Product details
Overview
SZMMSZ4689T3G from onsemi is a 5.1 V ±5% Zener voltage regulator diode in SOD−123 package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 75°C, with 50 µA test current (IZT), 10 µA leakage current at 3 V reverse bias, and ESD rating >16 kV (HBM). It provides precision low-voltage reference and overvoltage protection in space-constrained automotive and industrial power rails.
For engineers reviewing the SZMMSZ4689T3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include nominal Zener voltage tolerance, dynamic impedance at 20 mA, temperature coefficient, thermal resistance (RJL = 150 °C/W), and AEC−Q101 qualification status.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal shunt voltage regulator, maintaining stable output voltage across load variations by conducting reverse current above its specified Zener breakdown threshold. Its low IZT (50 µA) enables efficient regulation in ultra-low-power monitoring circuits.
The SOD−123 package supports automated placement and offers 340 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. With a −55 °C to +150 °C operating junction temperature range and Class 3 HBM ESD rating, it meets stringent reliability requirements for automotive body electronics and industrial sensor interfaces.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX584C5V1 | Same 5.1 V nominal, but SOD-323 package (smaller footprint); higher ZZT (30 Ω typical); not AEC-Q101 qualified | Preferred for consumer wearables where board space is critical and automotive qualification is unnecessary | Select when size trumps qualification and thermal performance is secondary |
| MMSZ5222BT1G | 5.1 V nominal, same SOD-123 package, but only commercial-grade (−55°C to +150°C not guaranteed); RJL = 170 °C/W; no AEC-Q101 or PPAP support | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial controls without automotive traceability requirements | Choose for non-automotive production where full AEC-Q101 documentation is not mandated |
Compared with BZX584C5V1 and MMSZ5222BT1G, SZMMSZ4689T3G uniquely combines AEC−Q101 qualification, 150 °C/W thermal resistance, and guaranteed −55°C to +150°C operation-making it the only option qualified for under-hood automotive use with validated PPAP capability.
