BZX8850-C51YL

Single Zener Diodes Overview

The Nexperia BZX8850-C51YL is a low-current voltage regulator diode from the BZX8850 series, housed in an SOD882 (DFN1006-2) leadless ultra-small Surface-Mounted Device plastic package. It features a nominal working voltage of 51 V with ±5% tolerance and a total power dissipation of ≤ 250 mW. The device is specified at a low test current of 50 μA, making it suitable for low bias applications. Electrical characteristics include a maximum forward voltage of 0.9 V at 10 mA and a non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation of 40 W.

Single Zener Diodes Feature Summary

• Ultra-small leadless DFN1006-2 surface-mounted package design
• Optimized for low bias and portable battery-powered applications via low test current specification
• Intentional minor rise of leakage current for optimized fast switching and noise reduction

Single Zener Diodes Applications

• Low-current general regulation functions

Single Zener Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'YL' against the official Nexperia datasheet or distributor catalogs to confirm reel/packaging specifications. Ensure the component matches the standard BZX8850-C51 electrical parameters defined in the product data sheet before integration into designs.

Single Zener Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component for circuits requiring precise voltage regulation at 51 V within space-constrained environments. The SOD882 package offers a compact footprint suitable for high-density PCB layouts. Consider the low test current requirement when designing bias networks to ensure accurate voltage reference performance.

Single Zener Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the Nexperia BZX8850 series of general-purpose Zener diodes. The series provides a comprehensive range of nominal working voltages from 1.8 V to 51 V in an ultra-small plastic package. These diodes are designed to replace larger through-hole components in modern portable electronics where board space is limited.

Single Zener Diodes Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include other BZX8850 variants with different voltage ratings or tolerances. Cross-series replacements should match the SOD882 package dimensions and thermal characteristics while verifying that the replacement's voltage tolerance and leakage current profiles meet the original design requirements.
