BZX384C4V7-G3-18

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The BZX384C4V7-G3-18 is a silicon planar power Zener diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. It provides a nominal Zener voltage of 4.7 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%. The device is designed for surface-mount installation in the SOD-323 (SC-76) plastic package, offering a maximum power dissipation of 200 mW. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and complies with RoHS directives.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon planar technology for robust voltage regulation
• Encapsulated in a compact SOD-323 surface-mount package
• Lead-free construction compliant with environmental standards

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• General voltage regulation functions
• Low-power voltage reference circuits
• Protection against overvoltage transients

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix G3-18 corresponds to the required reel packaging configuration. Confirm that the C designation aligns with the necessary ±5% voltage tolerance for the design. Ensure the component meets the thermal management requirements for the intended application environment.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor is required alongside moderate precision voltage regulation. The SOD-323 package suits space-constrained designs. Verify that the 200 mW power rating is sufficient for the expected current levels and ambient operating temperatures.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the BZX384-V-Series, which includes various Zener voltages from 2.4 V to 75 V. The series offers both ±2% (B-series) and ±5% (C-series) tolerance options. All variants share the same physical footprint and electrical characteristics regarding power dissipation and thermal resistance.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include other BZX384C4V7 variants from Vishay or cross-referenced Zener diodes in the SOD-323 package with matching 4.7 V nominal voltage and ±5% tolerance.
