Product details
Overview
NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G from onsemi is a tight-tolerance Zener diode voltage regulator in X2DFNW2 (0402) wettable flank package, delivering 2.85 V to 3.15 V reverse breakdown at 5 mA test current, with 100 Ω max dynamic impedance and 10 nA leakage at 1 V reverse bias. It provides precision voltage clamping for ESD-sensitive signal lines in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include ±1.5% Zener voltage tolerance, 250 mW power dissipation on FR-4 (1 oz Cu, min pad), 0.40 mm body height, AEC-Q101 qualification status, and wettable flank geometry for AOI compatibility.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional shunt voltage regulator, conducting in reverse bias above its specified Zener voltage while blocking below it. Its low 0.40 mm profile and wettable flank terminations support high-density PCB layouts and automated optical inspection in automotive and portable applications.
The NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G exhibits a nominal temperature coefficient near 0 mV/°C for VZ ≤ 3.3 V, minimizing drift across −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range. It maintains stable regulation under transient conditions with 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power capability at 100 µs pulse width.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G?
The NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G has a guaranteed Zener voltage range of 2.85 V to 3.15 V at 5 mA test current, corresponding to ±1.5% tolerance. This tight specification is confirmed in the "Tight Tolerance Series" table on page 3 of the official onsemi datasheet, distinguishing it from the ±5% standard series (NZ8FxxxMX2WT5G).
Is NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G qualified for automotive use?
Yes - NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable when ordered with the SZ prefix (e.g., SZNZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G). The base part NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G shares identical electrical and mechanical specifications and is manufactured on the same qualified process flow, enabling drop-in use in automotive designs pending customer-specific PPAP submission.
What does the "SMX2WT5G" suffix indicate in NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G?
In NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G, "S" denotes tight tolerance (±1.5%), "MX2W" identifies the X2DFNW2 package, "T5G" specifies tape-and-reel packaging (8,000 units per reel), and "G" confirms Pb-free/RoHS compliance. This full suffix is defined in the Ordering Information section on page 1 of the onsemi datasheet.
Can NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G replace NZ8F3V0MX2WT5G in existing designs?
Yes - NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G can directly replace NZ8F3V0MX2WT5G where tighter voltage regulation is needed, as both share identical package (X2DFNW2), pinout, thermal characteristics, and maximum ratings. The only difference is improved Zener tolerance (±1.5% vs. ±5%), with no layout or schematic changes required.
What is the maximum allowable reverse voltage before conduction in NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G?
The NZ8F3V0SMX2WT5G begins significant reverse conduction at its specified Zener voltage (2.85–3.15 V). Below 1 V reverse bias, leakage remains ≤10 nA. The device is not designed for blocking above its rated Zener voltage - sustained operation above 3.15 V will cause regulated conduction, not breakdown failure, per its intended shunt regulator function.
