Product details
Overview
1SMB5922B-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.0W surface-mount power Zener diode with nominal zener voltage 7.5V (±5%), 3mA test current, 50Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and ESD rating >16kV HBM. It provides precise voltage regulation in DC power rails and overvoltage protection circuits for industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMB5922B-13 datasheet, 1SMB5922B-13 pinout, 1SMB5922B-13 application, or 1SMB5922B-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (RθJA = 226°C/W), power derating above +25°C, and SMB package compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to clamp voltage at its specified VZ with tight ±5% tolerance and low dynamic impedance (50Ω at 3mA). Its 3.0W power dissipation rating applies at TL = +75°C, with linear derating of 40mW/°C above that temperature.
The device uses a copper alloy leadframe with matte tin plating, conforms to RoHS 3 and halogen/antimony-free "Green" standards, and features a cathode band polarity marker. Thermal resistance from junction to ambient is 226°C/W on FR-4 PCB per AP02001 pad layout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 7.5V nominal, 7.12–7.88V range at 3mA - ensures stable reference within ±5% under standard test conditions |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 3.0W at TL = +75°C - supports high-energy transient suppression in compact SMB footprint |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 50Ω at IZT = 3mA - minimizes output voltage variation under load changes |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 226°C/W - defines maximum junction temperature rise per watt on standard FR-4 board |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | >16kV - enables robust handling in automated manufacturing without additional ESD safeguards |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.5µA max at VR = 6V - guarantees low standby current in precision biasing applications |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.5V at IF = 200mA - relevant for series-connected protection configurations |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (Surface Mount Body), molded plastic case rated UL 94V-0, moisture sensitivity level 1, weight ≈0.096g. Cathode identified by band marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry point in forward bias; connected to lower-potential node in Zener operation | Required for proper reverse-bias orientation - incorrect placement causes open-circuit failure in regulation mode |
| Cathode | Current exit point in forward bias; connected to higher-potential node in Zener operation | Marked by visible band; must face voltage source positive rail to enable breakdown conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3.0W Power Handling | Enables single-device transient voltage suppression up to 200V peak pulse power (per Figure 10) without external heatsinking |
| ±5% Zener Tolerance | Reduces need for post-assembly calibration in 5V–12V system rails and feedback networks |
| ESD Class 3 (>16kV HBM) | Eliminates requirement for upstream ESD protection in board-level handling and reflow processes |
| Lead-Free & Halogen-Free | Meets IPC-J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity and EU RoHS 3 / "Green" compliance without derating penalties |
| SMB Package Compatibility | Supports 3000-unit tape-and-reel delivery and pick-and-place placement at ≥20,000 UPH rates |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C7V5 | 300mW rating, SOT-23 package, ±5% tolerance, 80Ω ZZT at 5mA | Lower power handling limits use to low-current biasing; unsuitable for >100mA surge clamping | Select when space-constrained PCBs require SOT-23 footprint and thermal load ≤300mW |
| 1N5340B | 5W rating, DO-15 through-hole package, ±5% tolerance, 10Ω ZZT at 120mA | Higher power and lower impedance but incompatible with SMT automation and dense layouts | Select when legacy through-hole assembly or >3W continuous dissipation is required |
Compared with BZX84-C7V5 and 1N5340B, the 1SMB5922B-13 uniquely balances 3.0W SMT-compatible power handling, 50Ω impedance, and ESD-hardened construction - making it optimal for modern industrial and automotive boards where reliability, density, and manufacturability intersect.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) for 1SMB5922B-13 at 25°C?
The maximum Zener current is calculated as PD/VZ = 550mW / 7.5V ≈ 73mA at TA = +25°C. This value decreases linearly above +25°C at 4.4mW/°C, reaching zero at approximately +155°C ambient.
Does 1SMB5922B-13 require a heatsink for 3.0W operation?
No heatsink is required for 3.0W operation if the device is mounted on an FR-4 PCB using Diodes Inc.'s AP02001 recommended pad layout (C = 4.30mm, X1 = 6.80mm) and the lead temperature (TL) is maintained at +75°C or below per datasheet Note 5.
How does the 7.5V zener voltage change with temperature?
Per Figure 2 in DS32125 Rev. 8-2, the temperature coefficient (TC) for a 7.5V Zener is approximately +3.5mV/°C. This results in a +0.35V increase over a 100°C range (−40°C to +60°C), yielding a practical VZ span of ~7.15V to 7.55V in typical operating conditions.
Can 1SMB5922B-13 be used in parallel for higher power handling?
No - Zener diodes exhibit negative temperature coefficients and mismatched VZ tolerances, causing current hogging and thermal runaway when paralleled. For higher power, select a single higher-rated device like 1N5340B (5W) or implement active regulation instead.
