Product details
Overview
SZBZX84C33ET1G from onsemi is a 33 V, ±5% tolerance Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 250 mW power dissipation on FR-5 board at 25°C, with 80 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.05 µA reverse leakage at 25.2 V. It provides precision voltage regulation in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84C33ET1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal coefficient (+27.4 mV/°C), junction temperature range (−65°C to +150°C), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in silicon PN junction. Its nominal Zener voltage of 33 V is specified at 5 mA test current (IZT1), with dynamic impedance measured at 80 Ω under same conditions. Temperature coefficient is +27.4 mV/°C, indicating positive drift with rising temperature.
The SOT-23 package features cathode-indicated polarity band, void-free thermosetting plastic case, UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, and 260°C maximum soldering temperature for 10 seconds. Pin 2 is internally unconnected - only pins 1 (anode) and 3 (cathode) are electrically active.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84C33ET1G | Non-automotive grade; lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and PPAP capability; identical electrical specs and SOT-23 package | Suitable for commercial-grade consumer electronics but not automotive Tier-1 supply chains | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification requirements |
| MMSZ5261BT1G | Same 33 V nominal Zener voltage but 500 mW power rating; 30 Ω dynamic impedance at 20 mA; different SOD-123 package | Higher power handling enables use in higher-current regulation; larger footprint limits ultra-dense layouts | Choose for applications requiring >250 mW continuous dissipation or lower impedance at higher currents |
Compared with SZBZX84C33ET1G, BZX84C33ET1G offers identical regulation performance without automotive validation, while MMSZ5261BT1G trades smaller size for higher power and lower impedance - making SZBZX84C33ET1G optimal for AEC-Q101-compliant, space-constrained designs needing 250 mW capability.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZBZX84C33ET1G?
The SZBZX84C33ET1G has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% around its nominal 33 V rating, meaning the actual breakdown voltage falls between 31 V and 35 V when tested at 5 mA (IZT1). This tolerance is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and is critical for precision reference applications where regulation accuracy directly impacts system performance.
Is SZBZX84C33ET1G qualified for automotive use?
Yes, SZBZX84C33ET1G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, confirming its suitability for automotive applications including engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS sensor interfaces. The "SZ" prefix explicitly denotes automotive-grade manufacturing controls, site-specific change management, and enhanced reliability testing beyond standard commercial parts.
What is the function of Pin 2 on SZBZX84C33ET1G?
Pin 2 of the SZBZX84C33ET1G is a no-connect terminal - it is internally unconnected and must remain unattached on the PCB. This configuration is confirmed in the official datasheet's marking diagram and mechanical outline (Style 8), where only Pins 1 (anode) and 3 (cathode) carry electrical functionality.
How does the temperature coefficient affect SZBZX84C33ET1G performance?
The SZBZX84C33ET1G exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +27.4 mV/°C at 5 mA, meaning its Zener voltage increases linearly with junction temperature. This behavior must be accounted for in high-precision references; for example, a 50°C rise causes ~1.37 V increase in regulation voltage, requiring thermal compensation or layout isolation in sensitive analog circuits.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C33ET1G?
The maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C33ET1G is 0.05 µA at VR = 25.2 V (80% of nominal Zener voltage), measured at 25°C ambient. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal current draw in high-impedance bias networks and preserves battery life in always-on portable systems where the SZBZX84C33ET1G serves as a reference or clamp.
