Product details
Overview
SZMMSZ4687T1G from onsemi is a 4.3 V nominal Zener diode in SOD−123 package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 75°C, with 50 µA test current (IZT), 4 µA leakage at 2 V reverse bias, and ±5% voltage tolerance. It serves as a precision low-voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in automotive sensor signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SZMMSZ4687T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy at low IZT, thermal derating behavior on FR-5 board, junction-to-lead thermal resistance, and AEC-Q101 qualification status for automotive use.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in silicon PN junction. Its 4.3 V nominal Zener voltage falls within the low-temperature-coefficient region (near zero TC), minimizing drift across −55°C to +150°C operating range. The SOD−123 package enables automated placement while maintaining 150°C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance.
Designed for stable regulation under low-current conditions, it delivers specified VZ at IZT = 50 µA - significantly lower than traditional Zeners - enabling ultra-low-power biasing in battery-operated systems. Its ESD rating exceeds 16 kV (HBM) and it meets RoHS and Pb-free requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.09–4.52 V @ 50 µA - tight 5% tolerance ensures predictable clamping level in 3.3 V rail protection. |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW @ TL = 75°C - supports continuous operation in compact automotive ECUs without forced cooling. |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 4 µA @ VR = 2 V - low off-state current preserves battery life in always-on monitoring circuits. |
| Junction-to-Lead Rθ | 150 °C/W - enables effective heat transfer to PCB copper when mounted per recommended footprint. |
| Operating Temperature | −55°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive environments per AEC-Q101. |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - withstands handling and assembly without protection circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C4V3 | 4.3 V ±5%, 300 mW rating, SOT-23 package, IZT = 5 mA - higher test current, larger footprint. | Not AEC-Q101 qualified; suitable for commercial-grade consumer products only. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification and thermal performance. |
| MMSZ4687T1G | Identical electrical specs (4.09–4.52 V, 50 µA IZT, 4 µA IR), same SOD−123 package, but lacks SZ-prefix automotive traceability and PPAP capability. | Approved for industrial/commercial use only; not authorized for automotive production BOMs. | Choose only if AEC-Q101 documentation, site-specific control, or PPAP support is unnecessary. |
Compared with BZX84-C4V3 and MMSZ4687T1G, SZMMSZ4687T1G uniquely combines automotive qualification, ultra-low IZT operation, and SOD−123 miniaturization - making it the sole option for AEC-Q101-compliant designs requiring sub-100 µA bias current.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZMMSZ4687T1G?
The SZMMSZ4687T1G has a nominal Zener voltage of 4.3 V with a tolerance of ±5%, corresponding to a guaranteed range of 4.09 V to 4.52 V when measured at IZT = 50 µA and TA = 25°C. This tight tolerance ensures reliable clamping or referencing in safety-critical automotive circuits where voltage margin is constrained.
Is SZMMSZ4687T1G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SZMMSZ4687T1G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, with manufacturing traceability and site-specific process controls required for automotive production. The "SZ" prefix explicitly denotes compliance with automotive quality systems, distinguishing it from the commercial-grade MMSZ4687T1G variant.
What is the maximum power dissipation for SZMMSZ4687T1G on FR-5 board?
SZMMSZ4687T1G is rated for 500 mW total power dissipation on FR-5 board at lead temperature (TL) of 75°C. Above 75°C, it derates linearly at 6.7 mW/°C, reaching zero dissipation at approximately 148°C - a critical parameter for thermal design in sealed automotive enclosures.
How does the leakage current of SZMMSZ4687T1G compare at low reverse voltage?
SZMMSZ4687T1G exhibits only 4 µA maximum reverse leakage current at VR = 2 V and TA = 25°C. This ultra-low leakage supports high-impedance bias networks in battery-powered systems, where even nanoamp-level currents impact standby lifetime - a key advantage over older Zener families requiring mA-level IZT.
What package type and dimensions does SZMMSZ4687T1G use?
SZMMSZ4687T1G uses the SOD−123 surface-mount package (Case 425), measuring 1.60 mm × 2.69 mm × 1.16 mm. Its standardized 2-lead configuration with cathode band marking supports automated optical inspection and pick-and-place accuracy down to ±0.1 mm, essential for high-volume automotive PCB assembly.
