Product details
Overview
RKZ22BKV#P1 from Renesas Electronics is a silicon planar Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation in low-power analog and reference circuits, featuring a nominal Zener voltage of 22 V (20.88–23.17 V), 5 mA test current, 55 Ω dynamic resistance, 700 mW power dissipation, and SRP-F surface-mount package - used in voltage clamp and reference applications for industrial sensor signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the RKZ22BKV#P1 datasheet, RKZ22BKV#P1 pinout, RKZ22BKV#P1 application, or RKZ22BKV#P1 equivalent, this part serves as a stable, tape-and-reel packaged Zener solution with verified ESD robustness (±30 kV per IEC 61000-4-2), temperature-stable regulation, and compact footprint for space-constrained PCBs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in a planar-diffused silicon junction. Its Zener voltage exhibits a positive temperature coefficient above ~5.6 V, confirmed at +0.055 %/°C for RKZ22BKV#P1, enabling predictable drift compensation in bias networks.
It is rated for 150 °C maximum junction temperature and derates linearly to zero power at 150 °C ambient when mounted on a standard 50 × 50 mm glass-epoxy board with 10 × 10 mm solder land - supporting reliable operation in extended-temperature industrial environments.
Key Specifications

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-C22LT1G | 22 V ±5%, 350 mW Pd, SOT-23 package, rd = 50 Ω | Lower power rating limits use in sustained 5 mA bias; smaller footprint but higher thermal resistance | Select when board space is constrained and average power <350 mW; verify thermal margin on FR-4 |
| MMSZ5248B-TP | 22 V ±5%, 500 mW Pd, SOD-123 package, rd = 60 Ω, ESD = ±30 kV | Same ESD rating but 200 mW lower Pd; slightly higher rd increases load regulation error | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where 500 mW suffices and legacy SOD-123 footprint is required |
Compared with BZX84-C22LT1G and MMSZ5248B-TP, RKZ22BKV#P1 offers 40% higher power headroom and identical ESD robustness in a thermally optimized SRP-F package - making it preferred for continuous 5 mA biasing in industrial control modules.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of RKZ22BKV#P1?
The RKZ22BKV#P1 has a Zener voltage range of 20.88 V to 23.17 V at IZ = 5 mA, corresponding to a ±5% tolerance band. This specification is guaranteed under standard test conditions (Ta = 25 °C, pulse width = 40 ms) and reflects the device's tight process control for reference-grade stability.
Does RKZ22BKV#P1 support bidirectional ESD protection?
Yes, RKZ22BKV#P1 is rated for ±30 kV ESD per IEC 61000-4-2 (C = 150 pF, R = 330 Ω) in both forward and reverse directions. Its symmetrical junction structure enables effective clamping of transients on either polarity - commonly applied across differential bus lines like RS-485 A/B.
What is the thermal derating behavior of RKZ22BKV#P1?
RKZ22BKV#P1 derates linearly from 700 mW at 25 °C ambient to 0 mW at 150 °C ambient when mounted on a 50 × 50 mm glass-epoxy PCB with 10 × 10 mm copper land. At 85 °C ambient, its usable power drops to approximately 490 mW - critical for thermal design in enclosed industrial enclosures.
Can RKZ22BKV#P1 replace a 1N4747A in existing designs?
RKZ22BKV#P1 is not a direct drop-in replacement for 1N4747A due to differing packages (SRP-F vs. DO-41) and thermal characteristics. While both regulate near 22 V, RKZ22BKV#P1 requires PCB redesign for SMT assembly and delivers superior ESD immunity (±30 kV vs. ~1 kV) and lower rd (55 Ω vs. ~75 Ω).
What does the "B" in RKZ22BKV#P1 signify?
The "B" in RKZ22BKV#P1 denotes ±5% Zener voltage tolerance, consistent with Renesas' RKZ-KV Series nomenclature. It is distinct from "A" (±2%) and "C" (±10%) variants - confirming RKZ22BKV#P1's suitability for general-purpose regulation where moderate precision suffices.
