Product details
Overview
3EZ24D5G from ON Semiconductor is a 3 W axial-lead Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 24 V ±5%, maximum zener impedance of 31 Ω at 9 mA test current, and surge rating of 98 W for 1 ms. It operates from −65 °C to +200 °C and is used for voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in DC power supplies and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 3EZ24D5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal derating behavior, DO−41 package dimensions, leakage and impedance specs at IZT/IZK, and real-world selection guidance for discrete voltage reference design.
Technical Context
The 3EZ24D5G uses silicon-oxide passivated junction technology to achieve stable reverse breakdown with low dynamic impedance and high ESD robustness (Class 3, >16 kV HBM). Its thermal performance is defined by junction-to-lead resistance (θJL), with steady-state dissipation rated at 3 W up to 75 °C lead temperature and derated linearly above that.
It is specified for single-pulse non-repetitive surge handling per JEDEC standards (1/120 s sine-equivalent waveform), with peak surge power reaching 112 W at 1 ms pulse width. The cathode band polarity marking and DO−41 axial package support through-hole mounting in industrial power rails and analog reference nodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 22.8–25.2 V @ IZT = 9 mA - defines regulated output range under nominal bias |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 31 Ω max @ IZT = 9 mA - determines regulation accuracy under load transients |
| Max Steady Power (PD) | 3 W @ TL = 75 °C - sets thermal limit for continuous operation with 3/8″ lead length |
| Surge Power Rating | 98 W @ 1 ms pulse - supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.25 μA max @ VR = 18.2 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance reference paths |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) HBM - provides robustness against handling and board-level electrostatic discharge |
| Operating Temp Range | −65 °C to +200 °C - enables use in automotive under-hood, industrial motor control, and aerospace environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5352B | 24 V ±5%, 5 W rating, DO−41, higher ZZT (35 Ω @ 10 mA) | Higher power margin but larger thermal footprint; requires greater lead spacing for heat dissipation | Select when >3 W continuous dissipation is required and board layout allows increased copper area |
| BZX85C24 | 24 V ±5%, 1.3 W rating, DO−41, lower surge rating (40 W @ 1 ms) | Lower cost and smaller thermal mass, but insufficient for repetitive surge events above 40 W | Select only for low-energy, non-critical reference roles where 3EZ24D5G's 98 W surge headroom is unnecessary |
Compared with 1N5352B and BZX85C24, the 3EZ24D5G delivers optimal balance of 3 W steady-state power, 98 W surge immunity, and tight 31 Ω impedance-making it preferred for industrial 24 V systems requiring both precision and ruggedness without oversizing.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of the 3EZ24D5G?
The 3EZ24D5G has a zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, with a nominal value of 24 V and guaranteed range of 22.8 V to 25.2 V at IZT = 9 mA. This tolerance is marked by the "D5" suffix per ON Semiconductor's type designation system and applies across the full operating temperature range.
How does the 3EZ24D5G handle surge conditions?
The 3EZ24D5G supports a non-repetitive peak surge power of 98 W for 1 ms pulses per JEDEC standards. Its surge capability is validated in Figure 3 of the official datasheet and exceeds typical 1 W Zener diodes-enabling reliable clamping of inductive spikes and EFT bursts in 24 V systems.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for the 3EZ24D5G?
The 3EZ24D5G is rated for 3 W steady-state power dissipation at a lead temperature (TL) of 75 °C with 3/8″ lead length. Above 75 °C, it derates linearly at 24 mW/°C, reaching 1 W at 50 °C ambient-requiring appropriate heatsinking or airflow in high-temperature enclosures.
Is the 3EZ24D5G RoHS-compliant and Pb-free?
Yes, the 3EZ24D5G is available in Pb-free packaging compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. ON Semiconductor confirms that all electrical and thermal specifications apply identically to both standard and Pb-free versions, with no performance trade-offs.
What package type and polarity marking does the 3EZ24D5G use?
The 3EZ24D5G uses the DO−41 (Case 59−10) axial-leaded plastic package. Polarity is marked by a cathode band on the body; the banded end is the cathode, and the unmarked lead is the anode-critical for correct orientation in shunt regulator configurations.
