Product details
Overview
SZ1SMB5922BT3G from onsemi is a 3 W surface-mount Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 7.5 V (±5%), 50 Ω dynamic impedance at 3 mA test current, and 6 A maximum DC Zener current. It provides precise voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and reference voltage generation for industrial power converters and automotive control modules.
For engineers reviewing the SZ1SMB5922BT3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 7.5 V regulation tolerance, 3 W steady-state power dissipation at 75°C lead temperature, AEC−Q101 qualification for automotive use, and SMB package compatibility with standard reflow profiles.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in silicon PN junction. Its thermal resistance from junction-to-lead is 40 °C/W, enabling stable regulation under pulsed load conditions when mounted on copper pads per recommended footprint. The cathode polarity band ensures unambiguous orientation during automated placement.
The 7.5 V nominal Zener voltage exhibits a positive temperature coefficient above ~5 V, with typical θVZ ≈ +3.5 mV/°C near this rating. Its ESD rating exceeds 16 kV (HBM Class 3), supporting robust operation in noisy automotive environments without external transient suppression.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 7.12–7.88 V @ IZT = 3 mA - defines regulated output range under nominal bias |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 3.0 W @ TL = 75°C - maximum continuous power at lead temperature, derates 25 mW/°C above 75°C |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 50 Ω @ IZT = 3 mA - low dynamic impedance ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Max DC Zener Current (IZM) | 200 A - sets absolute upper limit for sustained reverse conduction without thermal runaway |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 0.5 μA @ VR = 6 V - guarantees negligible standby current in undervoltage detection circuits |
| Thermal Resistance (RJL) | 40 °C/W - enables direct thermal coupling to PCB copper for effective heat extraction |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - eliminates need for external ESD protection in board-level designs |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (Case 403A), surface-mount plastic package with modified L-bend leads, cathode indicated by polarity band. Dimensions: 3.56 mm × 4.32 mm × 1.02 mm (L × W × H), UL 94 V-0 flammability rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference | Connected to circuit ground or lower potential node; reverse bias applied between cathode and anode to activate regulation |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / regulated output node | Connected to voltage rail requiring stabilization; polarity band identifies this terminal for correct PCB orientation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ5232BT1G | Same 7.5 V nominal rating but 500 mW power rating (SOD-123); ZZT = 30 Ω @ 20 mA | Lower power handling limits use to low-current references (<100 mA), not clamping or high-current regulation | Select when board space is constrained and thermal budget permits lower dissipation |
| BZX84-C7V5 | 7.5 V ±5%, 300 mW (SOT-23); ZZT = 30 Ω @ 5 mA; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Not qualified for automotive; unsuitable for under-hood or safety-critical modules | Choose only for cost-sensitive consumer-grade non-automotive applications with light loads |
Compared with MMSZ5232BT1G and BZX84-C7V5, SZ1SMB5922BT3G delivers 6× higher power capability and automotive qualification-enabling single-device solutions for 12 V rail protection and industrial feedback where reliability and thermal margin are critical.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZ1SMB5922BT3G?
The SZ1SMB5922BT3G has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% around its nominal 7.5 V rating, resulting in a guaranteed range of 7.12 V to 7.88 V at 3 mA test current (IZT). This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the onsemi datasheet and applies across the full operating temperature range of −65°C to +150°C.
Is SZ1SMB5922BT3G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZ1SMB5922BT3G is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, making it suitable for automotive applications including engine control units, body electronics, and infotainment systems. The "SZ" prefix explicitly denotes compliance with automotive site and control change requirements, and the device meets stringent reliability and stress testing standards defined in the AEC−Q101 specification.
What is the maximum power dissipation for SZ1SMB5922BT3G at ambient temperature?
SZ1SMB5922BT3G dissipates up to 550 mW at TA = 25°C, with thermal resistance RJA = 226 °C/W. Power must be derated linearly above 25°C at 4.4 mW/°C. For higher-power operation, mounting on a thermally enhanced pad improves performance-its 3.0 W rating applies only when lead temperature (TL) is maintained at 75°C with proper PCB copper area.
How does the ESD rating of SZ1SMB5922BT3G impact system design?
SZ1SMB5922BT3G features Class 3 ESD protection (>16 kV per Human Body Model), allowing direct integration into exposed interfaces without additional ESD suppressors. This simplifies layout, reduces BOM count, and improves reliability in automotive and industrial environments where electrostatic discharge events are common-verified per JEDEC JS-001 test methodology.
What package type does SZ1SMB5922BT3G use, and what are its key mechanical features?
SZ1SMB5922BT3G uses the SMB (Case 403A) surface-mount package: 3.56 mm × 4.32 mm × 1.02 mm, with modified L-bend leads for increased solder joint area and void-free transfer-molded plastic construction. Its flat handling surface ensures placement accuracy, and polarity band marking prevents orientation errors during assembly-fully compliant with IPC-7351B footprint standards.
