Product details
Overview
1SMB5933B-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a 3.0W surface-mount power Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 22V (±5%), dynamic impedance of 17Ω at 17.5mA test current, and maximum reverse leakage of 0.25µA at 16.7V. It provides precise voltage regulation in DC power rails, overvoltage protection circuits, and reference voltage generation for industrial power supplies and automotive control modules.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMB5933B-13 datasheet, 1SMB5933B-13 pinout, 1SMB5933B-13 application, or 1SMB5933B-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (226°C/W), ESD rating (>16kV HBM), power derating above +25°C, and SMB package compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load and line conditions. Its 22V nominal zener voltage is specified at 17.5mA test current, with typical temperature coefficient near +4.5mV/°C per Figure 2 of DS32125 Rev. 8–2.
Designed for surface-mount PCB mounting on FR-4 substrate using Diodes Inc.'s AP02001 pad layout, it delivers 3.0W power dissipation at TL = +75°C and derates linearly at 40mW/°C above that temperature, with junction-to-terminal thermal resistance of 25°C/W.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 22V nominal, 20.9–23.1V range at IZT = 17.5mA - defines regulated output voltage under standard test conditions |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 3.0W at TL = +75°C - maximum continuous power handling when mounted on heatsink or thermally enhanced PCB |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 17Ω at IZT = 17.5mA - low dynamic impedance ensures minimal voltage variation with load current changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.25µA max at VR = 16.7V - guarantees negligible standby current in voltage reference or clamp applications |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 226°C/W - determines junction temperature rise above ambient for thermal design margining |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16kV) per HBM - enables robust handling in automated manufacturing without additional ESD protection |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - industry-standard surface-mount outline with cathode band polarity marking and 0.096g mass |
Pinout & Package
The 1SMB5933B-13 uses an SMB (DO-214AA) molded plastic package with cathode band marking on the top surface. Polarity is unambiguous: the banded end is the cathode; the opposite end is the anode. Device weight is approximately 0.096 grams.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry terminal in forward bias; connected to lower-potential node in Zener regulation | Must be held at ≤ (VZ − 0.7V) to avoid forward conduction during regulation |
| Cathode | Current exit terminal in reverse breakdown; connected to higher-potential node | Provides stable 22V reference relative to anode when reverse-biased above VZ |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3.0W power rating | Enables use in higher-current regulation and transient clamping without external heat sinking |
| ±5% VZ tolerance | Reduces need for post-assembly trimming in precision reference designs |
| ESD Class 3 (>16kV HBM) | Eliminates requirement for upstream ESD protection in board-level handling and reflow environments |
| Lead-free, halogen- and antimony-free "Green" construction | Meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity Level 1 requirements |
| SMB package with UL 94V-0 flammability rating | Supports high-density PCB layouts and complies with safety standards for industrial enclosures |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5933B (DO-41) | Same 22V zener voltage and ±5% tolerance, but through-hole DO-41 package; 1.0W power rating | Not suitable for high-density SMT designs; requires manual insertion or wave soldering | Select only if legacy through-hole assembly or lower-power operation (<1W) is required |
| BZX84-C22 (SOT-23) | 22V zener, ±5%, but rated for 300mW; dynamic impedance ~50Ω at 5mA; smaller SOT-23 footprint | Limited to low-current references and signal-level clamping; cannot handle >100mA surge | Choose for space-constrained signal conditioning, not power rail regulation or transient suppression |
Compared with 1N5933B and BZX84-C22, the 1SMB5933B-13 uniquely combines 3.0W power handling, SMB SMT compatibility, and sub-20Ω impedance-making it the only option among the three capable of regulating 150mA loads while surviving automotive load-dump events.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous reverse current the 1SMB5933B-13 can sustain without degradation?
The device is rated for a maximum zener current (IZM) of 136mA at 22V, derived from PD = 3.0W. At this current, junction temperature remains within safe limits when mounted per AP02001 pad layout. Exceeding 136mA continuously risks thermal runaway unless active cooling is applied.
Does the 1SMB5933B-13 require external series resistance in a shunt regulator configuration?
Yes - a series current-limiting resistor is mandatory to set IZ within 17.5mA ±20% for nominal VZ accuracy and prevent exceeding 136mA IZM. Resistor value is calculated as R = (VIN − 22V) / IZ, where IZ must account for both load current and zener bias current.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy over –40°C to +125°C?
Per Figure 2 in DS32125, the 22V part exhibits a typical +4.5mV/°C temperature coefficient. Over a 165°C range, this introduces ±0.74V drift - approximately ±3.4% of nominal VZ. For high-accuracy applications, compensation or tighter TC devices (e.g., temperature-compensated Zeners) are recommended.
Can the 1SMB5933B-13 be used for bidirectional ESD protection?
No - it is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for reverse-bias regulation. For bidirectional ESD protection, TVS diodes such as the D28V0L4UP (SMB) or SP1003 (SOD-323) are appropriate. The 1SMB5933B-13 conducts only in reverse breakdown and forward-biases at ~1.5V, offering no symmetrical clamping.
