Product details
Overview
MM5Z7V5ST1G from onsemi is a 7.5 V ±3.8% tolerance Zener diode in SOD-523 package, rated for 500 mW steady-state power dissipation at 25 °C, with 140 pF capacitance at 0 V and 1 MHz, 15 Ω maximum Zener impedance at 5 mA test current, and Class 3 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM). It provides precision voltage regulation in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the MM5Z7V5ST1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its tight 7.28–7.60 V Zener voltage range at 5 mA, low 15 Ω dynamic impedance, 140 pF junction capacitance, −65 to +150 °C operating temperature range, and Pb-free, RoHS-compliant SOD-523 footprint.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference and overvoltage clamp, leveraging avalanche breakdown in silicon PN junction. Its 5 mA test current and 15 Ω Zener impedance at IZT ensure stable regulation under moderate load transients.
The SOD-523 package enables high-density PCB layouts with minimal thermal mass; its 250 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance requires careful layout for sustained 500 mW operation, especially above 25 °C ambient where derating is 4.0 mW/°C.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584C7V5 | 7.5 V ±5%, 300 mW rating, SOD-323 package (1.7 × 1.3 mm) | Larger footprint; lower power rating limits use in sustained clamp scenarios | Select when board space allows larger package and 300 mW suffices |
| MMSZ5236BT1G | 7.5 V ±5%, 500 mW, SOD-123 package (3.7 × 1.6 mm) | 3× larger footprint; same power but less suitable for ultra-dense layouts | Select when thermal margin is critical and PCB real estate permits larger case |
Compared with BZX584C7V5 and MMSZ5236BT1G, MM5Z7V5ST1G offers tighter voltage tolerance and smallest footprint among 7.5 V Zeners, making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability portable designs where 500 mW dissipation and Class 3 ESD are required.

FAQ
What is the exact Zener voltage range of MM5Z7V5ST1G at 5 mA test current?
The MM5Z7V5ST1G has a guaranteed Zener voltage range of 7.28 V to 7.60 V when tested at 5 mA (IZT), corresponding to ±3.8% tolerance around the nominal 7.5 V rating. This specification is validated per onsemi's Electrical Characteristics table and applies under standard 25 °C ambient conditions. The MM5Z7V5ST1G maintains this range across its full operating temperature span when used within derated power limits.
Is MM5Z7V5ST1G suitable for automotive applications?
MM5Z7V5ST1G itself is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the automotive-grade variant SZMM5Z7V5ST1G is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable. For non-automotive industrial or consumer applications, MM5Z7V5ST1G delivers identical electrical performance and reliability. Always verify qualification status using the full part number prefix when selecting for automotive use cases.
What is the maximum junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for MM5Z7V5ST1G?
The MM5Z7V5ST1G has a maximum junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RJA) of 250 °C/W when mounted on a single-sided FR-4 PCB with a 1 cm² copper pad. This value assumes standard JEDEC test conditions and must be adjusted for actual board layout, copper area, and airflow. Derating begins above 25 °C ambient at 4.0 mW/°C, limiting usable power at elevated temperatures.
Does MM5Z7V5ST1G have a defined forward voltage specification?
Yes, the MM5Z7V5ST1G specifies a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 0.9 V at 10 mA forward current (IF), consistent across the entire MM5ZxxxST1G series. This parameter is relevant for polarity-check circuits or applications where the device may conduct in forward bias during fault conditions. The forward characteristic is verified per onsemi's Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of the datasheet.
How is the cathode identified on the MM5Z7V5ST1G SOD-523 package?
The cathode of the MM5Z7V5ST1G is marked by a polarity band at Pin 1 - the banded end of the SOD-523 package. Per onsemi's mechanical drawing and marking diagram, Pin 1 is always the cathode and Pin 2 is the anode. This band is visible as a dark stripe or printed mark on the top surface and must align with the PCB silkscreen indicator during placement to ensure correct reverse-bias operation.
