Product details
Overview
UDZ4V3B-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a surface-mount precision Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 4.3 V (min 4.17 V, max 4.43 V), 200 mW power dissipation, 100 Ω zener impedance at 5 mA test current, and ±1% voltage tolerance. It operates from –65°C to +150°C and is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive applications including voltage reference and overvoltage protection in power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the UDZ4V3B-7 datasheet, UDZ4V3B-7 pinout, UDZ4V3B-7 application, or UDZ4V3B-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy, low dynamic impedance, thermal stability, SOD323 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts, and automotive-grade reliability certification.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference by operating in reverse breakdown mode with sharp knee characteristics and tightly controlled voltage regulation. Its 100 Ω zener impedance at 5 mA ensures stable output under varying load conditions, while the 625 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance defines derating behavior on standard FR-4 PCBs.
The diode exhibits a typical temperature coefficient near zero for 4.3 V devices (per Fig. 7 interpolation), enabling stable reference performance across industrial temperature ranges. Cathode identification via band marking and matte tin–annealed terminals ensure reliable solderability and automated assembly compatibility.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar precision Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C4V3 | Same 4.3 V nominal rating but ±5% tolerance; 350 mW power rating; SOT-23 package | Higher power handling but looser voltage accuracy; larger footprint than SOD323 | Select when higher dissipation is needed and tighter regulation is not required |
| MMSZ4685 | 4.3 V nominal, ±5% tolerance; 500 mW rating; SOD-123 package; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Higher power and larger package; lacks automotive qualification and low-impedance performance | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial use where qualification and precision are secondary |
Compared with BZX84-C4V3 and MMSZ4685, UDZ4V3B-7 delivers superior voltage accuracy (±1% vs. ±5%), lower dynamic impedance (100 Ω vs. ≥250 Ω), and automotive qualification-making it optimal for safety-critical or high-precision reference roles where SOD323 size constraints apply.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse current specification for UDZ4V3B-7 at 1.0 V?
The maximum reverse current is 5 µA at VR = 1.0 V, measured at TA = +25°C. This low leakage ensures minimal power loss in standby modes and prevents loading of high-impedance reference nodes in precision analog circuits.
Is UDZ4V3B-7 suitable for use in automotive applications?
Yes - UDZ4V3B-7 is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed stress tests for temperature cycling, humidity, mechanical shock, and high-temperature operating life required for automotive electronics, including under-hood and infotainment systems.
How does the SOD323 package affect thermal performance?
The SOD323 package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 625 °C/W on standard FR-4 PCBs. At 200 mW dissipation, this results in a 125°C junction rise above ambient - requiring derating above 25°C ambient per the published power derating curve.
What is the significance of the "B9" marking code on UDZ4V3B-7?
The "B9" marking identifies the UDZ4V3B variant on the device top surface and corresponds to the 4.3 V zener voltage bin within the UDZ3V6B–UDZ15B family. It is used for traceability and automated optical inspection during assembly.
