Product details
Overview
1SMA5933BT3 from onsemi is a 1.5 W surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 22 V (±5%), maximum zener impedance of 17 Ω at 17.5 mA test current, and reverse leakage current ≤0.25 μA at 16.7 V. It operates from −65 °C to +150 °C and is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive power rail regulation and ESD-protected voltage clamping.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMA5933BT3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 22 V regulation tolerance, low 17 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, Pb-free SMA package compatibility with automated SMT assembly, and Class 3 (>16 kV) HBM ESD rating for robust board-level protection.
Technical Context
This device functions as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in DC power rails. Its zener breakdown is specified at IZT = 17.5 mA with VZ = 20.9–23.1 V, and it maintains stable regulation down to IZK = 0.5 mA where ZZK ≤ 650 Ω.
Thermal design is constrained by RJL = 50 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RJA = 250 °C/W (junction-to-ambient), requiring PCB copper thermal relief for sustained 1.5 W dissipation. The SMA package (Case 403D-02) supports top-slide or bottom-mount placement with flat handling surface and UL 94 V-0 flammability rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 20.9–23.1 V @ IZT = 17.5 mA - defines regulated output range under nominal bias |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 17 Ω max @ IZT - ensures minimal voltage deviation during load transients |
| Max DC Power Dissipation | 1.5 W @ TL = 75 °C - sets thermal limit for zero-lead-length mounting on FR-4 |
| Reverse Leakage Current | ≤0.25 μA @ VR = 16.7 V - guarantees low quiescent current in standby regulation |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | Class 3 (>16 kV) - enables direct integration into unshielded automotive sensor interfaces |
| Operating Temperature | −65 °C to +150 °C - supports under-hood and industrial control environments |
| Polarity Indicator | Cathode band - provides unambiguous orientation for automated optical inspection |
Pinout & Package
The 1SMA5933BT3 uses the SMA (DO-214AC) surface-mount package (Case 403D-02), measuring 4.06–4.57 mm in length (E), 2.29–2.92 mm in width (D), and 1.97–2.20 mm in height (A). Cathode is marked by a molded band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (Band End) | Zener Anode Connection Point | Connected to higher-potential rail; reverse-biased operation requires cathode at positive potential relative to anode |
| Anode (Opposite Band) | Zener Cathode Connection Point | Connected to ground or lower-potential node; completes reverse-bias path for regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Validated for automotive power management systems requiring PPAP documentation and stress testing |
| Low Profile SMA Package | Height ≤2.2 mm enables use in space-constrained modules and stacked PCB assemblies |
| Flat Handling Surface | Ensures consistent pick-and-place accuracy and reduces tombstoning risk during reflow |
| Pb-Free Construction | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 |
| UL 94 V-0 Flammability | Prevents flame propagation in high-density power supply enclosures and EV battery management units |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Industrial PLC Analog Input Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Regulating 24 V supply rail for microcontroller I/O buffers and CAN transceiver biasing in BCMs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener voltage clamp protecting downstream logic from load-dump transients up to ±35 V. Use Value: 22 V nominal breakdown with 17 Ω ZZT limits rail excursion to <25 V during 100 ms surges, preserving MCU reset integrity. | Use Scenario: Clamping 0–10 V analog sensor inputs against ESD events in factory-floor PLCs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary overvoltage protector placed before instrumentation amplifier input stage. Use Value: Class 3 (>16 kV) HBM rating absorbs contact discharge without degradation, eliminating need for external TVS cascading. |
| DC-DC Converter Feedback Reference | LED Driver Current Sense Bias |
Use Scenario: Providing stable 22 V reference for optocoupler feedback in isolated 48 V → 12 V flyback converters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision shunt regulator setting error amplifier reference point in secondary-side control loop. Use Value: ±5% VZ tolerance and 17 Ω ZZT ensure output voltage regulation within ±1.5% across line/load variations. | Use Scenario: Biasing current-sense resistor network in constant-current LED drivers for street lighting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage clamp limiting sense node swing during MOSFET switching transitions. Use Value: Low 0.25 μA leakage at 16.7 V prevents measurement offset drift in 100 μA–2 A sensing ranges. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4742A | Through-hole DO-41 package; 12 V nominal; 20 Ω ZZT @ 21 mA; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Not suitable for SMT production or automotive under-hood use; limited to prototyping and non-automotive power supplies | Select only for legacy through-hole designs where board real estate and reliability requirements are less stringent |
| BZX84-C22 | SOT-23 package; 22 V nominal; 55 Ω ZZT @ 5 mA; 300 mW power rating; no HBM ESD rating | Lower power handling and higher impedance reduce transient suppression capability in 24 V rail clamping | Prefer for low-current biasing where footprint is critical but surge immunity is secondary |
Compared with 1SMA5933BT3, the 1N4742A lacks SMT compatibility and automotive qualification, while the BZX84-C22 trades 1.5 W power handling and 17 Ω impedance for smaller size-making 1SMA5933BT3 optimal for high-reliability 22 V clamping where thermal margin and ESD robustness are essential.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage tolerance for 1SMA5933BT3?
The 1SMA5933BT3 has a zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, with minimum, nominal, and maximum values of 20.9 V, 22.0 V, and 23.1 V respectively, measured at IZT = 17.5 mA and thermal equilibrium. This tolerance is guaranteed per the datasheet's Note 3 and applies across the full operating temperature range when derated per thermal curves.
Is 1SMA5933BT3 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the 1SMA5933BT3 is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, as explicitly stated in the datasheet's Features section. Its construction, thermal ratings, and ESD performance meet automotive-grade requirements for under-hood and body electronics, including use in BCMs and power distribution units where reliability under thermal cycling and electrical stress is critical.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for 1SMA5933BT3 at 25°C ambient?
The 1SMA5933BT3 has a maximum DC power dissipation of 0.5 W at TA = 25°C, derating linearly at 4.0 mW/°C above that temperature. This value assumes use on an FR-4 board with onsemi's minimum recommended footprint; exceeding this limit without thermal relief risks junction overheating and parametric shift.
Does 1SMA5933BT3 have a Pb-free package option?
Yes, the "G" suffix in the ordering part number (e.g., SZ/1SMA5933BT3G) denotes the Pb-free version of 1SMA5933BT3. The datasheet confirms Pb-free packages are available and specifies compliance with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU, with soldering profiles aligned to JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1.
How is polarity indicated on the 1SMA5933BT3 package?
Polarity on the 1SMA5933BT3 is indicated by a molded cathode band on the SMA (DO-214AC) case, as shown in the Package Dimensions diagram on page 5 of the datasheet. This band aligns with Pin 1 (cathode) and must be oriented toward the higher-potential node in reverse-bias configuration to enable proper zener regulation.
