Product details
Overview
MM3Z22VB from onsemi is a 22 V ±2% Zener diode in SOD−323FL package, rated for 200 mW power dissipation, with 51 Ω typical Zener impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.045 µA maximum reverse leakage at 15.4 V. It provides precision voltage regulation in low-power analog reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MM3Z22VB datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal behavior, package dimensions, and real-world use cases for stable voltage clamping and reference design.
Technical Context
The MM3Z22VB operates as a two-terminal silicon Zener diode optimized for stable reverse-biased breakdown at 22 V nominal, with tight ±2% tolerance (B-series). Its 595 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance reflects its ultra-small SOD−323FL footprint and low-power capability.
It is characterized at 25 °C with IZT = 5 mA, where VZ = 21.56–22.44 V and ZZT = 51 Ω max. Reverse leakage IR is specified at VR = 15.4 V (70% of VZ), limiting error in high-impedance bias networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 21.56 V min to 22.44 V max at 5 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for protection or reference |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 200 mW - sets maximum continuous power handling in surface-mount layout |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 51 Ω max at 5 mA - determines regulation stability under varying load current |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.045 µA max at 15.4 V - ensures minimal error in high-Z voltage divider or bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance (RJA) | 595 °C/W - indicates sensitivity to PCB copper area and ambient temperature rise |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.0 V max at 10 mA - defines conduction drop when used in forward-biased ESD path |
Pinout & Package

Use Value: 51 Ω ZZT maintains regulation accuracy despite load transients; 150 °C max TJ supports under-dash thermal environment. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B22 | Same 22 V ±2%, but in SOD-323 package (not FL variant); RJA = 625 °C/W | Slightly higher thermal resistance limits power derating at elevated ambient | Acceptable where board space allows marginally larger footprint and thermal budget permits |
| MMSZ5247B | 22 V ±5% tolerance; SOD-123 package; PD = 500 mW; ZZT = 30 Ω max at 20 mA | Looser tolerance trades accuracy for higher power handling and lower dynamic impedance | Preferred when higher surge energy absorption is required and ±5% VZ is acceptable |
Compared with BZX384-B22 and MMSZ5247B, the MM3Z22VB offers tighter voltage tolerance in the smallest standardized Zener footprint, making it optimal for space-constrained, precision-biased analog circuits where thermal management is controlled.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of MM3Z22VB?
The MM3Z22VB has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±2% at 25 °C, with a specified range of 21.56 V to 22.44 V at 5 mA test current. This tight tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official onsemi datasheet Rev. 3 (August 2023) and applies specifically to the MM3Z22VB marking code "PZ". The MM3Z22VB is part of the B-series, which guarantees this tolerance across production lots.
What package type does MM3Z22VB use?
The MM3Z22VB uses the SOD−323FL package (Case 477AB), a Pb-free, matte tin–plated, ultra-thin surface-mount outline measuring 1.7 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.95 mm. This is explicitly stated in the Ordering Information section and Mechanical Case Outline drawing of the onsemi datasheet. The "FL" suffix denotes the flattened lead version optimized for coplanarity and automated assembly.
What is the maximum power dissipation for MM3Z22VB?
The MM3Z22VB has a maximum power dissipation (PD) of 200 mW at TA = 25 °C, as listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Derating is required above 25 °C at 0.337 mW/°C (calculated from RJA = 595 °C/W), and operation must remain within the 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit. This value is fixed for the SOD−323FL package and applies to the MM3Z22VB without exception.
How does MM3Z22VB perform at elevated temperatures?
The MM3Z22VB maintains stable Zener voltage across −25 °C to +125 °C, with typical VZ drift less than ±0.1 V over that range, as shown in Figure 6 of the onsemi datasheet. Its 150 °C maximum junction temperature and 595 °C/W thermal resistance define usable ambient limits based on PCB copper area. The MM3Z22VB's performance is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108, and no parameter degradation occurs below TJ = 150 °C.
Is MM3Z22VB suitable for ESD protection?
The MM3Z22VB can be used for low-energy ESD clamping due to its fast response and 1.0 V forward voltage at 10 mA, but it is not rated to IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4. Its 200 mW rating supports only brief transients; for robust ESD protection, dedicated TVS diodes like NUP4105MR6T1G are recommended. The MM3Z22VB datasheet does not specify ESD capability, and its primary function remains precision voltage regulation.
