Product details
Overview
SZBZX84B15LT1G from onsemi is a 15 V ±2% tight-tolerance Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 250 mW power dissipation on FR-5 board, with 30 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.05 µA reverse leakage at 10.5 V. It provides precision voltage regulation in space-constrained power rail clamping and reference applications.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84B15LT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±2%), thermal coefficient (+9.2 mV/°C), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), and automotive-grade AEC-Q101 qualification.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using controlled reverse-biased avalanche breakdown. Its 15 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 5 mA test current with ±2% tolerance, and exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +9.2 mV/°C over −65°C to +150°C junction range.
The SOT-23 package features anode (Pin 1), no-connection (Pin 2), and cathode (Pin 3) terminal configuration. It delivers 250 mW power handling on FR-5 board with 500 °C/W thermal resistance and supports automated surface-mount assembly per JEDEC standards.
