Product details
Overview
SZMMSZ10T1 from onsemi is a 10 V, ±5% tolerance Zener diode in SOD−123 package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 75°C ambient, with 20 Ω dynamic impedance at 5 mA test current and 0.2 μA reverse leakage at 7.6 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power DC rails, such as automotive sensor supply regulation.
For engineers reviewing the SZMMSZ10T1 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC−Q101 qualification, 16 kV HBM ESD rating, tight 10 V nominal Zener voltage tolerance, and thermal derating behavior above 75°C.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across load variations, with Zener voltage measured under 1 ms pulse conditions per JEDEC standards. Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 340°C/W, limiting continuous power handling in still-air environments.
The SOD−123 package supports automated placement and reflow soldering up to 260°C for 10 seconds, and polarity is marked by a cathode band. Temperature coefficient near 10 V is approximately +5.5 mV/°C, enabling predictable drift compensation in temperature-sensitive circuits.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ10T1G | No SZ prefix; commercial grade, not AEC−Q101 qualified; identical electrical specs and SOD−123 package | Not suitable for automotive production; acceptable for industrial prototypes and consumer designs | Select MMSZ10T1G when AEC−Q101 compliance is unnecessary and cost sensitivity is high |
| BZX84-C10 | SOT−23 package; 500 mW rating; ±5% tolerance; 20 Ω ZZT; but only qualified to AEC−Q200, not Q101 | Higher mounting height and different land pattern; requires PCB redesign | Choose BZX84-C10 only if SOT−23 footprint is already standardized and automotive qualification is not required |
Compared with MMSZ10T1G and BZX84-C10, SZMMSZ10T1 provides guaranteed AEC−Q101 qualification and automotive traceability without sacrificing electrical performance-making it the sole option for Tier 1 automotive supply chain compliance.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZMMSZ10T1?
The SZMMSZ10T1 has a nominal Zener voltage of 10 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, meaning the actual measured VZ falls between 9.50 V and 10.50 V at IZT = 5 mA and TA = 25°C. This tolerance is verified per JEDEC test conditions using 1 ms pulse width, ensuring consistency across production lots.
Is SZMMSZ10T1 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZMMSZ10T1 is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, making it suitable for automotive applications including engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS sensor modules. The "SZ" prefix explicitly denotes automotive-grade process control and site-specific change management per customer requirements.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for SZMMSZ10T1?
The maximum reverse leakage current for SZMMSZ10T1 is 0.2 μA at VR = 7.6 V and TA = 25°C. This low leakage ensures minimal power loss in battery-powered or always-on circuits, and remains stable across the full −55°C to +150°C operating junction temperature range.
Can SZMMSZ10T1 be used in place of MMSZ10T1G?
SZMMSZ10T1 can functionally replace MMSZ10T1G in most circuits, as both share identical electrical specifications, SOD−123 packaging, and Pb−free construction. However, SZMMSZ10T1 adds AEC−Q101 qualification and automotive traceability-so substitution should only occur when those requirements are needed.
What is the thermal resistance of SZMMSZ10T1?
The thermal resistance, junction-to-ambient (RJA), for SZMMSZ10T1 is 340°C/W when mounted on an FR−5 board. This value governs how much the junction temperature rises above ambient per milliwatt of dissipated power, directly impacting safe continuous power handling-especially above 75°C board temperature.
