Product details
Overview
MM3Z4V3ST1 from onsemi is a 200 mW, 4.3 V nominal Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD−323 package, with ±2.5% tolerance (4.17–4.43 V at 5 mA), 90 Ω maximum dynamic impedance at IZT, and 3.0 µA maximum reverse leakage at 3.0 V. It provides precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the MM3Z4V3ST1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its tight Zener tolerance, low-profile SOD−323 footprint (1.7 × 1.25 × 0.9 mm), ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), thermal resistance (635 °C/W), and compatibility with Pb-free reflow soldering (260 °C/10 s).
Technical Context
The MM3Z4V3ST1 operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator, conducting in reverse breakdown to clamp voltage across a load. Its Zener mechanism delivers stable regulation at 5 mA test current, with temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C and capacitance ≤450 pF at 0 V bias and 1 MHz.
Designed for low-power signal-level referencing and transient suppression, it features a cathode-band polarity indicator, void-free molded plastic case (UL 94 V−0), and specified operation from −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature. Derating begins above 25 °C at 1.5 mW/°C.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of MM3Z4V3ST1?
The MM3Z4V3ST1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 4.3 V with a tolerance of ±2.5%, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 4.17 V and 4.43 V when tested at 5 mA. This tight tolerance is specified per the onsemi datasheet Rev. 15 and enables precise voltage clamping without post-production trimming. The MM3Z4V3ST1 achieves this consistency through process-controlled doping and wafer-level screening.
Can MM3Z4V3ST1 be used in Pb-free reflow processes?
Yes, the MM3Z4V3ST1 supports Pb-free reflow soldering with a maximum peak temperature of 260 °C for 10 seconds, as confirmed in the mechanical characteristics section of the official datasheet. Its terminations are plated with Sn-only or Pb−Sn, and the package complies with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements. The MM3Z4V3ST1 is also offered in Pb-free variants denoted by the "G" suffix (e.g., MM3Z4V3ST1G).
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for MM3Z4V3ST1?
The MM3Z4V3ST1 exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 3.0 µA when biased at 3.0 V, measured at 25 °C. This low leakage ensures minimal power loss in battery-powered applications such as wearables and remote sensors. The value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and directly impacts standby current budgeting in designs using the MM3Z4V3ST1 as a reference or clamp.
How does the temperature coefficient affect MM3Z4V3ST1 performance?
The MM3Z4V3ST1 has a temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C at IZT = 5 mA, meaning its Zener voltage decreases by approximately 3.5 mV per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature. This negative TC is typical for Zeners below 5 V and must be accounted for in precision reference designs operating across wide ambient ranges. The MM3Z4V3ST1's TC is characterized and guaranteed in the datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table.
Is MM3Z4V3ST1 suitable for high-frequency noise suppression?
The MM3Z4V3ST1 has a maximum capacitance of 450 pF at 0 V bias and 1 MHz, making it suitable for suppressing low-to-mid frequency noise (e.g., switching ripple below ~10 MHz) but not ideal for GHz-range RF filtering. Its capacitance is stable across bias and temperature, supporting predictable decoupling behavior. For applications requiring both regulation and broadband suppression, the MM3Z4V3ST1 is often paired with ceramic capacitors-leveraging its inherent C-value while maintaining its primary role as a voltage clamp.
