Product details
Overview
DDZ36CSF-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a 0.5W surface-mount precision Zener diode in SOD323F package, delivering tightly regulated 33.4–35.13V zener voltage at 5mA test current, with 75Ω max zener impedance and ±0.07µA reverse leakage at 31.7V, used for voltage reference and overvoltage protection in power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the DDZ36CSF-7 datasheet, DDZ36CSF-7 pinout, DDZ36CSF-7 application, or DDZ36CSF-7 equivalent, this part supports precision regulation in compact DC-DC converters, industrial sensor signal conditioning, and automotive body control module voltage monitoring where tight VZ tolerance and low thermal resistance (250°C/W) are critical.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load and temperature conditions. Its 5mA zener test current and 75Ω dynamic impedance ensure minimal voltage deviation during transient load changes.
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient above ~5.6V, typical for higher-voltage Zeners, and is characterized for operation from –65°C to +150°C ambient, with power derating beginning at +75°C per the published curve.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 33.4–35.13V @ IZT = 5mA - defines precise regulation window for feedback sensing |
| Max Zener Impedance | 75Ω @ f = 1kHz - ensures <±0.375V output shift under ±28mA current step |
| Reverse Leakage Current | ≤0.07µA @ VR = 31.7V - minimizes quiescent error in high-impedance reference paths |
| Power Dissipation | 500mW on FR-4 PCB - supports continuous operation up to 75°C ambient before derating |
| Thermal Resistance | 250°C/W junction-to-ambient - enables thermal design with standard 10mm×10mm copper pad |
| Package | SOD323F - 2.5mm × 1.7mm footprint compatible with automated pick-and-place and reflow |
| Forward Voltage | 0.9V @ IF = 10mA - relevant for polarity-check circuits and reverse-protection configurations |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD323F - ultra-compact surface-mount plastic package with cathode band marking; dimensions: 2.50mm (He) × 1.70mm (E) × 0.675mm (A), weight ≈ 0.004g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C36LT1G | 36V nominal (34.2–37.8V), 300mW rating, SOT-23 package, 100Ω ZZT | Higher power dissipation margin required; larger footprint incompatible with ultra-dense layouts | Select when board space allows SOT-23 and lower cost is prioritized over tight VZ tolerance |
| MMSZ5245B-TP | 36V nominal (34.2–37.8V), 500mW, SOD-123 package, 100Ω ZZT, ±5% tolerance | Looser voltage tolerance increases system calibration burden; 300°C/W RθJA demands larger copper area | Choose for legacy designs using SOD-123 footprints or where ±5% VZ is acceptable |
Compared with BZX84-C36LT1G and MMSZ5245B-TP, DDZ36CSF-7 delivers tighter voltage tolerance (±2.6% vs. ±5%), lower dynamic impedance (75Ω vs. ≥100Ω), and superior thermal performance (250°C/W vs. ≥300°C/W), making it optimal for high-accuracy, space-constrained applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for DDZ36CSF-7 on a standard FR-4 PCB?
The DDZ36CSF-7 is rated for 500mW maximum power dissipation when mounted on an FR-4 PCB with a 10mm × 10mm copper pad and board size of 35mm × 25mm. Derating begins linearly above +75°C ambient, reaching zero power at +150°C per the published derating curve.
How does the zener voltage tolerance affect circuit accuracy in a feedback loop?
With a specified VZ range of 33.4–35.13V at 5mA, the ±2.6% tolerance directly impacts output voltage accuracy in shunt-regulated feedback networks. For a typical 36V output, this translates to ±0.94V variation, which may require gain trimming in high-precision systems but is sufficient for most industrial 3.3V/5V rail monitors.
Is DDZ36CSF-7 qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q101?
No - while Diodes Incorporated offers AEC-Q101-qualified Zeners in other families (e.g., BZT52-B series), the DDZ36CSF-7 is not specifically qualified to AEC-Q101. It is rated for –65°C to +150°C operation and RoHS 3 compliant, but automotive use requires explicit qualification documentation and PPAP support, which must be confirmed with Diodes' automotive team.
Can DDZ36CSF-7 be used in place of a 36V Zener with looser tolerance in existing designs?
Yes - the DDZ36CSF-7 shares identical SOD323F package, pinout, and power rating with other DDZ36xSF variants, and its 33.4–35.13V range falls within the broader 36V nominal specification. Its lower impedance (75Ω vs. 90Ω for DDZ36DSF) improves regulation under dynamic loads, making it a functional upgrade in most non-automotive applications.
