BZX85B33-TR - Vishay

BZX85B33-TR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for the BZX85B33-TR?
  The recommended land pattern for the BZX85B33-TR can be found in the Vishay Intertechnologies' application note AN483, which provides guidelines for surface-mount assembly of diodes and rectifiers.
• How do I handle the BZX85B33-TR during soldering to prevent damage?
  To prevent damage during soldering, it is recommended to follow the soldering profile recommended by Vishay Intertechnologies, which is typically a peak temperature of 260°C for 10 seconds. Additionally, the device should be handled by the body or the leads, avoiding touching the glass diode to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
• What is the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the BZX85B33-TR?
  The equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the BZX85B33-TR is not explicitly stated in the datasheet, but it can be estimated to be around 1-2 ohms based on the device's internal construction and the typical ESR values of similar devices.
• Can the BZX85B33-TR be used in high-frequency applications?
  The BZX85B33-TR is a general-purpose zener diode, and its frequency response is not optimized for high-frequency applications. While it can be used in some high-frequency applications, its performance may not be optimal, and a more specialized high-frequency zener diode may be required for high-frequency applications above 100 kHz.
• What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of the BZX85B33-TR?
  The moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of the BZX85B33-TR is MSL1, which means it can be exposed to a maximum of 30°C/85% relative humidity for 168 hours without being damaged.
