Product details
Overview
SZBZX84C11LT1 from onsemi is a 11 V ±5.5% (10.4–11.6 V) Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 225 mW power dissipation on FR-5 board at 25°C, with 20 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 8.8 V, used for voltage regulation in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84C11LT1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include nominal Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (556 °C/W), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), junction temperature range (−65 to +150°C), and Pb-free SOT-23 packaging compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference diode, conducting in reverse breakdown to clamp voltage at its specified Zener voltage. It exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +5.4 mV/°C at 5 mA, enabling predictable drift compensation in bias networks.
Its SOT-23 package features a defined pinout (Anode–NC–Cathode), with terminal 2 internally unconnected and electrically isolated. The device meets AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability and supports Pb-free reflow soldering up to 260°C for 10 seconds.

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84C11LT1 | Same Zener voltage range (10.4–11.6 V) and SOT-23 package, but lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and automotive-grade traceability. | Restricted to commercial-grade consumer electronics; not suitable for automotive production programs. | Select BZX84C11LT1 only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where PPAP documentation is unnecessary. |
| SZBZX84C11LT1G | Identical electrical specs and AEC-Q101 qualification; differs only in Pb-free marking suffix and RoHS-compliant plating. | No functional difference; both support same reflow profiles and thermal performance. | SZBZX84C11LT1G is preferred for new designs requiring full RoHS compliance and documented Pb-free sourcing. |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZBZX84C11LT1?
The SZBZX84C11LT1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 11 V with a tolerance range of 10.4 V to 11.6 V at 5 mA test current, corresponding to ±5.5% variation. This tolerance is verified per the onsemi BZX84CxxxLT1 series datasheet Rev. 14, page 3, and applies under standard ambient conditions (TA = 25°C). The SZBZX84C11LT1 maintains this specification across its qualified operating temperature range.
Does SZBZX84C11LT1 have a connected pin 2?
No, pin 2 of the SZBZX84C11LT1 is internally unconnected (NC) and must remain floating on the PCB-no trace, pad, or via should be attached to it. The official pinout is Anode (pin 1), NC (pin 2), Cathode (pin 3), as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the onsemi datasheet. Connecting pin 2 may compromise device reliability or cause unintended current paths.
Is SZBZX84C11LT1 qualified for automotive use?
Yes, SZBZX84C11LT1 is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, as explicitly stated in the Features section of the onsemi datasheet. The "SZ" prefix denotes automotive and other applications requiring unique site and control change requirements. This qualification covers temperature cycling, humidity testing, and mechanical stress validation per AEC standards, making SZBZX84C11LT1 suitable for under-hood and cabin control modules.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C11LT1?
The maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C11LT1 is 0.1 µA at VR = 8.8 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the onsemi datasheet. This value is measured at TA = 25°C and defines the upper bound of off-state conduction, critical for low-power bias networks and battery-operated systems where standby current must be minimized.
Can SZBZX84C11LT1 be used in high-frequency applications?
SZBZX84C11LT1 exhibits 130 pF capacitance at 0 V bias and 1 MHz, limiting its effectiveness above ~1 MHz in AC-coupled or RF-sensitive circuits. Its primary design purpose is DC/low-frequency voltage regulation and clamping-not RF signal path use. For high-frequency bypass, pairing with a ceramic capacitor is recommended; standalone use above 10 MHz is not supported by datasheet characterization.
