BZX84 SOT-23 Voltage Regulator Diode Variants

Nexperia BZX84 variants are SOT-23 voltage regulator diodes used for compact Zener clamps, references, bias regulation, and low-current protection networks.

Package

Common small package for board-level clamps.

Voltage range

Covers many common reference and clamp voltages.

Tolerance grades

Supports different voltage-accuracy needs.

Nexperia SOT-23 Zener regulator diodes across voltage and tolerance grades

Compare BZX84 variants by Zener voltage, tolerance class, package, qualification, leakage, and power rating.

The BZX84 family from Nexperia is a surface-mount voltage regulator diode series in the SOT-23 / TO-236AB package class. It covers many Zener voltages and tolerance grades, including A, B, and C style variants in common ordering codes. These parts are used for signal clamps, bias references, local rail limiting, and simple shunt regulation in consumer, industrial, and automotive electronics.

Although BZX84 parts share the same family prefix, the voltage code, tolerance letter, package suffix, and qualification marker determine the actual use case. Check nominal Zener voltage at test current, tolerance, dynamic impedance, leakage, temperature coefficient, power rating, thermal resistance, and whether the order code is automotive-qualified. For surge-heavy protection, compare dedicated TVS devices rather than assuming a small Zener diode is sufficient.

Key Features

  • Broad Zener voltage range in a standard SOT-23 package
  • Tolerance-letter variants support different accuracy classes
  • Useful for compact clamp and reference networks
  • Automotive-qualified order codes appear in selected variants

Ordering Code Differences

How suffixes on BZX84 map to package, grade, and reel options.

[{"code":"A, B, C tolerance letters","meaning":"Indicate different Zener voltage tolerance classes; verify the exact datasheet table."},{"code":"Voltage code","meaning":"Part-number voltage markers such as 3V9, 5V6, 12, or 39 identify nominal Vz."},{"code":"DG or automotive markers","meaning":"Selected order codes may indicate qualification or green package options."},{"code":"215 / 235 suffixes","meaning":"Packing or reel identifiers used in Nexperia ordering codes."}]

How to Choose the Right BZX84 Zener Diodes

💡

Choose voltage at operating current

Zener voltage depends on current; compare the datasheet curve to the real circuit point.

💡

Match tolerance grade

A, B, and C variants can differ in voltage accuracy and are not always interchangeable.

💡

Use TVS for surge energy

Small BZX84 devices are not substitutes for high-pulse-power protection unless ratings prove it.
