Product details
Overview
SZMMSZ36T1G from onsemi is a 36 V ±5% Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD−123 package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 75°C ambient, with 90 Ω maximum dynamic impedance at 2 mA test current and 0.05 μA reverse leakage at 25.2 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in automotive power rails and industrial sensor signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SZMMSZ36T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC−Q101 qualification, ±5% VZ tolerance, 150°C junction temperature rating, and ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), critical for under-hood automotive modules and high-reliability industrial control inputs.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 36 V regulation across load and line variations, with thermal resistance of 340°C/W (junction-to-ambient) and 150°C/W (junction-to-lead). Its Zener voltage is specified at IZT = 2 mA with 1 ms pulse width, and exhibits a positive temperature coefficient typical for 36 V devices.
The SOD−123 package supports automated placement and reflow soldering up to 260°C for 10 seconds, with cathode polarity marked by a band. It meets UL 94 V−0 flammability rating and delivers Class 3 ESD protection per Human Body Model.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ36T1G | No SZ prefix; not AEC−Q101 qualified; identical electrical specs and SOD−123 package | Intended for commercial/industrial use only; lacks automotive change control documentation | Select when AEC−Q101 compliance is not required and cost sensitivity is higher |
| BZX84-C36LT1G | Same 36 V nominal VZ, but ±6% tolerance and 350 mW PD; SOT−23 package (smaller footprint, higher RJA) | Used in space-constrained consumer electronics; lower power handling limits surge immunity | Select when board area is constrained and 350 mW derated power suffices |
Compared with MMSZ36T1G and BZX84-C36LT1G, SZMMSZ36T1G uniquely combines AEC−Q101 qualification, 500 mW power rating, and ±5% tolerance-making it the only choice for automotive-grade 36 V clamping where process traceability and extended temperature reliability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SZMMSZ36T1G?
The SZMMSZ36T1G has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at nominal 36 V, meaning its measured reverse breakdown voltage falls between 34.2 V and 37.8 V when tested at IZT = 2 mA with a 1 ms pulse width. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official onsemi datasheet.
Is SZMMSZ36T1G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZMMSZ36T1G is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, with design and manufacturing controls meeting automotive reliability standards. The "SZ" prefix explicitly denotes compliance for automotive and other applications requiring unique site and change control-making SZMMSZ36T1G appropriate for engine control, body electronics, and ADAS power domains.
What is the maximum power dissipation of SZMMSZ36T1G at 100°C ambient?
At 100°C ambient, SZMMSZ36T1G's power dissipation must be derated from its 500 mW rating at 75°C using the 6.7 mW/°C derating factor. This yields 500 mW − (100 − 75) × 6.7 mW = 332.5 mW maximum continuous power, verified in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of the onsemi datasheet.
Does SZMMSZ36T1G have Pb−Free packaging?
Yes, SZMMSZ36T1G uses Pb−Free packaging as indicated by the "G" suffix and documented in the Ordering Information section. It complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and features a corrosion-resistant, easily solderable finish compatible with standard reflow profiles up to 260°C for 10 seconds.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SZMMSZ36T1G?
SZMMSZ36T1G specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.05 μA at VR = 25.2 V (70% of nominal VZ), as listed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3. This low leakage ensures minimal standby power loss in battery-backed systems and high-impedance reference applications.
