Product details
Overview
CRZ18(TE85L,Q) from Toshiba is a silicon epitaxial Zener diode designed for voltage regulation and surge absorption in compact surface-mount applications. It delivers a nominal Zener voltage of 18.0 V (range 16.2–19.8 V) at 10 mA, with 30 Ω typical Zener impedance, 0.7 W power dissipation, and operates across −40 to +150 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the CRZ18(TE85L,Q) datasheet, CRZ18(TE85L,Q) pinout, CRZ18(TE85L,Q) application, or CRZ18(TE85L,Q) equivalent, key selection criteria include its S-FLAT™ package footprint, low thermal resistance on standard PCB land patterns, stable temperature coefficient (±2.5 mV/°C typ.), and suitability for overvoltage clamping in DC power rails and signal line protection.
Technical Context
The CRZ18(TE85L,Q) functions as a precision shunt regulator with defined reverse breakdown behavior under controlled test current (IZ = 10 mA). Its Zener impedance of ≤30 Ω ensures minimal voltage deviation under dynamic load changes, and its temperature coefficient of +2.5 mV/°C (typ.) supports predictable drift compensation in mid-voltage reference designs.
Rated for 0.7 W continuous power dissipation at 25 °C ambient, the device relies on PCB copper area (e.g., 6 mm × 6 mm land on FR-4) to maintain junction temperature ≤120 °C per Toshiba derating guidelines. It exhibits <10 μA reverse leakage at VR = 13.0 V and forward voltage ≤1.0 V at IF = 0.2 A.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 16.2–19.8 V at IZ = 10 mA - defines regulated output range for clamp/reference circuits |
| Zener Impedance (rd) | ≤30 Ω - limits output voltage variation under changing load current |
| Power Dissipation (P) | 0.7 W - sets maximum steady-state thermal load on PCB layout |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −40 to +150 °C - enables operation in industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤10 μA at VR = 13.0 V - ensures low standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤1.0 V at IF = 0.2 A - supports use as polarity-sensitive protection diode in bidirectional clamps |
Pinout & Package
CRZ18(TE85L,Q) uses Toshiba's S-FLAT™ surface-mount package (JEITA package code 3-2A1S), measuring 2.8 × 1.2 × 1.2 mm with cathode marked on the top surface. The device has two terminals: anode and cathode, with no internal connections beyond the diode junction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / low-side connection | Connected to ground or lower-potential node in shunt regulation; carries full reverse leakage and forward current |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / high-side connection | Connected to protected node or reference point; sustains rated reverse voltage and absorbs transient energy |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Compact S-FLAT™ package | 2.8 × 1.2 mm footprint enables high-density PCB layouts without sacrificing thermal performance |
| Stable Zener voltage tolerance | ±10% (16.2–19.8 V) ensures predictable clamping level across production lots |
| Low Zener impedance | ≤30 Ω maintains regulation accuracy under ±5 mA load step changes |
| Controlled temperature coefficient | +2.5 mV/°C (typ.) allows predictable drift modeling in temperature-critical references |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C18LT1G | Same 18 V nominal Zener, SOT-23 package (3.0 × 1.4 mm), 300 mW rating, 40 Ω max ZZK | Lower power rating limits use in sustained clamping; better suited for low-current biasing | Select when board space permits SOT-23 and thermal load is <0.3 W |
| MMBZ5245B | 18 V nominal, SOT-23, 350 mW, 35 Ω max ZZK, ±5% tolerance | Tighter voltage tolerance but higher impedance and lower power handling than CRZ18(TE85L,Q) | Prefer for precision reference where ±5% VZ outweighs need for 0.7 W dissipation |
Compared with BZX84-C18LT1G and MMBZ5245B, CRZ18(TE85L,Q) offers 0.7 W power capability and lower Zener impedance in a smaller 2.8 mm length footprint, making it optimal for high-energy transient suppression where thermal margin and regulation stability are critical.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of CRZ18(TE85L,Q)?
The CRZ18(TE85L,Q) has a Zener voltage range of 16.2 V to 19.8 V at IZ = 10 mA, corresponding to ±10% tolerance around the nominal 18.0 V value. This tolerance is verified per Toshiba's Electrical Characteristics table and applies across the full operating temperature range of −40 to +150 °C.
Does CRZ18(TE85L,Q) have a specified Zener impedance?
Yes, CRZ18(TE85L,Q) specifies a maximum Zener impedance (rd) of 30 Ω at IZ = 10 mA and Ta = 25 °C. This value reflects dynamic resistance near the knee of the breakdown curve and directly impacts regulation accuracy under varying load conditions.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for CRZ18(TE85L,Q)?
The CRZ18(TE85L,Q) exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 10 μA when tested at VR = 13.0 V and Ta = 25 °C. This parameter is critical for low-power bias networks and ensures minimal quiescent current draw in always-on monitoring circuits.
What package type does CRZ18(TE85L,Q) use?
CRZ18(TE85L,Q) uses Toshiba's proprietary S-FLAT™ surface-mount package (JEITA code 3-2A1S), measuring 2.8 mm × 1.2 mm × 1.2 mm with a cathode marking on the top surface. Its land pattern is optimized for thermal conduction on standard FR-4 PCBs.
Is CRZ18(TE85L,Q) suitable for automotive applications?
CRZ18(TE85L,Q) supports junction temperatures up to +150 °C and meets industrial reliability standards, but it is not AEC-Q200 qualified. For non-safety-critical automotive body electronics (e.g., lighting control, HVAC sensors), CRZ18(TE85L,Q) may be used subject to full system-level qualification by the end customer.
