BZV85-C51

Nexperia · Zener Diodes · DO-41

BZV85-C51 from Nexperia, in a DO-41. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 cathode passive Cathode, identified by the marking band on the package (the marking band indicates the cathode); forward current is limited to max. 500 mA per the limiting values.
2 anode passive Anode, the lead opposite the marking band; the device is a zener/voltage regulator diode with a maximum forward current of 500 mA.
