This surface-mount Zener diode is a small semiconductor device used where a controlled reverse breakdown voltage is needed.

It is rated for a nominal 3.6V Zener voltage and 200mW maximum power, making it suitable for compact voltage reference, clamping and protection circuits.

The base part number is BZT52, with key electrical limits listed below for circuit selection and verification.

Specifications:

  • Voltage - Zener (Nom) (Vz): 3.6V
  • Tolerance: ±6%
  • Power - Max: 200mW
  • Impedance (Max) (Zzt): 90 Ohms
  • Current - Reverse Leakage @ Vr: 5µA @ 1V
  • Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Max) @ If: 900mV @ 10mA
  • Operating Temperature: -65°C ~ 150°C
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount
  • Base Part Number: BZT52

Useful for repairs, prototypes and small production builds where a 3.6V surface-mount Zener diode is required.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

Impedance
Impedance is the total opposition a component or circuit presents to alternating current, measured in ohms, combining resistance with frequency-dependent reactance. It appears in many contexts, such as matching a speaker's impedance (for example 4 ohm or 8 ohm) to an amplifier or the input and output impedance of signal circuits, and a correct match helps avoid weak signals, distortion or damage.
Tolerance
Tolerance tells you how far the real resistance value may be from the printed value. A 1% resistor is useful when a circuit needs more predictable behaviour than a looser 5% or 10% part.
voltage reference
A voltage reference is a stable, accurate voltage that a converter uses as its comparison point: an ADC measures its inputs relative to it, while a DAC scales its output to it. A more stable reference gives more consistent results, which matters most in precision sensing and instrumentation.
