Product details
Overview
DDZ9702T-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 15 V (min 14.25 V, max 15.75 V), 150 mW power dissipation, 833 °C/W thermal resistance, 0.05 µA reverse leakage at 11.4 V, and SOD523 package. It provides precise voltage regulation in low-power biasing, reference, and protection circuits for industrial sensors and portable power management.
For engineers reviewing the DDZ9702T-7 datasheet, DDZ9702T-7 pinout, DDZ9702T-7 application, or DDZ9702T-7 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal behavior, SOD523 terminal mapping, and direct alternatives for voltage reference design and overvoltage clamp selection.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference diode, conducting in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under controlled current (IZT = 50 µA). Its sharp breakdown characteristic and low leakage support high-accuracy analog sensing and precision bias networks.
The SOD523 package enables automated placement on space-constrained PCBs while delivering thermal performance suitable for ambient temperatures from –65 °C to +150 °C. Its matte tin–annealed alloy 42 leadframe ensures reliable solderability per MIL-STD-202, Method 208.

Applications
| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | Portable Device Power Rail Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stabilizing excitation voltage for resistive bridge sensors in factory automation transmitters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt voltage reference providing fixed 15 V bias to Wheatstone bridge, compensating for supply drift. Use Value: Tight 14.25–15.75 V tolerance and <0.05 µA leakage ensure bridge output linearity remains within ±0.1% full-scale error. | Use Scenario: Protecting USB-C PD interface ICs from transient overvoltage during hot-plug events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance clamping diode limiting VBUS surge to ≤11.4 V before LDO input. Use Value: Fast response and sharp knee prevent latch-up in 3.3 V logic rails while drawing negligible standby current. |
| Programmable Logic Controller Analog Input | Medical Diagnostic Equipment Reference |
Use Scenario: Providing calibration reference for 16-bit ADC inputs measuring 4–20 mA loop signals. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision voltage reference in ratiometric measurement circuit, directly tied to ADC reference divider. Use Value: Temperature coefficient optimized near 15 V (Fig. 17) minimizes drift to <±0.05%/°C over –40 to +85 °C operating range. | Use Scenario: Generating stable bias for photodiode transimpedance amplifiers in pulse oximetry modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise DC reference establishing virtual ground and gain-setting node in high-gain analog front-end. Use Value: Ultra-low leakage avoids injection error in femtoamp-level photocurrent measurement paths. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584C15L | Same 15 V nominal, but SOD323 package (larger footprint, 200 mW rating) | Higher power handling suits higher-current references; less suitable for ultra-dense layouts | Select when thermal margin >50 mW is required or legacy SOD323 tooling is in use |
| MMSZ5245B-TP | 15 V nominal, SOD-123 package, 500 mW rating, higher leakage (1 µA @ 12 V) | Greater power capability but looser leakage spec limits use in nanoamp-sensitivity circuits | Prefer for cost-sensitive industrial controls where leakage <0.1 µA is not critical |
Compared with BZX584C15L and MMSZ5245B-TP, DDZ9702T-7 offers the smallest footprint (SOD523), lowest leakage (0.05 µA), and tightest voltage tolerance (±5%)-making it optimal for space- and precision-constrained applications like portable medical sensors and miniaturized PLC I/O modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage (VR) at which DDZ9702T-7 guarantees ≤0.05 µA leakage?
DDZ9702T-7 guarantees ≤0.05 µA reverse leakage current at VR = 11.4 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value is measured under standard conditions (TA = +25°C) using short-duration pulse testing to minimize self-heating effects.
Can DDZ9702T-7 be used in place of a 15 V Zener diode with higher power rating?
No-DDZ9702T-7 has a maximum power dissipation of 150 mW. Substituting it for higher-rated Zeners (e.g., 500 mW types) risks thermal failure if operating current exceeds ~10 mA. Derating per Fig. 1 is mandatory above 25°C ambient.
Does DDZ9702T-7 have a specified temperature coefficient (TCVZ)?
Yes-its typical temperature coefficient falls within ±0.05%/°C near 15 V, as shown in Figure 17 (DDZ9697T–DDZ9707T curve). This value is derived from characterization data and supports stable operation across –40°C to +85°C in precision reference designs.
Is the SOD523 package of DDZ9702T-7 compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes-the SOD523 package is rated for moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020D and supports standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak ≤260°C). Its matte tin–annealed terminals meet MIL-STD-202, Method 208 for solderability.
