Product details
Overview
MM5Z4V3T1 from onsemi is a 4.3 V, 100 mW Zener diode in SOD−523 package, designed for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in space-constrained circuits. It delivers ±5% nominal Zener voltage tolerance (4.0–4.6 V), 90 Ω maximum Zener impedance at 5 mA test current, and 3 µA reverse leakage at 1.0 V, enabling stable reference generation in portable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the MM5Z4V3T1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 4.3 V breakdown voltage, 100 mW power rating, SOD−523 footprint compatibility, ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), and low-profile 0.7 mm height for high-density PCBs.
Technical Context
This Zener regulator operates in reverse-bias breakdown mode with a nominal 4.3 V regulation point at IZT = 5 mA. Its temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C ensures predictable drift across −65°C to +150°C junction range, supporting stable references in thermally varying environments.
The device features low dynamic impedance (90 Ω max at 5 mA) and minimal capacitance (450 pF at 0 V, 1 MHz), making it suitable for noise-sensitive analog supply clamping and low-current biasing applications where fast transient response and minimal signal coupling are required.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of MM5Z4V3T1?
The MM5Z4V3T1 has a specified Zener voltage range of 4.0 V to 4.6 V at 5 mA test current, representing ±5% tolerance around the nominal 4.3 V value. This tolerance is guaranteed across operating temperatures and ensures consistent clamping performance in production units of MM5Z4V3T1 without binning or calibration.
Can MM5Z4V3T1 be used in place of a 3.3 V Zener diode?
No - the MM5Z4V3T1 is rated for 4.3 V nominal breakdown and is not suitable as a direct substitute for a 3.3 V Zener. Using MM5Z4V3T1 in a 3.3 V rail would result in insufficient clamping, potentially allowing overvoltage conditions to persist. For 3.3 V regulation, MM5Z3V3T1 (3.1–3.5 V) is the appropriate variant in the same series.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for MM5Z4V3T1?
The MM5Z4V3T1 has a maximum steady-state power dissipation of 100 mW at 25°C ambient temperature on an FR-5 board. Derating is required above 25°C - approximately 0.83 mW/°C - meaning at 85°C ambient, the usable power drops to ~50 mW. This limit must be observed in MM5Z4V3T1 thermal design to avoid junction overheating.
Does MM5Z4V3T1 meet industry ESD standards?
Yes - the MM5Z4V3T1 is rated Class 3 per Human Body Model (HBM) with >16 kV ESD withstand capability. This exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (8 kV contact) requirements and qualifies MM5Z4V3T1 for use in handheld devices, USB interfaces, and other end-equipment exposed to frequent electrostatic discharge events.
What is the forward voltage drop of MM5Z4V3T1?
The MM5Z4V3T1 exhibits a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 0.9 V at 10 mA forward current, as specified in the datasheet. This parameter is relevant when the device is inadvertently forward-biased, such as during circuit power-up sequencing or fault conditions - ensuring MM5Z4V3T1 does not create excessive voltage drop in unintended conduction paths.
