Product details
Overview
DDZ9715T-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 36 V (min 34.2 V, max 37.8 V), 150 mW power dissipation, 50 µA maximum zener test current, 0.05 µA reverse leakage at 27.3 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 DDZ9715T-7 datasheet, DDZ9715T-7 pinout, DDZ9715T-7 application, or DDZ9715T-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±5%), temperature coefficient (~+0.08%/°C per Fig. 19), low leakage (<0.05 µA), sharp breakdown knee, and SOD523 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
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 breakdown characteristic and low dynamic impedance (≈120 Ω at IZ = 1 mA, per Fig. 15) support accurate voltage referencing in analog front-ends and feedback networks.
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of approximately +0.08%/°C near 36 V (Fig. 19), enabling predictable drift behavior in temperature-sensitive references. Thermal resistance is 833°C/W on FR-4 board, limiting continuous power handling above +70°C ambient without derating.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584-C36 | Same 36 V nominal, but SOD-323 package (1.7 × 1.3 mm); 200 mW rating; higher leakage (1 µA @ 27.3 V) | Larger footprint; better power handling but less suitable for ultra-dense layouts | Select when thermal margin >50 mW is required and board area permits larger case |
| MMSZ5245B | SOD-123 package (3.7 × 1.6 mm); 500 mW rating; looser tolerance (±5% still applies); same 36 V nominal | Not suitable for miniaturized designs; preferred where manual rework or high-reliability solder joints are prioritized | Choose for legacy designs using SOD-123 footprints or where higher surge energy absorption is needed |
Compared with BZX584-C36 and MMSZ5245B, DDZ9715T-7 delivers the smallest footprint (SOD523), lowest leakage (0.05 µA), and tightest thermal coupling for compact, low-power reference and clamping-making it optimal for next-gen space-constrained industrial and portable electronics.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage this Zener can withstand before breakdown?
The DDZ9715T-7 has a nominal zener voltage of 36 V with a guaranteed range of 34.2 V to 37.8 V at 50 µA test current. Breakdown occurs sharply within this band; operation below 34.2 V keeps the device in high-impedance reverse-blocking mode with ≤0.05 µA leakage at 27.3 V.
Can this part be used in place of a 33 V or 39 V Zener?
No-DDZ9715T-7 is specifically rated for 36 V nominal regulation. Substituting with 33 V (DDZ9714T) or 39 V (DDZ9716T) devices alters reference accuracy by ±3 V, potentially violating system voltage thresholds in feedback loops or protection circuits.
Is the SOD523 package compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes-the DDZ9715T-7 meets J-STD-020D Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 and uses matte tin annealed terminals. It supports standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C, 60 sec max) without preconditioning, provided recommended pad layout from Diodes' package outline guide is followed.
How does temperature affect its zener voltage stability?
Per Figure 19, DDZ9715T-7 exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of approximately +0.08%/°C near 36 V. This means VZ increases by ~28.8 mV per 10°C rise-predictable and usable for compensated references, but requires derating if used beyond 70°C ambient due to 150 mW power limit.
