Product details
Overview
1N5363B from onsemi is a 5 W axial-lead Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 30 V, ±5% tolerance, 40 Ω maximum zener impedance at 8 mA test current, and 140 mA maximum DC zener current. It provides precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits operating up to +150°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5363B datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include zener voltage stability under thermal drift, surge current capability (158 A @ 8.3 ms), low leakage (<0.6 µA @ 22.8 V), and Pb-free Surmetic 40 plastic package compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
The 1N5363B operates as a silicon-oxide passivated junction Zener regulator, delivering stable reverse breakdown at 30 V with temperature coefficient of +0.075 %/°C above 10 V. Its 40 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT = 8 mA ensures tight regulation under varying load conditions.
Designed for DC and pulsed operation, it supports maximum junction temperature of +200°C (non-repetitive) and +150°C (continuous), with thermal resistance θJL = 25 °C/W at 3/8″ lead length. Surge rating reaches 158 A peak for 8.3 ms square-wave pulses per Figure 5.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 28.5 V min / 30 V nom / 31.5 V max - defines regulated output voltage window under 8 mA test current |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5 W at TL = 25°C - sets absolute steady-state thermal limit; derates 40 mW/°C above 25°C |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 40 Ω max @ IZT = 8 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients |
| Max DC Zener Current (IZM) | 140 mA - derived from PD/VZ(min); limits continuous regulation current without thermal runaway |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 0.6 µA max @ VR = 22.8 V - ensures minimal standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Surge Current (IRM) | 158 A @ 8.3 ms - enables transient overvoltage clamping in line-powered systems |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - provides robust handling during board assembly and field service |
Pinout & Package
Package: Axial-lead Surmetic 40 plastic case (JEDEC CASE 017AA), void-free transfer-molded thermosetting material, cathode indicated by band, leads solderable per 260°C/10 s specification.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5363RLG | Pb-free tape-and-reel variant of same die; identical electrical specs and package dimensions | No functional difference; selected for automated pick-and-place manufacturing | Choose 1N5363RLG for SMT-line compatibility; same thermal and regulation performance as 1N5363B |
| BZX85C30 | 1.3 W rating, 30 V ±5%, 35 Ω ZZT @ 10 mA - lower power, higher impedance, TO-204AA metal can | Not suitable for 5 W continuous dissipation; limited to low-power references or signal-level clamping | Select BZX85C30 only where power demand is <1.3 W; 1N5363B required for >1.5 W sustained regulation |
Compared with 1N5363RLG, the 1N5363B offers identical regulation but in bulk box packaging for manual or semi-automated assembly; versus BZX85C30, it delivers 3.8× higher power handling and lower dynamic impedance for demanding industrial power rails.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage tolerance and test condition for 1N5363B?
The 1N5363B has a ±5% zener voltage tolerance, specified as 28.5 V minimum, 30 V nominal, and 31.5 V maximum at IZT = 8 mA, TA = 25°C. This tolerance is guaranteed per JEDEC standard and verified during production testing with 40 ±10 ms current application prior to measurement.
Can 1N5363B replace lower-voltage Zeners like 1N5348B in the same circuit?
No - the 1N5363B is not a drop-in replacement for 1N5348B due to its 30 V zener voltage versus 11 V. Substituting it would cause catastrophic overvoltage at the regulated node. Circuit redesign including current-limiting resistor recalculation and load compatibility verification is mandatory before any cross-series substitution involving 1N5363B.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for continuous operation of 1N5363B?
The 1N5363B supports continuous operation up to +150°C junction temperature. While the absolute maximum storage and non-repetitive pulsed rating is +200°C, exceeding +150°C under DC conditions risks accelerated parameter drift and reduced long-term reliability. Thermal design must ensure TJ ≤ 150°C using θJL = 25 °C/W and measured lead temperature.
How does the 1N5363B's surge current rating compare to its steady-state power rating?
The 1N5363B sustains 5 W continuously but handles 158 A peak surge current for 8.3 ms - equivalent to ~2000 W instantaneous power. This 400× power ratio reflects its ability to absorb short-duration transients without failure, enabled by thermal mass of the Surmetic 40 package and silicon junction design. Steady-state dissipation remains capped at 5 W.
Is the 1N5363B RoHS-compliant and what does the 'G' suffix indicate?
Yes, the 1N5363B is RoHS-compliant. The 'G' suffix (e.g., 1N5363BG) explicitly denotes Pb-free packaging per onsemi's RoHS implementation. Standard 1N5363B parts shipped by Aetrix meet RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and are qualified to JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1, with no exemptions required for lead content.
