Product details
Overview
SZBZX84C9V1ET3G from onsemi is a 9.1 V, 250 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOT-23 package, designed for precision voltage regulation and reference in space-constrained circuits. It delivers ±5% Zener voltage tolerance at 5 mA test current, 15 Ω dynamic impedance, and 0.5 µA reverse leakage at 7.2 V, supporting stable biasing in portable power management and signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84C9V1ET3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal coefficient (±3.8 mV/°C), low capacitance (130 pF), ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference with cathode-anode polarity, requiring no external bias circuitry. Its Zener breakdown is specified at IZT = 5 mA (VZ = 8.5–9.6 V), with dynamic impedance measured at both 1 mA (100 Ω) and 5 mA (15 Ω) to reflect performance across operating currents.
Thermal behavior is defined by RJA = 500 °C/W on FR-5 board and junction temperature range of −65 °C to +150 °C. The SOT-23 package supports automated placement and features UL 94 V-0 flammability rating and Pb-free RoHS compliance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZBZX84C9V1ET3G at 5 mA test current?
The SZBZX84C9V1ET3G has a Zener voltage range of 8.5 V to 9.6 V at IZT = 5 mA, corresponding to a nominal 9.1 V with ±5% tolerance. This specification is verified per onsemi's August 2024 datasheet revision and applies under standard ambient conditions (TA = 25 °C). The SZBZX84C9V1ET3G maintains this tolerance across its qualified operating temperature range.
Is SZBZX84C9V1ET3G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZBZX84C9V1ET3G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, meeting the stress test requirements for automotive electronics including temperature cycling, humidity bias, and mechanical shock. Its −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and robust ESD rating (>16 kV HBM) make it appropriate for engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS sensors. The SZBZX84C9V1ET3G is explicitly designated for automotive use via the "SZ" prefix.
What is the thermal resistance of SZBZX84C9V1ET3G on an FR-5 board?
The thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RJA) for SZBZX84C9V1ET3G is 500 °C/W when mounted on an FR-5 board per the manufacturer's datasheet. This value assumes standard 1.0 × 0.75 × 0.62 inch board dimensions and defines the maximum allowable power dissipation (250 mW at TA = 25 °C) before derating begins. The SZBZX84C9V1ET3G must be operated within this thermal limit to ensure long-term reliability.
Does SZBZX84C9V1ET3G have a built-in capacitor or require external filtering?
No, SZBZX84C9V1ET3G is a discrete Zener diode with no integrated capacitor. Its typical junction capacitance is 130 pF at 0 V bias and 1 MHz, which is inherent to the PN junction and not added externally. Designers may add external RC filters if high-frequency noise rejection is needed, but the SZBZX84C9V1ET3G itself functions as a purely passive voltage reference without auxiliary components.
How does the pinout of SZBZX84C9V1ET3G differ from standard SOT-23 diodes?
SZBZX84C9V1ET3G uses Style 8 pinout per onsemi's mechanical drawings: Pin 1 = Anode, Pin 2 = No Connection, Pin 3 = Cathode. Unlike general-purpose SOT-23 diodes that may use Pin 1 = Cathode, this configuration isolates Pin 2 electrically and requires correct orientation during placement. The SZBZX84C9V1ET3G marking band aligns with Pin 3 (cathode), confirming polarity on the PCB silkscreen.
