Product details
Overview
CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) 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 20.0 V (min 18.0 V, max 22.0 V) at 10 mA test current, with 30 Ω typical Zener impedance, 0.7 W power dissipation, and operates across −40 to 150 °C junction temperature range - commonly used in power supply feedback loops and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) datasheet, CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) pinout, CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) application, or CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) equivalent, key selection criteria include verified Zener voltage tolerance (±10%), thermal coefficient (−2 mV/°C typ.), low forward voltage (1.0 V @ 0.2 A), reverse leakage (<10 μA @ 14.0 V), and compatibility with S-FLAT™ package land pattern 3-2A1S.
Technical Context
The CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) functions as a precision shunt regulator with stable breakdown behavior under DC and transient conditions. Its 30 Ω typical Zener impedance ensures minimal output voltage variation under load changes, while its negative temperature coefficient (−2 mV/°C) supports predictable drift compensation in temperature-sensitive references.
This device is optimized for low-profile PCB assembly using the S-FLAT™ surface-mount package (Toshiba's proprietary variant of SOD-123), with cathode-marked polarity and 0.013 g typical weight. It meets JEDEC-standard thermal performance when mounted on 6 mm × 6 mm copper land on FR-4 board.

Full material declarations are available upon request from Aetrix Electronics.
What is the maximum non-repetitive peak reverse power (PRSM) for CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M)?
The CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) supports a non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation (PRSM) of 40 W for pulse widths up to 1 ms, as defined in Toshiba's PRSM–tW graph. This rating assumes mounting on a standard glass-epoxy board with 6 mm × 6 mm solder land, enabling robust transient suppression in automotive and industrial surge events.
Does CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) have a specified forward voltage?
Yes, CRZ20(TE85L,Q,M) specifies a maximum forward voltage of 1.0 V at 0.2 A forward current. This parameter is confirmed in Toshiba's Electrical Characteristics table and supports dual-use as both a Zener regulator and a low-voltage clamp in bidirectional protection schemes.
