Product details
Overview
SZMM5Z3V3T5G from onsemi is a 3.3 V ±5% Zener diode in SOD-523 package, rated for 500 mW steady-state power dissipation at 25 °C, with 95 Ω max Zener impedance at 5 mA test current and <5 µA reverse leakage at 1 V, used for precision voltage clamping and ESD protection in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZMM5Z3V3T5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (250 °C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification, 16 kV HBM ESD rating, and SOD-523 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference and transient suppressor, leveraging silicon PN junction Zener breakdown at 3.3 V nominal. Its low 0.7 mm body height and 1.20 mm × 0.80 mm outline enable integration into ultra-thin mobile handsets and wearable sensors where board area is constrained.
The SZ prefix confirms automotive-grade traceability, PPAP capability, and AEC-Q101 qualification-critical for under-hood and infotainment subsystems. Its 100% matte tin lead finish supports lead-free reflow up to 260 °C and meets MSL 1 moisture sensitivity requirements.
Key Specifications

| Zener Voltage | 3.3 V nominal, 3.1–3.5 V range at 5 mA - ensures stable clamping within ±5% tolerance for 3.3 V rail protection |
| Power Rating | 500 mW at 25 °C, derated 4.0 mW/°C above - defines maximum continuous dissipation on FR-4 board |
| Zener Impedance | 95 Ω max at IZT = 5 mA - determines regulation stiffness and AC ripple suppression capability |
| Reverse Leakage | ≤5 µA at VR = 1 V - minimizes standby current in battery-powered systems |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) per HBM - provides robust electrostatic discharge immunity without external TVS |
| Thermal Resistance | 250 °C/W junction-to-ambient - sets temperature rise under load; requires thermal pad design for sustained power |
| Package | SOD-523 (Case 502) - 1.20 mm × 0.80 mm × 0.70 mm footprint ideal for 0201-class layout density |

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-C3V3 | 3.3 V ±5%, SOD-523, 300 mW rating, 120 Ω Zz - lower power and higher impedance than SZMM5Z3V3T5G | Not AEC-Q101 qualified; limited to consumer portables, not automotive | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance and 500 mW headroom |
| MMSZ5226BT1G | 3.3 V ±5%, SOD-123, 500 mW, 28 Ω Zz - same power but larger 2.7 mm × 1.6 mm footprint and lower impedance | Higher thermal mass but incompatible with 0201-class density constraints | Select when board space allows larger package and tighter regulation (28 Ω vs. 95 Ω) is prioritized |
Compared with BZX584-C3V3 and MMSZ5226BT1G, the SZMM5Z3V3T5G uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 500 mW rating, and minimal 1.20 mm × 0.80 mm SOD-523 footprint-making it optimal for automotive and ultra-dense portable designs where both reliability and size are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZMM5Z3V3T5G?
The SZMM5Z3V3T5G has a nominal Zener voltage of 3.3 V with a tolerance of ±5%, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 3.1 V and 3.5 V when tested at 5 mA (IZT). This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the onsemi datasheet, and applies under standard 25 °C ambient conditions.
Is SZMM5Z3V3T5G qualified for automotive use?
Yes, SZMM5Z3V3T5G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, as explicitly stated in the datasheet's Specification Features section. The "SZ" prefix denotes automotive-grade traceability, process control, and stress testing-making SZMM5Z3V3T5G suitable for under-hood and cabin electronics where reliability across extended temperature ranges is required.
What is the maximum power dissipation of SZMM5Z3V3T5G at 85 °C ambient?
At 85 °C ambient, SZMM5Z3V3T5G's maximum power dissipation is 260 mW. This is calculated from its 500 mW rating at 25 °C and 4.0 mW/°C linear derating: 500 mW − (85 − 25) × 4.0 mW = 260 mW. Derating follows the curve in Figure 1 of the datasheet and assumes mounting on an FR-4 board with 1 cm² copper pad.
Does SZMM5Z3V3T5G have a defined polarity marking?
Yes, SZMM5Z3V3T5G uses Style 1 marking per the Mechanical Case Outline diagram: Pin 1 (cathode) is identified by a polarity band on the SOD-523 package body. The datasheet specifies "PIN 1. CATHODE (POLARITY BAND)" and shows the band adjacent to terminal 1 in the generic marking diagram on page 1 of the mechanical drawing.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SZMM5Z3V3T5G?
SZMM5Z3V3T5G exhibits ≤5 µA reverse leakage current (IR) at VR = 1 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the onsemi datasheet. This low leakage supports battery-sensitive applications such as wearables and always-on sensors where standby current must be minimized.
