Product details
Overview
SZMM5Z2V4T5GF from Nexperia is a 2.4 V ±2 % tolerance Zener diode in SOD523 (SC-79) package, rated for 300 mW total power dissipation and 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power, with 50 Ω typical differential resistance at IZ = 5 mA and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the SZMM5Z2V4T5GF datasheet, SZMM5Z2V4T5GF pinout, SZMM5Z2V4T5GF application, or SZMM5Z2V4T5GF equivalent, this device serves as a precision low-voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in space-constrained automotive and industrial power rails where thermal performance and surge robustness are critical.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 2.4 V regulation across load and line variations, with a temperature coefficient of −3.5 to 0 mV/K ensuring minimal drift from 25 °C to 150 °C junction temperature. Its low 50 Ω differential resistance supports tight regulation under dynamic current changes up to 5 mA.
The device features ultra-small SOD523 packaging with cathode-marked anode-cathode polarity, optimized for reflow soldering on FR4 PCBs with ≥35 mm² copper area at the cathode tab, delivering Rth(j-a) = 350 K/W and Rth(j-sp) = 65 K/W for reliable thermal management in high-density layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener voltage VZ | 2.35 V to 2.45 V at IZ = 5 mA - defines precise regulation threshold for low-voltage biasing and reference circuits |
| Differential resistance rdiff | 50 Ω max at IZ = 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load current shifts |
| Total power dissipation Ptot | 300 mW at Tamb = 25 °C - sets continuous operating limit on standard FR4 PCB with 35 mm² Cu |
| Non-repetitive peak reverse power PZSM | 40 W for tp = 100 µs square wave - enables transient overvoltage clamping without failure |
| Forward voltage VF | 1.1 V max at IF = 100 mA - confirms low-loss forward conduction during reverse-biased operation |
| Reverse current IR | 400 µA max at VR = 1 V - quantifies leakage before breakdown, critical for standby power integrity |
| Temperature coefficient SZ | −3.5 to 0 mV/K - guarantees predictable VZ drift over full operating junction range (25–150 °C) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584C2V4 | Same 2.4 V ±2 %, but SOD323 package (1.7 × 1.3 mm); 500 mW Ptot; higher rdiff (100 Ω) | Larger footprint; better power handling but poorer regulation accuracy under load shift | Select when board space allows larger package and higher continuous power is needed over precision |
| MMSZ5221B | 2.4 V ±5 %; SOD123 package; 500 mW Ptot; rdiff = 100 Ω; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Lower cost, non-automotive grade; wider VZ spread reduces reference accuracy in precision systems | Choose for cost-driven consumer applications where ±5 % tolerance and non-automotive reliability are acceptable |
Compared with BZX584C2V4 and MMSZ5221B, SZMM5Z2V4T5GF delivers superior regulation accuracy (±2 %, 50 Ω rdiff) and automotive qualification in the smallest footprint (SOD523), making it optimal for space- and reliability-critical embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current this Zener can handle at 25 °C?
The device supports up to 200 mA forward current per limiting values, but for Zener operation, the maximum continuous reverse current is derived from its 300 mW power rating and 2.4 V nominal voltage - yielding ~125 mA at full regulation. Operation above this requires derating per thermal resistance data and PCB copper area.
How does the cathode marking align with the SOD523 package outline?
The cathode is marked by a visible bar on the top surface of the SOD523 package, positioned adjacent to Pin 1; the physical layout matches Nexperia's official outline drawing (sod523_po), where Pin 1 (cathode) is on the left when the marking bar faces upward and the device is viewed from above with leads pointing downward.
Is this Zener suitable for use in a 1.8 V logic rail clamp?
No - SZMM5Z2V4T5GF has a nominal Zener voltage of 2.4 V and begins regulating significantly only above ~2.2 V. For 1.8 V rail clamping, a lower-voltage Zener such as SZMM5Z1V8T5G (1.8 V ±2 %) is required; using this part would leave the rail unprotected below 2.2 V.
Does the 40 W surge rating apply to repetitive pulses?
No - the 40 W non-repetitive peak reverse power dissipation is defined for single 100 µs square-wave pulses at Tj = 25 °C prior to surge. Repetitive surges must comply with average power limits (≤300 mW) and thermal time constants; exceeding single-pulse ratings risks permanent junction damage.
