Product details
Overview
SZMM5Z4V3T1G from onsemi is a 4.3 V ±5% Zener diode in SOD-523 package, rated for 500 mW steady-state power dissipation at 25 °C, with 90 Ω max Zener impedance at 5 mA test current and 3 μA max reverse leakage at 3.3 V, used for precision voltage clamping in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZMM5Z4V3T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (250 °C/W), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), AEC-Q101 qualification, and SOD-523 footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference and transient clamp, leveraging silicon PN junction breakdown at precisely controlled reverse bias. Its 4.3 V nominal Zener voltage is stabilized by process-controlled doping and metallization, with temperature coefficient of −3.5 mV/°C ensuring predictable drift over −65 °C to +150 °C operating range.
The SOD-523 package enables surface-mount integration with minimal board area (1.20 mm × 0.80 mm) and low profile (0.7 mm height), while its 100% matte tin lead finish supports lead-free reflow up to 260 °C and meets MSL 1 moisture sensitivity requirements.
