current must remain below 100 µA |
| Optimized leakage profile | Intentional minor IR increase per AN90031 - reduces switching transients and broadband noise in fast-response regulation loops |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive applications including engine control, body electronics, and ADAS sensor interfaces |
Applications
| Automotive Battery Monitoring | Portable Gas Sensor Biasing |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX8850S-B47-Q | Nominal VZ = 47 V, ±2 % tolerance (vs. ±5 %), higher rdiff = 200 Ω at 5 mA | Preferred where tighter voltage accuracy is critical, e.g., calibration references | Select BZX8850S-B47-Q only if system-level tolerance stack-up requires <±2 % regulation; otherwise C-series offers better cost/performance balance |
| MMSZ5268ET1G | 47 V Zener, SOD-123 package (2.7 mm × 1.6 mm), 500 mW Ptot, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Suitable for industrial/commercial boards where automotive qualification is unnecessary | Choose MMSZ5268ET1G only when board space allows larger footprint and AEC-Q101 is not mandated; BZX8850S-C47-QYL provides superior miniaturization and automotive compliance |
Compared with BZX8850S-B47-Q, the C47 variant trades voltage precision for lower cost and optimized noise performance; versus MMSZ5268ET1G, it delivers 43 % smaller footprint, AEC-Q101 validation, and side-wettable flanks - making it the sole choice for next-gen automotive and portable medical designs requiring both size and reliability.

FAQ
What is the marking code for BZX8850S-C47-QYL?
The official marking code for BZX8850S-C47-QYL is '7Z', as confirmed in Table 4 of the Nexperia datasheet Rev. 3. This two-character code appears on the top surface of the DFN1006BD-2 package, with the cathode indicated by a visible marking bar adjacent to pin 1.
Can BZX8850S-C47-QYL be used in place of a 47 V through-hole Zener diode?
Yes, but only with PCB layout adaptation: its DFN1006BD-2 footprint requires reflow-compatible pads per Figure 10, and thermal design must account for its 340 K/W Rth(j-a) on FR4. Unlike through-hole parts, it cannot dissipate >365 mW continuously without derating, and mechanical mounting differs entirely.
Does the 'QYL' suffix indicate a specific tape-and-reel packaging option?
Yes - 'QYL' denotes the 7-inch reel packaging variant with 10,000 units per reel, compliant with EIA-481-D standards. This differs from 'QY' (same reel size, 8,000 units) and 'QX' (13-inch reel, 20,000 units), all sharing identical electrical and thermal specifications.
Is the 47 V Zener voltage guaranteed across the full −55 °C to +150 °C range?
No - the 44.0 V to 50.0 V range applies at Tj = 25 °C. At extremes, VZ shifts per its +0.05 mV/K temperature coefficient: at +125 °C, typical deviation is +5.0 V, yielding ~49–52 V; at −40 °C, deviation is −2.4 V, yielding ~41–45 V. System design must accommodate this drift.
