Product details

Overview

DDZ9691T-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 6.2 V, tolerance ±5% (5.89–6.51 V), maximum power dissipation 150 mW, and reverse leakage current ≤1 µA at 5 V. It uses SOD523 package and serves as precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog signal conditioning circuits.

For engineers reviewing the DDZ9691T-7 datasheet, DDZ9691T-7 pinout, DDZ9691T-7 application, or DDZ9691T-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy, low leakage at bias voltages below breakdown, thermal resistance (833 °C/W), and compatibility with automated SMT assembly on space-constrained PCBs.

Technical Context

This device operates in reverse-biased breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load currents. Its sharp breakdown knee and low dynamic impedance (typ. <40 Ω at IZ = 5 mA) support tight regulation in feedback networks and reference dividers.

Designed for ambient temperatures from –65 °C to +150 °C, it exhibits a temperature coefficient of approximately +0.03 %/°C near 6.2 V, enabling predictable drift behavior in industrial sensor interfaces and power supply monitoring circuits.

Applications

Industrial Sensor Signal ConditioningUSB Port Overvoltage Protection

Use Scenario: Stabilizing reference voltage for bridge sensor amplifiers in pressure transducers operating from 3.3 V or 5 V rails.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt voltage reference providing stable 6.2 V bias to instrumentation amplifier input stage.

Use Value: Low 1 µA leakage prevents loading of high-impedance Wheatstone bridge outputs; sharp knee avoids false triggering during transient surges.

Use Scenario: Clamping induced transients on USB D+ and D− lines during hot-plug events or ESD discharge.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional transient voltage suppressor placed between data line and ground.

Use Value: 0.9 V forward drop enables fast clamping in both directions; SOD523 size allows placement within 2 mm of connector for effective high-frequency suppression.

Low-Power Microcontroller Reset CircuitAutomotive Body Control Module Voltage Monitor

Use Scenario: Generating clean reset pulse when main 5 V supply drops below 4.75 V during brown-out conditions.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener-based comparator reference in discrete reset generator circuit.

Use Value: Tight 5.89–6.51 V range ensures consistent reset threshold across temperature; low leakage maintains capacitor hold-up time.

Use Scenario: Monitoring 12 V battery rail for undervoltage (≤9 V) and overvoltage (≥15 V) faults in BCM power management.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision clamp element in resistor-divider feedback network feeding supervisor IC.

Use Value: Specified TC (~+0.03 %/°C) allows accurate fault thresholds across –40 °C to +125 °C ambient; 150 mW rating supports sustained clamp duty in load-dump scenarios.

Equivalent & Alternatives

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

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
BZX584C6V2Same 6.2 V nominal, but SOD-323 package (larger footprint); 200 mW power ratingHigher power handling suits higher-current clamp loads; less suitable for ultra-dense layoutsSelect if board space permits and >150 mW dissipation is required
MMSZ46876.2 V nominal, SOD-123 package; 500 mW rating; ±5% tolerance; higher leakage (≤5 µA @ 5 V)Greater thermal margin for intermittent surge clamping; higher leakage may affect precision referencesSelect for robustness in non-critical voltage sensing where leakage is not limiting

Compared with BZX584C6V2 and MMSZ4687, DDZ9691T-7 offers the smallest footprint and lowest leakage, making it optimal for space-constrained, low-power precision applications-though its 150 mW limit requires careful thermal design in sustained clamp roles.

FAQ

What is the maximum zener test current (IZT) for DDZ9691T-7?

The datasheet specifies IZT = 5 mA for DDZ9691T-7. This is the standardized test current used to measure nominal zener voltage (6.2 V) and dynamic impedance. Operation beyond this current requires verification against the power derating curve (Fig. 1), especially above 25 °C ambient.

Does DDZ9691T-7 have a specified zener impedance (ZZT)?

Yes-Figure 10 shows typical zener impedance for DDZ9691T-7 (within the DDZ9689T–DDZ9692T group) as ~35 Ω at 1 mA and ~25 Ω at 5 mA. This low dynamic impedance supports stable regulation under small-signal load variations in reference applications.

Can DDZ9691T-7 be used in bidirectional ESD protection?

No-it is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias regulation. For bidirectional ESD protection, a dedicated TVS diode (e.g., D3V3F4U2P) or back-to-back Zener pair is required. Forward conduction (0.9 V @ 10 mA) is not rated for ESD pulse handling.

Is the SOD523 package of DDZ9691T-7 compatible with reflow profiles for lead-free soldering?

Yes-the device is fully RoHS-compliant and qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles (J-STD-020D Level 1). Its matte tin finish and alloy 42 leadframe ensure reliable wetting and joint formation under peak temperatures up to 260 °C, provided recommended pad layout and thermal relief are followed.
