BZT52C3V6S-7-F-79

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The BZT52C3V6S-7-F-79 is a single surface-mount Zener diode manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a nominal Zener voltage of 3.6 V with a tolerance of ±5.56% and a maximum power dissipation of 200 mW. The device utilizes an SOD-323-2 package, measuring 2.7 mm in length, 1.4 mm in width, and 1.1 mm in height. It operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C and has a test current of 5 mA.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Provides stable voltage regulation at a nominal 3.6 V level for circuit protection and reference applications.
• Utilizes a compact SOD-323-2 surface-mount package designed for automated assembly and space-constrained designs.
• Engineered for reliable operation across a wide industrial temperature range from -65°C to +150°C.

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring precise low-voltage stabilization
• Overvoltage protection for sensitive semiconductor inputs
• Clamping applications in signal conditioning paths

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix -79 against current manufacturer documentation, as production change notices indicate potential discontinuation or transition to the standard BZT52C3V6S-7-F variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status and ensure the sourcing channel provides valid traceability for this discontinued or legacy part number before finalizing procurement contracts.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 3.6 V Zener voltage is required in a small SMD footprint. Ensure the application current does not exceed the 200 mW power dissipation limit at the maximum operating temperature. Verify that the ±5.56% voltage tolerance meets the system's precision requirements compared to tighter tolerance alternatives.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the BZT52C series of general-purpose Zener diodes from Diodes Incorporated. The series offers various voltage ratings in the SOD-323 package, providing a standardized solution for low-power voltage regulation tasks across consumer and industrial electronics markets.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Public documents indicate the BZT52C3V6S-7-F-79 may be superseded by the BZT52C3V6S-7-F. Verify electrical equivalence and package compatibility before substitution.
