Product details
Overview
MMBZ5241BS-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a dual isolated 11 V, 200 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOT-363 package, with nominal Zener voltage 11.0 V (min 10.45 V, max 11.55 V), test current 20 mA, and Zener impedance 22 Ω at IZT; used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in compact power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMBZ5241BS-7-F datasheet, MMBZ5241BS-7-F pinout, MMBZ5241BS-7-F application, or MMBZ5241BS-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), low dynamic impedance (22 Ω), dual-diode isolation, SOT-363 thermal performance (RθJA = 625 °C/W), and RoHS-compliant lead-free plating.
Technical Context
This device integrates two electrically isolated Zener diodes in a single ultra-small SOT-363 package, enabling dual-rail voltage clamping or bidirectional transient suppression without cross-coupling. Each diode operates independently with identical 11 V nominal breakdown and shares only mechanical mounting.
It employs planar die construction for stable voltage regulation under pulsed conditions (1 kHz AC impedance test), supports automated pick-and-place assembly, and maintains specified leakage (<2.0 μA at 8.4 V) and forward voltage (0.9 V @ 10 mA) across -65°C to +150°C operating range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 11.0 V nominal, 10.45–11.55 V range at 20 mA - ensures ±5% regulation accuracy for reference and clamp circuits |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 200 mW - limits continuous dissipation on FR4 PCB with recommended pad layout |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 22 Ω at 20 mA - determines output voltage stability under load variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤2.0 μA at 8.4 V - defines minimum standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.9 V at 10 mA - enables use as low-drop rectifier or logic-level clamp in signal paths |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 625 °C/W - sets junction temperature rise per milliwatt on standard FR4 board |
Pinout & Package
SOT-363 (SC-70-6) plastic surface-mount package with six terminals: two anodes (A1, A2), two cathodes (C1, C2), and two no-connect (NC) pins - provides dual independent Zener paths in 2.2 × 1.35 mm footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| C1 | Cathode of Zener 1 | Connected to regulated node for 11 V clamping; reverse-biased during operation |
| A1 | Anode of Zener 1 | Ground or low-side reference point for first Zener path |
| C2 | Cathode of Zener 2 | Independent clamping node for second rail or bidirectional protection |
| A2 | Anode of Zener 2 | Separate ground or return path - electrically isolated from A1 |
| NC | No Connect | Unbonded internal terminal; must remain unconnected in PCB layout |
| NC | No Connect | Unbonded internal terminal; must remain unconnected in PCB layout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual isolated Zener structure | Enables independent voltage regulation on two signal/power rails without shared current paths |
| Planar die construction | Delivers repeatable Zener voltage tolerance and low parameter drift over temperature |
| Lead-free / RoHS-compliant plating | Matte tin finish over Alloy 42 leadframe meets global environmental compliance requirements |
| Moisture sensitivity Level 1 | Eliminates need for dry-pack or baking prior to reflow soldering |

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-C11LT1G | Single 11 V Zener in SOT-23; no dual isolation; 30 Ω ZZT; 350 mW PD | Requires two devices for dual-rail use; higher impedance reduces regulation precision | Select when space allows separate placement and higher power margin is needed |
| MMBZ5241BT-7-F | Same electrical specs but in SOT-563 (5-pin); one NC pin omitted; identical Zener characteristics | Smaller footprint (1.6 × 1.2 mm) but reduced thermal mass and no dual-NC isolation | Select when board area is critical and dual-no-connect isolation is not required |
Compared with BZX84-C11LT1G and MMBZ5241BT-7-F, MMBZ5241BS-7-F uniquely delivers dual isolated 11 V regulation in minimal area with verified 22 Ω impedance and 200 mW derated power - essential for space-constrained, multi-rail protection designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for MMBZ5241BS-7-F at 8.4 V?
The maximum reverse leakage current is 2.0 μA at VR = 8.4 V, measured at TA = 25°C. This value ensures minimal standby current draw in high-impedance bias networks and contributes to low power consumption in battery-operated systems.
Can MMBZ5241BS-7-F be used for bidirectional ESD protection?
Yes - its dual isolated Zener structure allows one diode to clamp positive transients (cathode to signal, anode to GND) and the other to clamp negative transients (anode to signal, cathode to GND), forming a symmetrical 11 V clamping pair ideal for data line protection.
Is the SOT-363 package compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes - rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 means it can be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions and processed using standard Pb-free reflow profiles without pre-baking; the matte tin plating ensures reliable solder wetting per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
How does thermal resistance affect power handling on a typical PCB?
With RθJA = 625 °C/W, dissipating 200 mW raises junction temperature by 125°C above ambient. On FR4 with recommended pad layout, this limits safe continuous operation to ≤25°C ambient unless derated per Fig. 1 - confirming its suitability for pulsed or low-duty-cycle applications.
