Product details
Overview
SMBG5344B/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 8.2 V, ±5% tolerance (B suffix), 150 mA test current (IZT), 1.5 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 580 mA maximum regulator current (IZM). It regulates voltage in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and reference voltage generation under broad temperature and current conditions.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5344B/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5344B/TR13 pinout, SMBG5344B/TR13 application, or SMBG5344B/TR13 equivalent, this part serves as a RoHS-compliant, gull-wing DO-215AA packaged Zener for precision voltage clamping and stabilization where thermal resistance junction-to-lead is critical at 25 °C/W.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse-biased breakdown mode with a specified Zener voltage of 8.2 V measured at 150 mA (IZT) and 30 °C lead temperature. Its low dynamic impedance (1.5 Ω) ensures minimal voltage variation across load current changes, while its 580 mA IZM rating supports robust surge handling when paired with adequate heat sinking.
The SMBG5344B/TR13 uses a void-free thermosetting epoxy case (UL94V-0), matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750 method 2026, and cathode polarity indicated by a band. It meets moisture sensitivity Level 1 per J-STD-020B-no dry pack required-and withstands 260 °C soldering for 10 s.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.2 V ±5% at 150 mA - defines stable regulation point in feedback or clamp circuits |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - requires thermal management on PCB to sustain full rating |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 1.5 Ω at 150 mA - ensures tight voltage regulation under varying load currents |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 580 mA - sets absolute DC current limit before thermal runaway risk |

| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 25 °C/W - indicates efficient heat transfer from junction to lead, critical for reliability |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 10 µA max at 5.9 V - confirms low off-state power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with two terminals: anode and cathode. Cathode identified by molded band; device operated with banded end positive relative to anode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5344B | Axial-leaded T-18 package; identical VZ, IZT, ZZT, and IZM specs; non-surface-mount form factor | Requires through-hole assembly and board space; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select when legacy through-hole production or manual prototyping is used |
| SMBJ5344B | DO-214AA J-bend package; same electrical specs but higher RθJA (100 °C/W vs. 90 °C/W); different footprint | Lower thermal performance on FR4; requires larger copper area for equivalent power handling | Select when DO-214AA footprint is standardized and thermal margin permits |
Compared with SMBG5344B/TR13, 1N5344B offers identical regulation performance in axial form but lacks SMT manufacturability, while SMBJ5344B shares electrical behavior but demands greater PCB thermal design effort due to inferior junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5344B/TR13?
The 'B' suffix in SMBG5344B/TR13 denotes ±5% Zener voltage tolerance. At 150 mA test current and 30 °C lead temperature, the actual VZ falls between 7.79 V and 8.61 V. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the T4-LDS-0246-1 datasheet and applies directly to SMBG5344B/TR13-not inferred from family data.
Can SMBG5344B/TR13 be used in place of 1N5344B?
Yes-SMBG5344B/TR13 is explicitly stated as electrically equivalent to 1N5344B with identical electrical characteristics and testing per JEDEC standards. However, SMBG5344B/TR13 uses a DO-215AA gull-wing package versus the axial T-18 of 1N5344B, so PCB layout and assembly process differ. The SMBG5344B/TR13 datasheet confirms this equivalence on page 1.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMBG5344B/TR13?
SMBG5344B/TR13 has a maximum non-repetitive Zener surge current (IZSM) of 10 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3. This value is measured under defined transient conditions and supports robust overvoltage clamping in automotive and industrial surge environments.
Is SMBG5344B/TR13 RoHS compliant?
Yes-SMBG5344B/TR13 carries the 'e3' RoHS compliance marking per the nomenclature block on page 2 of the datasheet. It features annealed matte-tin plating and meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements, with no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE above threshold limits.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-ambient for SMBG5344B/TR13?
The thermal resistance junction-to-ambient (RθJA) for SMBG5344B/TR13 is 90 °C/W when mounted on a standard FR4 PCB with 1 oz copper and the recommended pad layout (page 5). This value assumes natural convection cooling and is critical for calculating safe operating area under continuous 5 W dissipation.
