Product details
Overview
DDZ9700T-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Zener diode with a nominal zener voltage of 13 V, ±4.5% tolerance (12.35–13.65 V), 150 mW power dissipation, and ultra-low reverse leakage current of 0.05 µA at 9.8 V. It uses an SOD523 package and serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the DDZ9700T-7 datasheet, DDZ9700T-7 pinout, DDZ9700T-7 application, or DDZ9700T-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy at IZT = 50 µA, thermal resistance (833 °C/W), cathode-band polarity marking, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly on FR-4 PCBs.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage regulation under controlled current conditions. Its sharp breakdown characteristic and low leakage support high-impedance biasing and sensing applications where minimal loading is critical.
The device exhibits a temperature coefficient of approximately +0.07 %/°C near 13 V (inferred from Fig. 17), enabling predictable drift behavior across –65°C to +150°C operating range. Its SOD523 footprint ensures minimal board area usage while maintaining thermal performance per JEDEC-standard pad layout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage | 13 V - Regulates at 13 V with 50 µA test current; actual range 12.35–13.65 V ensures design margin for precision references. |
| Power Dissipation | 150 mW - Maximum steady-state power at 25°C ambient; derates linearly above 25°C per Fig. 1. |
| Reverse Leakage Current | 0.05 µA @ 9.8 V - Enables use in microamp-level bias networks without significant error current. |
| Forward Voltage | 0.9 V @ 10 mA - Defines forward conduction threshold; relevant for polarity protection or dual-direction clamping designs. |
| Thermal Resistance | 833 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient value on FR-4 board; dictates temperature rise under load for reliability modeling. |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +150°C - Supports industrial and automotive under-hood environments with full parameter validity. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD523 - ultra-compact surface-mount plastic case (0.85 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.65 mm), cathode marked by band, matte tin-plated terminals, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry terminal in forward bias; connected to lower-potential node in Zener operation. | Used for forward conduction or as reference ground return in shunt regulator configurations. |
| Cathode | Current exit terminal in forward bias; higher-potential node during Zener breakdown. | Connected to regulated voltage rail; cathode band identifies this terminal for correct PCB orientation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584C13 | Same 13 V nominal rating but SOD-323 package (larger footprint); 200 mW power rating. | Higher power handling suits higher-current clamp scenarios; less suitable for ultra-dense layouts. | Select when thermal margin >150 mW is required and board space permits larger SOD-323. |
| MMSZ4687 | 13 V rating in SOD-123 package; 500 mW power; higher leakage (1 µA @ 9.8 V). | Greater power capacity trades off leakage performance-less ideal for low-current precision references. | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial controls where leakage tolerance exceeds 0.05 µA. |
Compared with BZX584C13 and MMSZ4687, DDZ9700T-7 delivers the tightest combination of ultra-low leakage, smallest footprint, and verified 13 V regulation accuracy-making it optimal for space-constrained, low-power analog systems requiring long-term stability.

FAQ
What is the maximum Zener test current for DDZ9700T-7?
The datasheet specifies a Zener test current (IZT) of 50 µA for parameter characterization. This is the standardized condition used to measure nominal voltage (13 V) and impedance; operation beyond this current requires thermal derating per Fig. 1 and must stay within the 150 mW absolute maximum power limit.
Does DDZ9700T-7 have a specified Zener impedance?
Yes-Fig. 12 shows typical dynamic impedance (ZZT) of ~35 Ω at 13 V and 50 µA. This value reflects AC impedance near the operating point and directly impacts regulation accuracy under varying load currents in shunt reference designs.
Can DDZ9700T-7 be used in bidirectional ESD protection?
No-it is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias regulation. For bidirectional ESD protection, purpose-built TVS diodes such as the D24Z3.3S (SOD-523) are required, as they specify symmetric clamping in both polarities and meet IEC 61000-4-2 standards.
Is the SOD523 package compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes-the device is rated for moisture sensitivity level 1 (per J-STD-020D) and supports IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020-compliant lead-free reflow profiles. Its matte tin annealed terminals ensure robust solderability without pre-baking, even after extended dry-pack storage.
