Product details
Overview
DDZ27ASF-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a precision 0.5W surface-mount Zener diode in SOD323F package, designed for voltage regulation and reference applications with tight zener voltage tolerance (24.26–25.52 V at 5 mA), low dynamic impedance (70 Ω max), and low reverse leakage (0.07 µA @ 23.0 V). It operates across –65°C to +150°C and is qualified for automotive-grade assembly per AEC-Q200 requirements.
For engineers reviewing the DDZ27ASF-7 datasheet, DDZ27ASF-7 pinout, DDZ27ASF-7 application, or DDZ27ASF-7 equivalent, this part serves as a stable, RoHS-compliant, halogen-free voltage reference in space-constrained analog power rails, sensor biasing circuits, and overvoltage protection stages where thermal stability and low leakage are critical.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a nominal zener voltage of 24.8 V (typical) at test current IZT = 5 mA, exhibiting a temperature coefficient of approximately +12 mV/°C near 27 V. Its low RθJA of 250°C/W enables reliable operation on standard FR-4 PCBs without heatsinking.
The device features a cathode band marking for polarity identification, matte tin–annealed copper alloy terminals for robust solderability, and moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020 - supporting reflow compatibility and automated placement without baking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 24.26–25.52 V @ IZT = 5 mA - defines precise regulation window for mid-range voltage references. |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW on FR-4 - supports continuous operation in compact power management blocks without derating below 70°C ambient. |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | ≤70 Ω @ 1 kHz - ensures minimal output voltage variation under dynamic load transients. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.07 µA @ VR = 23.0 V - enables ultra-low quiescent current in battery-backed or high-impedance sensing circuits. |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 250°C/W - allows direct thermal modeling on standard 10 mm × 10 mm copper pads without additional thermal vias. |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +150°C - supports deployment in under-hood automotive, industrial motor control, and outdoor power electronics. |
| Package | SOD323F - 2.5 mm × 1.7 mm footprint with 0.4 mm lead pitch, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and pick-and-place automation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD323F - molded plastic, UL 94V-0 rated, halogen- and antimony-free "Green" compound. Cathode identified by band marking on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener reference ground node | Connected to system ground or lower-potential rail; establishes reference return path during regulation. |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / regulated output node | Provides stable voltage output when reverse-biased; must be connected to supply rail requiring clamping or referencing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision voltage regulation | ±2.5% VZ tolerance (24.26–25.52 V) enables accurate analog reference without trimming. |
| Automated assembly compatibility | SOD323F package with matte tin–annealed leads meets IPC-J-STD-020 reflow profiles and MIL-STD-202 solderability. |
| Environmental compliance | Fully RoHS 3 compliant, halogen- and antimony-free (<900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb), supporting green manufacturing mandates. |
| High-temperature reliability | Rated for continuous operation up to +150°C junction temperature - suitable for engine control units and power converters. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Reference | Automotive Sensor Biasing |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Providing stable 24.8 V reference for isolated DC-DC feedback loops in programmable logic controller (PLC) power modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode functions as primary voltage reference for optocoupler-based error amplification stage. Use Value: Tight VZ tolerance and low ZZT minimize output voltage drift across line/load/temperature, improving regulation accuracy to ±0.5%. |
Use Scenario: Biasing pressure and temperature sensors in engine management systems operating at ambient temperatures up to 125°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supplies stable excitation voltage to bridge-type sensors while rejecting supply ripple. Use Value: Low IR (0.07 µA) prevents loading of high-impedance sensor outputs; wide TJ range ensures functionality during cold cranking and hot soak. |
| Overvoltage Protection Clamp | Portable Instrumentation Reference |
|
Use Scenario: Clamping transient surges on 24 V CAN bus power lines in vehicle infotainment head units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as shunt protector, diverting excess energy to ground when input exceeds 25.5 V. Use Value: 500 mW rating sustains short-duration transients; SOD323F footprint enables placement directly at connector entry point. |
Use Scenario: Generating precision reference for 16-bit ADCs in handheld multimeters and calibration equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides low-noise, thermally stable reference voltage independent of main supply fluctuations.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C27LT1G | 27 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 300 mW rating, SOT-23 package | Higher VZ tolerance and lower power handling reduce regulation accuracy in precision rails | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs tight voltage stability and thermal performance. |
| MMSZ5256ET1G | 27 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW rating, SOD-123 package | Larger SOD-123 footprint and higher RθJA (~350°C/W) limit high-temperature density | Choose only if legacy board layout prohibits SOD323F footprint or requires alternate tape/reel configuration. |
Compared with BZX84-C27LT1G and MMSZ5256ET1G, DDZ27ASF-7 delivers superior voltage accuracy (±2.5% vs. ±5%), lower thermal resistance (250°C/W vs. ≥350°C/W), and tighter leakage control - making it optimal for high-reliability, thermally constrained, and precision analog designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage (VR) that DDZ27ASF-7 can withstand before breakdown?
DDZ27ASF-7 begins controlled zener breakdown at its specified VZ range of 24.26–25.52 V when reverse-biased at IZT = 5 mA. Below this threshold - specifically at VR = 23.0 V - reverse leakage remains ≤0.07 µA. It is not rated for sustained operation above VZ without current limiting.
Does DDZ27ASF-7 meet AEC-Q200 stress testing requirements for passive components?
Yes - Diodes Incorporated qualifies the DDZ27ASF-7 family for automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 compliance. The device is manufactured in IATF 16949 certified facilities and supports PPAP documentation upon request, with full qualification data available in the DS31987 datasheet revision history.
Can DDZ27ASF-7 be used in parallel for higher power dissipation?
No - Zener diodes exhibit negative temperature coefficients at lower voltages but positive coefficients above ~5 V; DDZ27ASF-7 has a +12 mV/°C TC, causing thermal runaway if paralleled without individual ballast resistors. For >500 mW needs, use a single higher-rated device or active regulation.
What is the recommended pad layout for SOD323F mounting of DDZ27ASF-7?
Per Diodes' package outline DS31987 Rev. 23, the recommended SOD323F pad layout uses G = 1.28 mm, X = 0.71 mm, X1 = 2.70 mm, and Y = 0.403 mm (all in mm). This ensures coplanarity, solder joint integrity, and thermal transfer matching the 250°C/W RθJA specification on FR-4.
