Product details
Overview
DDZ10ASF-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 0.5W surface-mount precision Zener diode in SOD323F package, rated for 9.12–9.59V nominal zener voltage at 20mA test current, with 30Ω maximum zener impedance and 7.5µA reverse leakage at 8.66V. It delivers tight voltage tolerance (±2.5%), low thermal resistance (250°C/W), and is qualified for automotive-grade assembly per AEC-Q200 readiness requirements.
For engineers reviewing the DDZ10ASF-7 datasheet, DDZ10ASF-7 pinout, DDZ10ASF-7 application, or DDZ10ASF-7 equivalent, this part serves as a stable voltage reference in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and analog signal conditioning where ±2.5% VZ accuracy and <30Ω dynamic impedance are critical design constraints.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a specified test current of 20mA and exhibits a temperature coefficient of approximately +6.5mV/°C near 10V-enabling predictable drift compensation in mid-range voltage references. Its SOD323F package supports automated pick-and-place assembly and provides defined thermal performance on FR-4 PCBs with 10mm × 10mm copper pads.
The device maintains stable regulation under pulse conditions (<40ms measurement window) and features a cathode band marking for unambiguous polarity identification. Reverse leakage remains below 7.5µA up to 8.66V, ensuring minimal error contribution in high-impedance bias networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 9.12–9.59V @ IZT = 20mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback or clamping |
| Power Dissipation | 500mW on FR-4 PCB - sets maximum continuous DC or pulsed power handling capability |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | ≤30Ω @ f = 1kHz - ensures minimal AC voltage variation under dynamic load changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤7.5µA @ VR = 8.66V - limits error current in high-Z reference nodes |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 250°C/W - determines junction temperature rise above ambient under given power load |
| Operating Temperature | −65°C to +150°C - supports industrial and under-hood automotive environments |
| Package | SOD323F - 2-pin surface-mount outline with 0.25–0.35mm lead width and 2.3–2.7mm height |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C10LT1G | VZ = 9.8–10.2V @ 5mA; higher ZZT (≥50Ω); SOT-23 package | Lower power rating (350mW); less suitable for sustained 20mA operation | Select when board space permits larger SOT-23 and tighter VZ tolerance is secondary to cost |
| MMSZ5240B-7-F | VZ = 10.0–10.6V @ 20mA; ZZT ≤ 20Ω; SOD-123 package | Higher VZ center point; 10% wider tolerance (±5%); different thermal profile (RθJA ≈ 300°C/W) | Choose for legacy designs using SOD-123 footprint or where 10.3V nominal is acceptable |
Compared with BZX84-C10LT1G and MMSZ5240B-7-F, DDZ10ASF-7 offers superior VZ accuracy (±2.5% vs ±5%) and lower thermal resistance-critical for stable regulation in compact, thermally constrained layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous Zener current for DDZ10ASF-7 at +85°C ambient?
At +85°C ambient, the power derating curve (Figure 1) shows 0.4W maximum dissipation. With VZ ≈ 9.4V, the maximum continuous Zener current is approximately 42.5mA. This assumes mounting on FR-4 with 10mm × 10mm copper pads per datasheet Note 5; actual current must be reduced if board copper area is smaller.
Does DDZ10ASF-7 have AEC-Q200 qualification?
DDZ10ASF-7 is not individually AEC-Q200 certified, but it is manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities and supports PPAP documentation upon request. The datasheet states that automotive-grade change control-including AEC-Q200 qualification-is available for this part number when ordered through Diodes' automotive business channel with appropriate qualification testing.
How does the SOD323F package affect solder joint reliability compared to SOD-123?
SOD323F has narrower leads (0.25–0.35mm vs SOD-123's 0.45–0.55mm) and shorter lead length, reducing mechanical stress during thermal cycling. Its smaller footprint also lowers thermal mass, enabling more uniform reflow profiles-but requires tighter stencil aperture control to avoid bridging. IPC-7351B-compliant land patterns are validated for >99.5% first-pass yield in high-volume SMT lines.
Can DDZ10ASF-7 replace DDZ10BSF in an existing design?
Yes-DDZ10ASF-7 and DDZ10BSF share identical SOD323F packaging, thermal characteristics, and electrical specs except for VZ range: DDZ10ASF-7 is 9.12–9.59V while DDZ10BSF is 9.41–9.90V. If the original design targets the lower end of the 10V range and tolerates ±2.5% variation, substitution is electrically safe and requires no layout changes.
