Product details
Overview
1SMA5924BT3 from onsemi is a 1.5 W surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 9.1 V, ±5% tolerance, 41.2 Ω maximum zener impedance at 7.0 mA test current, and 0.5 μA maximum leakage current at 7.28 V reverse voltage. It operates from −65 °C to +150 °C and is used for precision voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMA5924BT3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (50 °C/W junction-to-lead), low-profile SMA package compatibility, and AEC−Q101 qualification status for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference diode operating in reverse breakdown mode. Its zener voltage is specified at IZT = 7.0 mA with guaranteed min/typ/max values of 8.64 V / 9.1 V / 9.56 V and temperature coefficient optimized for stable regulation across industrial temperature ranges.
It features Class 3 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), Pb-free construction (G-suffix variant), and UL 94 V−0 flammability compliance. The SMA package (Case 403D−02) supports top-slide or bottom-board mounting with cathode polarity indicated by molded band.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.64–9.56 V @ IZT = 7.0 mA - defines regulated output voltage range under nominal bias |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 1.5 W @ TL = 75 °C - usable power handling with zero-lead-length thermal condition |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 41.2 Ω max @ IZT = 7.0 mA - determines regulation stiffness and AC ripple rejection |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 0.5 μA max @ VR = 7.28 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance (RJL) | 50 °C/W - enables thermal design with copper pad heatsinking for sustained 1.5 W operation |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - supports robust handling in automated SMT assembly environments |
| Operating Temperature | −65 °C to +150 °C - suitable for under-hood automotive and industrial ambient conditions |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C9V1 | 300 mW SOT-23 package; 9.1 V ±5%; ZZT = 60 Ω @ 5 mA | Lower power rating limits use to low-current biasing; not AEC−Q101 qualified | Select when board space is constrained and power dissipation ≤300 mW suffices |
| 1N4739A | 1 W DO-41 through-hole; 9.1 V ±5%; ZZT = 8 Ω @ 19 mA; no AEC−Q101 or Pb-free G-suffix | Requires through-hole assembly; lacks automotive qualification and RoHS compliance | Select only for legacy through-hole designs where reflow compatibility is not required |
Compared with BZX84-C9V1 and 1N4739A, the 1SMA5924BT3 provides higher power handling (1.5 W), superior thermal performance (50 °C/W RJL), and automotive-grade qualification-making it optimal for modern SMT-based power regulation where reliability and density are critical.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of the 1SMA5924BT3?
The 1SMA5924BT3 has a ±5% zener voltage tolerance, meaning its reverse breakdown voltage is guaranteed between 8.64 V and 9.56 V when tested at IZT = 7.0 mA and TA = 25 °C. This tolerance is explicitly defined in the Electrical Characteristics table and applies to all units regardless of marking suffix.
Is the 1SMA5924BT3 suitable for automotive applications?
The SZ1SMA5924BT3G variant of the 1SMA5924BT3 is AEC−Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, making it suitable for automotive applications such as engine control units and body electronics. The standard 1SMA5924BT3 (non-SZ prefix) is not AEC−Q101 qualified.
What is the maximum power dissipation of the 1SMA5924BT3 at 75°C lead temperature?
The 1SMA5924BT3 delivers 1.5 W maximum DC power dissipation at TL = 75 °C with zero lead length, derating linearly at 20 mW/°C above that temperature. This rating assumes a 1 in² copper pad on FR-4 board per datasheet Note 1.
Does the 1SMA5924BT3 have a Pb-free option?
Yes-the SZ1SMA5924BT3G variant is the Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) version of the 1SMA5924BT3, indicated by the "G" suffix in the part number and confirmed in the Ordering Information table and Device Marking section.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RJL) for the 1SMA5924BT3?
The thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RJL) for the 1SMA5924BT3 is 50 °C/W, measured under standardized zero-lead-length conditions. This value enables accurate thermal modeling when mounted on PCBs with appropriate copper thermal pads.
