Product details
Overview
UDZ13B-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a precision surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 13.2 V (min 12.91 V, max 13.49 V), 200 mW power dissipation, 37 Ω zener impedance at 5 mA, and ±0.1 µA reverse leakage at 10 V. It uses SOD323 package and serves as voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the UDZ13B-7 datasheet, UDZ13B-7 pinout, UDZ13B-7 application, or UDZ13B-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±2.2%), thermal coefficient (~0.08%/°C), junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (625 °C/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with sharp knee characteristics and tightly controlled voltage regulation across 5 mA test current. Its low 37 Ω dynamic impedance ensures stable reference performance under varying load conditions.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on FR-4 PCBs using recommended pad layout, it delivers consistent regulation from −65 °C to +150 °C and maintains <0.1 µA reverse leakage up to 10 V, enabling reliable operation in battery-powered and automotive sensor interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 12.91–13.49 V at 5 mA - defines regulated output voltage window for reference or clamping |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 200 mW - limits continuous operating current to ~15 mA at 13.2 V without heatsinking |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 37 Ω at 5 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.1 µA at 10 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby voltage-monitoring circuits |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 625 °C/W - requires derating above 25 °C ambient; full power only at TA ≤ 75 °C |
| Operating Temperature | −65 to +150 °C - supports under-hood automotive and industrial control applications |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive electronics per stress-test requirements |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD323 - ultra-compact 2-pin surface-mount case (1.30 mm × 1.70 mm × 0.90 mm), cathode identified by band marking, matte tin-plated terminals solderable per MIL-STD-202.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference | Connected to lower-potential node; reverse-biased during regulation |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / voltage reference output | Marked with band; supplies stable voltage relative to anode when reverse-biased ≥10 V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Sharp breakdown knee | Enables precise voltage threshold detection without hysteresis in protection circuits |
| Tight voltage tolerance | ±2.2% (12.91–13.49 V) reduces need for post-assembly calibration in reference designs |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validates reliability for automotive body electronics, infotainment power rails, and sensor biasing |
| Halogen- and antimony-free | Meets IEC 61249-2-21 "Green" standard (<900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb) |
| Moisture sensitivity Level 1 | Eliminates bake requirement prior to reflow, reducing manufacturing cost and process complexity |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX384-B13,115 (Nexperia) | Same SOD323 package; 13 V nominal, ±5% tolerance (12.35–13.65 V); 40 Ω ZZT | Looser voltage tolerance increases calibration burden in precision references | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs tight regulation needs |

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage that can be continuously applied to UDZ13B-7 without breakdown?
The device is rated for 10 V reverse voltage (VR) with ≤0.1 µA leakage current. Applying ≥12.91 V will initiate controlled Zener breakdown; sustained operation above 10 V must account for power dissipation limits and thermal derating per Figure 1. Absolute maximum reverse voltage is not specified beyond the 10 V test condition.
Is UDZ13B-7 compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes. UDZ13B-7 is fully RoHS-compliant and qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles (JEDEC J-STD-020D Level 1), with peak temperatures up to 260 °C. Its matte tin annealed terminals ensure reliable wetting and intermetallic formation without voiding or dewetting.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over −40 °C to +125 °C?
Per Figure 8, UDZ13B-7 exhibits ~+0.08%/°C TC near 13 V. Over a 165 °C range, this yields ~13.2 V × 0.0008 × 165 ≈ ±174 mV total drift, or ±1.3% full-scale error-within specification for most non-precision reference uses but requiring compensation in metrology-grade systems.
Can UDZ13B-7 replace a 1N4742A in existing designs?
No. The 1N4742A is a through-hole 12 V, 1 W Zener in DO-41 package. UDZ13B-7 is SOD323, 13.2 V, 200 mW, and has different thermal and electrical behavior. Direct replacement would require PCB redesign, power derating, and verification of voltage tolerance impact on system functionality.
