Product details
Overview
1N5374BRLG from onsemi is a 5 W axial-lead Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 75 V, ±5% tolerance, 20 Ω maximum zener impedance at 1 mA test current, and 1.6 A maximum surge current at 8.3 ms pulse width. It operates as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in DC power supply regulation circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5374BRLG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include zener voltage stability under thermal drift, surge robustness for transient suppression, leakage current at rated reverse voltage, and lead-to-ambient thermal resistance in through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device uses silicon-oxide passivated junction technology to achieve tight voltage regulation and low leakage. Its zener voltage is specified at IZT = 1 mA with guaranteed min/typ/max values (71.25 V / 75 V / 78.75 V) and exhibits a positive temperature coefficient above 5 V, typical for high-voltage Zeners.
The 1N5374BRLG supports non-repetitive surge currents up to 1.6 A at 8.3 ms, with thermal performance governed by junction-to-lead resistance (θJL = 25 °C/W) and lead length-dependent derating. It is rated for operation from −65 °C to +200 °C, with DC max junction temperature limited to 150 °C.
Key Specifications

| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5 W at TL = 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling before thermal derating |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 20 Ω max @ IZT = 1 mA - determines AC regulation stiffness and ripple rejection |
| Surge Current (IRM) | 1.6 A peak @ 8.3 ms - enables transient overvoltage absorption without failure |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 1.9 µA max @ VR = 56 V - ensures minimal standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction-to-Lead Thermal Resistance (θJL) | 25 °C/W - quantifies heat transfer efficiency from die to leads for thermal design |
| Operating Temperature Range | −65 °C to +200 °C - supports industrial, automotive under-hood, and aerospace environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5374BRL | Same electrical specs but SnPb lead finish (non-Pb-free) | Not suitable for RoHS-compliant production; requires exemption documentation | Select only if legacy assembly process mandates SnPb solder compatibility |
| BZX85C75 | 1.3 W rating, 75 V ±5%, higher ZZT (70 Ω), lower IRM (0.5 A) | Limited to low-power signal-level clamping; insufficient for 5 W power rail regulation | Use only in space-constrained, low-energy circuits where 5 W dissipation is not required |
Compared with 1N5374BRLG, 1N5374BRL lacks Pb-free compliance and requires special handling, while BZX85C75 offers identical nominal voltage but cannot sustain equivalent power or surge loads-making 1N5374BRLG the sole choice for robust 5 W, high-surge, RoHS-aligned Zener regulation.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage tolerance and test condition for 1N5374BRLG?
The 1N5374BRLG has a ±5% zener voltage tolerance, verified at IZT = 1 mA with 40 ±10 ms current application prior to measurement. Its nominal VZ is 75 V, with guaranteed min/typ/max values of 71.25 V / 75 V / 78.75 V at TA = 25 °C. This tolerance applies specifically to the B-suffix device per JEDEC standards.
Does 1N5374BRLG support surface-mount assembly?
No, the 1N5374BRLG is an axial-lead device in Case 017AA plastic package and is designed exclusively for through-hole mounting. It does not have SMD-compatible terminations or tape-and-reel packaging optimized for pick-and-place. For SMT alternatives, consult onsemi's NZ series or BZX85C75 in DO-35.
What is the maximum allowable DC zener current for 1N5374BRLG at 25°C ambient?
The maximum DC zener current (IZM) for 1N5374BRLG is 620 mA at TL = 25 °C, calculated as PD/VZ(min) = 5 W / 71.25 V. This value assumes lead temperature is maintained at 25 °C; actual usable current decreases with rising lead temperature due to 40 mW/°C derating above 25 °C.
How does the temperature coefficient affect 1N5374BRLG's regulation accuracy above 70 V?
Per Figure 3 in the datasheet, the 1N5374BRLG exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of approximately +0.08 %/°C above 70 V. This means its zener voltage increases by ~60 mV per °C rise in junction temperature, requiring thermal design to limit ΔTJ if regulation stability within ±1% is required across −40 °C to +125 °C.
Is 1N5374BRLG suitable for use in load-dump protection circuits per ISO 7637-2?
Yes, the 1N5374BRLG is validated for load-dump suppression: its 1.6 A peak surge current rating at 8.3 ms matches ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a waveform requirements. When used with appropriate series impedance, it clamps transients to ≤78.75 V, protecting downstream 80 V-rated components in automotive ECUs.
