Product details
Overview
MMSZ4702 from ON Semiconductor is a 15 V, 500 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOD-123 package, rated for 50 µA test current, with ±5% nominal voltage tolerance (14.25–15.75 V), 150 mV delta Zener voltage, and Class 3 HBM ESD rating (>16 kV). It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog and power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMSZ4702 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its 15 V nominal Zener voltage at 50 µA, 500 mW power dissipation on FR-4 board, 150 mV ∆VZ across 10–100 µA, 50 nA reverse leakage at 11.4 V, and SOD-123 footprint compatibility with mini-MELF layouts.
Technical Context
The MMSZ4702 operates as a two-terminal voltage-regulating diode optimized for stable DC reference generation and transient suppression in space-constrained PCBs. Its thermal resistance junction-to-ambient is 340 °C/W, and junction temperature range spans −55 to +150 °C - enabling use in industrial ambient environments without forced cooling.
Designed for surface-mount assembly, it features a cathode/anode pinout in the SOD-123 package (package code D6), with lead solder tolerance up to 260 °C for 10 seconds. Forward voltage is specified at 900 mV @ 10 mA, supporting bidirectional circuit verification during functional test.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584C15 | 15 V, 300 mW, SOD-523 package, ±5% tolerance, 100 nA IR @ 11.4 V | Lower power rating and smaller footprint limit use in higher-current clamping | Select when board area is constrained and 300 mW suffices |
| MM3Z15VT1G | 15 V, 200 mW, SOD-323 package, ±5% tolerance, 100 nA IR @ 11.4 V | Reduced power handling and higher thermal resistance restrict use in sustained regulation | Select for cost-sensitive consumer designs where 200 mW meets requirement |
Compared with BZX584C15 and MM3Z15VT1G, the MMSZ4702 delivers 67% higher power capability and lower ∆VZ in the same mini-MELF-compatible footprint - making it preferred for industrial signal conditioning and robust transient suppression where thermal margin and voltage stability are critical.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and test current for MMSZ4702?
The MMSZ4702 has a nominal Zener voltage of 15.0 V measured at a test current of 50 µA. Its guaranteed voltage range is 14.25 V to 15.75 V under those conditions, reflecting ±5% tolerance. This specification is verified per the official ON Semiconductor datasheet and applies directly to the MMSZ4702 part number in SOD-123 packaging.
Does MMSZ4702 have a defined forward voltage specification?
Yes, the MMSZ4702 specifies a forward voltage of 900 mV at 10 mA forward current. This parameter enables functional testing of diode polarity and conduction behavior during incoming inspection or board-level test. The forward voltage value is explicitly listed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the MMSZ4702 datasheet and applies to the exact MMSZ4702 device.
What is the maximum power dissipation rating for MMSZ4702 on standard PCB material?
The MMSZ4702 is rated for 500 mW total power dissipation at 25°C when mounted on FR-4 or FR-5 board. Power derating is 6.7 mW/°C above 25°C, resulting in zero dissipation at approximately 100°C ambient. This rating is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table for the MMSZ4702 and reflects real-world thermal performance on common PCB substrates.
How does the MMSZ4702 compare to mini-MELF glass Zeners in layout compatibility?
The MMSZ4702 uses the SOD-123 package, which shares identical land pattern dimensions with the glass mini-MELF (LL-34) package. This allows direct PCB footprint reuse without modification - a key design advantage documented in the MMSZ4702 General Description section. The MMSZ4702 thus offers improved manufacturability and moisture resistance over glass-bodied alternatives while maintaining layout compatibility.
What ESD protection level does MMSZ4702 meet, and how is it tested?
The MMSZ4702 meets Class 3 Human Body Model (HBM) ESD rating with >16 kV tolerance. This is verified per ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001 and is explicitly stated in the Features section of the MMSZ4702 datasheet. The rating applies to the packaged MMSZ4702 device and supports robust handling during automated assembly and field service without additional protection circuitry.
