Product details
Overview
SZMMBZ4252T1G from onsemi is a dual common-anode Zener diode array in SOT-23 package, designed for transient voltage suppression and ESD protection of two independent signal lines. It features 40 W peak pulse power (1 ms), 47 V nominal Zener breakdown voltage (±2% tolerance), clamping voltage of 43.1 V at 1.0 A peak pulse current, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive applications.
For engineers reviewing the SZMMBZ4252T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this device serves as a space-constrained bidirectional or unidirectional TVS solution for I/O line protection in automotive infotainment, industrial sensor interfaces, and USB/UART port hardening - with verified IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±30 kV contact) ESD immunity.
Technical Context
This dual-Zener device uses a monolithic silicon die with shared anode (Pin 3) and separate cathodes (Pins 1 and 2), enabling either two independent unidirectional clamps or a single bidirectional configuration across one pair of lines. Its thermal resistance is 417 °C/W on alumina substrate, supporting sustained operation up to +150 °C junction temperature.
The device operates under standardized 1.0 ms rectangular surge waveform (Figure 6), with clamping performance defined at 1.0 A peak pulse current and leakage <50 nA at 38 V working reverse voltage. Temperature coefficient of VBR is +0.74 mV/°C, ensuring stable voltage reference behavior over automotive temperature ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-Zener TVS applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SZMMBZ47VTALT1G | Same 47 V ±2% VBR, identical SOT-23 package and pinout, but marked with "T" suffix indicating tighter 2% tolerance grade | No functional difference - both qualified to AEC-Q101 and rated for 40 W peak power | Select SZMMBZ4252T1G when standard marking and logistics alignment with onsemi's SZ-prefix automotive portfolio are required |
| SZMMBZ47VALT1G | 47 V ±5% VBR tolerance, otherwise identical electrical specs and package | Lower precision makes it unsuitable for systems requiring tight clamping margin control near 3.3 V or 5 V rails | Choose SZMMBZ4252T1G where ±2% VBR is mandated for compliance with ISO 16750-2 pulse 4a or IEC 61000-4-5 waveform fidelity |
Compared with SZMMBZ47VALT1G (±5%) and SZMMBZ47VTALT1G (identical spec), SZMMBZ4252T1G provides guaranteed ±2% breakdown voltage tolerance and full traceability to onsemi's automotive change control process - essential for Tier 1 automotive BOM validation and PPAP submission.

FAQ
What is the exact Zener breakdown voltage specification for SZMMBZ4252T1G?
The SZMMBZ4252T1G has a nominal Zener breakdown voltage of 47 V with ±2% tolerance, measured at 1.0 mA test current (IT). This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official onsemi datasheet (Rev. 22, June 2026), under the 40 W "2% Tolerance" section for device marking "47T". The actual VBR range is therefore 46.06 V to 47.94 V at 25 °C ambient.
Is SZMMBZ4252T1G pin-compatible with other devices in the MMBZ/SZMMBZ series?
Yes, SZMMBZ4252T1G uses SOT-23 package Style 12 (Pin 1 = Cathode 1, Pin 2 = Cathode 2, Pin 3 = Common Anode), matching all MMBZxxxALT1G and SZMMBZxxxALT1G dual-Zener variants. This pinout is explicitly defined in the mechanical drawings on page 7 of the datasheet and validated across the entire family - enabling drop-in replacement within the same voltage grade and power rating.
Does SZMMBZ4252T1G support bidirectional transient suppression?
Yes, SZMMBZ4252T1G supports bidirectional operation when configured with Pins 1 and 2 connected to differential signal lines and Pin 3 tied to a mid-rail voltage (e.g., VCC/2). The dual common-anode structure allows symmetrical clamping in both polarities, as confirmed in Figure 6 and the "Typical Common Anode Applications" section (page 6) of the onsemi datasheet.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SZMMBZ4252T1G under surge conditions?
The maximum clamping voltage (VC) of SZMMBZ4252T1G is 43.1 V at 1.0 A peak pulse current (IPP), per the 40 W "2% Tolerance" table on page 3 of the datasheet. This value is measured using the standardized 1.0 ms rectangular waveform (Figure 6) and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected lines during transient events.
Is SZMMBZ4252T1G suitable for medical equipment applications?
Yes, SZMMBZ4252T1G meets key requirements for medical electronics: IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD immunity (±30 kV contact), UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, and low leakage (<50 nA at 38 V). Its AEC-Q101 qualification further validates robustness for safety-critical subsystems such as ECG and pulse oximeter data buses, provided system-level IEC 60601-1-2 testing is completed.
