Product details
Overview
SZMM3Z43VT1G from onsemi is a 43 V, 300 mW Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD−323 package, designed for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in space-constrained circuits. It delivers ±7% nominal Zener voltage tolerance (40–46 V), 150 Ω dynamic impedance at 2 mA test current, and <0.05 µA leakage at 30.1 V reverse bias - enabling stable regulation in portable power rails and I/O clamping.
For engineers reviewing the SZMM3Z43VT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC−Q101 qualification, 16 kV HBM ESD rating, low 0.9 mm profile, and automotive-grade traceability - critical for battery management, sensor interface, and USB-C port protection designs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal, cathode-anode polarized silicon Zener diode optimized for stable reverse-breakdown regulation. Its 43 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 2 mA test current (IZT), with dynamic impedance (ZZT) of 150 Ω and knee impedance (ZZK) of 500 Ω at 0.5 mA, ensuring predictable clamping behavior across load transients.
Thermally, it features a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 416°C/W on FR-4 board, derating linearly at 2.4 mW/°C above 25°C ambient, and supports storage and operation from −65°C to +150°C - making it suitable for under-hood automotive modules and industrial edge sensors where thermal margin is constrained.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B43,115 | 43 V ±5%, 300 mW, SOD-323, but rated only to +150°C (no AEC-Q101) | Lacks automotive qualification and has higher leakage (0.1 µA @ 34.4 V) | Preferred for cost-sensitive consumer electronics where AEC-Q101 is not required |
| MMSZ43ET1G | 43 V ±5%, 500 mW, SOD-123, larger footprint (3.7 × 1.6 mm), same ESD rating | Higher power handling but incompatible PCB layout due to different package and pin spacing | Chosen when thermal margin exceeds 300 mW or legacy SOD-123 footprints are fixed |
Compared with BZX384-B43,115 and MMSZ43ET1G, SZMM3Z43VT1G uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, ultra-low leakage, and minimal 1.7 × 1.25 mm footprint - making it the optimal choice for next-generation automotive and space-constrained industrial designs requiring guaranteed reliability and density.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZMM3Z43VT1G?
The SZMM3Z43VT1G has a nominal Zener voltage of 43 V with a tolerance range of 40 V to 46 V (±7%) at IZT = 2 mA and TA = 25°C. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of the official datasheet. The device marking "21" corresponds to this 43 V variant, and the specification applies strictly under the stated test conditions.
Is SZMM3Z43VT1G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZMM3Z43VT1G is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, with an SZ prefix indicating compliance for automotive and other high-reliability applications. It operates across −65°C to +150°C, supports 16 kV HBM ESD, and is manufactured under controlled site and change management - fulfilling requirements for engine control, ADAS, and body electronics per onsemi's automotive qualification protocol.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for SZMM3Z43VT1G?
The maximum steady-state power dissipation for SZMM3Z43VT1G is 300 mW at TA = 25°C on an FR-4 board with a 1 cm² copper pad. Above 25°C, it derates linearly at 2.4 mW/°C, reaching zero dissipation at approximately 150°C ambient. This rating is defined in the Maximum Ratings table and validated per JEDEC JESD51-3 thermal test conditions.
Does SZMM3Z43VT1G have a Pb-free finish?
Yes, SZMM3Z43VT1G uses a Pb-free Sn-only plating on its leads, as explicitly stated in the Mechanical Characteristics section and ordering information. It complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and meets onsemi's Pb-free strategy, supporting lead-free reflow soldering profiles up to 260°C for 10 seconds without degradation.
How is polarity identified on the SZMM3Z43VT1G package?
Polarity on the SZMM3Z43VT1G is indicated by a cathode band located at terminal 1 (banded end) of the SOD−323 package. This matches the pin diagram in the datasheet's Device Marking Information section and is consistent across all MM3ZxxxT1G and SZMM3ZxxxT1G devices. Correct orientation is essential for proper reverse-bias operation during Zener regulation.
