Product details
Overview
SZBZX84C6V8LT1 from onsemi is a 6.8 V ±5% Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 250 mW power dissipation at 25°C, with 15 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current and 2 µA reverse leakage at 5 V, used for voltage regulation in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84C6V8LT1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (500 °C/W), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference, clamping reverse voltage at nominal 6.8 V with temperature coefficient of +1.2 mV/°C. It exhibits low dynamic impedance (15 Ω @ 5 mA) and tight voltage distribution across production lots due to standard-tolerance Zener construction.
The SOT-23 package enables high-density PCB placement and automated assembly, while its Pb-free, RoHS-compliant construction meets automotive and industrial environmental requirements. The cathode is marked by a band on terminal 3, with terminal 2 internally unconnected.
