Product details
Overview
SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G from onsemi is an AEC-Q101-qualified Zener diode designed for precision voltage regulation and transient overvoltage protection in space-constrained automotive and industrial circuits. It delivers a nominal 15 V Zener breakdown voltage (14.66–15.35 V at IZT = 5 mA), 42 Ω dynamic impedance, and 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 11 V, housed in a wettable flank X2DFNW2 (0402) package.
For engineers reviewing the SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include tight ±2.3% voltage tolerance, low 0.40 mm profile for AOI-compatible assembly, and automotive-grade reliability under −65 °C to +150 °C operation.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional, two-terminal voltage reference with stable reverse-biased Zener conduction. Its electrical behavior is defined at IZT = 5 mA, with temperature coefficient of ±4 mV/°C and capacitance of 70 pF at 0 V bias and 1 MHz.
The X2DFNW2 package enables high-density placement and automated optical inspection via side-wettable flanks. Thermal resistance is 247 °C/W (150 mm² pad, 1 oz Cu), supporting 500 mW dissipation at 25 °C ambient before derating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 14.66–15.35 V at IZT = 5 mA - ensures precise clamping within ±2.3% tolerance for stable reference or protection |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 42 Ω max at IZT = 5 mA - maintains low voltage deviation under varying load current |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA max at VR = 11 V - minimizes standby power loss in battery-sensitive systems |
| Capacitance (C) | 70 pF at VR = 0 V, f = 1 MHz - limits high-frequency signal coupling in RF-adjacent circuits |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW on FR-4 (150 mm² pad) - supports robust transient suppression without thermal runaway |
| Junction Temp Range | −65 °C to +150 °C - certified for under-hood automotive and industrial control unit environments |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive electronics per stress test requirements including HTGB, HTRB, and TCT |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Zener cathode terminal | Connected to regulated/high-side rail; reverse bias applied here to initiate Zener conduction |
| 2 (Anode) | Zener anode terminal | Typically tied to ground or low-side reference; completes current path during clamping |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1SMB5925BT3G | 15 V, ±5% tolerance, DO-214AA package (3.5 mm × 2.7 mm), 3 W PD, 100 Ω ZZT | Larger footprint, higher power, looser tolerance - suited for non-space-constrained industrial power supplies | Select when board area is not constrained and higher surge energy absorption (>3 W) is required. |
| BZX84-C15LT1G | 15 V, ±5% tolerance, SOT-23 package (3.0 mm × 1.4 mm), 350 mW PD, 30 Ω ZZT | No AEC-Q101 qualification, no wettable flanks, higher profile (1.1 mm) - limited to commercial-grade portable electronics | Select only for cost-sensitive consumer designs where automotive qualification and AOI support are unnecessary. |
Compared with 1SMB5925BT3G and BZX84-C15LT1G, the SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 0.40 mm height, wettable flanks, and ±2.3% tolerance - making it the sole choice for high-reliability, miniaturized automotive voltage clamping where PCB real estate and process traceability are critical.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G?
The SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G has a tight Zener voltage tolerance of ±2.3%, specified as 14.66 V minimum to 15.35 V maximum at IZT = 5 mA. This tighter tolerance than standard-series Zeners (e.g., NZ8F15VMX2WT5G at ±5%) enables reduced calibration effort in precision voltage reference designs and improves system-level accuracy in automotive sensor biasing circuits using the SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G.
Is SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, with full stress test validation including HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling. The "SZ" prefix explicitly denotes compliance with automotive-specific site and control change requirements, and the device is rated for operation from −65 °C to +150 °C - making it suitable for engine bay, transmission control, and ADAS applications where the SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G is deployed.
What package type does SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G use?
The SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G uses the X2DFNW2 package (Case 711BG), a 0402-sized wettable flank leadless package measuring 1.00 × 0.60 × 0.37 mm. Its side-wettable terminations enable reliable automated optical inspection (AOI), and its 0.40 mm maximum height supports ultra-thin PCB assemblies - a key differentiator versus legacy SOD-123 or SOT-23 packages used by competing Zeners such as the SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G's alternatives.
What is the maximum power dissipation for SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G?
The SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G supports 500 mW total device dissipation on a 150 mm² FR-4 board with 1 oz copper (derating at 1.2 mW/°C above 25 °C), per Note 2 in the datasheet. This is higher than the 250 mW rating on minimal-pad layouts (Note 1), reflecting its optimized thermal performance in production-grade PCBs - a critical specification when sizing the SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G for transient suppression in automotive power domains.
Does SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G have RoHS and halogen-free compliance?
Yes, the SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G is Pb-Free, Halogen Free/BFR Free, and fully RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU. It meets J-STD-609 Class 1 moisture sensitivity and carries the "G" suffix denoting green packaging. This compliance is documented in onsemi's official materials declaration and applies to all units shipped as SZNZ8F15VSMX2WT5G - essential for global electronics manufacturing and export compliance programs.
