Product details
Overview
MMBZ16VZ-LS from Nexperia is a bidirectional transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode in DFN1006BD-2 (SOD882BD) package, designed for ESD and surge protection of single bidirectional signal or supply lines. It features 13 V reverse stand-off voltage (VRWM), 36 V clamping voltage at 7 A (VCL), <1 nA leakage current, and 23 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact ESD rating.
For engineers reviewing the MMBZ16VZ-LS datasheet, MMBZ16VZ-LS pinout, MMBZ16VZ-LS application, or MMBZ16VZ-LS equivalent, this device is selected for high-reliability interface line protection where low capacitance (15–20 pF), ultra-small footprint, and robust 8/20 µs surge handling (7 A) are critical in space-constrained industrial and communication designs.
Technical Context
This dual-cathode TVS diode implements a symmetrical bidirectional clamping structure, enabling protection of AC-coupled or bipolar signal lines without polarity constraints. Its VBR of 15.9–17 V at 1 mA and clamping performance across 1 A to 7 A (18.6–43 V) supports compliance with IEC 61000-4-2, -4-5, and ISO 10605 standards.
The DFN1006BD-2 package with side-wettable flanks enables automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints and ensures mechanical stability under thermal cycling. Its 1 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.47 mm body and 0.65 mm pitch support high-density PCB layouts in portable and embedded systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 13 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins; defines safe operating margin for 12 V supply or interface lines. |
| VCL @ 7 A | 36 V (typ) - Clamped voltage during 8/20 µs surge; limits downstream IC stress to sub-43 V peak under full-rated 7 A transient. |
| IRM | <1 nA - Ultra-low leakage preserves signal integrity and battery life in always-on circuits. |
| Cd | 15–20 pF @ 0 V - Low capacitance avoids signal distortion on high-speed lines (e.g., USB 2.0, I²C, UART). |
| ESD Rating | 23 kV (IEC 61000-4-2 contact) - Withstands repeated human-body-model discharges without degradation. |
| Package | DFN1006BD-2 (SOD882BD) - 0.65 mm pitch, side-wettable flanks for AOI-compatible reflow and high-volume assembly. |
Pinout & Package
DFN1006BD-2 (SOD882BD) is a 2-terminal leadless plastic package measuring 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.47 mm, with side-wettable flanks for solder-joint inspection and optimized thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | K1 (Cathode 1) | Connects to protected line; forms one half of symmetrical bidirectional clamping path to ground. |
| 2 | K2 (Cathode 2) | Ground reference terminal; completes clamping loop for both positive and negative transients. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional clamping | Enables protection of AC or bipolar signals (e.g., RS-485, audio, sensor outputs) without external polarity management. |
| Side-wettable flanks | Supports automated optical inspection of solder fillets-critical for automotive and medical-grade manufacturing traceability. |
| Low dynamic resistance | Ensures stable clamping across pulse widths (8/20 µs, 10/1000 µs, TLP), minimizing voltage overshoot during fast transients. |
| High junction temperature rating | 150 °C max Tj allows operation in thermally demanding environments (e.g., enclosed industrial enclosures, power supplies). |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Interface | USB 2.0 Data Line Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting analog output lines of pressure/temperature sensors in factory automation PLCs exposed to cable discharge events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional TVS diode placed at connector entry point to clamp ±23 kV ESD and 1 kV surge pulses before reaching ADC front-end. Use Value: Prevents latch-up or permanent damage to precision op-amps and SAR ADCs while maintaining signal fidelity via 15–20 pF capacitance. | Use Scenario: Safeguarding D+ and D− lines of embedded USB host controllers in consumer set-top boxes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone ESD suppressor meeting USB-IF ESD requirements, installed within 3 mm of USB receptacle per layout guidelines. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete RC filters by combining low capacitance and fast response (<1 ns), preserving signal rise time and eye diagram integrity. |
| RS-485 Transceiver Port | Power Supply Rail Clamp |
Use Scenario: Shielding half-duplex RS-485 bus nodes in building control networks from lightning-induced surges on long cable runs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary line protector between bus termination resistor and transceiver I/O pins, rated for 7 A 8/20 µs pulses per IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3. Use Value: Limits clamped voltage to ≤43 V, ensuring transceiver survival under 4 kV surge tests without derating or additional series impedance. | Use Scenario: Guarding 12 V auxiliary supply rails feeding FPGA I/O banks in telecom baseband cards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary overvoltage clamp parallel to bulk capacitor, activated only during fast transients exceeding VRWM. Use Value: Adds fail-safe layer beyond primary DC-DC OVP, absorbing energy from hot-swap or load-dump events without affecting steady-state regulation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional TVS protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor SZ1.5SMC13A | Unidirectional; higher VRWM (13 V), but larger SMC package (7.1 mm × 6.2 mm); 500 W peak power vs. 400 W typical for MMBZ16VZ-LS. | Requires separate devices per polarity; unsuitable for space-constrained PCBs or bidirectional lines. | Select when higher surge energy handling (>500 W) is needed and board area permits SMC footprint. |
| Vishay SMAJ13A | Unidirectional; same VRWM (13 V), SMA package (4.5 mm × 2.7 mm); 400 W rating; no side-wettable flanks. | Lacks AOI capability; requires manual solder joint inspection; not optimized for fine-pitch automated assembly. | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial designs where AOI is not mandated and SMA mounting is acceptable. |
Compared with SZ1.5SMC13A and SMAJ13A, the MMBZ16VZ-LS delivers bidirectional protection in a 0.6 mm pitch, AOI-ready package-enabling single-device protection of differential or AC-coupled lines while reducing BOM count and PCB area by >95% versus discrete unidirectional alternatives.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of MMBZ16VZ-LS under a 7 A 8/20 µs surge?
The typical clamping voltage is 36 V, with a maximum of 43 V at 7 A and 25 °C ambient, per IEC 61000-4-5 test conditions. This value is measured across the device terminals during the peak of the transient pulse and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry.
Can MMBZ16VZ-LS protect bidirectional signal lines like RS-485 or CAN?
Yes-it is a symmetric bidirectional TVS diode with identical clamping behavior for both polarities, making it suitable for protecting differential or AC-coupled lines such as RS-485, CAN FD, and audio paths without polarity concerns or external biasing.
Does the DFN1006BD-2 package support automated optical inspection (AOI)?
Yes-the side-wettable flanks (SWF) design enables reliable solder-joint inspection using standard AOI systems, satisfying IPC-A-610 Class 2 and Class 3 requirements for automotive and industrial assemblies.
How does MMBZ16VZ-LS compare to unidirectional TVS diodes in layout and performance?
Unlike unidirectional TVS diodes, MMBZ16VZ-LS protects both positive and negative transients with a single 2-pin device, eliminating the need for dual-diode configurations or ground-referenced placements. Its 15–20 pF capacitance and 0.65 mm pitch also enable tighter routing and better high-frequency response than larger unidirectional packages like SMA or SMC.
