BZX585-B4V3

Nexperia · Zener Diodes · SOD-523(SC-79)

BZX585-B4V3 from Nexperia, in a SOD-523(SC-79). 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 K passive Cathode, indicated by the marking bar on the package; the cathode tab is the reference for the stated total power dissipation of 300 mW (device mounted on FR4 PCB with about 35 mm² Cu at the cathode tab) and for the thermal resistance junction-to-solder-point (65 K/W max).
2 A passive Anode of the Zener diode; the datasheet gives no pin-specific limit for this terminal, so the device ratings apply (for example forward current IF max 200 mA and Tj −65 °C to 150 °C).
