Product details
Overview
SZMM5Z5V1ST5G from onsemi is a 5.1 V ±2% tolerance Zener diode in SOD-523 package, rated for 500 mW steady-state power dissipation at 25 °C, with 60 Ω maximum Zener impedance at 5 mA test current and 2.0 µA reverse leakage at 3.8 V, used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in space-constrained portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZMM5Z5V1ST5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±2%), low-profile SOD-523 footprint (1.20 mm × 0.80 mm), AEC-Q101 qualification, 16 kV HBM ESD rating, and tight thermal coefficient (−2.7 mV/°C).
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference diode, conducting in reverse breakdown to clamp voltage at 4.98–5.20 V under 5 mA test current. Its 60 Ω dynamic impedance ensures stable regulation across load variations, while the −2.7 mV/°C temperature coefficient minimizes drift over −65 to +150 °C operating range.
Designed for surface-mount use on FR-4 PCBs, it delivers 500 mW power handling with 4.0 mW/°C derating above 25 °C and 250 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. The SOD-523 package supports reflow up to 260 °C and meets MSL 1 moisture sensitivity level.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584B5V1LT1G | Same 5.1 V ±2%, but SOD-323 package (1.7 mm × 1.3 mm); 100 mW lower power rating (400 mW) | Larger footprint; unsuitable where board area is constrained below 1.20 mm × 0.80 mm | Select only if existing layout accommodates SOD-323 and thermal margin permits 400 mW |
| MMSZ5231BT1G | 5.1 V ±5% tolerance; SOD-123 package (3.7 mm × 1.6 mm); 500 mW rating; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Loose tolerance increases reference uncertainty; larger size limits high-density placement | Acceptable for cost-sensitive industrial controls where ±5% regulation is sufficient and automotive compliance not required |
Compared with BZX584B5V1LT1G and MMSZ5231BT1G, SZMM5Z5V1ST5G offers superior space efficiency (SOD-523), tighter tolerance (±2%), and automotive qualification-making it optimal for next-gen portable and automotive electronics where footprint, accuracy, and reliability are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage range for SZMM5Z5V1ST5G?
The SZMM5Z5V1ST5G has a specified Zener voltage range of 4.98 V to 5.20 V at 5 mA test current, corresponding to a nominal 5.1 V with ±2% tolerance. This range is verified per onsemi's Electrical Characteristics table and defines the device's clamping behavior under standard operating conditions. The SZMM5Z5V1ST5G maintains this performance across its full operating temperature range of −65 °C to +150 °C.
Is SZMM5Z5V1ST5G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SZMM5Z5V1ST5G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, as explicitly stated in the onsemi datasheet. The "SZ" prefix denotes devices meeting automotive-specific site and control change requirements. It is suitable for under-hood and infotainment systems where reliability, traceability, and process validation are mandatory. The SZMM5Z5V1ST5G also features 16 kV HBM ESD rating and Pb-free RoHS compliance.
What is the maximum power dissipation of SZMM5Z5V1ST5G at 75 °C ambient?
At 75 °C ambient, SZMM5Z5V1ST5G dissipates a maximum of 300 mW. This is calculated using the 4.0 mW/°C derating factor from the datasheet: 500 mW − (75 − 25) × 4.0 mW = 300 mW. The device's thermal resistance is 250 °C/W, and its junction temperature must remain ≤150 °C. Derating applies to FR-4 boards with 1 cm² copper pad, as defined in Note 1 of the Maximum Ratings table.
Does SZMM5Z5V1ST5G have polarity marking on the SOD-523 package?
Yes, SZMM5Z5V1ST5G uses Style 1 marking per the onsemi mechanical drawing: Pin 1 (cathode) is identified by a polarity band. The marking diagram shows "XX M" where "XX" is the device code (TA for 5.1 V) and "M" is the date code. A microdot may also indicate the cathode end, though orientation varies by manufacturing location. This polarity marking ensures correct orientation during automated placement.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SZMM5V1ST5G at 3.8 V?
The reverse leakage current for SZMM5Z5V1ST5G is specified as 2.0 µA maximum at VR = 3.8 V and TA = 25 °C, per the Electrical Characteristics table. This parameter confirms the device remains effectively non-conductive below its Zener knee, minimizing standby power loss in always-on circuits. The SZMM5Z5V1ST5G achieves this while maintaining low dynamic impedance and tight voltage tolerance.
