Product details
Overview
MMSZ5252BS-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount 24 V Zener diode in SOD-323 package, rated for 200 mW power dissipation, with nominal Zener voltage 24 V (22.8–25.2 V at 5.2 mA), Zener impedance 33 Ω at test current, and reverse leakage ≤0.1 µA at 18 V, used for precision voltage regulation and reference in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMSZ5252BS-7-F datasheet, MMSZ5252BS-7-F pinout, MMSZ5252BS-7-F application, or MMSZ5252BS-7-F equivalent, key selection considerations include Zener voltage tolerance, dynamic impedance at operating current, thermal resistance (625 °C/W), and SOD-323 footprint compatibility in space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load or supply conditions. It features planar die construction for consistent parametric performance and low leakage, with specified test current of 5.2 mA and maximum Zener impedance of 33 Ω at that current.
Thermal derating begins above +25°C ambient, following a linear power derating curve down to zero dissipation at +150°C. Its SOD-323 package delivers compact mounting while maintaining 625 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard FR-4 board with recommended pad layout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 24 V nominal, 22.8–25.2 V range at IZT = 5.2 mA - defines regulation setpoint tolerance for feedback or reference use |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 200 mW at TA = +25°C - limits continuous current to ~8.3 mA at 24 V without derating |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 33 Ω at IZT = 5.2 mA - determines output voltage variation under small-signal load changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.1 µA at VR = 18 V - ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference nodes |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.9 V at IF = 10 mA - relevant for polarity verification and ESD protection path design |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 625 °C/W - requires careful layout to avoid exceeding 150°C junction temperature in enclosed environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD-323 - ultra-small plastic surface-mount case (2.3–2.7 mm length, 1.2–1.4 mm width, 0.25–0.35 mm thickness), cathode marked by band on top surface, compatible with automated pick-and-place and reflow soldering.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference ground | Connected to lower-potential node; forms reference return path in shunt regulator configuration |
| Cathode | Reverse breakdown terminal / regulated output node | Connected to input rail; clamps voltage to VZ when reverse biased above breakdown threshold |
Key Features

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-C24 | Same 24 V nominal Zener, but 300 mW rating and SOD-523 package; ZZT = 40 Ω at 5 mA | Higher power handling allows greater current margin; smaller SOD-523 footprint may complicate rework | Select when >200 mW dissipation headroom is required and board real estate permits tighter pitch placement |
| MMBZ5252BS | Identical electrical specs but in SOT-23 package; same 200 mW rating, 33 Ω ZZT, and 22.8–25.2 V range | Larger SOT-23 improves thermal relief and hand-solderability but occupies ~3× more PCB area | Prefer for prototyping, repair, or designs where thermal management outweighs size constraints |
Compared with BZX584-C24 and MMBZ5252BS, MMSZ5252BS-7-F offers optimal balance of miniaturization (SOD-323), certified green compliance, and proven stability in high-volume automated assembly-making it preferred for space-limited, RoHS-mandated production.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage this Zener can withstand before breakdown?
The MMSZ5252BS-7-F has a nominal Zener voltage of 24 V, with guaranteed breakdown occurring between 22.8 V and 25.2 V at 5.2 mA test current. It is not rated for sustained operation above 25.2 V in reverse bias; exceeding this risks thermal runaway if power dissipation exceeds 200 mW.
Can this device be used in series or parallel configurations?
Series connection is acceptable for higher voltage references, provided current matching and thermal coupling are managed. Parallel use is strongly discouraged due to mismatched Zener voltages causing current hogging-only identical lots with bin-matched VZ should be considered, and even then, derating by ≥30% is required.
Does the SOD-323 package support reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020?
Yes-the SOD-323 package is qualified for moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020D, meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ≤30°C/60% RH and processed using standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C) without baking or special handling.
How does temperature affect its Zener voltage stability?
This device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient near 24 V, with typical TC of +0.07%/°C. Over –65°C to +150°C, VZ shifts approximately ±1.2% from nominal-verified via characterization data in DS31038 Rev. 13, Figure 2.
