Product details
Overview
DDZ5V1B-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount precision Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 5.1 V, ±2.5% tolerance (4.94–5.20 V), 17 Ω dynamic impedance at 20 mA test current, and 1 µA maximum reverse leakage at 1.5 V. It operates in SOD123 package, supports 470 mW power dissipation at 25°C ambient, and is optimized for voltage reference and regulation in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DDZ5V1B-7 datasheet, DDZ5V1B-7 pinout, DDZ5V1B-7 application, or DDZ5V1B-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include tight VZ tolerance, low ZZT, stable temperature coefficient (≈−0.02%/°C near 5.1 V), and SOD123 footprint compatibility with automated PCB assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode functions as a two-terminal shunt voltage reference, maintaining stable output voltage across varying load currents by operating in reverse breakdown. Its low 17 Ω zener impedance at IZT = 20 mA ensures minimal voltage deviation under moderate current changes.
The device exhibits a near-zero temperature coefficient (~−0.02%/°C) at 5.1 V, minimizing drift over −65°C to +150°C operating range. Its SOD123 package provides thermal resistance of 266°C/W (Note 7 layout) and moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C5V1 | ±5% VZ tolerance (4.8–5.4 V), 60 Ω ZZT at 5 mA, SOT-23 package | Higher impedance and looser tolerance reduce accuracy in precision references | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs regulation stability; verify layout thermal relief for 350 mW derating |
| MMSZ5222BS | ±5% VZ, 17 Ω ZZT at 20 mA, but rated only to +150°C junction (not storage), SOD-123 | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and halogen-free certification | Acceptable for commercial-grade consumer devices; avoid in automotive or medical BOMs requiring full compliance traceability |
Compared with BZX84-C5V1 and MMSZ5222BS, DDZ5V1B-7 delivers tighter tolerance, lower leakage, and full automotive qualification-making it preferred for safety-critical voltage references where long-term stability and regulatory compliance are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse current specification for DDZ5V1B-7 at 1.5 V?
The maximum reverse current (IR) for DDZ5V1B-7 is 5 µA at VR = 1.5 V, per Electrical Characteristics Table on page 2 of DS30407 Rev. 21-2. This low leakage ensures minimal power loss in always-on reference circuits and supports ultra-low-quiescent-current designs.
Is DDZ5V1B-7 qualified for automotive use?
DDZ5V1B-7 is the commercial-grade version; the automotive-qualified variant is DDZ5V1BQ-7. The Q-suffix part is AEC-Q101 qualified, PPAP capable, and manufactured in IATF16949-certified facilities-required for functional safety applications in vehicle ECUs.
How does the SOD123 package affect thermal performance?
In the SOD123 package, DDZ5V1B-7 achieves RθJA = 266°C/W on a 1 in² FR-4 copper pad (Note 7). With 470 mW rated power at 25°C, this allows ~125°C junction rise at full load-requiring no additional heatsinking in typical low-power reference layouts.
What is the temperature coefficient behavior near 5.1 V?
Per Figure 16 in DS30407, DDZ5V1B exhibits a temperature coefficient of approximately −0.02%/°C at 5.1 V. This near-zero TC minimizes output voltage drift across −65°C to +150°C, making it ideal for applications demanding stable reference over wide ambient ranges.
