Product details
Overview
MMSZ5249BT1 from ON Semiconductor is a 5% tolerance, 19 V nominal Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD−123 surface-mount package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation on FR−5 board at 75°C, with 6.6 mA test current (IZT), 23 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 14 V (VR). It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog circuits, power supply feedback loops, and ESD-protected sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MMSZ5249BT1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal derating behavior, SOD−123 terminal mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts for voltage regulation design-in.
Technical Context
The MMSZ5249BT1 operates as a silicon planar Zener diode, relying on controlled avalanche breakdown to maintain stable reverse-biased voltage regulation. Its 19 V nominal Zener voltage is specified under thermal equilibrium conditions (TL = 30°C ±1°C), with temperature coefficient optimized for minimal drift across −55°C to +150°C operating range.
It exhibits 23 Ω dynamic impedance at 6.6 mA test current and 600 Ω maximum impedance at knee current (IZK = 0.25 mA), enabling predictable regulation performance in low-current bias networks. The device features Class 3 ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM) and Pb−free construction compliant with AEC−Q101 for automotive applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 18.05–19.95 V @ IZT = 6.6 mA - defines stable regulation window for feedback or clamping |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW @ TL = 75°C - sets maximum continuous power handling on standard PCB |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 23 Ω @ IZT - determines output voltage variation under load current changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA @ VR = 14 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance (RJA) | 340 °C/W - indicates junction-to-ambient heat transfer efficiency on FR−5 board |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - provides robustness against electrostatic discharge during handling and assembly |
| Operating Temperature | −55°C to +150°C - supports deployment in industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
Pinout & Package

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-C19 | 19 V ±5%, 500 mW, SOD-323 package, 30 Ω ZZT @ 5 mA | Smaller footprint but higher dynamic impedance and lower surge rating | Preferred where board area is constrained and thermal margin allows reduced power derating |
| 1N4746A | 18 V ±5%, 1 W, DO-41 through-hole, 20 Ω ZZT @ 12.5 mA | Higher power rating but incompatible with SMT assembly and larger PCB footprint | Selected when legacy through-hole design or higher continuous power dissipation is required |
Compared with MMSZ5249BT1, BZX584-C19 offers space savings at the cost of higher impedance and lower surge capability, while 1N4746A provides greater power headroom but eliminates SMT compatibility-making MMSZ5249BT1 optimal for modern high-density, automotive-grade SMT designs requiring 19 V regulation.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and tolerance of the MMSZ5249BT1?
The MMSZ5249BT1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 19 V with a ±5% tolerance, meaning its actual regulation voltage falls between 18.05 V and 19.95 V when measured at 6.6 mA test current (IZT) under thermal equilibrium conditions (TL = 30°C ±1°C). This tolerance band is confirmed in the official ON Semiconductor datasheet revision 15, page 3, and applies specifically to the "B" suffix variant in the MMSZ52xxxT1G series.
What is the maximum power dissipation rating for MMSZ5249BT1 and how does it derate with temperature?
The MMSZ5249BT1 is rated for 500 mW total power dissipation on FR−5 board at TL = 75°C, with linear derating of 6.7 mW/°C above that temperature. Its thermal resistance junction-to-ambient (RJA) is 340 °C/W, meaning junction temperature rises significantly with ambient increase-requiring careful layout and thermal relief if operating near maximum ratings. This derating behavior is defined in the Maximum Ratings table on page 2 of the ON Semiconductor datasheet.
Does MMSZ5249BT1 meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, the MMSZ5249BT1 is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, as explicitly stated in the Features section of the ON Semiconductor datasheet. Devices marked with the "SZ" prefix (e.g., SZMMSZ5249BT1G) are designated for automotive applications, but the base MMSZ5249BT1 shares the same die, process, and qualification-making it suitable for automotive body electronics, infotainment power rails, and sensor interfaces requiring certified reliability.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for MMSZ5249BT1 and at what voltage is it measured?
The MMSZ5249BT1 specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.1 µA at VR = 14 V, as listed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the ON Semiconductor datasheet. This low leakage enables use in high-impedance bias networks and battery-powered monitoring circuits where quiescent current must be minimized-distinct from higher-leakage variants like the 1N4746A, which exhibits ~10 µA at similar reverse voltage.
How is the pinout configured for MMSZ5249BT1 in the SOD−123 package?
The MMSZ5249BT1 uses the standard SOD−123 two-terminal configuration: Pin 1 is the cathode (marked by a polarity band), and Pin 2 is the anode. In circuit operation, the cathode must be held at a higher potential than the anode to achieve reverse-biased Zener conduction. This pinout is confirmed in the Mechanical Characteristics diagram on page 2 and the Marking Diagram on page 1 of the ON Semiconductor datasheet.
