BZX384C9V1-G3-08

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The BZX384C9V1-G3-08 is a single silicon planar power Zener diode manufactured by Vishay Semiconductors. It utilizes the SOD-323 surface-mount package and provides a nominal Zener voltage of 9.1 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%. The device supports a maximum power dissipation of 200 mW at an ambient temperature of 25 °C, provided electrodes remain at ambient temperature. Electrical characteristics include a dynamic impedance of 60 Ohms and a reverse leakage current of 5 µA at the test current of 5 mA. The component operates within a junction temperature range up to 150 °C and a storage temperature range from -65 °C to +150 °C.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Utilizes silicon planar technology for robust performance in small signal applications.
• Compliant with RoHS directives and lead-free manufacturing standards.
• Zener voltages graded according to international E24 standard values.

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Voltage reference circuits requiring stable low-voltage sources.
• Clamping and protection stages in signal processing paths.
• Biasing networks for transistor amplifier stages.

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix G3 confirms lead-free composition and RoHS compliance before integration. Confirm the C designation indicates the standard 5% voltage tolerance rather than the tighter B grade. Ensure the SOD-323 footprint matches the target PCB layout constraints. Validate that the 200 mW power rating aligns with the thermal management capabilities of the final assembly environment.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact surface-mount Zener diode is required for voltage regulation or clamping tasks. The SOD-323 package offers space efficiency compared to larger axial leads. The 5% tolerance suits general-purpose applications where precise voltage referencing is not critical. Consider the 200 mW power dissipation limit to ensure adequate thermal headroom during operation.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the BZX384-V-Series of small signal Zener diodes produced by Vishay Semiconductors. The series encompasses various voltage ratings within the SOD-323 case style. These components are designed for general-purpose electronic circuits requiring reliable voltage stabilization in a minimal footprint.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Substitutes must match the SOD-323 package, 9.1 V nominal voltage, and 200 mW power rating. Verify equivalent dynamic impedance and leakage current specifications to maintain circuit stability.
