BZX84B18-E3-08

Vishay Intertech · Zener Diodes · SOT-23

BZX84B18-E3-08 from Vishay Intertech, in a SOT-23. 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 single Zener diode (BZX84B18: VZ 18 V nominal, ±2 %, 17.64 to 18.36 V at IZT1 = 5 mA).
2 NC unconnected Not connected internally; the package schematic shows no connection to the diode.
3 K passive Cathode of the single Zener diode, which is the reverse-biased terminal in Zener operation (Ptot 500 mW, Tj max 150 °C).

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

  • Symbol: BZX84B18-E3-08
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23
  • 3D model: SOT-23, generated on the KiCad land (body 1.3 x 2.9 mm, terminals on the pads, 1.01 mm tall, datasheet A, nominal). 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: bzx84b18-e3-08-etched.step / bzx84b18-e3-08-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); bzx84b18-e3-08.step / bzx84b18-e3-08.glb are the bare package body.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: Vishay Intertech datasheet (6 pp, sha256 d7d519b8048ee97c, retrieved 2026-11-13, tier: manufacturer)
  • Extractor: parts-factory 2.0.0 / extract_pins 0.3, primary claude-sonnet-5-5 (text+vision), consensus claude-opus-5-5 (agreed), guards: pin_guards 0.1: passed. Pins are checked against the footprint pad set and their cited datasheet pages before publish.
  • CAD: land: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0); 3D: generated from the datasheet's package dimensions (provenance.model_3d_generated).
