Product details
Overview
SMBG5345AE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 8.7 V ±10%, designed for precision voltage regulation in power supply rails and overvoltage protection circuits. It features 2.0 Ω dynamic impedance at 150 mA test current, 10 µA maximum reverse leakage at 6.25 V, and operates across –65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5345AE3/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5345AE3/TR13 pinout, SMBG5345AE3/TR13 application, or SMBG5345AE3/TR13 equivalent, this part serves as a RoHS-compliant, gull-wing DO-215AA packaged Zener for stable DC reference generation, transient suppression, and voltage clamping where ±10% tolerance and visible solder joints are acceptable.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal silicon Zener diode operating in reverse breakdown mode, delivering regulated voltage across its cathode–anode terminals under controlled current conditions. Its 8.7 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZT = 150 mA with 2.0 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) and 10 µA reverse leakage (IR) at VR = 6.25 V.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 25 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RθJA = 90 °C/W (junction-to-ambient on FR4), supporting 5.0 W dissipation only when lead temperature (TL) remains ≤25 °C. The DO-215AA gull-wing package enables optical solder inspection and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.7 V ±10% at IZT = 150 mA - defines stable regulation point for biasing or clamping circuits |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL ≤25 °C - requires thermal management via PCB copper or heatsinking to sustain full rating |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 2.0 Ω at IZT = 150 mA - low impedance ensures minimal voltage shift under load current variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 10 µA max at VR = 6.25 V - confirms tight regulation margin below breakdown threshold |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 545 mA - derived from PD/VZM, sets absolute DC current limit before thermal runaway |
| Junction Temperature Range | –65 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in automotive engine compartments and industrial control enclosures |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 9.5 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - withstands short-duration transients without degradation |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode indicated by band; anode and cathode terminals are accessible via visible solder joints on PCB pads per recommended footprint (A = 8.13 mm, B = 2.16 mm, C = 2.79 mm).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference ground node in Zener regulator configuration | Connected to system ground or lower-potential rail; reverse-biased relative to cathode during regulation |
| Cathode | Regulated output node in Zener regulator configuration | Banded end; supplies stable 8.7 V reference or clamps voltage spikes to protect downstream circuitry |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5345B | Identical electrical specs but axial T-18 package; no RoHS compliance (Sn/Pb plating) | Requires through-hole assembly and dry-pack handling; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select when legacy repair, manual prototyping, or compatibility with existing T-18 footprints is required |
| SMBJ5345B | Same Zener voltage and tolerance, but DO-214AA J-bend package; RθJA = 100 °C/W vs. 90 °C/W | Lower thermal efficiency on FR4; reduced surge current rating (8.6 A vs. 9.5 A) | Choose when DO-214AA footprint is standardized and marginal thermal margin is acceptable |
Compared with SMBG5345AE3/TR13, 1N5345B offers identical regulation but lacks SMT compatibility and RoHS compliance, while SMBJ5345B trades thermal performance and surge robustness for alternate gull-wing geometry - making SMBG5345AE3/TR13 optimal for high-reliability, lead-free production requiring visible solder joints and maximum transient immunity.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SMBG5345AE3/TR13?
The SMBG5345AE3/TR13 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±10%, meaning its breakdown voltage is guaranteed between 7.83 V and 9.57 V at IZT = 150 mA and TL = 25 °C. This tolerance is encoded by the "A" suffix in the part number and applies across the full operating temperature range of –65 °C to +150 °C.
Does SMBG5345AE3/TR13 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No, SMBG5345AE3/TR13 does not require dry packing because it carries IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B moisture sensitivity level 1. Its plastic encapsulation and void-free epoxy body eliminate moisture absorption concerns, allowing standard handling, storage, and reflow without baking or humidity-controlled packaging.
What is the maximum continuous current SMBG5345AE3/TR13 can handle?
The SMBG5345AE3/TR13 supports a maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) of 545 mA when operated at TL ≤25 °C. This value is calculated as PD/VZM = 5.0 W / 9.57 V and assumes adequate thermal conduction from leads to PCB copper; derating is required above 25 °C lead temperature.
How does SMBG5345AE3/TR13 compare to the 1N5345B in terms of electrical performance?
SMBG5345AE3/TR13 matches the 1N5345B's electrical specifications exactly - including VZ = 8.7 V ±10%, ZZT = 2.0 Ω, and IR = 10 µA - as confirmed by Microsemi's documentation stating equivalence to JEDEC 1N5333–1N5388B series. The difference lies solely in package (DO-215AA vs. T-18) and RoHS compliance (e3 vs. Sn/Pb).
What is the surge current rating of SMBG5345AE3/TR13 and how is it defined?
The SMBG5345AE3/TR13 has a non-repetitive peak surge current (IZSM) rating of 9.5 A, defined as the maximum amplitude of an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. This rating reflects its ability to absorb transient energy without parametric shift or catastrophic failure, making it suitable for automotive load-dump and industrial surge protection applications.
