Product details
Overview
TLZ9V1B-GS18 from Vishay Semiconductors is a precision small-signal Zener diode in MiniMELF (SOD-80) package, designed for voltage regulation and reference applications with nominal Zener voltage of 8.57–9.01 V at 20 mA test current, dynamic resistance of 8 Ω, and reverse leakage current ≤ 0.04 μA at 7.14 V. It delivers stable performance in low-power analog circuits and power supply feedback paths.
For engineers reviewing the TLZ9V1B-GS18 datasheet, TLZ9V1B-GS18 pinout, TLZ9V1B-GS18 application, or TLZ9V1B-GS18 equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, package dimensions, thermal behavior, marking code (9B1), and direct alternatives for voltage reference design, ESD-protected biasing, and precision shunt regulation.
Technical Context
The TLZ9V1B-GS18 operates as a single-element, silicon planar Zener diode with sharp reverse breakdown characteristic and low noise. Its junction temperature range spans −65 °C to +175 °C, and it maintains stability under pulsed and DC conditions up to 500 mW total power dissipation.
Designed for high-reliability signal conditioning, it exhibits a temperature coefficient of approximately +6 × 10⁻⁴/K near 9 V, low capacitance (<2 pF at VR = 2 V), and minimal voltage drift over time-enabling use in precision references where long-term calibration integrity is critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.57–9.01 V at IZT = 20 mA - defines tight regulation window for 9 V reference designs |
| Dynamic Resistance (ZZ) | 8 Ω max at IZT = 20 mA - ensures minimal output impedance and high line/load regulation |
| Reverse Leakage Current (IR) | ≤ 0.04 μA at VR = 7.14 V - enables ultra-low standby power in battery-backed circuits |
| Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 500 mW - supports continuous operation on standard PCBs without forced cooling |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −65 to +175 °C - suitable for industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
| Package | MiniMELF (SOD-80) - cylindrical glass package with cathode ring marking, 3.3–3.7 mm length, 1.4–1.6 mm diameter |
| Marking Code | 9B1 - laser-marked identifier visible on cathode end, enabling traceable assembly verification |
Pinout & Package
TLZ9V1B-GS18 uses a two-terminal MiniMELF (SOD-80) package: anode and cathode are axially oriented, with cathode identified by a black band (ring) near one end. No internal leads or substrate connections exist-device functions as a passive bilateral component with polarity-dependent conduction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode bias reference point | Connected to lower-potential node in shunt regulator; establishes forward drop (≤1.5 V @ 200 mA) during transient overvoltage |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / regulation output node | Connected to regulated rail; carries full Zener current during regulation; marked with black ring for orientation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Very sharp reverse characteristic | Enables clean, predictable knee at 9 V with <100 mV transition width - critical for accurate threshold detection |
| Low reverse leakage current | ≤0.04 μA at 80% VZ - preserves battery life in always-on sensor nodes and low-current bias networks |
| High stability and low noise | Long-term VZ drift <0.1% after 1000 h @ 50 °C - supports uncalibrated instrumentation-grade references |
| High reliability (MSL Level 1) | Unlimited floor life and reflow-compatible per J-STD-020 - eliminates bake requirements for SMT assembly |
| UL 94 V-0 molding compound | Self-extinguishing glass-encapsulated construction - meets safety standards for Class II power supplies and medical peripherals |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | USB-C Power Delivery Feedback |
|---|---|

Use Value: UL 94 V-0 encapsulation satisfies IEC 60601-1 flammability requirements; high long-term stability avoids recalibration drift. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX55C9V1-TR | Zener voltage 8.65–9.35 V (±5%), 500 mW, DO-35 package, higher dynamic resistance (10 Ω) | Larger footprint, lower thermal performance (RthJA ≈ 550 K/W), no MSL Level 1 rating | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer designs where MiniMELF size and reliability are noncritical |
| MMBZ5240BS-7-F | 9.1 V nominal, SOT-23 package, 225 mW, dynamic resistance 15 Ω, reverse leakage 0.1 μA | Surface-mount compatible but lower power handling and higher leakage limit system standby current | Preferred only when board space is constrained and 225 mW suffices; not drop-in due to different thermal profile and pinout |
Compared with TLZ9V1B-GS18, BZX55C9V1-TR offers broader voltage tolerance and lower cost but sacrifices precision and assembly robustness, while MMBZ5240BS-7-F trades power capability and leakage performance for miniaturization-making TLZ9V1B-GS18 optimal for high-stability, high-reliability shunt references where size and thermal margin permit MiniMELF use.

FAQ
What is the exact Zener voltage range for TLZ9V1B-GS18?
The TLZ9V1B-GS18 has a guaranteed Zener voltage range of 8.57 V to 9.01 V when tested at 20 mA (IZT). This specification is measured under standard conditions (Tamb = 25 °C) and reflects the B-grade tolerance within the TLZ-Series family, as confirmed in Vishay document 85635 Rev. 2.6.
Does TLZ9V1B-GS18 have a specified temperature coefficient?
Yes-TLZ9V1B-GS18 exhibits a typical temperature coefficient (TKVZ) of +6 × 10⁻⁴/K near its 9 V operating point, as shown in Figure 3 of the official datasheet. This positive coefficient means VZ increases ~0.054 V per 10 °C rise in junction temperature, a key factor in high-accuracy reference design.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for TLZ9V1B-GS18?
The maximum reverse leakage current for TLZ9V1B-GS18 is 0.04 μA at VR = 7.14 V (80% of nominal VZ), per the Electrical Characteristics table in Vishay's TLZ-Series datasheet. This ultra-low leakage supports energy-efficient designs in battery-powered and always-on systems.
Is TLZ9V1B-GS18 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes-TLZ9V1B-GS18 complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is halogen-free per Vishay's material categorization policy (document 99912). The MiniMELF glass package contains no lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE, and meets JEDEC JS-709E requirements.
What does the "GS18" suffix indicate in TLZ9V1B-GS18?
The "GS18" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging: 10,000 units per 8 mm tape on 13-inch reel, with moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 and peak reflow temperature rating of 260 °C. This format is optimized for automated SMT placement and conforms to J-STD-020 standards.
