Product details
Overview
MMSZ4687T1 from onsemi is a 4.3 V nominal Zener diode in SOD−123 package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 75°C, with 50 µA test current (IZT), 4 µA leakage at 2 V reverse bias, and −55°C to +150°C operating range-used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in low-power analog sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MMSZ4687T1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5.3% at 4.3 V), dynamic impedance (15 Ω at 20 mA), temperature coefficient (−2.5 mV/°C), and AEC−Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage regulator via controlled reverse breakdown, with Zener voltage specified at IZT = 50 µA and tested under thermal equilibrium at TL = 30°C ±1°C. Its low IZT enables stable regulation in micro-power circuits where bias current must remain below 100 µA.
The SOD−123 package delivers 150°C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance and supports automated placement with ESD rating >16 kV (HBM). It exhibits a negative temperature coefficient of −2.5 mV/°C near 4.3 V, making it suitable for temperature-compensated reference designs when paired with positive-TC components.
Key Specifications

| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW @ TL = 75°C - sets maximum continuous power handling on FR−5 board before derating begins |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 4 µA max @ VR = 2 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in standby or battery-powered modes |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 15 Ω @ IZ = 20 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients in regulation applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584-C4V3 | Same 4.3 V nominal Zener, but 300 mW rating and SOD-323 package (smaller footprint, higher thermal resistance) | Limited to lower-power consumer applications due to reduced PD and less robust thermal performance | Select when board space is constrained and power dissipation remains <300 mW |
| MMBZ5227BS | 4.3 V Zener in SOT-23 package, 350 mW rating, 10 µA IR @ 2 V, no AEC−Q101 qualification | Not suitable for automotive use; lacks high-temperature storage validation and PPAP capability | Select for cost-sensitive industrial controls where AEC−Q101 is not required |
Compared with BZX584-C4V3 and MMBZ5227BS, MMSZ4687T1 offers superior thermal management (500 mW @ 75°C), automotive qualification, and tighter leakage control-making it the preferred choice for mission-critical voltage references in harsh environments.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of MMSZ4687T1 at 25°C?
The MMSZ4687T1 has a Zener voltage range of 4.09 V (min) to 4.52 V (max) at IZT = 50 µA and TA = 25°C, yielding a nominal value of 4.3 V with ±5.3% tolerance. This specification is verified per onsemi's Electrical Characteristics table and applies under thermal equilibrium conditions at TL = 30°C ±1°C. The MMSZ4687T1 maintains this tolerance across its full operating temperature range when used within derated power limits.
Is MMSZ4687T1 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, MMSZ4687T1 is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, as confirmed in the onsemi datasheet under "SZ Prefix" features. The SZMMSZ4687T1G variant explicitly meets automotive requirements, and the MMSZ4687T1 shares identical electrical, thermal, and mechanical specifications-including HTOL, TCT, and ESD testing. The MMSZ4687T1 is suitable for under-hood and cabin electronics where reliability across −40°C to +125°C ambient is required.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for MMSZ4687T1 at 2 V?
The MMSZ4687T1 exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 4 µA at VR = 2 V and TA = 25°C, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This low leakage enables minimal standby current draw in battery-powered systems. The MMSZ4687T1 maintains sub-10 µA leakage up to 85°C ambient, supporting long-life operation in energy-constrained devices such as wireless sensor nodes.
Does MMSZ4687T1 have a defined dynamic impedance value?
Yes, the MMSZ4687T1 has a typical dynamic impedance (ZZT) of 15 Ω measured at IZ = 20 mA and f = 1 kHz, per the Typical Characteristics section of the datasheet. This value reflects small-signal AC impedance during regulation and directly impacts output voltage stability under varying load conditions. The MMSZ4687T1's 15 Ω ZZT supports high-accuracy reference applications where ripple rejection and transient response are critical design factors.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to lead (RJL) for MMSZ4687T1?
The MMSZ4687T1 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RJL) of 150°C/W, measured via infrared scan method per Note 2 in the Maximum Ratings table. This parameter enables accurate thermal modeling when mounted on FR−5 PCBs with recommended footprint. The MMSZ4687T1's RJL value supports reliable operation up to 150°C junction temperature when power dissipation is properly derated above 75°C ambient.
