Product details
Overview
NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G from onsemi is a 250 mW, 5.1 V ±5% tolerance Zener diode in X2DFNW2 (0402) wettable flank package, designed for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in space-constrained PCBs. It delivers 130 pF capacitance at 0 V, 2 µA leakage at 1.5 V reverse bias, and 80 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current - ideal for ESD-sensitive power rail clamping in portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101-qualified automotive suitability, low 0.40 mm body height, AOI-compatible wettable flank leads, and tight thermal resistance (415 °C/W on FR-4 with minimum pad).
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional Zener regulator with cathode-anode polarity, optimized for stable reverse-bias breakdown at nominal 5.1 V. Its electrical behavior is defined at IZT = 5 mA, with guaranteed VZ between 4.85 V and 5.36 V and temperature coefficient of ±9 mV/°C across −55 °C to +150 °C junction range.
The X2DFNW2 package enables high-density placement and automated optical inspection via solderable flank sidewalls. Thermal performance depends on PCB layout: 415 °C/W with minimal 1 oz. Cu pad (Note 1), improving to 247 °C/W with 150 mm² copper area (Note 2), supporting reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.85 V to 5.36 V @ IZT = 5 mA - defines clamping threshold for 5 V rail protection |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 80 Ω max @ IZT = 5 mA - ensures stable regulation under dynamic load transients |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 2 µA max @ VR = 1.5 V - minimizes standby power loss in battery-powered systems |
| Capacitance (C) | 130 pF @ VR = 0 V, f = 1 MHz - low enough to avoid signal integrity issues in high-speed interfaces |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 250 mW @ TA = 25 °C (derates 1.5 mW/°C above) - sets maximum continuous clamping energy |
| Junction Temp Range | −65 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in under-hood automotive and industrial environments |
| Package | X2DFNW2 (0402, 1.00 × 0.60 × 0.37 mm) - enables ultra-compact placement and AOI compatibility |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584-C5V1 | 5.1 V ±5%, SOD-523 package (1.2 × 0.8 × 0.6 mm), 300 mW PD, 150 pF C | Larger footprint, higher capacitance, no wettable flank or AEC-Q101 rating | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer designs where AOI and automotive compliance are not required |
| NZ8F5V1SMX2WT5G | Same package and VZ range but ±2% tolerance, 5.1 V nominal, tighter 4.98–5.22 V spread | Higher precision needed for reference voltage generation or ADC biasing | Choose when 5 V rail stability must remain within ±0.12 V across temperature and production lot |
Compared with BZX584-C5V1, NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G offers superior manufacturability (wettable flank), automotive qualification, and smaller size; compared with NZ8F5V1SMX2WT5G, it trades tighter tolerance for lower unit cost in non-critical clamping roles.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G?
The NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G has a standard tolerance of ±5% around its nominal 5.1 V Zener voltage, resulting in a guaranteed breakdown range of 4.85 V to 5.36 V at IZT = 5 mA and TA = 25 °C. This tolerance is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of the official onsemi datasheet (Rev. 4, November 2025). The NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G is part of the MX2W standard tolerance series, distinct from the tighter ±2% SMX2W variants.
Is NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G qualified for automotive use?
Yes, NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable when ordered with the SZ prefix (e.g., SZNZ8F5V1MX2WT5G). The base part NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G shares identical electrical and mechanical specifications and is widely used in automotive body control modules and infotainment systems. Its 150 °C maximum junction temperature and robust thermal derating profile support under-hood and cabin applications.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G?
The maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G is 2 µA at VR = 1.5 V and TA = 25 °C, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of the onsemi datasheet. This low leakage supports extended battery life in always-on wearable and IoT sensor nodes where the NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G serves as a standby rail protector.
Does NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G have wettable flank leads?
Yes, NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G uses the X2DFNW2 package with wettable flank leads, explicitly highlighted in the datasheet's "Specification Features" section. This design enables full automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints on both top and side surfaces, eliminating the need for X-ray verification in high-volume manufacturing of smartphones and automotive PCBs using NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G.
What is the thermal resistance (RJA) of NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G on a standard FR-4 board?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RJA) of NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G is 415 °C/W when mounted on an FR-4 board with minimum pad (1 oz. Cu), per Note 1 in the Maximum Ratings table. With a larger 150 mm² copper area (1 oz. Cu), RJA improves to 247 °C/W (Note 2). These values directly impact safe operating power dissipation and must be applied in thermal design for any application using NZ8F5V1MX2WT5G.
