Product details
Overview
SZBZX84C33ET3G from onsemi is a 33 V, 250 mW Zener diode in SOT-23 package, designed for precision voltage regulation and reference applications with ±2 V tolerance at 5 mA test current, 80 Ω dynamic impedance, and −55 °C to +150 °C operating range-used in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and voltage clamping in portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84C33ET3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal derating behavior, ESD robustness (Class 3, >16 kV HBM), junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (500 °C/W on FR-5), and automotive-grade qualification status per AEC-Q101.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference diode, conducting in reverse breakdown at nominal 33 V with temperature coefficient of +23.1 mV/°C at 5 mA. Its SOT-23 package features pin 1 (anode), pin 2 (no connection), and pin 3 (cathode), enabling unidirectional clamping with low capacitance (70 pF at 0 V, 1 MHz).
It supports transient suppression up to 225 W peak power (8 × 20 µs pulse), exhibits 0.05 µA max reverse leakage at 25 V, and maintains stable regulation across −55 °C to +150 °C ambient, with thermal derating starting at 2.0 mW/°C above 25 °C on FR-5 board.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 31 V min / 33 V nom / 35 V max @ IZT = 5 mA - defines regulation band for feedback or clamp design |
| Power Dissipation | 250 mW @ TA = 25 °C on FR-5 board - sets continuous DC load limit before thermal derating |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 80 Ω max @ IZT = 5 mA - determines output voltage stability under varying load current |
| Reverse Leakage Current | 0.05 µA max @ VR = 25 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in high-impedance bias networks |
| 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) per Human Body Model - enables direct handling and board-level integration without added protection |
| Junction Temp Range | −55 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in automotive engine compartments and industrial control enclosures |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (TO-236) surface-mount plastic package, 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm × 1.00 mm, void-free thermosetting case with corrosion-resistant finish, UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, cathode indicated by polarity band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Connected to lower-potential node in reverse-bias configuration; must be held ≤33 V below cathode for regulation |
| 2 | No Connection | Internally isolated; no PCB trace or solder pad required - reduces layout complexity and parasitic coupling |
| 3 | Cathode | Connected to regulated voltage rail or reference point; polarity band aligns with this terminal |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84C33ET3G | Non-automotive grade; same electrical specs but lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and PPAP capability | Suitable for commercial/industrial designs where automotive reliability validation is not required | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification needs and supply chain allows non-SZ prefix |
| MMSZ4702T1G | 33 V nominal, 500 mW rating, SOD-123 package; higher power but larger footprint and 30 Ω ZZT | Better suited for higher-current regulation or less space-constrained boards requiring lower impedance | Choose when thermal margin is critical and board area permits 2.7 mm × 1.6 mm package instead of SOT-23 |
Compared with SZBZX84C33ET3G, BZX84C33ET3G offers identical regulation performance at lower qualification cost, while MMSZ4702T1G trades smaller size for higher power and lower impedance-making each optimal for distinct thermal, reliability, and layout constraints.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZBZX84C33ET3G at 5 mA test current?
The SZBZX84C33ET3G has a Zener voltage range of 31 V (minimum) to 35 V (maximum) at IZT = 5 mA, with 33 V as the nominal value. This ±2 V tolerance reflects manufacturing variation and must be accounted for in feedback loop gain and margin analysis. The device's temperature coefficient of +23.1 mV/°C further influences regulation accuracy across operating temperature ranges.
Is SZBZX84C33ET3G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SZBZX84C33ET3G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, meeting automotive reliability standards for stress testing, lifetime validation, and process control. The "SZ" prefix explicitly denotes automotive-grade screening and traceability, distinguishing it from commercial-grade BZX84C33ET3G variants that lack this qualification.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C33ET3G at 25 V?
The maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C33ET3G is 0.05 µA at VR = 25 V and TA = 25 °C. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal current draw in high-impedance reference networks and preserves battery life in always-on portable systems where standby power is critical.
How does thermal derating affect the power handling of SZBZX84C33ET3G on FR-5 board?
SZBZX84C33ET3G dissipates 250 mW at 25 °C ambient on FR-5 board, with linear derating of 2.0 mW/°C above that temperature. At 75 °C ambient, its usable power drops to 150 mW. Designers must calculate worst-case junction temperature using RJA = 500 °C/W to avoid exceeding the +150 °C absolute maximum junction rating.
What is the pin configuration and polarity marking for SZBZX84C33ET3G?
SZBZX84C33ET3G uses SOT-23 package with pin 1 = anode, pin 2 = no connection (unbonded), pin 3 = cathode. The cathode is marked by a visible polarity band adjacent to pin 3. This configuration ensures correct orientation during automated placement and prevents reverse-bias misconnection in shunt regulator circuits.
