Product details
Overview
SZMMSZ43T1G from onsemi is a 43 V ±5% Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD−123 package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 75°C, with 150 Ω dynamic impedance at 2 mA test current and 0.05 μA reverse leakage at 30.1 V, used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in automotive power rails.
For engineers reviewing the SZMMSZ43T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (340°C/W), AEC−Q101 qualification, ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), and SOD−123 board assembly compatibility.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator, maintaining stable output voltage across variable load currents by conducting reverse breakdown current above its specified Zener voltage. It exhibits a nominal temperature coefficient of +12 mV/°C near 43 V, requiring thermal derating above 75°C ambient per its 6.7 mW/°C derating curve.
Designed for surface-mount automated assembly, the SZMMSZ43T1G features a Pb−Free SOD−123 case with UL 94 V−0 flammability rating, cathode polarity band marking, and maximum soldering temperature of 260°C for 10 seconds - meeting automotive-grade reliability requirements under AEC−Q101.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSZ43T1G | No SZ prefix; commercial grade (non-AEC−Q101); identical electrical specs and SOD−123 package | Not qualified for automotive use; suitable for industrial or consumer applications where AEC−Q101 is not mandated | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification requirement |
| SZMMBZ5263BLT1G | 43 V Zener, SOT−23 package, 350 mW rating, higher ZZT (250 Ω), different thermal resistance (400°C/W) | Smaller footprint but lower power handling; less suitable for sustained 500 mW dissipation scenarios | Select when board space is constrained and peak power remains below 350 mW |
Compared with MMSZ43T1G and SZMMBZ5263BLT1G, the SZMMSZ43T1G uniquely combines AEC−Q101 qualification, 500 mW power rating, and SOD−123 manufacturability - making it the only choice for automotive applications demanding both reliability and thermal headroom.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZMMSZ43T1G?
The SZMMSZ43T1G has a nominal Zener voltage of 43 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, resulting in a guaranteed range of 40.85 V to 45.15 V at 2 mA test current. This tolerance is measured under pulsed conditions (PW = 1 ms) and applies across the full operating temperature range of −55°C to +150°C. The SZMMSZ43T1G datasheet specifies this value in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3.
Is SZMMSZ43T1G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SZMMSZ43T1G is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, explicitly designed for automotive and other applications requiring unique site and control change tracking. Its SOD−123 package, Pb−Free construction, and Class 3 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM) meet stringent automotive manufacturing and field reliability requirements. The SZMMSZ43T1G is commonly deployed in engine control units and body electronics modules.
What is the maximum power dissipation for SZMMSZ43T1G?
The SZMMSZ43T1G is rated for 500 mW total power dissipation on FR−5 board at lead temperature (TL) = 75°C, with linear derating of 6.7 mW/°C above that temperature. Its thermal resistance junction-to-ambient is 340°C/W, meaning a 1 W power input would raise junction temperature by 340°C above ambient - underscoring the need for proper PCB copper area and airflow. This rating is confirmed in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of the SZMMSZ43T1G datasheet.
How does the temperature coefficient affect SZMMSZ43T1G performance?
The SZMMSZ43T1G exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of approximately +12 mV/°C near its 43 V operating point, as shown in Figure 1 of the datasheet. This means its Zener voltage increases by ~12 mV per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature. For applications requiring tight regulation across wide temperature ranges, this drift must be compensated in system-level calibration - especially critical in automotive under-hood environments where ambient can reach +125°C.
What packaging options are available for SZMMSZ43T1G?
SZMMSZ43T1G is supplied in Pb−Free SOD−123 package (Case 425, Style 1) on 3,000-unit tape-and-reel format. The marking code "Z1" appears on the cathode-banded end, followed by a date code. No alternate packages (e.g., SOT−23 or DO−35) are offered for this specific part number - the SOD−123 variant is the only configuration listed in the official onsemi ordering information table for SZMMSZ43T1G.
