Product details
Overview
DFLZ6V2-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 1.0W surface-mount power Zener diode in PowerDI123 package, delivering nominal 6.2V zener voltage at 100mA test current, with 1Ω typical zener impedance and ±0.01%/°C temperature coefficient. It provides precision voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and reference voltage generation for industrial power converters.
For engineers reviewing the DFLZ6V2-7 datasheet, DFLZ6V2-7 pinout, DFLZ6V2-7 application, or DFLZ6V2-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6.2V nominal zener voltage, 1W power dissipation on FR-4 PCB, 110°C/W thermal resistance junction-to-ambient, cathode-band polarity marking, and automotive-qualified variant availability (DFLZ6V2Q-7).
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load and line conditions. Its low 1Ω typical zener impedance ensures minimal voltage deviation under dynamic current changes, while the ±0.01%/°C temperature coefficient enables high-stability references over -55°C to +150°C operating range.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on standard FR-4 PCBs, it achieves 1W power dissipation using a 1"x1" 2 oz. copper pad layout. The PowerDI123 package features matte tin–annealed copper leadframe terminals, UL 94V-0 molded plastic housing, and JEDEC-qualified reliability per AEC-Q standards.
Key Specifications

| Power Dissipation (PD) | 1.0W on FR-4 PCB with 1"x1" 2 oz. Cu pad; defines maximum continuous steady-state power handling |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 1Ω typical at 100mA; ensures <10mV output variation per 10mA load change |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 5µA max at VR = 5V; guarantees low leakage in standby or high-impedance bias networks |
| Temp. Coefficient (αVZ) | ±0.01%/°C at 6.2V; enables <±0.15V drift over full -55°C to +150°C operating range |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 110°C/W; determines junction temperature rise above ambient under 1W load |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +150°C; supports deployment in under-hood automotive, industrial motor drives, and outdoor power systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C6V2 (Diodes Inc.) | 0.3W SOT-23 package; 10Ω typical ZZT; ±2% VZ tolerance | Lower power handling limits use to low-current biasing only; unsuitable for >100mA regulation | Select when board space is constrained and power demand ≤300mW; verify thermal margin with RθJA = 300°C/W |
| MMSZ5234B (ON Semiconductor) | 0.5W SOD-123; 7Ω typical ZZT; ±5% VZ tolerance; no AEC-Q qualification | Lacks automotive reliability validation; higher impedance reduces regulation precision under load transients | Acceptable for commercial-grade consumer power supplies where cost is prioritized over stability and qualification |
Compared with BZX84-C6V2 and MMSZ5234B, DFLZ6V2-7 delivers superior power capability (1W vs. ≤0.5W), lower dynamic impedance (1Ω vs. ≥7Ω), tighter voltage tolerance (±6.5% vs. ±5% or ±2%), and automotive-grade reliability-making it optimal for industrial and automotive voltage reference designs demanding long-term stability.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage (VR) at which DFLZ6V2-7 guarantees ≤5µA leakage?
DFLZ6V2-7 guarantees ≤5µA reverse current at VR = 5V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value is measured under DC conditions at 25°C ambient and defines the upper limit of usable reverse bias before significant leakage compromises reference accuracy or standby power.
Can DFLZ6V2-7 be used in place of a 1N4735A in existing through-hole designs?
No-DFLZ6V2-7 is a surface-mount PowerDI123 device and not a drop-in mechanical replacement for the axial-lead 1N4735A. However, its 6.2V rating, 1W rating, and 1Ω zener impedance make it a functional upgrade for new SMT designs targeting higher density and improved thermal performance on FR-4 boards.
Does DFLZ6V2-7 require a heatsink for 1W operation?
No external heatsink is required. At 1W dissipation on a 1"x1", 2 oz. copper FR-4 pad, junction temperature rise is calculated as 110°C/W × 1W = 110°C above ambient. With TJMAX = 150°C, this allows safe operation up to +40°C ambient-sufficient for most enclosed industrial environments without forced airflow.
Is there an automotive-qualified version of DFLZ6V2-7?
Yes-the DFLZ6V2Q-7 is the AEC-Q200 qualified variant, manufactured under automotive-specific process controls and tested to extended temperature and reliability requirements. It shares identical electrical specifications but carries separate part numbering and qualification documentation.
