Product details
Overview
1SMB5923BT3G from onsemi is a 3 W surface-mount Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 8.2 V, maximum Zener impedance of 45.7 Ω at 3.5 mA test current, and reverse leakage current ≤0.5 μA at 6.5 V. It features AEC-Q101 qualification (SZ variant), ESD rating >16 kV HBM, and UL 94 V-0 flammability compliance. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in DC power rails for automotive control modules.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMB5923BT3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (226 °C/W at TA = 25°C), junction temperature range (−65 to +150°C), and SMB package compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal, unidirectional voltage regulator in reverse-biased mode, maintaining stable output voltage across varying load currents within its 3 W steady-state power limit at TL = 75°C. Its Zener breakdown mechanism provides predictable clamping behavior with low dynamic impedance (45.7 Ω) at IZT = 3.5 mA.
The SMB (Case 403A) package enables top-side or bottom-side PCB mounting, with modified L-bend leads for enhanced solder joint reliability and flat handling surface for accurate placement. Thermal derating follows linear 4.4 mW/°C reduction above 25°C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 7.79–8.61 V (±5% tolerance at IZT = 3.5 mA; defines regulated voltage window) |
| Max Power Dissipation (PD) | 550 mW at TA = 25°C; derates to 3.0 W only at TL = 75°C with zero lead length |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 45.7 Ω max at IZT = 3.5 mA; determines regulation stiffness under small-signal AC load variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.5 μA at VR = 6.5 V; ensures minimal standby current in clamping applications |
| Thermal Resistance (RJA) | 226 °C/W (FR-4 board, recommended footprint); dictates required copper area for thermal management |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) per Human Body Model; supports robustness in automotive and industrial handling environments |
| Junction Temp Range | −65°C to +150°C; enables operation in under-hood automotive or high-ambient industrial settings |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1SMB5923BT3G?
The 1SMB5923BT3G has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, with a specified range of 7.79 V (min) to 8.61 V (max) at IZT = 3.5 mA and TL = 30°C. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official onsemi datasheet and applies to all devices in the 1SMB59xxBT3G series.
Can the 1SMB5923BT3G be used in automotive applications?
The standard 1SMB5923BT3G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, its automotive-grade counterpart SZ1SMB5923BT3G meets AEC-Q101 requirements and supports PPAP documentation. For non-certified automotive subsystems (e.g., cabin infotainment), 1SMB5923BT3G may be used subject to internal qualification-but full compliance requires the SZ-prefix variant.
What is the maximum power dissipation of the 1SMB5923BT3G at 25°C ambient?
The 1SMB5923BT3G has a maximum steady-state power dissipation of 550 mW at TA = 25°C, as stated in the Maximum Ratings table. This value decreases linearly by 4.4 mW/°C above 25°C ambient, reaching 3.0 W only at TL = 75°C with zero lead length-a condition requiring direct heatsinking to the PCB copper plane.
Does the 1SMB5923BT3G have a specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance?
Yes-the 1SMB5923BT3G has a thermal resistance from junction-to-ambient (RJA) of 226 °C/W, measured on an FR-4 board using the recommended footprint. This value assumes standard JEDEC test conditions and must be used with actual board layout and copper area to estimate real-world junction temperature rise.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the 1SMB5923BT3G?
The 1SMB5923BT3G specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.5 μA at VR = 6.5 V, per the Electrical Characteristics table. This low leakage ensures minimal quiescent current draw in voltage reference or clamping circuits operating near but below the Zener knee voltage.
