Product details
Overview
MMBZ5223BS-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a dual isolated 2.7 V Zener diode in SOT-363 package, rated for 200 mW power dissipation, 30 Ω zener impedance at 20 mA, and 75 μA reverse leakage at 1.0 V reverse bias; used for voltage regulation and reference in space-constrained portable power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMBZ5223BS-7-F datasheet, MMBZ5223BS-7-F pinout, MMBZ5223BS-7-F application, or MMBZ5223BS-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include nominal zener voltage tolerance (±4.4%), thermal resistance (625 °C/W), dual-diode isolation, RoHS-compliant matte tin plating, and SOT-363 footprint compatibility with automated pick-and-place.
Technical Context
This dual-element Zener diode integrates two electrically isolated 2.7 V breakdown junctions in a single ultra-small SOT-363 package, enabling compact dual-rail voltage clamping or reference generation without cross-coupling. Each element operates independently with identical electrical specs: 20 mA test current, 30 Ω dynamic impedance at 1 kHz, and 1300 Ω knee impedance at 0.25 mA.
The device uses planar die construction for stable breakdown characteristics across -65°C to +150°C operating range and achieves 625 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on FR4 PCB with recommended pad layout. Its lead-free, halogen-free molding compound complies with Diodes Inc.'s "Green" policy and J-STD-020D Level 1 moisture sensitivity rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 2.7 V nominal, 2.57–2.84 V min/max at 20 mA - ensures tight regulation for low-voltage logic supply monitoring |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 200 mW - limits continuous current to ~74 mA at 2.7 V, defining safe operating area in battery-powered circuits |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 30 Ω at 20 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients in feedback reference paths |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 75 μA at 1.0 V - defines minimum bias current required to maintain regulation in high-impedance sensing nodes |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 625 °C/W - requires derating above 25°C ambient; full power only usable below 70°C board temperature |
| Package | SOT-363 - 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm footprint with six terminals, supporting dual isolated Zeners in one land pattern |
| Operating Temp | -65°C to +150°C - enables use in automotive under-hood and industrial motor control environments |
Pinout & Package
SOT-363 package with six terminals: two anodes (A1, A2), two cathodes (C1, C2), and two no-connect (NC) pins. Molded plastic case meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating; terminals are solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| C1 | Cathode of Zener 1 | Connected to regulated node; reverse-biased to establish 2.7 V reference relative to A1 |
| A1 | Anode of Zener 1 | Common return path for first Zener; tied to ground or lower potential rail |
| C2 | Cathode of Zener 2 | Independent regulated output node; electrically isolated from C1/A1 pair |
| A2 | Anode of Zener 2 | Second independent return path; allows dual-rail referencing without shared impedance |
| NC | No Connect | Unused internal terminal; must remain unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling or ESD risk |
| NC | No Connect | Unused internal terminal; left floating per manufacturer recommendation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual isolated Zener elements | Enables independent voltage clamping or reference generation on two separate circuits within same footprint |
| Planar die construction | Delivers stable, repeatable breakdown voltage with low temperature coefficient across full operating range |
| Lead-free / RoHS-compliant plating | Matte tin finish over Alloy 42 leadframe ensures reliable solder wetting and eliminates Pb-related reliability concerns |
| Ultra-small SOT-363 package | Reduces PCB area by >50% vs. discrete dual-SOT-23 solution while maintaining full electrical isolation |
Applications
| Battery Voltage Monitor | USB Port Overvoltage Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitoring Li-ion cell voltage during charging in wearables using microcontroller ADC with internal reference. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides stable 2.7 V reference for ADC scaling and undervoltage lockout threshold detection. Use Value: Tight ±4.4% VZ tolerance and 75 μA IR minimize quiescent current draw and improve measurement accuracy at low battery states. | Use Scenario: Protecting USB data lines (D+/D−) from ESD-induced overvoltage events in portable accessories. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual Zener configuration clamps both lines symmetrically to 2.7 V above GND and below VCC. Use Value: Independent C1/A1 and C2/A2 paths prevent crosstalk between D+ and D− protection circuits during fast transient suppression. |
| Low-Power Sensor Biasing | Industrial PLC Input Protection |
Use Scenario: Supplying precise bias voltage to MEMS accelerometer analog front-end in always-on IoT nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as shunt regulator to stabilize 2.7 V supply rail feeding sensor signal conditioning circuitry. Use Value: 30 Ω ZZT ensures <10 mV output shift under 300 μA load variation, preserving sensor SNR. | Use Scenario: Protecting 24 V digital input channels in programmable logic controllers against field-wiring surges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One Zener element clamps input to 2.7 V above common, the other to 2.7 V below, forming bidirectional TVS-like behavior. Use Value: Dual-isolation prevents ground loop interference between adjacent input channels sharing same backplane. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBZ5223B-7-F | Single-element version in same SOT-363 package; lacks second isolated Zener | Only suitable where dual-rail referencing or channel isolation is unnecessary | Select when board space allows separate placement or only one reference is needed |
| BZX84-C2V7LT1G | Single 2.7 V Zener in SOT-23; 300 mW rating, 30 Ω ZZT, but no dual-element integration | Requires two devices and extra PCB area for dual-channel use; higher assembly cost | Choose if existing SOT-23 footprint reuse is prioritized over miniaturization |
Compared with MMBZ5223BS-7-F, the single-element MMBZ5223B-7-F saves no board area in dual-use cases and BZX84-C2V7LT1G increases component count and layout complexity-making the dual-isolated SOT-363 version optimal for space-constrained dual-reference designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current this device can handle before thermal runaway?
The MMBZ5223BS-7-F has a 200 mW power rating and 625 °C/W thermal resistance. At 2.7 V, maximum continuous reverse current is approximately 74 mA at 25°C ambient. Above that, self-heating exceeds safe junction temperature unless board-level heatsinking or derating is applied per Figure 1's power derating curve.
Can both Zener elements be used simultaneously with shared cathode connections?
No. The device features two fully isolated Zener junctions: C1/A1 and C2/A2 are electrically independent. Sharing cathodes would short the internal isolation barrier and invalidate the specified 2.7 V breakdown for either element. Each must be used with its dedicated anode and cathode pair.
Is the SOT-363 package compatible with standard reflow profiles for lead-free assembly?
Yes. The device is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020D Level 1 moisture sensitivity, with matte tin plating compatible with peak temperatures up to 260°C. Recommended profile follows IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020, with ramp rates and time-above-liquidus aligned to typical Pb-free SAC305 processes.
How does the 1300 Ω knee impedance at 0.25 mA affect low-current reference performance?
At sub-mA bias currents, the 1300 Ω knee impedance causes significant voltage droop: a 100 μA load shift produces ~130 mV error. For precision low-current references, operation above 1 mA is recommended to stay within the 30 Ω ZZT region where regulation remains stable and predictable.
