Product details
Overview
SZMM3Z62VT1GX from Nexperia is a Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD323 (SC-76) package, rated for 62 V nominal Zener voltage (58.0–66.0 V), 300 mW total power dissipation, ≤0.05 Ω differential resistance at IZ = 2 mA, and AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive use. It provides stable voltage reference in low-power biasing, overvoltage protection, and precision clamping circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SZMM3Z62VT1GX datasheet, SZMM3Z62VT1GX pinout, SZMM3Z62VT1GX application, or SZMM3Z62VT1GX equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical characteristics, thermal behavior, junction-to-ambient resistance (415 K/W), cathode/anode terminal mapping, and automotive-grade reliability context - all critical for ESD-tolerant, space-constrained designs requiring ±5 % tolerance and low capacitance (35 pF).
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 62 V reference across load variations, with temperature coefficient of +0.4 to +3.7 mV/K at IZ = 2 mA. Its low 35 pF capacitance at 1 MHz and VR = 0 V supports high-frequency noise suppression without signal distortion.
The device sustains non-repetitive peak reverse power up to 40 W (tp = 100 µs, square wave) while limiting continuous dissipation to 300 mW at 25 °C ambient on FR4 PCB. Junction temperature remains within safe bounds (Tj ≤ 150 °C) under defined thermal resistance conditions (Rth(j-a) = 415 K/W, Rth(j-sp) = 110 K/W).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener voltage VZ | 58.0 V min to 66.0 V max at IZ = 2 mA - defines tight regulation window for 62 V reference applications |
| Differential resistance rdiff | ≤ 0.05 Ω at IZ = 2 mA - ensures minimal output voltage shift under load current variation |
| Total power dissipation Ptot | 300 mW at Tamb = 25 °C on FR4 PCB - sets maximum continuous DC power handling in standard layout |
| Reverse current IR | ≤ 450 µA at VR = 58 V - quantifies leakage before breakdown, critical for standby power integrity |
| Diode capacitance Cd | 35 pF at f = 1 MHz, VR = 0 V - enables effective high-frequency bypass without resonance issues |
| Thermal resistance Rth(j-a) | 415 K/W in free air - determines junction temperature rise per watt, guiding thermal derating above 25 °C |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Qualified for automotive discrete semiconductors - confirms reliability for under-hood and ADAS power rail protection |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD323 (SC-76), surface-mount plastic package with 2 leads; dimensions 1.8 mm × 1.35 mm × 0.95 mm (L × W × H); cathode marked by bar on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to regulated output node; marking bar identifies this terminal - essential for correct polarity in clamp/regulator configurations |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; reverse-biased operation requires anode at lower voltage than cathode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low differential resistance | 0.05 Ω at 2 mA - maintains <±10 mV output shift across ±1 mA load change, improving regulation accuracy |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q101 compliant - validated for temperature cycling, humidity, mechanical shock, and lifetime stress in automotive environments |
| Small footprint | SOD323 package (1.8 × 1.35 mm) - saves board area in dense layouts like infotainment power supplies and sensor interface modules |
| Low capacitance | 35 pF at 1 MHz - minimizes high-frequency signal coupling in RF-adjacent circuits such as CAN transceiver bias networks |
| Tight voltage tolerance | ±5 % nominal Zener voltage - reduces need for post-production trimming in factory-set reference circuits |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B62,115 (Nexperia) | SOD-323 package, same 62 V rating, but 300 mW Ptot, higher rdiff (0.1 Ω), no AEC-Q101 claim | General industrial use only; lacks automotive qualification and tighter rdiff | Select when AEC-Q101 is not required and cost sensitivity outweighs regulation precision |
| MMBZ5262B-7-F (Diodes Inc.) | SOT-23 package, 62 V, 350 mW Ptot, rdiff = 0.2 Ω, no AEC-Q101, larger footprint (2.9 × 1.3 mm) | Higher power handling but less precise regulation and no automotive validation | Choose for legacy SOT-23 board compatibility where thermal margin > regulation accuracy |
Compared with BZX384-B62 and MMBZ5262B, SZMM3Z62VT1GX offers superior regulation precision (0.05 Ω vs ≥0.1 Ω rdiff), guaranteed automotive qualification, and smallest footprint - making it optimal for new AEC-compliant designs where board space and voltage stability are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum non-repetitive peak reverse power the SZMM3Z62VT1GX can withstand?
The SZMM3Z62VT1GX sustains up to 40 W of non-repetitive peak reverse power under defined test conditions: 100 µs square-wave pulse, Tj = 25 °C prior to surge. This capability enables protection against short-duration transients like load dump in 24 V automotive systems without permanent damage.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over automotive temperature ranges?
At IZ = 2 mA, SZMM3Z62VT1GX exhibits a temperature coefficient of +0.4 to +3.7 mV/K. Over −40 °C to +125 °C, this results in a total VZ drift of approximately ±220 mV - well within its ±5 % initial tolerance band (±3.1 V), ensuring stable reference performance across full automotive ambient range.
Can SZMM3Z62VT1GX be used in parallel for higher power dissipation?
No - Zener diodes exhibit negative temperature coefficients below ~5 V and positive above, but even within the same series, minor VZ mismatches cause current hogging. The SZMM3Z62VT1GX is not characterized or recommended for parallel operation; instead, use a single higher-rated device or external current-sharing resistors if increased power handling is needed.
What is the significance of the 'DV' marking code on the SZMM3Z62VT1GX package?
The 'DV' marking code uniquely identifies the SZMM3Z62VT1GX variant within the SZMM3Z series, per Nexperia's official marking table. It appears as a laser-etched or molded identifier on the cathode-side surface of the SOD323 package and corresponds exclusively to the 62 V nominal Zener voltage type - enabling rapid visual verification during assembly and inspection.
