BZX84C9V1 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended footprint for the BZX84C9V1?
  The recommended footprint for the BZX84C9V1 is a standard SOD123 package with a pad size of 0.8mm x 0.8mm and a spacing of 0.5mm between pads.
• Can I use the BZX84C9V1 in a high-temperature environment?
  The BZX84C9V1 is rated for operation up to 150°C, but it's recommended to derate the voltage and current ratings above 125°C to ensure reliable operation.
• How do I handle ESD protection when handling the BZX84C9V1?
  The BZX84C9V1 has an internal ESD protection diode, but it's still recommended to follow standard ESD handling procedures, such as using an ESD wrist strap or mat, to prevent damage to the device.
• Can I use the BZX84C9V1 in a switching power supply?
  The BZX84C9V1 is a zener diode, not a switching diode, and is not suitable for use in switching power supplies. It's intended for voltage regulation and stabilization applications.
• What is the typical leakage current of the BZX84C9V1?
  The typical leakage current of the BZX84C9V1 is less than 1μA at 25°C, but this can vary depending on the operating conditions and temperature.
