Product details
Overview
3EZ24D5RLG 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 across −65°C to +200°C and is used for overvoltage protection and voltage reference in DC power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 3EZ24D5RLG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection factors include its DO−41 package thermal performance, 24 V regulation tolerance, 0.25 mA leakage at 18.2 V, and Class 3 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM).
Technical Context
This device uses silicon-oxide passivated junction technology to achieve stable Zener breakdown with low dynamic impedance and high surge robustness. Its thermal design relies on lead-to-ambient conduction, with steady-state power derating starting at 75°C for 3/8″ lead length.
The 3EZ24D5RLG exhibits a negative temperature coefficient typical of mid-voltage Zeners (~−1.5 mV/°C near 24 V), requiring junction temperature estimation via measured lead temperature and transient thermal resistance curves per Figure 2.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 22.8 V min / 24 V nom / 25.2 V max at IZT = 9 mA - defines regulation band under standard test conditions |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 31 Ω max at IZT = 9 mA - determines output voltage variation under load current changes |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 0.25 mA max at VR = 18.2 V - sets minimum reverse bias threshold before significant conduction |
| Surge Power Rating | 98 W for 1 ms pulse - enables transient overvoltage clamping without failure |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) per Human Body Model - ensures robustness during handling and board assembly |
| Operating Temperature | −65°C to +200°C - supports deployment in automotive engine compartments and industrial control enclosures |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO−41 (Case 59−10), axial-leaded plastic package with cathode indicated by polarity band. Lead length standardized at 3/8″ for thermal ratings; mounting position unrestricted.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5352BRLG | Same 24 V nominal Zener voltage but 5 W rating; larger DO−15 package; ZZT = 11 Ω at 45 mA | Better suited for higher-power regulation where thermal margin is critical | Select when >3 W continuous dissipation or lower impedance is required; requires PCB layout change |
| BZX85C24 | 24 V Zener in DO−41 package but 1.3 W rating; ZZT = 40 Ω at 5 mA; no Class 3 ESD rating | Lower-cost option for non-critical, low-energy clamping | Choose only for cost-sensitive consumer applications with benign ESD environments |
Compared with 1N5352BRLG and BZX85C24, the 3EZ24D5RLG delivers optimal balance of 3 W power handling, 31 Ω impedance, and Class 3 ESD robustness in the industry-standard DO−41 footprint-making it preferred for industrial and automotive-grade 24 V regulation where reliability and surge immunity are prioritized over raw power or lowest cost.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 3EZ24D5RLG?
3EZ24D5RLG has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, specified as 22.8 V minimum, 24 V nominal, and 25.2 V maximum at 9 mA test current (IZT). This tolerance is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and reflects the "D5" suffix designation per ON Semiconductor's ordering nomenclature.
Can the 3EZ24D5RLG be used in surface-mount designs?
No-the 3EZ24D5RLG is an axial-leaded DO−41 device (Case 59−10) and is not compatible with SMT reflow processes. It requires through-hole mounting with 3/8″ lead length for rated 3 W power dissipation. For SMT alternatives, consider ON Semiconductor's NZ9F24V or similar SOD-123 packaged Zeners.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for the 3EZ24D5RLG?
The maximum reverse leakage current for 3EZ24D5RLG is 0.25 mA at VR = 18.2 V (75% of nominal Zener voltage), per the Electrical Characteristics table. This value is guaranteed at TA = 25°C and remains below 1 mA up to 125°C ambient per typical curves in the datasheet.
How does the 3EZ24D5RLG handle repetitive surge events?
The 3EZ24D5RLG is rated for non-repetitive 98 W surges at 1 ms duration. For repetitive pulses, derating must follow the transient thermal resistance curve (Figure 2) and duty cycle limits. Continuous operation above 3 W requires heatsinking or forced-air cooling to maintain TJ ≤ 200°C.
Is the 3EZ24D5RLG RoHS-compliant?
Yes-3EZ24D5RLG is manufactured in Pb-free compliance per JEDEC J-STD-609 and meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The "RLG" suffix explicitly denotes RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and green packaging per ON Semiconductor's product marking convention.
