Zener Diodes

18 V ZenerSOD-323300 mWAEC-Q101AutomotiveRoHS

BZT52C18SQ is an 18 V, 300 mW SOD-323 Zener diode intended for general regulation and automotive electronics. The Q suffix identifies the AEC-Q101-qualified version.

Best for

  • Low-power 18 V voltage-reference and regulation functions
  • Automotive electronics requiring an AEC-Q101-qualified Zener option
  • Compact SOD-323 board designs

Avoid if

  • Applications requiring a tightly regulated 18 V output across current and temperature
  • Circuits that exceed the derated 300 mW dissipation limit
  • High-energy surge protection without separate surge verification

Check before use

  • Confirm operating Zener current around the specified 5 mA test point
  • Calculate dissipation using worst-case input voltage and load conditions
  • Verify reverse leakage at the circuit operating voltage
  • Observe the cathode line package marking
