Product details
Overview
MMBZ5228BS-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a dual isolated 3.9 V ±5% Zener diode pair in SOT-363 package, rated for 200 mW total power dissipation, 20 mA test current, and 23 Ω dynamic impedance at 1 kHz; used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamping in space-constrained analog signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMBZ5228BS-7-F datasheet, MMBZ5228BS-7-F pinout, MMBZ5228BS-7-F application, or MMBZ5228BS-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include nominal Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), low leakage (≤10 µA @ 1.0 V), thermal resistance (625 °C/W), and dual-diode isolation for bidirectional clamping or dual-reference designs.
Technical Context
This dual-Zener device integrates two electrically isolated 3.9 V Zener junctions in a single ultra-small SOT-363 package, enabling symmetrical clamping or independent reference generation without cross-coupling. Each diode operates with a specified 20 mA test current and exhibits 23 Ω typical impedance at 1 kHz.
It supports operation across –65 °C to +150 °C ambient temperature range and derates linearly above 25 °C per the published power derating curve. The device uses planar die construction and matte tin-plated Alloy 42 leads for RoHS-compliant solderability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage | 3.9 V nominal, 3.71–4.10 V min/max at 20 mA - defines stable clamping threshold for low-voltage rail protection |
| Power Dissipation | 200 mW total - limits continuous clamping energy in compact PCB layouts |
| Zener Impedance | 23 Ω at 1 kHz, 20 mA - determines voltage regulation stability under dynamic load transients |
| Reverse Leakage | ≤10 µA at 1.0 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby reference applications |
| Thermal Resistance | 625 °C/W junction-to-ambient - requires careful pad layout per AP02001 for reliable 200 mW operation |
| Package | SOT-363 - 6-pin ultra-small outline supporting automated placement and high-density routing |

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-C3V9LT1G | Single 3.9 V Zener in SOT-23; no dual isolation; 30 Ω ZZT, 50 µA IR @ 1 V | Requires two devices for dual-clamp function; higher leakage limits low-power reference use | Select when only one clamping node is needed and board area permits discrete placement |
| MMBZ5228B-7-F | Same Zener voltage but single-diode variant in SOT-23; lacks second isolated junction | Cannot support bidirectional or dual-rail clamping without external duplication | Choose only if dual functionality is unnecessary and SOT-23 footprint is preferred |
Compared with BZX84-C3V9LT1G and MMBZ5228B-7-F, MMBZ5228BS-7-F uniquely delivers two isolated 3.9 V Zeners in one SOT-363, reducing component count and interconnect parasitics in compact dual-signal protection designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for MMBZ5228BS-7-F?
The maximum reverse leakage current is 10 µA at 1.0 V reverse bias, measured at 25 °C ambient temperature. This value ensures minimal loading on low-power reference nodes and supports accurate voltage regulation in battery-operated systems where quiescent current matters.
Can MMBZ5228BS-7-F be used for bidirectional clamping?
Yes - its dual isolated Zener structure allows one diode to clamp positive transients (anode grounded, cathode to signal) and the other to clamp negative transients (cathode grounded, anode to signal), enabling true bidirectional protection on a single net without external polarity reversal circuitry.
What is the thermal resistance of MMBZ5228BS-7-F, and how does it affect layout?
Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 625 °C/W on FR4 with recommended pad layout (AP02001). To sustain full 200 mW dissipation, designers must implement minimum copper area per Diodes' layout guidelines - undersized pads cause junction temperatures to exceed 150 °C even at room ambient.
How does the SOT-363 package differ from SOT-23 for this Zener series?
SOT-363 provides six terminals to accommodate two isolated Zener dies in one package, whereas SOT-23 supports only one diode. The SOT-363's dual-pin cathode/anode pairs enable independent routing, eliminating crosstalk and simplifying PCB layout for dual-function applications like differential clamping or split-rail references.
