Product details
Overview
MMBZ5247BLT3 from onsemi is a 225 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 17 V nominal Zener voltage (16.15–17.85 V), 7.4 mA test current, and 600 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT. It provides precision voltage regulation in space-constrained applications such as portable power rails and voltage reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMBZ5247BLT3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (556 °C/W on FR-5), ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), leakage current (≤0.1 µA at 13 V), and SOT-23 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in silicon PN junction. Its Zener voltage exhibits a positive temperature coefficient near +17 V (≈+3.5 mV/°C), enabling stable regulation across −65°C to +150°C junction temperature range.
The SOT-23 package features a defined pinout (Pin 1: Anode, Pin 2: No Connection, Pin 3: Cathode) and supports automated placement. Thermal performance is specified for both FR-5 board (225 mW @ 25°C, derated 1.8 mW/°C) and alumina substrate (300 mW @ 25°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 16.15–17.85 V at IZT = 7.4 mA - defines regulated output voltage window under standard test conditions |
| Power Dissipation | 225 mW on FR-5 board @ 25°C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling in typical PCB environment |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 600 Ω max @ IZT = 7.4 mA - determines regulation stiffness and AC ripple rejection capability |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.1 µA @ VR = 13 V - ensures minimal standby current in undervoltage protection or biasing circuits |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) per HBM - guarantees robustness against electrostatic discharge during handling and assembly |
| Junction Temp Range | −65°C to +150°C - enables operation in automotive under-hood, industrial, and outdoor environments |
| Forward Voltage | ≤0.9 V @ IF = 10 mA - defines conduction drop when used in reverse-polarity protection or clamping |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (TO-236) package: 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm × 1.00 mm body, 1.90 mm lead pitch, Pb-free, RoHS-compliant, cathode indicated by band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | Connected to lower-potential node in reverse-biased Zener configuration; forward conduction path when polarity reversed |
| 2 | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or pad should tie to this terminal |
| 3 | Cathode | Connected to higher-potential node; Zener breakdown occurs between Pins 1 and 3 when cathode is biased positive relative to anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 225 mW Power Rating | Enables compact voltage regulation without heatsinking on standard FR-5 PCBs up to +85°C ambient |
| 17 V Nominal Zener Voltage | Targets mid-range supply rail stabilization (e.g., 15 V logic or analog subsystems) with ±5% tolerance |
| 600 Ω Dynamic Impedance | Provides predictable load regulation error of ≤4.4 mV per 2.65 mA load change near operating point |
| ESD Robustness >16 kV HBM | Eliminates need for external ESD protection in handheld and field-deployable equipment interfaces |
| Pb-Free / Halogen-Free | Meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) and global environmental compliance mandates |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C16LT1G | 16 V nominal Zener (15.2–16.8 V), 350 mW rating, 40 Ω ZZT, SOT-23 package | Lower voltage and tighter impedance suit precision 16 V references but lack MMBZ5247BLT3's 17 V headroom for 15 V rail margin | Select when tighter regulation (±3%) and lower dynamic impedance are prioritized over 17 V target voltage |
| SZMMBZ5247BLT3G | Identical electrical specs; AEC-Q101 qualified, PPAP-capable, automotive-grade traceability and screening | Required for automotive ECUs and safety-critical modules where qualification and lot traceability are mandatory | Choose for automotive designs needing certified reliability; otherwise MMBZ5247BLT3 suffices for commercial/industrial use |
Compared with BZX84-C16LT1G, MMBZ5247BLT3 offers higher Zener voltage and wider tolerance but lower impedance stability; compared with SZMMBZ5247BLT3G, it lacks automotive qualification yet matches all electrical and mechanical specs for non-automotive volume production.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of MMBZ5247BLT3?
The MMBZ5247BLT3 has a Zener voltage range of 16.15 V to 17.85 V at IZT = 7.4 mA, corresponding to a ±5% tolerance around the nominal 17 V rating. This tolerance is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range (−65°C to +150°C) and is verified per onsemi's production test flow. The MMBZ5247BLT3 datasheet specifies this range in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3.
Does MMBZ5247BLT3 have a no-connect pin, and how must it be handled on PCB?
Yes, MMBZ5247BLT3 has Pin 2 designated as "No Connection" per the official marking diagram and mechanical outline (Style 8). This terminal is internally unconnected and must remain electrically floating - no PCB trace, copper pour, or solder mask opening should contact Pin 2. Improper connection risks shorting adjacent traces or compromising thermal performance in the SOT-23 footprint.
What is the maximum power dissipation of MMBZ5247BLT3 on a standard FR-5 PCB?
The MMBZ5247BLT3 is rated for 225 mW total power dissipation on FR-5 board at 25°C ambient, with linear derating of 1.8 mW/°C above that temperature. At 85°C ambient, its usable power drops to 117 mW. This rating assumes standard JEDEC-defined board layout (1.0 × 0.75 × 0.62 in.) and is validated per onsemi's thermal characterization methodology in the Maximum Ratings table.
Is MMBZ5247BLT3 suitable for automotive applications?
The standard MMBZ5247BLT3 is not AEC-Q101 qualified. For automotive use, the SZMMBZ5247BLT3G variant - identical in all electrical and mechanical specifications but with automotive-grade screening, PPAP documentation, and enhanced traceability - must be selected. The MMBZ5247BLT3 datasheet explicitly states that "SZ prefix" devices meet AEC-Q101 requirements, while non-SZ parts are intended for commercial/industrial use.
How does the temperature coefficient of MMBZ5247BLT3 affect its regulation accuracy?
The MMBZ5247BLT3 exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of approximately +3.5 mV/°C near its 17 V nominal Zener voltage, as shown in Figure 1 of the datasheet. Over a −40°C to +125°C ambient range, this results in a total Zener voltage shift of about ±560 mV. Designers must account for this drift in precision reference applications; for example, a 17 V reference may vary from 16.44 V to 17.56 V across that range, directly impacting ADC accuracy or comparator thresholds.
