Product details
Overview
1N5352BRLG from onsemi is a 5 W axial-lead Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 15 V (±5%), maximum zener impedance of 75 Ω at 2.5 mA test current, 315 mA maximum DC zener current, and 180 W non-repetitive surge rating at 8.3 ms. It serves as a precision voltage reference or shunt regulator in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and analog signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5352BRLG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its ±5% tolerance, Pb-free Surmetic 40 plastic package, 11.5 V regulation knee voltage, 0.25 mA leakage at 12.2 V, and thermal resistance of 25 °C/W junction-to-lead.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon-oxide passivated junction Zener diode optimized for stable DC voltage regulation under steady-state and transient conditions. Its design supports operation from −65 °C to +200 °C, with derating above 25 °C at 40 mW/°C and a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C for continuous DC use.
The 1N5352BRLG exhibits a positive temperature coefficient above 5 V, with typical TC of +6.3 mV/°C near its 15 V nominal zener point. Its low 75 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT = 2.5 mA ensures tight regulation across load variations in feedback networks and reference circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 14.25–15.75 V (±5% tolerance; defines regulated output voltage in shunt configuration) |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5 W @ TL = 25 °C (maximum steady-state power handling before thermal derating) |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 75 Ω @ IZT = 2.5 mA (low dynamic resistance enables stable regulation under varying load) |
| Max DC Zener Current (IZM) | 315 mA (calculated as 5 W / 15.75 V; sets upper limit for continuous shunt current) |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 0.25 mA @ VR = 12.2 V (ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference nodes) |
| Surge Rating | 180 W @ 8.3 ms (supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure) |
| Junction-to-Lead RθJL | 25 °C/W (enables thermal modeling when leads are used as heatsinks) |
Pinout & Package

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 electrical specs but Pb-containing package; no G-suffix | Not suitable for RoHS-compliant production; requires lead-free process validation | Select only if legacy Pb-based assembly is mandated and traceability allows |
| MMSZ5245B | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 15 V ±5%; 500 mW rating; ZZT = 17 Ω @ 20 mA | Lower power, smaller footprint; unsuitable for 5 W dissipation or axial board mounting | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where thermal mass and power demand are lower |
Compared with 1N5352BRLG, the 1N5352B lacks Pb-free compliance and requires different soldering profile validation, while MMSZ5245B trades 5 W capability and axial mechanical robustness for miniaturization and higher impedance performance at higher test current - making it appropriate only for low-power reference roles.

FAQ
What is the nominal zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N5352BRLG?
The 1N5352BRLG has a nominal zener voltage of 15 V with a guaranteed tolerance of ±5%, corresponding to a minimum of 14.25 V and maximum of 15.75 V at IZT = 2.5 mA. This tolerance is defined per JEDEC standards and applies specifically to the B-suffix variant. The 1N5352BRLG maintains this specification across its rated operating temperature range and is validated using 40 ±10 ms test pulses.
How does the 1N5352BRLG handle thermal derating above 25°C?
The 1N5352BRLG derates linearly at 40 mW/°C above 25°C ambient lead temperature (TL). At 75°C TL, its maximum allowable power drops to 3 W. This derating is based on its 25 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance and must be applied when calculating safe operating area in real-world layouts. The 1N5352BRLG's maximum junction temperature remains 150°C for DC operation, though pulsed conditions may allow brief excursions to 200°C.
What is the surge current capability of the 1N5352BRLG and how is it measured?
The 1N5352BRLG supports a peak non-repetitive surge current of 180 W at 8.3 ms pulse width, derived from its 180 W surge rating. This corresponds to approximately 12.9 A at 14 V (using VZ ≈ 14 V). Measurement follows Figure 5 in the datasheet, using square-wave pulses with specified mounting contact location (3/8″ to 1/2″ from diode body). The 1N5352BRLG's surge capability is validated under single-pulse conditions and is not rated for repetitive surges.
Can the 1N5352BRLG be used in surface-mount designs?
No, the 1N5352BRLG is an axial-lead device in the Surmetic 40 plastic package (Case 017AA) and is not compatible with surface-mount assembly processes. Its leaded construction requires through-hole mounting and manual or wave soldering. For SMT alternatives, consider the MMSZ5245B (15 V, SOD-123) or NZ9F15V (15 V, SOD-323), both of which have different power ratings and impedance characteristics than the 1N5352BRLG.
What is the meaning of the 'G' suffix in 1N5352BRLG?
The 'G' suffix in 1N5352BRLG indicates a Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) package per onsemi's packaging nomenclature. It confirms that the device uses lead-free terminations and molding compound, qualified for reflow soldering up to 260°C for 10 seconds at 1/16 inch from the case. This designation is distinct from the 'RL' tape-and-reel shipping format and applies specifically to material composition - a key requirement for the 1N5352BRLG in regulated markets.
