Product details
Overview
SZBZX84C27ET1G from onsemi is a 27 V, 250 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOT-23 package, designed for precision voltage regulation and reference applications with ±1.9 V tolerance at 5 mA test current, 80 Ω dynamic impedance, and −0.05 μA leakage at 21.2 V reverse bias. It serves as a stable shunt regulator in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and voltage clamp stages in portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84C27ET1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include nominal Zener voltage (27 V), power rating (250 mW on FR-5), temperature coefficient (+18.9 mV/°C), ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), and SOT-23 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt regulator, maintaining a stable reverse-biased breakdown voltage across its cathode-anode terminals under controlled current conditions. Its Zener voltage is specified at three test currents (1 mA, 5 mA, and 20 mA), with corresponding dynamic impedances of 300 Ω, 80 Ω, and 45 Ω - confirming low-impedance regulation performance near nominal operating point.
The SZBZX84C27ET1G features AEC-Q101 qualification, Pb-free RoHS compliance, and UL 94 V-0 flammability rating. Its thermal resistance is 500 °C/W on FR-5 board and 417 °C/W on alumina substrate, supporting reliable operation within −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 25.1–28.9 V @ IZT = 5 mA - defines regulated output voltage window for feedback or clamping use |
| Power Dissipation | 250 mW on FR-5 board - sets maximum continuous power handling without derating at 25 °C ambient |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 80 Ω @ 5 mA - indicates low AC impedance for stable regulation under varying load conditions |
| Reverse Leakage Current | ≤0.05 μA @ VR = 21.2 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in standby or high-impedance sensing nodes |
| Temperature Coefficient | +18.9 mV/°C @ 5 mA - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius, critical for temperature-stable references |
| Capacitance | 70 pF @ VR = 0 V, f = 1 MHz - impacts high-frequency noise filtering and signal integrity in RF-adjacent circuits |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) HBM - enables robust handling during automated assembly and end-use in handheld devices |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (TO-236) package: 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm × 1.00 mm body, 1.90 mm pitch, void-free thermosetting plastic case with corrosion-resistant solderable finish and cathode polarity band marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Anode) | Current entry terminal in forward bias; reference node in reverse-bias regulation | Connected to lower-potential side of regulated circuit; must be routed with low-inductance trace for stability |
| 2 (No Connection) | Internally unconnected lead | Must remain floating - no PCB trace or pad connection permitted to avoid parasitic coupling or mechanical stress |
| 3 (Cathode) | Current exit terminal in forward bias; regulated voltage node in reverse bias | Connected to voltage source or feedback node; polarity band on package identifies this terminal visually |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, humidity testing, and mechanical shock |
| Pb-free and RoHS compliant | Meets global environmental regulations; compatible with lead-free reflow profiles up to 260 °C for 10 seconds |
| High ESD immunity | Withstands >16 kV human-body-model discharge without parameter shift or failure - reduces field return risk |
| Low-profile SOT-23 footprint | Enables placement in space-constrained designs such as smartphone power rails and wearable sensor modules |
| Stable temperature coefficient | +18.9 mV/°C allows predictable voltage drift compensation in industrial temperature ranges (−40 °C to +85 °C) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84C27ET1G | No AEC-Q101 qualification; identical electrical specs and SOT-23 pinout | Not approved for automotive systems requiring PPAP documentation or extended temperature validation | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance needs and full lifecycle support is not required |
| MMSZ4688T1G | 27 V nominal, but higher ZZT (100 Ω @ 5 mA) and wider VZ tolerance (25.7–28.3 V) | Lower regulation precision; suitable for non-critical biasing where ±5% voltage error is acceptable | Choose for legacy designs using MMSZ series footprints or where tighter thermal coefficient is not needed |
Compared with SZBZX84C27ET1G, BZX84C27ET1G offers identical regulation performance without automotive qualification, while MMSZ4688T1G trades precision for broader availability and lower unit cost in non-automotive consumer applications.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and tolerance of SZBZX84C27ET1G?
The SZBZX84C27ET1G has a nominal Zener voltage of 27 V with a minimum of 25.1 V and maximum of 28.9 V at 5 mA test current. This ±1.9 V tolerance reflects manufacturing variation and ensures predictable regulation behavior across production lots while maintaining compatibility with standard 27 V system thresholds.
Is SZBZX84C27ET1G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZBZX84C27ET1G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, making it suitable for automotive applications including engine control units, ADAS power supplies, and infotainment system voltage references. Its qualification covers temperature cycling, humidity testing, and mechanical shock per automotive reliability standards.
What is the maximum power dissipation of SZBZX84C27ET1G on an FR-5 board?
SZBZX84C27ET1G delivers 250 mW total power dissipation on FR-5 board at 25 °C ambient, derating linearly at 2.0 mW/°C above that temperature. This rating assumes standard JEDEC-defined board layout and enables safe operation in handheld and portable equipment with limited airflow.
How does the temperature coefficient affect SZBZX84C27ET1G performance?
The SZBZX84C27ET1G exhibits a temperature coefficient of +18.9 mV/°C at 5 mA, meaning its Zener voltage increases by approximately 18.9 mV per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature. This positive drift must be accounted for in precision reference designs operating across wide ambient ranges.
What is the pin configuration and polarity marking for SZBZX84C27ET1G?
SZBZX84C27ET1G uses SOT-23 package with Pin 1 = Anode, Pin 2 = No Connection, Pin 3 = Cathode. The cathode is marked by a visible polarity band on the package body, and Pin 2 must remain unconnected on the PCB to prevent mechanical stress or parasitic coupling.
