Product details
Overview
MM3Z5V6ST1 from onsemi is a 5.6 V ±2.5% tolerance Zener diode in SOD−323 package, rated for 200 mW steady-state power dissipation, with 40 Ω maximum Zener impedance at 5 mA test current and 1.0 μA reverse leakage at 4.5 V. It provides precision voltage regulation in space-constrained portable electronics such as smartphone power rails and USB interface protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MM3Z5V6ST1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its tight 5.49–5.73 V Zener voltage window, low 200 mW thermal limit, SOD−323 footprint compatibility, and Class 3 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM) for robust transient immunity in handheld designs.
Technical Context
This Zener regulator operates in reverse breakdown mode to clamp voltage across sensitive circuit nodes. Its 5.6 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 5 mA test current (IZT), with temperature coefficient of −2.0 mV/°C and dynamic impedance tightly controlled to ≤40 Ω at IZT - enabling stable reference performance under varying load conditions.
The device uses a void-free transfer-molded plastic case (Case 477, Style 1), cathode-indicated by band, and supports Pb−Sn or Sn-only plating. Thermal resistance is 635 °C/W junction-to-ambient on FR−5 board, requiring derating above 25°C at 1.5 mW/°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 5.49–5.73 V at 5 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 200 mW at 25°C - limits continuous energy handling in compact PCB layouts |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | ≤40 Ω at IZT = 5 mA - ensures minimal voltage shift under dynamic load changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤1.0 μA at VR = 4.5 V - guarantees low standby current in battery-powered systems |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - provides inherent electrostatic robustness without external protection |
| Capacitance (C) | ≤200 pF at 0 V, 1 MHz - minimizes signal distortion in high-frequency analog or RF bias networks |
| Package | SOD−323 (Case 477) - 1.7 × 1.25 × 0.9 mm footprint ideal for ultra-dense mobile PCBs |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Connected to regulated output node | Accepts reverse-biased voltage; clamps when input exceeds VZ |

Applications
| Smartphone Power Rail Protection | USB 2.0 Data Line Clamping |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 5 V USB VBUS-supplied subsystems from surge transients during hot-plug events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener voltage clamp placed between VBUS and GND to shunt excess energy before it reaches PMIC inputs. Use Value: 5.6 V breakdown precisely matches USB 2.0 specification margin, preventing false overvoltage shutdown while surviving >16 kV ESD. | Use Scenario: Limiting D+ and D− line voltages during ESD events in portable OTG accessories. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional clamping diode (anode tied to GND, cathode to signal line) suppressing fast transients. Use Value: 200 pF capacitance avoids signal integrity degradation at 480 Mbps, unlike higher-capacitance TVS devices. |
| Wearable Sensor Bias Reference | IoT Node Battery Monitoring |
Use Scenario: Providing stable 5.6 V reference for ADC biasing in compact health-monitoring patches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision Zener used as shunt reference in low-current divider network feeding SAR ADC reference input. Use Value: −2.0 mV/°C tempco and <1 μA leakage ensure <0.5% reference drift across −20°C to +70°C operating range. | Use Scenario: Detecting end-of-charge voltage thresholds in single-cell Li-ion battery fuel gauges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener-based comparator input clamp ensuring consistent trip point despite supply ripple. Use Value: Tight 5.49–5.73 V window eliminates need for trimming resistors, reducing BOM count in cost-sensitive modules. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B5V6,115 | Same 5.6 V nominal, ±2% tolerance; SOD-323 package; 300 mW rating | Higher power rating allows greater surge energy absorption but requires larger layout margin | Select when higher transient energy handling is required and board space permits thermal margin |
| MMSZ5232BT1G | 5.6 V nominal, ±5% tolerance; SOD-123 package; 500 mW rating | Larger SOD-123 footprint and looser tolerance reduce precision in reference applications | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial controls where tighter VZ tolerance is not critical |
Compared with BZX384-B5V6,115 and MMSZ5232BT1G, the MM3Z5V6ST1 offers superior voltage accuracy (±2.5% vs. ±2% or ±5%) in the smallest SOD−323 footprint, making it optimal for high-density consumer electronics where both precision and miniaturization are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of MM3Z5V6ST1?
The MM3Z5V6ST1 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±2.5%, specifying a minimum of 5.49 V and maximum of 5.73 V at 5 mA test current. This tight tolerance ensures predictable clamping behavior in precision voltage reference and protection circuits without post-manufacturing calibration.
Does MM3Z5V6ST1 support Pb−Free assembly processes?
Yes, the MM3Z5V6ST1G variant is Pb−Free and qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020. The standard MM3Z5V6ST1 uses Pb−Sn plating but is also compatible with standard reflow profiles up to 260°C for 10 seconds, as specified in the datasheet.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for MM3Z5V6ST1 at 4.5 V?
The MM3Z5V6ST1 exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current of 1.0 μA at VR = 4.5 V and TA = 25°C. This low leakage supports extended battery life in always-on wearable and IoT sensor nodes where quiescent current must remain sub-microampere.
Can MM3Z5V6ST1 be used in bidirectional ESD protection configurations?
No - MM3Z5V6ST1 is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias clamping only. For bidirectional ESD protection, two MM3Z5V6ST1 devices must be connected anode-to-anode (back-to-back), or a dedicated bidirectional TVS like ESD9B5.0ST5G should be selected instead.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for MM3Z5V6ST1 on FR−5 board?
The MM3Z5V6ST1 has a thermal resistance of 635 °C/W junction-to-ambient when mounted on an FR−5 board. This value assumes minimum pad design per datasheet Note 1 and requires derating by 1.5 mW/°C above 25°C ambient to maintain safe junction temperature within −65°C to +150°C range.
