Product details
Overview
BZY55B10 RBG from Taiwan Semiconductor is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 10.00 V, ±2% tolerance, 500 mW power dissipation, and 5 mA test current-designed for precision low-voltage stabilization in DC/DC converters and lighting control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BZY55B10 RBG datasheet, BZY55B10 RBG pinout, BZY55B10 RBG application, or BZY55B10 RBG equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy (9.80–10.20 V), dynamic impedance (15 Ω at 5 mA), leakage current (≤0.1 µA at 7.5 V), and 0805 ceramic package compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable reference voltage under regulated current conditions. It features tight ±2% VZ tolerance, low dynamic impedance (15 Ω at IZT = 5 mA), and guaranteed leakage current ≤0.1 µA at 7.5 V.
Designed for surface-mount use in space-constrained applications, the BZY55B10 RBG uses a single-die 0805 ceramic package with cathode band polarity marking, JESD201 Class 1A whisker resistance, and UL 94HB-compliant molding compound.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5240B-7-F | Same 10 V nominal VZ, but ±5% tolerance and 350 mW PD; SOT-23 package | Higher thermal resistance; unsuitable for high-power or high-temperature PCB locations | Select only if board space permits SOT-23 and ±5% tolerance is acceptable in system-level calibration |
| 1N4740A | Through-hole DO-41 package; 10 V ±5%, 1 W PD; no moisture sensitivity rating | Not compatible with automated SMT lines; requires wave soldering or hand assembly | Choose only for prototyping, legacy repair, or non-SMT production environments |

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for BZY55B10 RBG?
The BZY55B10 RBG has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 9.80 V to 10.20 V at 5 mA test current and 25 °C ambient, reflecting its ±2% tolerance specification. This range is verified per Taiwan Semiconductor's D2301 datasheet revision and applies under pulse-test conditions (10 ms duration). The BZY55B10 RBG maintains this tolerance across its full operating temperature range of −55 °C to +150 °C.
Does BZY55B10 RBG support reflow soldering per J-STD-020?
Yes, the BZY55B10 RBG is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it can be subjected to unlimited floor life and standard lead-free reflow profiles without baking. Its 0805 ceramic package and UL 94HB-compliant molding compound are qualified for peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C, making the BZY55B10 RBG fully compatible with high-volume SMT assembly processes.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for BZY55B10 RBG?
The BZY55B10 RBG exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.1 µA when biased at 7.5 V, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table. This value is measured at 25 °C and remains valid across the full operating temperature range. The low leakage ensures minimal error injection in high-impedance reference paths, a key requirement for the BZY55B10 RBG in precision analog circuits.
Can BZY55B10 RBG replace BZY55C10 in existing designs?
No-the BZY55B10 RBG and BZY55C10 differ in voltage tolerance: B-series offers ±2%, while C-series is ±5%. Substituting BZY55B10 RBG for BZY55C10 improves reference accuracy but may require validation of downstream circuit margin, especially in feedback loops sensitive to VZ shift. The BZY55B10 RBG shares identical package, pinout, and thermal specs, so mechanical integration is seamless.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for BZY55B10 RBG?
The BZY55B10 RBG has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 300 °C/W, measured on a standard JEDEC 2S2P test board. This value assumes natural convection and defines the temperature rise above ambient per milliwatt of dissipated power. At its full 500 mW rating, the BZY55B10 RBG junction may rise up to 150 °C above ambient-consistent with its 150 °C maximum junction temperature rating.
