Product details
Overview
M3Z8V2C RRG from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 200 mW surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 8.2 V (±5%), dynamic impedance of 10 Ω at 5 mA test current, and maximum leakage current of 0.5 µA at 6 V reverse bias; used for low-voltage stabilization in DC/DC converters and lighting circuits.
For engineers reviewing the M3Z8V2C RRG datasheet, M3Z8V2C RRG pinout, M3Z8V2C RRG application, or M3Z8V2C RRG equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance, power dissipation limit, junction temperature range, and SOD-323F package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The M3Z8V2C RRG operates as a single-die, cathode-banded Zener diode optimized for precision voltage regulation in low-power analog and power management circuits. Its design supports stable reverse-biased operation up to 150°C junction temperature with moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020.
It delivers 8.2 V regulation with ±5% tolerance, 10 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA, and sub-µA leakage (0.5 µA max at 6 V), enabling reliable reference generation in battery-powered and thermally constrained applications without external biasing circuitry.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B8V2,215 (Nexperia) | Same 8.2 V ±5%, 200 mW rating, but SOD-323 package (not SOD-323F); slightly higher ZZK (150 Ω vs. 50 Ω) | Compatible in layout if pad stack tolerates minor footprint variance; less suitable for ultra-low-noise references | Select when sourcing flexibility is prioritized over guaranteed SOD-323F mechanical compliance |
| MMBZ5231BS-7-F (Diodes Inc.) | 8.2 V ±5%, 300 mW rating, SOT-23 package; higher power but larger footprint and different thermal resistance | Preferred for higher-current regulation; requires PCB redesign due to 3-pin SOT-23 vs. 2-pin SOD-323F | Choose only if thermal margin exceeds 200 mW requirement and board space allows SOT-23 placement |
Compared with BZX384-B8V2,215 and MMBZ5231BS-7-F, the M3Z8V2C RRG offers identical voltage specification and power rating in the industry-standard SOD-323F package with verified moisture level 1 handling-making it optimal for high-volume, reflow-critical applications where footprint and process compatibility are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range specified for M3Z8V2C RRG?
The M3Z8V2C RRG has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 7.79 V (minimum) to 8.61 V (maximum) at 5 mA test current and 25°C ambient, corresponding to a nominal 8.2 V with ±5% tolerance. This range is validated per Taiwan Semiconductor's B2008 datasheet revision and applies across the full operating temperature range.
Does M3Z8V2C RRG support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, M3Z8V2C RRG features matte tin-plated terminals qualified per J-STD-002 for lead-free solderability and complies with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1-meaning it can be placed directly onto PCBs and subjected to standard Pb-free reflow profiles (e.g., peak 260°C) without baking or special handling.
What is the maximum leakage current for M3Z8V2C RRG and at what voltage is it measured?
The maximum leakage current for M3Z8V2C RRG is 0.5 µA, measured at a reverse voltage (VR) of 6 V and ambient temperature of 25°C. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table of the official datasheet and remains valid up to 100°C per Fig.6 leakage curves.
Can M3Z8V2C RRG be used in place of a 3-pin Zener reference IC like TL431?
No-M3Z8V2C RRG is a two-terminal passive Zener diode and cannot replace the active three-terminal TL431, which provides adjustable reference, high-impedance input, and sink-current output. However, M3Z8V2C RRG serves as a simpler, lower-cost fixed-voltage clamp or reference where programmability and precision beyond ±5% are not required.
Is the SOD-323F package of M3Z8V2C RRG compatible with automated pick-and-place equipment?
Yes, the SOD-323F package of M3Z8V2C RRG is fully compatible with standard high-speed pick-and-place machines. Its 1.7 mm × 1.25 mm body, defined cathode band, and JEDEC-compliant tape-and-reel packaging (3,000 pcs per 7-inch reel, ordering code M3Z8V2C RRG) ensure reliable feeding and placement accuracy in SMT lines.
