Product details
Overview
MM3Z3V9C from onsemi is a 3.9 V ±5% Zener diode in SOD−323FL package, rated for 200 mW power dissipation, with 84 Ω zener impedance at 5 mA test current and 2.7 µA reverse leakage at 1 V reverse voltage. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MM3Z3V9C datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its tight ±5% VZ tolerance, low thermal resistance (595 °C/W), SOD−323FL footprint compatibility, and verified performance across −65 °C to +150 °C operating range.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage regulator diode, conducting in reverse breakdown at nominal 3.9 V with specified dynamic impedance (84 Ω) measured at IZT = 5 mA. Its forward voltage is ≤1.0 V at 10 mA, confirming standard silicon PN junction behavior.
The MM3Z3V9C is designed for stable DC voltage referencing in space-constrained PCB layouts, leveraging its thin SOD−323FL package and matte tin finish. Junction temperature must not exceed 150 °C, and derating applies above 25 °C ambient per RJA = 595 °C/W.

| PD | 200 mW - sets maximum continuous power handling without heatsinking |
| IR @ VR | 2.7 µA max at 1 V reverse - indicates low leakage for high-impedance reference nodes |
| TJ max | 150 °C - constrains thermal design margin in enclosed or high-ambient environments |
| RJA | 595 °C/W - requires careful PCB copper area planning for sustained power operation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B3V9 | Same 3.9 V ±5%, but SOD-323 package (not FL variant); RJA = 625 °C/W | Marginally higher thermal resistance; identical electrical specs under 5 mA IZT | Select if legacy SOD-323 land pattern is fixed and 30 °C/W thermal penalty is acceptable |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for MM3Z3V9C?
The MM3Z3V9C has a maximum power dissipation of 200 mW at 25 °C ambient temperature. Derating is required above this temperature per its thermal resistance of 595 °C/W. At 75 °C ambient, the allowable power drops to approximately 117 mW to maintain junction temperature ≤150 °C. This value is critical when sizing the series current-limiting resistor in shunt regulator configurations.
Does MM3Z3V9C meet RoHS and lead-free requirements?
Yes, the MM3Z3V9C is Pb-free and fully compliant with the EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. It features a matte tin (Sn) finish and is manufactured under onsemi's qualified lead-free process. The device carries no exemptions and satisfies IPC-J-STD-609A Class 1 marking requirements for homogeneous material composition.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for MM3Z3V9C?
The MM3Z3V9C exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 2.7 µA at VR = 1 V, measured at 25 °C. This low leakage supports high-impedance reference applications such as precision ADC biasing or microcontroller wake-up threshold detection where minimal current draw is essential for battery longevity.
Can MM3Z3V9C be used in place of MM3Z3V6C or MM3Z4V3C?
No - MM3Z3V9C is not a functional substitute for MM3Z3V6C (3.6 V) or MM3Z4V3C (4.3 V), as its nominal Zener voltage (3.9 V) falls outside their respective tolerance bands. Substitution would cause incorrect biasing or regulation. Each part in the MM3Z series is uniquely marked (Z5 for MM3Z3V9C) and calibrated to its specific VZ bin.
What is the Zener impedance (ZZT) of MM3Z3V9C and why does it matter?
The MM3Z3V9C has a maximum Zener impedance (ZZT) of 84 Ω at IZT = 5 mA. This parameter quantifies how much the output voltage changes with load current variation - lower ZZT yields tighter regulation. In practice, it directly impacts line and load regulation accuracy in shunt reference designs, especially under dynamic current demands.
