Product details
Overview
MMBZ5239BLT3G from onsemi is a 9.1 V, 225 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOT-23 package, designed for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in space-constrained circuits. It delivers 10 Ω dynamic impedance at 20 mA test current, supports ≤7 V reverse leakage at 7 V bias, and features Class 3 ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM). It is deployed in power rail clamping for USB interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMBZ5239BLT3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include nominal Zener voltage tolerance (±5.5%), thermal resistance (556 °C/W on FR-5), cathode-anode polarity marking, and Pb-free RoHS-compliant packaging for high-density PCB assembly.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference with fixed breakdown behavior under reverse bias. Its Zener voltage is specified at 20 mA test current (IZT) with a temperature coefficient of +4.5 mV/°C near 9.1 V, and it exhibits low dynamic impedance (10 Ω) ensuring stable regulation across load transients.
The SOT-23 package integrates a single anode (Pin 1), no-connect (Pin 2), and cathode (Pin 3) configuration, enabling unidirectional clamping. Its 225 mW power rating on FR-5 board and 556 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance define safe operating limits for continuous DC or pulsed operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 9.1 V nominal, ±5.5% tolerance at 20 mA - sets precise clamping threshold for 9 V rails. |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 225 mW on FR-5 board - defines maximum continuous power handling without derating. |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 10 Ω at IZT = 20 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load current changes. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 3 μA max at VR = 7 V - guarantees low standby current in undervoltage detection paths. |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - enables direct placement on I/O lines without external ESD protection. |
| Junction Temp Range | −65 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in automotive under-hood and industrial ambient environments. |
| Package | SOT-23 (TO-236), 2.90 × 1.30 × 1.00 mm - enables 0.65 mm pitch routing and high-density layout. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 plastic surface-mount package with void-free thermosetting case, corrosion-resistant finish, and UL 94 V-0 flammability rating. Cathode identified by band; maximum soldering temperature 260 °C for 10 seconds.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Connected to lower-potential node during Zener conduction; must be routed to ground or return path. |
| 2 | No Connection | Floating terminal; no internal bond wire - must remain unconnected on PCB. |
| 3 | Cathode | Connected to regulated node or protected input; polarity band aligns with this pin. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C9V1 | Same 9.1 V nominal Zener, but 300 mW rating on FR-4 and 15 Ω ZZT at 5 mA - higher power, higher impedance. | Preferred where higher surge energy absorption is required, but less suitable for low-current precision references. | Select BZX84-C9V1 when board layout allows larger SOT-23 variant and transient energy exceeds 225 mW limits. |
| MMBZ5239BS | Same electrical specs, but in SOD-123 package (3.7 × 1.6 × 1.1 mm) - 40% larger footprint, higher thermal mass. | Better suited for manual rework or high-reliability aerospace assemblies requiring larger solder joints. | Choose MMBZ5239BS only if SOT-23 assembly yield is insufficient or JEDEC moisture sensitivity level must be reduced. |
Compared with BZX84-C9V1 and MMBZ5239BS, the MMBZ5239BLT3G offers optimal balance of miniaturization, low dynamic impedance, and automated assembly compatibility - making it the preferred choice for high-volume consumer and industrial PCBs where 0.65 mm pitch routing and 225 mW dissipation are design constraints.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of MMBZ5239BLT3G at 25°C?
The MMBZ5239BLT3G has a nominal Zener voltage of 9.1 V with a tolerance of ±5.5% (8.64 V to 9.56 V) at IZT = 20 mA and TA = 25°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official onsemi datasheet. This tolerance directly impacts accuracy in voltage-reference applications and must be accounted for in divider network design.
Does MMBZ5239BLT3G have a built-in ESD protection rating?
Yes, the MMBZ5239BLT3G is rated Class 3 per Human Body Model (HBM) with >16 kV ESD withstand capability. This is confirmed in the Features section of the datasheet and enables direct integration into ESD-sensitive interfaces like USB 2.0 data lines without additional protection components - a key advantage over generic Zener diodes.
What is the thermal resistance of MMBZ5239BLT3G on FR-5 board?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RJA) of MMBZ5239BLT3G is 556 °C/W when mounted on FR-5 board, as stated in the Maximum Ratings table. This value determines the allowable power dissipation at elevated ambient temperatures and must be used to calculate maximum junction temperature in thermal design reviews.
Can MMBZ5239BLT3G be used in automotive applications?
The standard MMBZ5239BLT3G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, its automotive-grade counterpart SZMMBZ5239BLT3G is explicitly qualified and PPAP-capable. For automotive use, engineers must specify the SZ-prefix version - the MMBZ5239BLT3G itself is intended for commercial and industrial applications per the datasheet scope.
What is the pin configuration and polarity marking for MMBZ5239BLT3G?
The MMBZ5239BLT3G uses Pin 1 = Anode, Pin 2 = No Connection, Pin 3 = Cathode, as defined in the Mechanical Characteristics section and confirmed in the SOT-23 Style 8 pinout diagram. The cathode is marked by a polarity band adjacent to Pin 3 - correct orientation is critical to ensure proper reverse-bias operation.
