Product details
Overview
MMSZ5263BT1 from ON Semiconductor is a 56 V ±5% Zener diode in SOD−123 package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation on FR−5 board at 75°C, with 2.2 mA test current (IZT), 1300 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 43 V (VR). It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog sensing and power rail regulation circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMSZ5263BT1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal derating behavior, cathode/anode terminal mapping, automotive-grade AEC−Q101 qualification status, and direct alternatives for voltage reference design validation.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for stable reverse-biased breakdown at nominal 56 V with ±5% tolerance. Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 340 °C/W, and it maintains specified Zener voltage under thermal equilibrium conditions at TL = 30°C ±1°C.
The MMSZ5263BT1 exhibits 150 Ω Zener impedance at IZK = 0.25 mA and supports ESD robustness >16 kV per Human Body Model. Its SOD−123 package enables high-density surface-mount assembly while meeting UL 94 V−0 flammability rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C56LT1G | Same 56 V ±5%, but SOT-23 package (higher RJA = 375 °C/W); 400 mW rating at 25°C | Lower power density; less suitable for sustained 2.2 mA operation above 70°C ambient | Select when board space allows larger footprint and thermal margin exceeds 500 mW requirement |
| MMSZ5263BT1G | Identical electrical specs and SOD−123 package; Pb−Free version with same marking "N3" and 3000/reel tape & reel packaging | No functional difference; fully interchangeable in new designs requiring RoHS compliance | Preferred for new production where Pb−Free compliance is mandatory per customer or regional regulation |
Compared with MMSZ5263BT1, BZX84-C56LT1G offers identical voltage regulation but reduced thermal performance in compact layouts, while MMSZ5263BT1G provides drop-in Pb−Free compliance without electrical or mechanical compromise.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the MMSZ5263BT1?
The MMSZ5263BT1 has a ±5% Zener voltage tolerance, meaning its reverse breakdown voltage ranges from 53.2 V to 58.8 V when measured at IZT = 2.2 mA and under thermal equilibrium conditions (TL = 30°C ±1°C). This tolerance is confirmed in the "5% TOLERANCE FG ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS" table on page 3 of the official ON Semiconductor datasheet for the MMSZ52xxxT1G Series.
Is the MMSZ5263BT1 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the MMSZ5263BT1 is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, making it suitable for automotive applications such as engine control unit (ECU) sensor biasing, infotainment power supervision, and body electronics voltage monitoring. Its guaranteed operation from −55°C to +150°C junction temperature and Class 3 ESD rating further support under-hood and cabin deployment.
What is the maximum power dissipation of the MMSZ5263BT1 at 100°C ambient?
At 100°C ambient, the MMSZ5263BT1 must be derated from its 500 mW rating at 75°C. With a derating factor of 6.7 mW/°C above 75°C, its maximum allowable power dissipation is 500 mW − (6.7 mW/°C × 25°C) = 332.5 mW. This value assumes mounting on FR−5 board with minimum recommended footprint per datasheet Note 1.
Does the MMSZ5263BT1 have a Pb−Free version?
Yes, the MMSZ5263BT1G is the Pb−Free, RoHS-compliant version of the MMSZ5263BT1, sharing identical electrical specifications, SOD−123 package, and marking code "N3". It is supplied in 3,000-unit tape-and-reel format and is functionally interchangeable in new designs requiring lead-free compliance.
How is polarity identified on the MMSZ5263BT1 package?
The MMSZ5263BT1 uses a cathode band to indicate polarity: the banded end is Pin 1 (Cathode), and the non-banded end is Pin 2 (Anode). This marking aligns with the SOD−123 mechanical drawing (Case 425−04) and is visible under standard optical inspection during PCB assembly.
