Product details
Overview
SZBZX84C43ET1G from onsemi is a 43 V, 250 mW Zener diode in SOT-23 package, designed for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in space-constrained circuits. It delivers nominal Zener voltage of 43 V at 5 mA test current, with dynamic impedance of 150 Ω, ±5% tolerance, and −55 °C to +150 °C operating junction temperature range. It is used in power supply feedback loops, voltage reference circuits, and ESD-sensitive portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84C43ET1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (500 °C/W on FR-5), peak pulse power (225 W), AEC-Q101 qualification, and Pb-free RoHS compliance.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference diode, conducting in reverse breakdown when reverse-biased above its specified Zener voltage. Its electrical behavior is defined by three test points: VZ1 = 40–46 V @ IZT1 = 5 mA, VZ2 = 39.7–46 V @ IZT2 = 1 mA, and VZ3 = 40.1–46.5 V @ IZT3 = 20 mA - confirming stable regulation across load-current variations.
The diode exhibits a temperature coefficient of +30.1 to +46.6 mV/°C, indicating positive drift with temperature, and capacitance of 40 pF at 0 V bias and 1 MHz - critical for high-frequency noise suppression and transient response in regulator feedback paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84C43ET1G | Same electrical specs and SOT-23 package but lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and automotive PPAP support | Not approved for automotive production; suitable only for commercial-grade consumer or industrial equipment | Select if automotive qualification is unnecessary and cost sensitivity outweighs long-term supply assurance |
| MMBZ5267BLT1 | 43 V Zener, 225 mW rating, 100 Ω ZZT, but rated only to +125 °C junction and not AEC-Q101 qualified | Limited to non-automotive applications due to lower temperature rating and absence of automotive stress testing | Choose when lower dynamic impedance is prioritized and extended temperature operation is not required |
Compared with SZBZX84C43ET1G, BZX84C43ET1G offers identical regulation performance but no automotive traceability, while MMBZ5267BLT1 trades 25 mW power headroom and 25 °C junction margin for slightly better impedance - making SZBZX84C43ET1G the sole choice for AEC-Q101-compliant designs needing full temperature and reliability coverage.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZBZX84C43ET1G?
The SZBZX84C43ET1G has a nominal Zener voltage of 43 V with a minimum of 40 V and maximum of 46 V at 5 mA test current, corresponding to a ±5% tolerance band. This tolerance is verified per onsemi's Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the August 2024 datasheet, and applies under standard test conditions of TA = 25 °C. The SZBZX84C43ET1G maintains this specification across its qualified operating temperature range.
Is SZBZX84C43ET1G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZBZX84C43ET1G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, with manufacturing site and control change requirements explicitly supported by the "SZ" prefix. It meets automotive reliability standards including high-temperature operation up to +150 °C junction temperature, robust ESD immunity (>16 kV HBM), and controlled process flow - making it appropriate for engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS power domains where SZBZX84C43ET1G is deployed.
What is the thermal resistance of SZBZX84C43ET1G on FR-5 board?
The thermal resistance from junction-to-ambient (RJA) for SZBZX84C43ET1G is 500 °C/W when mounted on an FR-5 board, as specified in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of the datasheet. This value assumes a standard 1.0 × 0.75 × 0.62 inch board and defines the temperature rise per milliwatt of dissipated power - critical for derating calculations in SZBZX84C43ET1G thermal design.
Does SZBZX84C43ET1G have a no-connect pin, and how should it be handled?
Yes, SZBZX84C43ET1G uses Pin 2 as a no-connect terminal, per the mechanical outline Style 8 and Electrical Characteristics note on page 2. This pin must remain unconnected on the PCB - no trace, pad, or solder joint should be assigned to it. Leaving Pin 2 floating avoids parasitic coupling and ensures accurate Zener regulation performance in the SZBZX84C43ET1G circuit implementation.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C43ET1G?
The maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for SZBZX84C43ET1G is 50 nA at VR = 34 V, as stated in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3. This low leakage supports high-impedance reference applications and minimizes standby power loss - a confirmed parameter directly measured and published for SZBZX84C43ET1G, not extrapolated from adjacent variants.
