Product details
Overview
SZMM5Z33VT1G from onsemi is a 33 V, ±5% tolerance Zener diode in SOD-523 package, rated for 500 mW steady-state power dissipation at 25 °C, with 80 Ω maximum Zener impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.05 μA reverse leakage at 26.4 V, used for precision voltage clamping and overvoltage protection in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZMM5Z33VT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal derating above 25 °C, ESD robustness (Class 3, >16 kV HBM), junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (250 °C/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference diode, conducting in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 33 V regulation across load variations. Its 500 mW power rating and 250 °C/W thermal resistance define its safe operating area on FR-4 PCBs with 1 cm² copper pad.
The SZMM5Z33VT1G features a temperature coefficient of +23.2 mV/°C at IZT, enabling predictable voltage drift compensation in temperature-varying environments. It meets AEC-Q101 stress testing requirements and carries RoHS-compliant, matte tin lead finish with MSL 1 reflow compatibility up to 260 °C.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584-C33 | 33 V, ±5%, SOD-523, 300 mW rating, 90 Ω ZZT, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Limited to commercial-grade consumer electronics; not suitable for automotive or industrial temperature cycling | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification and higher power margin is unnecessary |
| MMSZ5260ET1G | 33 V, ±5%, SOD-123, 500 mW, 30 Ω ZZT, AEC-Q101 qualified, larger 3.5 mm × 1.6 mm footprint | Offers lower impedance but requires 3.5× more PCB area; better for high-current clamping with thermal margin | Choose when lower dynamic impedance is prioritized and board space permits SOD-123 layout |
Compared with BZX584-C33 and MMSZ5260ET1G, the SZMM5Z33VT1G uniquely balances AEC-Q101 compliance, miniature SOD-523 size, and 500 mW power in a single package-making it optimal for space-constrained automotive and portable designs where both reliability and footprint matter.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZMM5Z33VT1G?
The SZMM5Z33VT1G has a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 31.0 V and 35.0 V when tested at 5 mA (IZT) and 25 °C ambient temperature. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official onsemi datasheet.
Is SZMM5Z33VT1G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SZMM5Z33VT1G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, as explicitly stated in the "Specification Features" section of the onsemi datasheet. The "SZ" prefix denotes devices meeting automotive-specific site and process control requirements, making SZMM5Z33VT1G suitable for use in engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS subsystems.
What is the maximum power dissipation for SZMM5Z33VT1G at 85 °C ambient?
At 85 °C ambient temperature, SZMM5Z33VT1G's maximum power dissipation is 260 mW. This is calculated from its 500 mW rating at 25 °C, derated linearly at 4.0 mW/°C: 500 mW − (85 − 25) × 4.0 mW = 260 mW. Derating follows the curve shown in Figure 1 of the onsemi datasheet.
Does SZMM5Z33VT1G have ESD protection built-in?
Yes, SZMM5Z33VT1G is rated Class 3 for Human Body Model (HBM) ESD with >16 kV withstand capability, as specified in the "Specification Features" section. This eliminates the need for additional discrete ESD protection in many portable interface designs, reducing BOM count and board area.
What is the cathode marking convention for SZMM5Z33VT1G in SOD-523 package?
SZMM5Z33VT1G uses Style 1 marking per the mechanical drawing: Pin 1 (cathode) is identified by a polarity band at the banded end of the SOD-523 package. The anode (Pin 2) is the opposite, unmarked terminal. This matches the generic marking diagram on page 5 of the onsemi datasheet.
