Product details
Overview
1SMF5920BT1G from onsemi is a 2.5 W unidirectional Zener diode in SOD−123FL package, with nominal Zener voltage 6.2 V, maximum clamping voltage 10.0 V at 24.8 A peak pulse current, and ESD rating >16 kV (HBM). It serves as overvoltage protection and voltage reference in portable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMF5920BT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), dynamic impedance (2.0 Ω @ 60.5 mA), thermal resistance (350 °C/W), and RoHS-compliant matte tin lead finish.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) with Zener breakdown mechanism, optimized for fast response to ESD and surge events. Its 6.2 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 60.5 mA test current, with tight 5.89–6.51 V min/max range and low 2.0 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT.
Thermal design relies on its 350 °C/W junction-to-ambient resistance (FR-4 board, minimum pad), derating linearly above 25°C. The SOD−123FL package supports reflow up to 260°C and meets MSL 1, enabling high-volume automated assembly without moisture sensitivity concerns.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5920BRLG | Same Zener voltage (6.2 V), but DO-41 through-hole package; higher RJA (500 °C/W); no MSL rating | Requires wave soldering; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts or thin-profile devices | Select when legacy through-hole assembly or manual repair is required; avoid for new SMT designs |
| SMBJ6.0A | 6.0 V working voltage, 100 W peak power, larger SMB package; higher VC (10.3 V); higher capacitance | Better for high-energy surges (IEC 61000-4-5), but excessive for ESD-only use; may distort high-speed signals | Choose for industrial AC-line surge suppression; not recommended for USB or sensor analog lines |
Compared with 1SMF5920BT1G, 1N5920BRLG trades miniaturization for ease of hand-soldering, while SMBJ6.0A sacrifices footprint and signal fidelity for higher surge energy handling-making 1SMF5920BT1G optimal for space-constrained, ESD-critical consumer interfaces.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1SMF5920BT1G?
The 1SMF5920BT1G has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, with a specified range of 5.89 V to 6.51 V at 60.5 mA test current and 25°C ambient. This tight tolerance ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots and supports precise voltage reference use in sensor biasing and regulator feedback paths without additional trimming components.
Does the 1SMF5920BT1G meet RoHS and REACH requirements?
Yes, the 1SMF5920BT1G is Pb-free, halogen-free/BFR-free, and fully compliant with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006. Its matte tin lead finish and void-free thermosetting epoxy package meet UL 94 V-0 flammability standards, supporting environmentally regulated manufacturing in Europe, North America, and Asia.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the 1SMF5920BT1G during a surge event?
The 1SMF5920BT1G has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 10.0 V at its rated peak pulse current of 24.8 A (10/1000 μs waveform). This value is guaranteed across temperature and process variation, ensuring downstream ICs operating at 5 V or 3.3 V remain within safe absolute maximum ratings during transient overvoltage events.
Can the 1SMF5920BT1G be used for bidirectional ESD protection?
No, the 1SMF5920BT1G is a unidirectional Zener diode designed for single-polarity clamping (anode-to-ground configuration). For bidirectional protection-such as on AC-coupled signal lines like HDMI or Ethernet-use a dedicated bidirectional TVS like the ESD9X5.0ST5G. Using two 1SMF5920BT1G devices in series opposition is not recommended due to mismatched leakage and breakdown characteristics.
What is the thermal resistance of the 1SMF5920BT1G when mounted on a standard FR-4 PCB?
When mounted on a standard FR-4 PCB with recommended minimum pad size, the 1SMF5920BT1G exhibits a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RJA) of 350 °C/W. This value assumes natural convection and defines the maximum steady-state power dissipation (2.5 W at 25°C) before junction temperature exceeds 150°C. Derating is linear at 2.9 mW/°C above 25°C ambient.
