Product details
Overview
1N5352AE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 15 V, ±10% tolerance, 5 W axial-leaded silicon Zener diode optimized for voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits. It delivers stable regulation at 75 mA test current (IZT), with 2.5 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZ), 1.0 μA reverse leakage at 10.8 V (VR), and operates across –65°C to +150°C.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5352AE3/TR13 datasheet, 1N5352AE3/TR13 pinout, 1N5352AE3/TR13 application, or 1N5352AE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its ±10% tolerance (A suffix), RoHS-compliant e3 plating, tape-and-reel TR13 packaging, and thermal resistance of 25 °C/W junction-to-lead at 10 mm lead length.
Technical Context
This Zener operates in reverse breakdown mode with cathode-banded polarity, requiring the banded end to be held positive relative to the anode. Its regulation performance is specified at TL = 25°C with 40 ms DC current application, and voltage regulation (ΔVZ) is defined as the difference between measurements at 10% and 50% of IZM.
The device exhibits low dynamic impedance (2.5 Ω) at 75 mA IZT and maintains tight voltage stability under surge conditions-rated for 6.3 A non-recurrent half-sine surge (IZSM, 8.3 ms). Its 25 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance enables high steady-state current (6.3 A) when adequately heat sunk at 3/8″ lead length.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| Power Dissipation | 5.0 W at TL < 25°C - supports continuous operation up to 6.3 A IZM with proper heatsinking |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 2.5 Ω at IZT = 75 mA - ensures minimal output voltage shift under load current variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1.0 μA max at VR = 10.8 V - guarantees low standby power loss in reference circuits |
| Thermal Resistance | 25 °C/W junction-to-lead (3/8″ lead length) - enables predictable thermal design without PCB copper area dependency |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 6.3 A peak (8.3 ms half-sine) - withstands transient overvoltage events in industrial power rails |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +150°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and military-grade environmental stress |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5352B | Same 15 V nominal, ±5% tolerance (vs. ±10% for 1N5352AE3/TR13); identical package and thermal specs | Higher precision required where tighter regulation band (±0.75 V) is critical for feedback loop stability | Select 1N5352B when reference accuracy outweighs cost sensitivity; same footprint and thermal design apply |
| MMBZ5245BS-7-F | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 15 V ±5%, 0.5 W rating (vs. 5 W axial); 30 Ω ZZ at 20 mA | Space-constrained PCBs where board area is premium and power dissipation ≤0.5 W suffices | Choose MMBZ5245BS-7-F only for low-power signal-level clamping-not for primary power rail regulation |
Compared with 1N5352B and MMBZ5245BS-7-F, the 1N5352AE3/TR13 uniquely balances high-power capability (5 W), RoHS compliance, tape-and-reel automation support, and cost-effective axial mounting-making it optimal for industrial power supply and ruggedized clamp designs where thermal margin and manufacturability are prioritized over ultra-tight tolerance.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N5352AE3/TR13?
The 1N5352AE3/TR13 has a ±10% Zener voltage tolerance, confirmed by the "A" suffix per Microsemi's documentation. This means its regulated voltage falls within 13.5 V to 16.5 V at 75 mA test current (IZT), making it suitable for applications where moderate precision is acceptable alongside high power handling.
Does the 1N5352AE3/TR13 require dry packing before PCB assembly?
No, the 1N5352AE3/TR13 has IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B moisture sensitivity Level 1, meaning it is not hygroscopic and requires no dry pack or floor-life controls prior to soldering-reducing handling overhead and enabling direct use from sealed TR13 tape reels.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N5352AE3/TR13?
The 1N5352AE3/TR13 is rated for 6.3 A peak non-recurrent surge current (IZSM) under an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform, as specified in Microsemi's datasheet. This enables reliable transient suppression in automotive and industrial power rails without derating or parallel devices.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N5352AE3/TR13 affect PCB layout?
The 1N5352AE3/TR13 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 25 °C/W at 10 mm lead length, decoupling thermal performance from PCB copper area. Unlike surface-mount Zeners, its cooling relies on lead conduction-not board traces-so minimal copper pour is needed, simplifying layout for high-reliability designs.
Is the 1N5352AE3/TR13 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, the 1N5352AE3/TR13 features RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating qualified for soldering at 260 °C for 10 seconds, fully supporting lead-free reflow profiles. Its UL94V-0 epoxy body remains stable under JEDEC-standard thermal cycling, ensuring interconnect integrity.
