Product details
Overview
MMSZ5258BQ-13-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 36 V, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW surface-mount Zener diode in SOD-123 package, rated for 3.4 mA test current and 70 Ω dynamic impedance at 1 kHz, with 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 27 V, designed for precision voltage regulation and reference in automotive-grade power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMSZ5258BQ-13-F datasheet, MMSZ5258BQ-13-F pinout, MMSZ5258BQ-13-F application, or MMSZ5258BQ-13-F equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage stability over temperature (±0.08%/°C typical), AEC-Q101 qualification, SOD-123 thermal performance (RθJA = 338 °C/W), and automotive tape-and-reel packaging (10,000 pcs/reel).
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across load variations and supply fluctuations. Its 36 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZT = 3.4 mA with tight ±5% tolerance and low 70 Ω impedance at 1 kHz, enabling accurate regulation in feedback loops and reference rails.
Designed for automotive environments, it meets AEC-Q101 stress testing requirements and features halogen/antimony-free "Green" molding compound (UL 94V-0), matte tin-plated terminals, and moisture sensitivity level 1 - ensuring robustness in reflow-soldered automotive control modules and body electronics.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 36 V nominal, 34.2–37.8 V range at IZT = 3.4 mA - ensures precise voltage clamping in 3.3 V/5 V/12 V system rails. |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW @ TL = +75°C - supports continuous operation in thermally constrained PCB layouts with 1-inch copper pad. |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 70 Ω @ f = 1 kHz - minimizes output voltage variation under dynamic load transients in regulator feedback networks. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA @ VR = 27 V - guarantees low quiescent current draw in battery-backed or always-on monitoring circuits. |
| Temperature Coefficient | +0.08 %/°C typical - enables predictable drift compensation in temperature-critical sensor biasing and ADC reference applications. |
| Package | SOD-123 - compact 2.65 mm × 1.55 mm footprint compatible with high-density automotive PCB assembly and automated pick-and-place. |
Pinout & Package
Two-terminal device in SOD-123 plastic package with cathode band marking. Terminals are anode (unmarked end) and cathode (banded end); polarity must be observed for proper reverse-bias operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference node | Connected to lower-potential side of regulated rail; forms reference ground return path in shunt regulator topologies. |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / voltage clamp input | Connected to higher-potential node (e.g., supply rail or feedback divider tap); defines regulated output voltage point. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive under-hood and body control module use with extended temperature cycling and humidity testing. |
| Halogen- and antimony-free "Green" compound | Meets JESD22-A112 and RoHS 2 compliance with <900 ppm Br/Cl and <1000 ppm Sb - supports eco-design mandates. |
| Low thermal resistance | RθJA = 338 °C/W on FR-4 with 1-inch copper pad - enables reliable 500 mW dissipation without heatsinking. |
| Matte tin annealed terminals | Solderable per MIL-STD-202, Method 208 - ensures consistent wetting and joint integrity in lead-free reflow profiles. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C36LT1G | Same 36 V nominal, but ±6% tolerance and 90 Ω ZZT; SOT-23 package (larger footprint, higher RθJA). | Not AEC-Q101 qualified; suitable for commercial-grade consumer power supplies only. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification and thermal performance needs. |
| MMSZ5258B-13-F | Identical electrical specs and SOD-123 package, but commercial-grade (non-AEC-Q101) and halogen-containing molding compound. | Lacks automotive reliability validation; acceptable for industrial control panels with ambient TA ≤ +85°C. | Choose for non-automotive designs where RoHS compliance suffices and AEC-Q101 is not mandated. |
Compared with BZX84-C36LT1G and MMSZ5258B-13-F, MMSZ5258BQ-13-F delivers tighter voltage tolerance, lower impedance, and verified automotive reliability - making it the sole choice for ASIL-B–compatible systems requiring long-term parametric stability under thermal cycling.

FAQ
What is the maximum power dissipation of MMSZ5258BQ-13-F at +25°C ambient?
The device dissipates up to 370 mW at TA = +25°C when mounted on FR-4 PCB with 1-inch copper pad layout, per datasheet Note 5. Derating begins linearly above +25°C at 3.38 mW/°C, reaching 500 mW at TL = +75°C (lead temperature).
Is MMSZ5258BQ-13-F compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes - its matte tin-finished alloy 42 leadframe is fully compliant with IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity Level 1 and certified solderable per MIL-STD-202, Method 208, supporting peak reflow temperatures up to 260°C in standard Pb-free profiles.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over –40°C to +150°C?
With a typical TC of +0.08 %/°C, the Zener voltage shifts approximately ±8.6 mV/°C around 36 V. Over the full operating range, total drift is bounded by ±1.2 V - verified in Figure 6 of DS18010 Rev. 28 for MMSZ5258B-grade devices.
Can MMSZ5258BQ-13-F replace MMSZ5257B in existing designs?
No - MMSZ5257B is rated for 33 V (31.35–34.65 V), while MMSZ5258BQ-13-F is 36 V (34.2–37.8 V). Substitution would raise reference voltage by ~3 V, potentially exceeding downstream IC absolute maximum ratings or violating feedback loop setpoints.
