Product details
Overview
DDZ8V2B-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount precision Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 7.78–8.19 V at 20 mA, ±5% tolerance, 8 Ω dynamic impedance at test current, and 0.5 µA maximum reverse leakage at 6.5 V. It operates in SOD123 package, rated for 470 mW power dissipation at 25°C ambient, and serves as voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DDZ8V2B-7 datasheet, DDZ8V2B-7 pinout, DDZ8V2B-7 application, or DDZ8V2B-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tightness (±2.6% typical), low thermal resistance (266°C/W on standard FR-4), automotive-grade availability (Q-variant), RoHS/Green compliance, and SOD123 footprint compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference diode operating in reverse breakdown mode. Its zener voltage exhibits a positive temperature coefficient near 0.05%/°C in the 8 V range, enabling stable regulation across –65°C to +150°C junction temperature. The SOD123 package supports high-density PCB layouts with minimal parasitic capacitance (≈15 pF at 1 MHz).
It delivers precise regulation under low-current conditions (IZT = 20 mA) with low dynamic impedance (ZZT = 8 Ω), ensuring minimal output voltage variation under load transients. Reverse leakage remains tightly controlled (IR ≤ 0.5 µA at VR = 6.5 V), critical for battery-powered sensing and reference circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 7.78–8.19 V at IZT = 20 mA - defines stable reference point for analog feedback or clamping |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 8 Ω at f = 1 kHz - ensures <0.16 V output shift per 20 mA load change |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 470 mW at TA = +25°C - supports continuous operation in compact PCB layouts without forced cooling |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.5 µA at VR = 6.5 V - preserves accuracy in high-impedance bias networks and battery monitoring |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 266°C/W on 25 mm × 25 mm FR-4 board - enables predictable derating up to +75°C ambient |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +150°C - suitable for industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
| Package | SOD123 - industry-standard 2-pin surface-mount outline compatible with pick-and-place and reflow |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C8V2LT1G | Zener voltage 8.2 V ±5%, higher ZZT (15 Ω), SOT-23 package | Larger footprint and higher thermal resistance (350°C/W) limit power handling in dense layouts | Choose if SOT-23 is already standardized in design; avoid for >100 mW continuous dissipation |
| MMSZ5236BT1G | Zener voltage 8.2 V ±5%, higher IR (1.0 µA at 6.5 V), SOD-123 same footprint | Doubled reverse leakage reduces accuracy in high-Z bias networks and battery monitors | Acceptable for non-critical clamping; not recommended for precision reference or ultra-low-power systems |
Compared with BZX84-C8V2LT1G and MMSZ5236BT1G, DDZ8V2B-7 offers superior regulation stability (8 Ω vs. ≥15 Ω impedance) and lower leakage (0.5 µA), making it preferred for precision analog and long-life battery applications where SOD123 footprint is acceptable.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for DDZ8V2B-7 at 75°C ambient?
At TL = +75°C, DDZ8V2B-7 is rated for 500 mW continuous power dissipation per the datasheet's Note 6. This assumes proper thermal coupling to a defined heatsink or PCB copper area; on standard FR-4 with 1 in² pad, derating begins at 25°C ambient per the power curve in Figure 1.
Does DDZ8V2B-7 have automotive-grade qualification?
No-DDZ8V2B-7 is the commercial-grade variant. The automotive-qualified version is DDZ8V2BQ-7, which is AEC-Q101 certified, PPAP capable, and manufactured in IATF16949-certified facilities. Only the Q-suffix part meets automotive reliability and change-control requirements.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over –40°C to +125°C?
Per Figure 16, DDZ8V2B exhibits a positive TC of ≈+0.05%/°C near 8 V. Over a 165°C range, this yields ≈±0.08% VZ drift relative to 25°C value-translating to ±6.6 mV shift for 8.2 V nominal, well within its ±2.6% initial tolerance band.
Can DDZ8V2B-7 replace a 1N4736A in existing designs?
No-1N4736A is a through-hole 8.2 V, 1 W Zener in DO-41 package. DDZ8V2B-7 is SMD, lower power (470 mW), and tighter tolerance but incompatible mechanically and thermally. Direct replacement requires PCB redesign, thermal analysis, and validation of regulation stability under new layout conditions.
