Product details
Overview
SZBZX84C3V3ET1G from onsemi is a 3.3 V ±0.2 V Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 250 mW power dissipation at 25°C on FR-5 board, with 95 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current and 5 µA maximum reverse leakage at 1 V reverse voltage - used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in portable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the SZBZX84C3V3ET1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±0.2 V), thermal coefficient (−3.5 mV/°C), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), peak pulse power (225 W), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in silicon PN junction, with nominal Zener voltage of 3.3 V measured at IZT = 5 mA under 25°C ambient. Its temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C indicates decreasing voltage with rising temperature - critical for biasing circuits requiring stable reference across −65°C to +150°C junction range.
The SOT-23 package features cathode-indicated polarity band, void-free thermosetting plastic case rated UL 94 V-0, and 260°C soldering tolerance for 10 seconds. Pin 2 is internally unconnected, confirming true two-terminal operation without parasitic paths or control pins.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage | 3.1–3.5 V @ 5 mA - ensures ±0.2 V regulation window for 3.3 V rail clamping |
| Power Dissipation | 250 mW @ 25°C on FR-5 - defines max continuous DC power before thermal derating begins |
| Zener Impedance | 95 Ω @ 5 mA - limits output voltage variation under load current changes |
| Reverse Leakage | 5 µA @ 1 V - determines quiescent current draw in standby mode |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - protects against electrostatic discharge during handling and assembly |
| Peak Pulse Power | 225 W @ 8 × 20 µs - supports transient surge suppression per IEC 61000-4-5 |
| Junction Temp Range | −65°C to +150°C - enables operation in under-hood automotive and industrial environments |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (TO-236) surface-mount package: 2.90 mm × 1.30 mm × 1.00 mm body, 1.90 mm lead pitch, void-free thermosetting plastic case with corrosion-resistant finish and UL 94 V-0 flammability rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| 1 | Anode | Forward-biased terminal; connects to lower-potential node in reverse-bias regulation configuration |
| 2 | No Connection | Internally isolated; no electrical function - must remain unconnected on PCB |
| 3 | Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal; marked by polarity band; connects to higher-potential node for voltage clamping |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84C3V3ET1G | Non-automotive grade; lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and PPAP capability | Not approved for automotive production; suitable for consumer electronics only | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification requirements |
| MMSZ4685T1G | Same 3.3 V nominal Zener voltage but 350 mW power rating and 30 Ω impedance at 5 mA | Better regulation stability under high-current transients; larger thermal mass | Prefer where tighter voltage regulation and higher surge capacity are required despite larger footprint |
Compared with BZX84C3V3ET1G and MMSZ4685T1G, SZBZX84C3V3ET1G provides automotive-grade reliability and ESD robustness at the expense of slightly higher impedance, making it optimal for safety-critical embedded systems where qualification and long-term stability are prioritized over marginal regulation tightness.

The SZBZX84C3V3ET1G has a Zener voltage range of 3.1 V to 3.5 V at IZT = 5 mA and TA = 25°C, corresponding to a ±0.2 V absolute tolerance around the nominal 3.3 V rating. This specification is verified per onsemi's Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of the August 2024 datasheet revision, and applies strictly under the stated test conditions.
Is SZBZX84C3V3ET1G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SZBZX84C3V3ET1G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, with the "SZ" prefix explicitly indicating compliance for automotive and other applications requiring unique site and control change requirements. Its qualification covers temperature cycling, humidity testing, and mechanical shock per AEC-Q101 Rev D standards.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for SZBZX84C3V3ET1G on FR-5 board?
The thermal resistance junction-to-ambient (RJA) for SZBZX84C3V3ET1G is 500 °C/W when mounted on FR-5 board at TA = 25°C, with power derating of 2.0 mW/°C above that temperature. This value is specified in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of the official onsemi datasheet.
Does SZBZX84C3V3ET1G have a connected pin 2?
No, pin 2 of SZBZX84C3V3ET1G is internally unconnected (NC), as confirmed in the marking diagram and pinout definition on page 2 of the datasheet: "Pinout: 1-Anode, 2-No Connection, 3-Cathode". PCB layout must leave pin 2 floating with no trace or pad connection.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C3V3ET1G at 1 V reverse voltage?
The maximum reverse leakage current for SZBZX84C3V3ET1G is 5 µA at VR = 1 V and TA = 25°C, as listed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of the datasheet. This parameter directly impacts quiescent power consumption in always-on monitoring circuits.
