BZB84-B6V8,215

Overview

The Nexperia BZB84-B6V8,215 is a dual Zener diode featuring a common anode configuration in a SOT-23 (TO-236AB) surface-mount package. It provides two independent voltage regulation channels with a nominal working voltage of 6.8 V and a tolerance of ±2%. The device supports a total power dissipation of up to 300 mW per device and handles non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation of 40 W per diode. Operating temperatures range from -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature. It is qualified under the AEC-Q101 standard for automotive applications.

Feature Summary

• Dual common anode configuration enabling compact circuit designs
• AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive reliability requirements
• Wide operating temperature range suitable for harsh environments

Applications

• General regulation functions
• Automotive electronics circuits
• Voltage reference applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current documentation to ensure correct packaging and manufacturing origin details. Confirm that the component meets the required AEC-Q101 automotive standards if intended for vehicle systems. Cross-reference the marking code 'VM' on the physical device to validate authenticity and part identity before integration into production lines.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual Zener solution with a shared ground reference is required to save board space. The ±2% tolerance series offers tighter voltage accuracy compared to the ±5% variant. Ensure the design accounts for the 300 mW total power dissipation limit across both diodes rather than treating them as independent high-power devices.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BZB84 series of low-power dual Zener diodes manufactured by Nexperia. The series covers a wide voltage range from 2.4 V to 75 V in normalized E24 values. It utilizes the standard SOT-23 plastic package, making it compatible with existing surface-mount footprints designed for TO-236AB components.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other BZB84-B6V8 variants from Nexperia with different packaging suffixes. Generic equivalents may exist but require verification of pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics.
