BZX84-B43

Nexperia · Zener Diodes · SOT-23(TO-236AB)

BZX84-B43 from Nexperia, in a SOT-23(TO-236AB). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model). Symbol and footprint from KiCad-official CAD; the 3D model is generated from the datasheet's package dimensions.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 A passive Anode of the voltage regulator diode; the datasheet limits the device forward current IF to 200 mA maximum (Table 5).
2 n.c. unconnected Not connected; the pinning table lists this pin as not connected.
3 K passive Cathode of the voltage regulator diode; for BZX84-B43 the working voltage VZ is 42.10 V minimum to 43.90 V maximum at IZ = 2 mA (Table 9).

CAD (land: KiCad; 3D: generated from the datasheet)

  • Symbol: BZX84-B43
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23
  • 3D model: SOT-23(TO-236AB), generated on the KiCad land (body 1.3 x 2.9 mm, terminals on the pads, 1.0 mm tall, datasheet A, midpoint of min and max). KiCad's stock model for this land is taller than the datasheet allows, so the model is generated from the datasheet drawing; the dimensions come from the datasheet drawing where it was read and are defaults otherwise (see provenance.model_3d_generated), not the manufacturer's CAD (STEP)
  • 3D model files: bzx84-b43-etched.step / bzx84-b43-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); bzx84-b43.step / bzx84-b43.glb are the bare package body.
