MMSZ5257B

MSKSEMI · Zener Diodes · SOD-123

MMSZ5257B from MSKSEMI, in a SOD-123. 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 K passive Cathode (banded end, marked '-' on the package outline); goes positive relative to the anode in reverse Zener breakdown, with VZ of 31.35 V min to 34.65 V max at IZT = 3.8 mA for MMSZ5257B.
2 A passive Anode (marked '+' on the package outline); forward voltage is 0.9 V at IF = 10 mA.
