Product details
Overview
1PMT5921BT1 from onsemi is a 3.2 W surface-mount Zener diode in the POWERMITE® (DO−216AA) package, with nominal Zener voltage 6.8 V at 55.1 mA test current, maximum dynamic impedance 2.5 Ω at IZT, and reverse leakage ≤5.0 µA at 5.2 V. It delivers low-profile thermal performance (1.1 mm height, 23°C/W junction-to-cathode thermal resistance) for voltage regulation in space-constrained portable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5921BT1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 6.8 V ±5% tolerance, 3.2 W DC power dissipation at cathode temperature of 75°C, Class 3 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), and Pb-free tape-and-reel packaging (12,000 units/reel).
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator, maintaining stable output voltage across varying load currents via controlled reverse-biased Zener breakdown. Its thermal design centers on the cathode tab as primary heat path (RJcathode = 23°C/W), enabling high power density in minimal PCB area.
The POWERMITE package integrates full metallic bottom and locking tabs to ensure mechanical stability and solder joint reliability during reflow. Electrical behavior is defined by two critical operating points: IZT = 55.1 mA (for VZ specification) and IZK = 1.0 mA (for low-current regulation), with ZZK = 200 Ω confirming usable regulation down to microampere-level currents.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5231BS-7-F | 250 mW SOT-23 device; VZ = 6.2 V ±5%, ZZT = 17 Ω @ 20 mA | Limited to low-power biasing; unsuitable for >500 mW transient suppression | Select when board space permits SOT-23 and power demand is <0.3 W |
| 1N4734A | 1 W DO-41 through-hole device; VZ = 5.6 V ±5%, ZZT = 10 Ω @ 45 mA | Requires through-hole assembly; no thermal tab for PCB heatsinking | Select only for legacy through-hole designs where rework to SMT is not feasible |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1PMT5921BT1?
The 1PMT5921BT1 has a Zener voltage range of 6.46 V to 7.14 V at IZT = 55.1 mA, corresponding to a ±5% tolerance around the nominal 6.8 V rating. This tolerance is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range of −55°C to +150°C and is measured under thermal equilibrium at 25°C ambient per the official onsemi datasheet.
Can the 1PMT5921BT1 be used in Pb-free reflow processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5921BT1 is compatible with Pb-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020. Its maximum soldering temperature is rated at 260°C for 10 seconds, matching standard lead-free process profiles. The device is available in both standard and Pb-free versions ("G" suffix), and the POWERMITE package's full metallic bottom ensures reliable wetting and void-free joints.
How does the thermal performance of the 1PMT5921BT1 compare to SMA packages?
The 1PMT5921BT1 delivers equivalent thermal performance to SMA packages despite being 50% smaller in footprint area, due to its optimized POWERMITE package with integral heat sink tabs and low RJcathode of 23°C/W. This enables 3.2 W power dissipation at cathode temperature of 75°C-matching SMA capability while reducing PCB real estate and height.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for the 1PMT5921BT1?
The maximum reverse leakage current for the 1PMT5921BT1 is 5.0 µA at VR = 5.2 V and TL = 25°C. This low leakage ensures minimal quiescent current draw in battery-powered applications and preserves accuracy in high-impedance reference circuits where even nanoampere-level currents could cause significant error.
Is the 1PMT5921BT1 suitable for ESD protection in high-speed interfaces?
The 1PMT5921BT1 is rated for Class 3 ESD immunity (>16 kV HBM), making it suitable for board-level ESD clamping in moderate-speed interfaces like USB-C CC lines or I²C buses. However, its capacitance (~10 pF at 0 V bias) and 2.5 Ω ZZT limit use in >100 MHz signal paths; for RF or high-speed data lines, dedicated low-capacitance TVS diodes are recommended instead of the 1PMT5921BT1.
