BZX884 Overview

What changes between part numbers, and what to check before you lock the BOM — Zener Diodes.

BZX884 is a Nexperia order-code family — not a single orderable MPN. This page lists 19 variants that share the same core device but differ in suffix fields (package, grade, reel/tube, electrical bin, etc.). Pick the exact full part number; substituting within the family without checking the datasheet often causes assembly or spec mismatches.

DIODE ZENER 12V 250MW DFN1006-2 Other listed variants describe: DIODE ZENER 15V 250MW DFN1006-2; DIODE ZENER 16V 250MW DFN1006-2.

Suffix examples in this family: B12,315, B15,315, B16,315, B18,315, B20,315, B27,315, B2V4,315, B2V7,315. The characters after the base number usually encode package, temperature, or performance grade — compare the variant table column-by-column rather than assuming pin-compatible drops-in.

Example MPNs: BZX884-B12,315, BZX884-B15,315, BZX884-B16,315, BZX884-B18,315, BZX884-B20,315, BZX884-B27,315.

Key Features

Ordering Code Differences

How suffixes on BZX884 map to package, grade, and reel options.

BZX884 uses a shared prefix; characters after the prefix encode orderable options. Two lines with the same prefix are not drop-in replacements unless the differing columns match your need.

Suffixes seen here: B12,315, B15,315, B16,315, B18,315, B20,315, B27,315, B2V4,315, B2V7,315, B62,315, B6V8,315 (+9 more).

Full MPN examples: BZX884-B12,315, BZX884-B15,315, BZX884-B16,315, BZX884-B18,315, BZX884-B20,315.

Tip: photograph or copy the reel label — reel diameter, QTY per reel, and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) are often suffix-driven and won't show in the schematic.

How to Choose the Right BZX884 Zener Diodes

📦

Match the footprint first

Pull the exact package drawing for your MPN — base-number swaps fail most often at the footprint, not the schematic.

⚡

Electrical headroom

Compare voltage and current columns in the variant table. For BZX884, a suffix with lower voltage or current rating will not survive the same circuit without recalculation.

🌡️

Temp grade letter matters

Commercial (0–70 °C) and industrial (−40–85 °C+) suffixes look similar in the prefix — confirm ambient + self-heating, not just the first page of the datasheet.

🔢

Copy the full MPN

Do not BOM only "BZX884" — include the full suffix (e.g. B12,315, B15,315, B16,315). RFQ with reel/tube preference and required date code.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common technical questions about the BZX884 product family.

Is BZX884 a single part I can order, or a family prefix?

BZX884 is a base / family code from Nexperia. You order a full MPN such as BZX884-B12,315, BZX884-B15,315, BZX884-B16,315. The variant table lists 19 orderable lines with different suffixes.

What do the suffix letters on BZX884 part numbers mean?

Listed suffix fragments include: B12,315, B15,315, B16,315, B18,315, B20,315, B27,315. Typically they encode package (see Package column), temperature grade, and tape/reel option. Always decode on the Nexperia datasheet ordering guide — do not guess from pattern alone.

What is the lifecycle status of BZX884 variants?

Lifecycle values in our listing: Active. Status is per MPN suffix — one variant can be Active while another is NRND. Check PCN for your exact suffix before multi-year commitments.

What should I send for an RFQ on BZX884?

Full manufacturer MPN (not just BZX884), quantity, needed date code, reel vs tube, and any compliance docs (CoC, RoHS, conflict minerals). If you only know the base prefix, include a photo of the existing label or reel.
