Product details
Overview
MMBZ5223BS-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual isolated 2.7 V Zener diode pair in SOT-363 package, rated for 200 mW total power dissipation, 30 Ω zener impedance at 20 mA test current, and 75 µA reverse leakage at 1.0 V reverse bias; used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamping in space-constrained analog signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMBZ5223BS-7 datasheet, MMBZ5223BS-7 pinout, MMBZ5223BS-7 application, or MMBZ5223BS-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include nominal zener voltage tolerance (±4.4%), thermal resistance (625 °C/W), dual-diode isolation, SOT-363 footprint compatibility, and RoHS-compliant matte tin plating.
Technical Context
This device integrates two electrically isolated Zener diodes on a single planar silicon die within an ultra-small surface-mount package. Each diode operates independently with identical 2.7 V nominal breakdown voltage, 20 mA test current, and 30 Ω dynamic impedance at 1 kHz.
The dual configuration supports bidirectional clamping or dual-rail reference generation without cross-coupling. Thermal derating follows a linear curve from 200 mW at 25°C ambient to zero at 150°C, based on FR4 PCB mounting with recommended pad layout.
Key Specifications

Applications
| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | USB Port ESD Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stabilizing ADC reference voltage in 4–20 mA loop-powered transmitters operating across −40°C to +85°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual Zener provides matched 2.7 V rail-to-rail clamping on differential input lines while maintaining isolation between channels. Use Value: Prevents ADC saturation during line transients without introducing common-mode error due to dual-isolation architecture. | Use Scenario: Protecting USB 2.0 D+ and D− data lines from ±8 kV contact ESD per IEC 61000-4-2. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Each Zener clamps one data line to ground via series resistor; NC pins allow routing flexibility in tight layouts. Use Value: Achieves sub-1 ns response time and <10 pF line capacitance-critical for maintaining USB 480 Mbps signal integrity. |
| Automotive Body Control Module | Medical Wearable Battery Monitor |
Use Scenario: Regulating 2.7 V supply for CAN transceiver bias in 12 V vehicle subsystems with load dump transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One Zener regulates local LDO input; second serves as overvoltage detector triggering shutdown logic. Use Value: Dual functionality eliminates need for separate reference and monitor ICs, reducing BOM count and board space. | Use Scenario: Providing stable voltage reference for lithium-ion cell voltage measurement in sub-gram wearable patches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener pair supplies ratiometric reference to 12-bit ADC while rejecting battery ripple up to 100 kHz. Use Value: 75 µA leakage ensures <0.1% error contribution at 1 µA sensor bias currents-essential for microamp-level power budgets. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-Zener voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C2V7LT1G | Single 2.7 V Zener in SOT-23; no dual isolation; 30 Ω ZZT, 100 µA IR @ 1 V | Requires two devices for dual-rail use; higher leakage increases quiescent error in low-current sensors | Select when only one reference rail is needed and board area allows discrete placement of two units |
| MMBZ5225BS-7 | 3.0 V nominal Zener; same SOT-363 package, 200 mW rating, and dual-isolation topology | Used where higher reference voltage improves noise margin against 3.3 V logic thresholds | Select when system requires tighter regulation above 2.84 V upper limit of MMBZ5223BS-7 |
Compared with BZX84-C2V7LT1G and MMBZ5225BS-7, the MMBZ5223BS-7 uniquely delivers matched 2.7 V dual-clamp capability in minimal area, enabling single-component solutions for differential signal protection and dual-supply monitoring where voltage tolerance and leakage are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage that can be continuously applied to MMBZ5223BS-7 without breakdown?
The absolute maximum reverse voltage before breakdown is defined by its nominal zener voltage range: 2.57 V to 2.84 V at 20 mA test current. Applying more than 2.84 V continuously will cause conduction; for safe non-conducting operation, reverse bias must remain below 1.0 V, where leakage stays ≤75 µA per datasheet specifications.
Can both Zener diodes in MMBZ5223BS-7 share the same 200 mW power rating?
No-the 200 mW rating applies to the entire device. Power must be allocated between both diodes; simultaneous full-power operation of both Zeners would exceed thermal limits. Derating is required if both are active, with total dissipation capped at 200 mW regardless of distribution across C1/A1 and C2/A2 terminals.
Is MMBZ5223BS-7 suitable for bidirectional ESD protection on a single signal line?
Yes-by connecting A1 and C2 together as the signal node, and grounding C1 and A2, the device forms a symmetrical 2.7 V clamp. This configuration leverages both Zeners back-to-back to limit voltage excursions to ±2.7 V, meeting IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 requirements when paired with appropriate series impedance.
Does the SOT-363 package of MMBZ5223BS-7 support reflow soldering per J-STD-020?
Yes-the device is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020D with peak temperature up to 260°C and moisture sensitivity level 1, meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ≤30°C/60% RH without baking prior to assembly. Terminal plating meets MIL-STD-202 Method 208 for solderability.
