Product details
Overview
DFLZ8V2Q-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 1.0W surface-mount power Zener diode in PowerDI123 package, rated for 8.2V nominal zener voltage at 100mA test current, with 2Ω maximum zener impedance and ±0.03%/°C to +0.08%/°C temperature coefficient. It delivers stable voltage regulation in automotive-grade power supply rails and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DFLZ8V2Q-7 datasheet, DFLZ8V2Q-7 pinout, DFLZ8V2Q-7 application, or DFLZ8V2Q-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q qualified reliability, 110°C/W thermal resistance (junction-to-ambient), 9°C/W junction-to-solder-point thermal resistance, and cathode-band polarity marking for unambiguous PCB layout.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to clamp voltage at 8.2V with tight tolerance (7.7–8.7V) and low dynamic impedance (1–2Ω typical at 100mA), enabling precise reference and protection functions in DC-DC feedback paths and I/O line conditioning. Its PowerDI123 package provides 1W dissipation on FR-4 PCB with JEDEC-compliant thermal performance.
Qualified per AEC-Q standards for high-reliability automotive applications, it features halogen- and antimony-free "Green" molding compound (UL 94V-0), matte tin annealed terminals, and moisture sensitivity level 1 - supporting lead-free reflow without preconditioning.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C8V2LT1G | 0.3W rating, SOT-23 package, 15Ω ZZT, wider VZ tolerance (7.79–8.61V) | Limited to low-power signal-level clamping; unsuitable for >300mW continuous dissipation | Select for space-constrained logic-level protection where thermal budget is <300mW |
| MMSZ5236BS-7-F | 0.5W rating, SOD-123 package, 7Ω ZZT, tighter VZ tolerance (7.99–8.41V) | Lower power handling and higher impedance reduce effectiveness in power rail clamping | Prefer for precision reference in low-current bias networks requiring <1% VZ spread |
Compared with BZX84-C8V2LT1G and MMSZ5236BS-7-F, DFLZ8V2Q-7 uniquely supports 1W continuous dissipation with sub-2Ω impedance and AEC-Q qualification - making it the only choice for automotive power rail protection and industrial 1W-class regulation.

FAQ
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for DFLZ8V2Q-7 on a standard PCB?
DFLZ8V2Q-7 delivers 1.0W continuous power dissipation when mounted on a 1.5" × 1.5" FR-4 PCB with 2 oz. copper and a 1" × 1" thermal pad per Diodes' DS30464 test conditions. Derating begins above +25°C ambient per Figure 1, reaching zero dissipation at +150°C.
How is polarity identified on the PowerDI123 package?
Polarity is marked by a visible cathode band at one end of the PowerDI123 package. The banded end is the cathode; the opposite end is the anode; the center exposed tab is internally connected to the cathode and serves as the primary thermal path to the PCB.
Is DFLZ8V2Q-7 suitable for use in non-automotive industrial applications?
Yes - while AEC-Q qualified, DFLZ8V2Q-7 meets JEDEC reliability standards and operates across -55°C to +150°C. Its 1W rating, low ZZT, and Green material set make it equally appropriate for industrial motor drives, power supplies, and instrumentation where robustness and regulatory compliance are required.
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for optimal thermal performance?
Diodes specifies a 1" × 1" copper pad connected to the center tab for RθJS = 9°C/W. Full layout dimensions (X=1.05mm, X1=2.40mm, X2=4.10mm, Y=Y1=1.50mm, G=0.65mm) are published in DS30464 Section 4 and on diodes.com/package-outlines.html.
