Product details

Overview

DDZ9690T-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 5.6 V (min 5.32 V, max 5.88 V), 150 mW power dissipation, and 2 µA maximum reverse leakage at 4 V reverse bias. It uses an SOD523 package, features sharp breakdown characteristics, and is used for precision voltage regulation and reference in low-power analog circuits.

For engineers reviewing the DDZ9690T-7 datasheet, DDZ9690T-7 pinout, DDZ9690T-7 application, or DDZ9690T-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance, low leakage at low VR, thermal resistance (833 °C/W), and compatibility with automated SMT assembly on space-constrained PCBs.

Technical Context

This Zener diode operates in reverse-biased breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load or supply conditions. Its sharp knee and low dynamic impedance (typ. <10 Ω at IZT = 5 mA) enable accurate voltage clamping and reference generation in feedback loops.

The device is rated for operation from −65 °C to +150 °C, with temperature coefficient of zener voltage near zero for 5.6 V parts (≈0.02 %/°C per Fig. 16), supporting stable performance across industrial temperature ranges without external compensation.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
BZX584C5V6LT1GSame 5.6 V nominal, SOD-523, but 200 mW rating and higher leakage (5 µA @ 4 V).Higher power margin supports brief surge events; less suitable for ultra-low-IQ designs.Select when transient energy absorption >150 mW is required and leakage budget allows ≥5 µA.
MMSZ5232BT1G5.6 V nominal, SOD-123 package (2.7 × 1.6 mm), 500 mW rating, 5 µA leakage @ 4 V.Larger footprint enables better thermal handling; not suitable for ultra-dense layouts.Choose when board space permits larger package and higher continuous power dissipation is needed.

Compared with BZX584C5V6LT1G and MMSZ5232BT1G, DDZ9690T-7 offers the lowest leakage and smallest footprint among 5.6 V Zeners, making it optimal for miniaturized, battery-sensitive applications where precision and size outweigh raw power handling.

FAQ

What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for DDZ9690T-7?

The DDZ9690T-7 exhibits sharp Zener breakdown starting at 5.32 V (minimum specified) and fully stabilizes at 5.6 V nominal. It is not rated for sustained reverse operation below this range; applying ≤4 V reverse bias yields only 2 µA leakage, per datasheet Table.

Can DDZ9690T-7 be used in place of a 5.1 V Zener like DDZ9689T?

No-DDZ9690T-7 has a nominal 5.6 V breakdown, while DDZ9689T is 5.1 V. Substituting alters regulation point by >10%, risking overvoltage or undervoltage in feedback or protection circuits. Use only when system tolerances accommodate the 0.5 V shift.

Is DDZ9690T-7 suitable for automotive applications?

While rated for −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature, DDZ9690T-7 is not AEC-Q200 qualified. It may be used in non-safety-critical automotive subsystems (e.g., infotainment power rails) only after full qualification per customer requirements and stress testing.

Does the SOD523 package support reflow soldering per J-STD-020?

Yes-the SOD523 package is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per J-STD-020D, meaning it can withstand unlimited floor life and standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260 °C) without baking or special handling.
