Product details
Overview
SZMMBZ5236BLT1G from onsemi is a 7.5 V ±5% Zener diode in SOT-23 package, rated for 225 mW power dissipation on FR-5 board, with 6 Ω dynamic impedance at 20 mA test current and 3 μA leakage current at 6 V reverse bias. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the SZMMBZ5236BLT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (556 °C/W), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), AEC-Q101 qualification, and SOT-23 footprint compatibility for high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage regulator using avalanche breakdown in silicon PN junction. Its nominal 7.5 V Zener voltage exhibits a positive temperature coefficient near zero crossing, minimizing drift across −55°C to +150°C ambient range.
The SOT-23 package features Pin 1 (Anode), Pin 2 (No Connection), and Pin 3 (Cathode), with cathode polarity indicated by a band. Thermal performance is specified for both FR-5 board (225 mW @ 25°C) and alumina substrate (300 mW @ 25°C), supporting flexible thermal design.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C7V5LT1G | Same 7.5 V nominal, but 350 mW rating and 15 Ω ZZT; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Higher power handling, less precise regulation; suited for non-automotive consumer boards | Select when higher PD is needed and automotive qualification is unnecessary |
| SZBZX84C7V5LT1G | 7.5 V nominal, AEC-Q101 qualified, 350 mW rating, 15 Ω ZZT, SOT-23 package | Higher power and same automotive grade, but looser impedance spec impacts regulation accuracy | Choose for automotive use requiring >225 mW dissipation where 15 Ω ZZT is acceptable |
Compared with SZMMBZ5236BLT1G, BZX84-C7V5LT1G offers higher power but lacks automotive qualification and has higher impedance, while SZBZX84C7V5LT1G matches AEC-Q101 compliance but trades regulation precision for increased power capability-making SZMMBZ5236BLT1G optimal for space- and accuracy-constrained automotive and portable designs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZMMBZ5236BLT1G?
The SZMMBZ5236BLT1G has a Zener voltage range of 7.12 V to 7.88 V at 20 mA test current, corresponding to a ±5% tolerance around the nominal 7.5 V value. This tolerance is guaranteed across operating temperatures and ensures consistent regulation performance in production designs using SZMMBZ5236BLT1G.
Is SZMMBZ5236BLT1G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZMMBZ5236BLT1G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, with manufacturing controlled to meet automotive reliability standards. Its −65°C to +150°C junction temperature range, ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), and Pb-free/halogen-free construction make it appropriate for under-hood and cabin electronics where SZMMBZ5236BLT1G is deployed as a voltage reference or clamp.
What is the thermal resistance of SZMMBZ5236BLT1G on standard PCB?
SZMMBZ5236BLT1G has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RJA) of 556 °C/W when mounted on an FR-5 board. This value determines the temperature rise above ambient per milliwatt of power dissipated and is critical for thermal design when operating SZMMBZ5236BLT1G near its 225 mW rating.
Does SZMMBZ5236BLT1G have a no-connect pin, and how should it be handled?
Yes, SZMMBZ5236BLT1G uses the SOT-23 Style 8 pinout: Pin 1 is Anode, Pin 2 is No Connection (NC), and Pin 3 is Cathode. Pin 2 must remain unconnected on the PCB layout-no trace, pad, or via should be attached to it, as internal connection is absent and routing to it may compromise reliability of SZMMBZ5236BLT1G.
How does the ESD rating of SZMMBZ5236BLT1G impact system-level design?
SZMMBZ5236BLT1G carries Class 3 Human Body Model ESD rating (>16 kV), meaning it can withstand electrostatic discharges common during handling and assembly without degradation. This reduces need for external ESD protection in front-end circuits and simplifies layout where SZMMBZ5236BLT1G is used for I/O line clamping or supply rail stabilization.
