MMBZ5242BQ-7-F

Diodes Incorporated · Zener Diodes · SOT-23

MMBZ5242BQ-7-F from Diodes Incorporated, in a SOT-23. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 A passive Zener anode (bottom-left terminal of the SOT23 schematic), the low-side terminal of the single Zener diode.
2 NC unconnected No internal connection; the schematic shows this terminal (bottom-right) with no connection to the diode.
3 K passive Zener cathode (top terminal of the SOT23 schematic); the MMBZ5242B nominal Zener voltage is 12V (11.40V to 12.60V) at IZT = 20mA.
