Product details
Overview
MM5Z4V3 from ON Semiconductor is a 500 mW, 4.3 V nominal Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD−523 package, with ±0.3 V tolerance (4.0–4.6 V), 90 Ω maximum Zener impedance at 5 mA test current, and 3 μA reverse leakage at 1 V, designed for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the MM5Z4V3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its 4.3 V regulation accuracy, low-profile 1.20 mm × 0.80 mm footprint, Class 3 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), thermal resistance of 250°C/W, and compatibility with reflow profiles up to 260°C.
Technical Context
The MM5Z4V3 operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator, maintaining stable output voltage across varying load currents by conducting excess current to ground when input exceeds its Zener breakdown threshold. Its regulation is defined at IZT = 5 mA, with specified VZ range of 4.0 V to 4.6 V and temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C.
It features a low body height of 0.7 mm and meets MSL 1 moisture sensitivity requirements, enabling use in high-density PCB assemblies without solder voiding risk. The device uses 100% matte tin lead finish and void-free thermosetting epoxy packaging compliant with UL 94 V−0.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584-C4V3 | Same 4.3 V nominal, but SOD-323 package (1.7 × 1.3 mm); 350 mW power rating; higher ZZT (120 Ω) | Larger footprint and lower power limit restrict use in ultra-dense layouts or higher-current clamping | Select when legacy SOD-323 layout exists or cost sensitivity outweighs size/power advantages |
| MMSZ4V3ET1G | SOD-123 package (3.7 × 1.6 mm); 500 mW rating; wider VZ tolerance (4.08–4.52 V); 100 Ω ZZT | Requires 4.6× more board area; less precise regulation limits use in high-accuracy references | Prefer for through-hole-compatible rework scenarios or where thermal mass improves long-term stability |
Compared with BZX584-C4V3 and MMSZ4V3ET1G, the MM5Z4V3 delivers superior space efficiency (smallest footprint), tighter voltage tolerance, and lower dynamic impedance-making it optimal for next-generation portable and wearables where PCB real estate and regulation precision are critical.

FAQ
What is the exact Zener voltage tolerance of MM5Z4V3 at 25°C?
The MM5Z4V3 has a guaranteed Zener voltage range of 4.0 V to 4.6 V at 5 mA test current and 25°C ambient temperature, with 4.3 V as the nominal value. This ±0.3 V tolerance is verified per the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official datasheet, and applies strictly to the MM5Z4V3T1G/T5G ordering variants.
Does MM5Z4V3 support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, the MM5Z4V3 is qualified for lead-free reflow with a maximum peak temperature of 260°C and meets MSL 1 requirements. Its 100% matte tin lead finish and void-free epoxy package ensure reliable wetting and intermetallic formation without delamination or popcorning during standard JEDEC J-STD-020-compliant profiles.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for MM5Z4V3 at 1 V?
The MM5Z4V3 exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 3 μA at VR = 1 V and TA = 25°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This low leakage supports ultra-low-power operation in always-on supervisory circuits and battery-backed monitoring functions.
Is MM5Z4V3 suitable for automotive applications?
The SZMM5Z4V3T1G variant-not the standard MM5Z4V3T1G-is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable for automotive use. The base MM5Z4V3T1G is intended for commercial and industrial applications; its datasheet does not list automotive qualification, and no AEC-Q101 test reports are published for this specific ordering part number.
How does the temperature coefficient affect MM5Z4V3's regulation accuracy over temperature?
The MM5Z4V3 has a temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C, meaning its Zener voltage decreases linearly with rising junction temperature. Over the full −65°C to +150°C range, this results in approximately ±0.6 V total drift, which must be accounted for in precision reference designs-especially when used without compensation networks.
