Product details
Overview
MMSZ33T3G from onsemi is a 33 V ±5% Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD−123 surface-mount package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 75°C on FR−5 board, with 80 Ω maximum dynamic impedance at 2 mA test current and 0.05 µA reverse leakage at 23.1 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog sensing and power rail stabilization circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMSZ33T3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 33 V nominal Zener voltage with ±5% tolerance, 80 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT = 2 mA, Class 3 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), AEC−Q101 qualification, and Pb−Free SOD−123 packaging compatible with automated assembly.
Technical Context
The MMSZ33T3G operates as a two-terminal silicon Zener diode, conducting in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across its terminals when biased above VZ. Its Zener voltage is specified at 33 V (min 31.35 V, max 34.65 V) with 5% tolerance, measured under 1 ms pulse width at IZT = 2 mA. Temperature coefficient is positive and increases with nominal VZ, consistent with devices above ~6 V.
Thermal performance is defined by RJA = 340 °C/W and RJL = 150 °C/W, enabling operation from −55°C to +150°C junction temperature. The device exhibits 0.05 µA reverse leakage at VR = 23.1 V and forward voltage ≤0.9 V at IF = 10 mA, supporting bidirectional signal conditioning where needed.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B33,115 | Same 33 V ±5% VZ, but 300 mW rating and SOD-323 package (smaller footprint, lower power handling) | Preferred for ultra-compact layouts where 300 mW suffices; not suitable for sustained 500 mW dissipation | Select BZX384-B33,115 only if board area is critical and thermal budget allows reduced power rating |
| SZMMBZ33VALT1G | Same 33 V ±5% VZ, 500 mW rating, but SOT-23 package (3-pin, anode/cathode/anode) and dual-anode configuration | Offers dual-Zener topology for bidirectional clamping; requires different PCB layout and routing | Choose SZMMBZ33VALT1G only when symmetrical transient suppression (e.g., RS-485 bus) is required |
Compared with BZX384-B33,115 and SZMMBZ33VALT1G, the MMSZ33T3G provides the optimal balance of 500 mW power handling, SOD−123 manufacturability, and single-diode simplicity for unidirectional voltage reference and clamp functions in automotive and industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the MMSZ33T3G?
The MMSZ33T3G has a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, resulting in a guaranteed range of 31.35 V to 34.65 V at IZT = 2 mA and TA = 25°C. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official datasheet and applies across the full operating temperature range.
Is the MMSZ33T3G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the MMSZ33T3G is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, making it suitable for automotive applications including body electronics, infotainment power supplies, and sensor interface protection. Its SOD−123 package, Class 3 ESD rating, and −55°C to +150°C junction temperature range meet stringent automotive reliability requirements.
What is the maximum power dissipation of the MMSZ33T3G and how does it derate with temperature?
The MMSZ33T3G is rated for 500 mW total power dissipation on FR−5 board at lead temperature (TL) = 75°C. Above 75°C, it derates linearly at 6.7 mW/°C. This derating curve is defined in the Maximum Ratings table and must be applied in thermal design to ensure junction temperature remains within −55°C to +150°C limits.
Does the MMSZ33T3G have a Pb−Free package?
Yes, the "T3G" suffix in MMSZ33T3G explicitly denotes a Pb−Free SOD−123 package compliant with RoHS and ELV directives. The datasheet confirms Pb−Free construction in the Ordering Information section and references the ON Semiconductor Soldering and Mounting Techniques Reference Manual for reflow profile guidance.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the MMSZ33T3G?
The MMSZ33T3G specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.05 µA at VR = 23.1 V and TA = 25°C. This value is listed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 and reflects the device's ability to minimize standby current in high-impedance reference or bias networks.
