Product details
Overview
MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a dual unidirectional TVS diode in SOT23 package, designed for ESD and transient overvoltage protection of two signal lines in common-cathode configuration. It features 27 V breakdown voltage (VBR = 25.65–28.35 V @ IT = 1.0 mA), 40 W peak pulse power (1 ms), 40 V max clamping voltage (VC @ IPP = 1.0 A), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive control units.
For engineers reviewing the MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F datasheet, MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F pinout, MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F application, or MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin vs. protected IC's absolute maximum rating, junction capacitance (<10 pF at 0 V), common-cathode topology compatibility with differential or dual-rail signal paths, and IATF 16949-manufactured supply chain traceability.
Technical Context
This device integrates two monolithic silicon Zener junctions sharing a common cathode terminal, enabling coordinated transient suppression across paired signal lines without cross-talk. Its 40 W peak power rating (per IEC 61000-4-5 10/1000 µs waveform) and low leakage (<50 nA @ VRWM = 22 V) support robust protection in high-reliability interfaces.
The SOT23 package delivers thermal resistance of 500 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, FR-4 board), and its −55 °C to +150 °C operating range meets under-hood automotive requirements. Temperature coefficient of reverse voltage is +0.090 %/°C, ensuring stable clamping across temperature extremes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 25.65–28.35 V @ IT = 1.0 mA - defines minimum trigger threshold before clamping activates |
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 22 V - maximum continuous DC or RMS signal voltage the diode blocks without conduction |
| Max Clamping Voltage (VC) | 40 V @ IPP = 1.0 A - limits transient voltage seen by downstream ICs during 10/1000 µs surge |
| Peak Pulse Power (PPK) | 40 W @ 1.0 ms - supports IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity testing |
| Junction Capacitance (CJ) | <10 pF @ 0 V - minimizes signal integrity impact on high-speed lines (e.g., CAN, LIN, sensor interfaces) |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | >8 kV - exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±15 kV air / ±8 kV contact) for system-level ESD robustness |
| Operating Temperature | −55 °C to +150 °C - enables deployment in engine control modules and transmission control units |
Pinout & Package

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Industrial Sensor Interface |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protecting LIN bus transceiver pins against load dump and ESD in door module ECUs. IC Role / Device Role: Dual-line transient suppressor placed directly at connector entry point before transceiver input. Use Value: Clamps surges to ≤40 V while maintaining <10 pF loading - prevents transceiver latch-up and preserves 19.2 kbps signal fidelity. |
Use Scenario: Shielding 4–20 mA current-loop analog inputs from field-induced transients in PLC I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role: Common-cathode TVS across loop supply and return lines to shunt common-mode surges. Use Value: 22 V VRWM allows full 24 V loop headroom; 40 W rating handles 100 V/1 A surge per IEC 61000-4-4. |
| USB-C Port Protection | Automotive Infotainment Display Link |
|
Use Scenario: Safeguarding USB-C CC and VCONN lines from hot-plug ESD and cable discharge events. IC Role / Device Role: One anode protects CC line, other anode protects VCONN; shared cathode to system ground. Use Value: 8 kV HBM rating and sub-10 pF capacitance prevent data corruption during plug insertion and maintain USB PD negotiation timing. |
Use Scenario: Transient suppression on MIPI D-PHY clock and data lanes between infotainment SoC and display panel. IC Role / Device Role: Dual-channel clamping on differential pairs with matched VBR to avoid skew-induced jitter. Use Value: Tight 25.65–28.35 V VBR tolerance ensures simultaneous turn-on; +0.090 %/°C TC maintains clamping stability across cabin temperature swings. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual unidirectional TVS applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ27A | Single-channel, SMA package; 400 W peak power but larger footprint and higher CJ (~25 pF) | Requires two devices for dual-line protection; unsuitable for space-constrained PCBs or high-speed lines | Select when higher surge energy handling is needed and layout area permits discrete placement |
| TPD2E001DRYR | Two-channel unidirectional TVS in SOT-5X3; lower PPK (24 W), lower VC (27 V @ 1 A), CJ = 12 pF | Better clamping for 3.3 V logic, but insufficient for 24 V automotive rails due to 24 V VRWM | Prefer for low-voltage digital interfaces (e.g., I²C, GPIO); avoid where 22 V VRWM margin is required |
Compared with SMAJ27A and TPD2E001DRYR, MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F uniquely balances AEC-Q101 compliance, SOT23 space efficiency, 22 V working voltage headroom, and 40 V clamping-making it optimal for dual-signal automotive and industrial protection where footprint, temperature range, and regulatory alignment are critical.

FAQ
What is the polarity configuration of MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F?
MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F uses a common-cathode unidirectional configuration: Pin 1 and Pin 3 are anodes for two independent Zener junctions, and Pin 2 is their shared cathode. This allows independent clamping of two positive-going transients to a common ground reference, ideal for protecting differential or dual-rail signals without polarity inversion.
Does MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes - MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F is AEC-Q101 qualified, PPAP capable, and manufactured in IATF 16949 certified facilities. Its −55 °C to +150 °C operating range, 8 kV HBM ESD rating, and 40 W surge capability align with ISO 16750-2 and ISO 7637-2 requirements for automotive electronics deployed in engine compartments and body control modules.
How does the 40 W peak power rating translate to real-world surge immunity?
The 40 W rating applies to a 1.0 ms exponential decay pulse (10/1000 µs waveform per IEC 61000-4-5). At 1.0 A peak current, it clamps to ≤40 V - sufficient to protect 24 V-rated transceivers (e.g., LIN, CAN FD) against Level 4 surges. Derating curves show usable power drops to ~25 W at 85 °C ambient, maintaining functional safety margins.
Can MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F be used for bidirectional signal protection?
No - MMBZ27VCLQ-7-F is unidirectional only. It conducts only for positive transients relative to the common cathode (Pin 2). For bidirectional protection (e.g., AC-coupled lines or RS-485), a dual bidirectional TVS like SMBJ26CA or dedicated array such as PUSB3FR4 is required. Using this part on bidirectional lines risks forward conduction and signal distortion.
