Product details
Overview
1N5356E3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 5 W axial-leaded silicon Zener diode with a nominal regulation voltage of 19 V ±5%, maximum dynamic impedance of 3.0 Ω at 65 mA test current, and maximum reverse leakage of 0.5 μA at 14.4 V. It operates from –65 °C to +150 °C and is used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5356E3/TR13 datasheet, 1N5356E3/TR13 pinout, 1N5356E3/TR13 application, or 1N5356E3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (25 °C/W junction-to-lead), surge current rating (75 A), voltage regulation (ΔVZ = 0.40 V), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage regulator in reverse-biased mode, where the cathode band denotes the positive terminal relative to the anode. Its low dynamic impedance (3.0 Ω) ensures stable regulation across 10–50% of IZM (65 mA), and its 25 °C/W thermal resistance enables reliable 5 W operation with 3/8″ lead length heat sinking.
The 1N5356E3/TR13 is part of the JEDEC-registered 1N53xxB series with e3 RoHS suffix and TR13 tape-and-reel packaging. It exhibits minimal voltage drift versus temperature (±0.08%/°C typical) and withstands 8.3 ms half-sine surge currents up to 75 A without degradation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 19 V ±5% at 65 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for 12–24 V rail protection |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL = 25 °C - requires ≥3/8″ lead length for full-rated operation |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 3.0 Ω max at IZT = 65 mA - ensures <0.2 V output variation across 10–50% load current |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.5 μA max at VR = 14.4 V - guarantees low standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 75 A peak (8.3 ms half-sine) - survives transient overvoltage events per IEC 61000-4-5 |
| Voltage Regulation (ΔVZ) | 0.40 V max - difference between VZ measured at 10% and 50% of IZM, confirming tight regulation linearity |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 25 °C/W junction-to-lead - enables direct thermal path to PCB copper or chassis mount |
Pinout & Package
Package: Axial-leaded T-18 plastic case (Void-free UL94V-0 epoxy), cathode indicated by single black band. Leads are annealed matte-tin plated per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026, RoHS compliant (e3 suffix), weight 0.7 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference ground node | Connected to system GND or lower-potential rail; reverse-bias current flows into cathode |
| Cathode (banded end) | Regulated output node | Provides stable 19 V reference when reverse-biased; must be held positive relative to anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N53xxB registration | Guarantees mechanical and electrical interchangeability across qualified manufacturers |
| Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 | Eliminates dry-pack requirement and floor-life constraints for SMT reflow compatibility |
| ESD robustness (MIL-STD-750 Method 1020) | Withstands >4 kV HBM without parameter shift-critical for handling in uncontrolled environments |
| Steady-state power @ TA = 25 °C on FR4 | 1.47 W with 4 mm² copper pads - enables board-level thermal design without external heatsink |
| Forward voltage @ 1.0 A | ≤1.2 V - supports use as clamp diode in bidirectional protection circuits |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Regulation | Automotive ECU Reference Voltage |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5356B | No e3 RoHS suffix; SnPb plating; same VZ, ZZ, IZM, and package | Not suitable for RoHS-compliant production; requires exemption documentation | Select only for legacy repair or non-RoHS military programs requiring JAN/JANTX screening prefixes |
| MMSZ5247B-TP | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 19 V ±5%; 500 mW rating; ZZ = 25 Ω at 20 mA | Lower power and higher impedance limit use to low-current bias/reference roles, not 5 W clamping | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where thermal mass is sufficient for <0.5 W continuous dissipation |
Compared with 1N5356B and MMSZ5247B-TP, the 1N5356E3/TR13 uniquely delivers 5 W axial-leaded regulation with RoHS compliance, 3.0 Ω impedance, and 75 A surge capability-making it irreplaceable for high-energy industrial and automotive clamping where leaded thermal performance and regulatory alignment are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N5356E3/TR13?
The 1N5356E3/TR13 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "B" suffix in its part number. This means its regulated voltage falls within 19 V ±0.95 V (18.05 V to 19.95 V) when tested at 65 mA and 25 °C lead temperature. The e3 suffix confirms RoHS compliance but does not affect voltage tolerance.
Can the 1N5356E3/TR13 be used in surface-mount designs?
No-the 1N5356E3/TR13 is an axial-leaded T-18 package device intended for through-hole mounting. For surface-mount equivalents, Microsemi offers the SMBJ5356B or SMBG5356B in DO-214AA/DO-214AB packages. These share the same 19 V ±5% rating but differ in thermal resistance, surge rating, and footprint.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation of the 1N5356E3/TR13 on a standard FR4 PCB?
When mounted on a standard FR4 PCB (1 oz copper) with 4 mm² copper pads and 1 mm track width, the 1N5356E3/TR13 delivers 1.47 W steady-state power at 25 °C ambient. This derates linearly above 25 °C per the curve in Figure 1 of the datasheet, reaching zero at ~125 °C ambient due to its 85 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
How does the 1N5356E3/TR13 handle surge events?
The 1N5356E3/TR13 is rated for a peak non-recurrent surge current (IZSM) of 75 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. This capability allows it to absorb energy from IEC 61000-4-5 combination wave surges or ISO 7637-2 load-dump transients without parametric shift or catastrophic failure, provided leads are adequately heat-sunk.
Is the 1N5356E3/TR13 suitable for precision voltage reference applications?
Yes-the 1N5356E3/TR13 supports precision reference use via its low dynamic impedance (3.0 Ω), tight ΔVZ (0.40 V), and stable temperature coefficient (~0.08%/°C). However, for sub-0.1% accuracy over wide temperature ranges, additional compensation or trimming is recommended, as the ±5% initial tolerance applies to absolute VZ at 25 °C.
