# BZX84C5V6W-7-F

**Diodes Incorporated** · Zener Diodes · SOT-323

BZX84C5V6W-7-F from Diodes Incorporated, in a SOT-323. 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 (bottom-left pin in the device schematic); the datasheet gives VF = 0.9 V at IF = 10 mA and a nominal Zener voltage of 5.6 V for the BZX84C5V6W. |
| 2 | NC | unconnected | Not connected internally; the device schematic shows this bottom-right pin with no connection to the diode. |
| 3 | K | passive | Cathode of the single Zener diode (top pin in the device schematic); the datasheet gives a 5.6 V nominal Zener voltage (5.2 V to 6.0 V) at IZT = 5 mA and 200 mW maximum power dissipation. |

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

- Symbol: `BZX84C5V6W-7-F`
- Footprint: `Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-323_SC-70`
- 3D model: SOT-323, generated on the KiCad land (body 1.25 x 2.1 mm, terminals on the pads, 0.95 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: `bzx84c5v6w-7-f-etched.step` / `bzx84c5v6w-7-f-etched.glb` carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable `Adom.LaserEtch` group (Fusion-ready); `bzx84c5v6w-7-f.step` / `bzx84c5v6w-7-f.glb` are the bare package body.
