Product details
Overview
1SMA5944BT3G from onsemi is a 1.5 W surface-mount Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 62 V (±5%), maximum Zener impedance of 6.0 Ω at 100 mA test current, and reverse leakage current ≤0.25 μA at 47.1 V. It features AEC-Q101 qualification, ESD rating >16 kV (HBM), and Pb-free SMA package for automotive and industrial voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMA5944BT3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this device serves as a precision shunt regulator in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage clamping circuits, and reference voltage generation where stable 62 V regulation and low dynamic impedance are required.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain a stable voltage across its terminals under varying load and line conditions. Its 62 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZT = 100 mA, with guaranteed min/max limits of 58.9 V and 65.1 V respectively, and temperature coefficient optimized for mid-range Zener voltages.
The device uses a planar-diffused silicon junction in an SMA (DO-214AC) package with cathode band marking, enabling reliable thermal dissipation up to 1.5 W at TL = 75°C and operation from −65°C to +150°C. Its 6.0 Ω Zener impedance at IZT ensures minimal output voltage variation under dynamic load changes.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1SMA5944BT3G?
The 1SMA5944BT3G has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, with minimum, nominal, and maximum values specified as 58.9 V, 62 V, and 65.1 V respectively at IZT = 100 mA and thermal equilibrium. This tolerance is guaranteed per the device marking code "844B" and applies across the full operating temperature range.
Is 1SMA5944BT3G suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the 1SMA5944BT3G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, making it suitable for automotive applications including engine control units, body control modules, and ADAS power management. Its −65°C to +150°C operating range and robust ESD rating (>16 kV HBM) meet stringent automotive reliability requirements.
What is the maximum DC Zener current (IZM) for 1SMA5944BT3G?
The maximum DC Zener current IZM for 1SMA5944BT3G is 24 mA, calculated from PD = 1.5 W and VZ = 62 V (IZM = PD/VZ). This value reflects safe continuous operation at rated power; actual usable current depends on thermal derating above 75°C lead temperature.
How does the Zener impedance of 1SMA5944BT3G affect regulation performance?
The 6.0 Ω Zener impedance (ZZT) of 1SMA5944BT3G directly determines output voltage stability under load variation: for every 1 mA change in Zener current, output voltage shifts by ~6 mV. This low impedance enables tight regulation in feedback circuits where load transients exceed ±10 mA.
What package type does 1SMA5944BT3G use and what are its key mechanical dimensions?
The 1SMA5944BT3G uses the SMA (DO-214AC) surface-mount package with case outline 403D−02. Key dimensions include length D = 4.06–4.57 mm, width E = 2.29–2.92 mm, height A = 1.97–2.20 mm, and cathode identified by a molded band. The flat handling surface supports accurate pick-and-place placement.
