Product details
Overview
D3Z3V3BF-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a precision 3.32–3.53 V, 400 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOD323F package, optimized for voltage regulation and reference applications in space-constrained power management circuits, with ±1% typical Zener tolerance, 95 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA, and -1.9 mV/°C temperature coefficient.
For engineers reviewing the D3Z3V3BF-7 datasheet, D3Z3V3BF-7 pinout, D3Z3V3BF-7 application, or D3Z3V3BF-7 equivalent, this part supports low-power analog reference design, overvoltage clamping in USB-C PD interfaces, and precision biasing in sensor signal conditioning stages where tight voltage stability and thermal predictability are required.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a nominal test current of 5 mA, delivering stable regulation across -65°C to +150°C ambient range. Its 95 Ω Zener impedance at IZT and 145 pF junction capacitance support fast transient response in feedback loops and low-noise reference generation.
The device uses a planar epitaxial construction with matte tin–annealed copper alloy leadframe, enabling reliable solderability per MIL-STD-202 and compatibility with automated reflow processes on FR-4 PCBs. Its SOD323F package provides 312.5°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance under standard mounting conditions.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B3V3,115 (Nexperia) | 3.3 V nominal, ±2% tolerance, 300 mW PD, 150 Ω ZZT | Higher impedance and wider tolerance reduce regulation accuracy in precision analog paths | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs 0.2% VZ tolerance and 50 Ω ZZT advantage |
| MMSZ3V3T1G (ON Semiconductor) | 3.3 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 350 mW PD, 90 Ω ZZT, SOD-123 package | Larger SOD-123 footprint increases board area; looser tolerance requires post-calibration | Choose for legacy SOD-123 layout reuse where 145 pF CJ and -1.9 mV/°C αVZ are non-critical |
Compared with BZX384-B3V3 and MMSZ3V3T1G, D3Z3V3BF-7 delivers tighter voltage control, lower thermal resistance, and superior temperature stability-making it preferred for new designs demanding minimal calibration and high long-term reference integrity.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous Zener current for D3Z3V3BF-7 at 25°C?
The device is rated for 400 mW power dissipation at 25°C ambient. With a nominal Zener voltage of 3.43 V (midpoint of 3.32–3.53 V), the maximum continuous Zener current is approximately 117 mA (400 mW ÷ 3.43 V). However, derating begins above 25°C per Figure 1, limiting usable current in elevated ambient conditions.
Does D3Z3V3BF-7 meet AEC-Q200 stress testing requirements?
D3Z3V3BF-7 is manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities and supports PPAP documentation. While not pre-qualified to AEC-Q200, Diodes offers automotive-grade variants (e.g., D3Z3V3BFQ-7) with full AEC-Q200 qualification. Standard D3Z3V3BF-7 is suitable for non-safety-critical automotive cabin applications where customer validation is performed.
How does the -1.9 mV/°C temperature coefficient impact circuit accuracy over temperature?
Over a 100°C span (e.g., -40°C to +60°C), the Zener voltage shifts by approximately -190 mV. For a 3.43 V nominal, that represents -5.5% drift. In practice, this is mitigated by using the diode in low-current, low-self-heating configurations or pairing it with complementary tempcos elsewhere in the signal chain.
Can D3Z3V3BF-7 be used in place of a 3.3 V LDO for low-current applications?
Yes-as a shunt regulator, it can maintain ~3.3 V across loads drawing up to ~10 mA when supplied with a series resistor and stable input. Unlike an LDO, it lacks active pass elements, so output impedance equals ZZT (95 Ω), making it unsuitable for dynamic loads >1 mA. It excels in static biasing, not powering digital ICs.
