Product details
Overview
SMBG5346A/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 9.1 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, 520 mA maximum regulator current (IZM), and operates across –65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5346A/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5346A/TR13 pinout, SMBG5346A/TR13 application, or SMBG5346A/TR13 equivalent, key selection factors include its DO-215AA gull-wing package, 7.5 µA reverse leakage at 6.6 V, 1.2 V forward voltage at 1.0 A, and suitability for high-density PCB layouts requiring visible solder joints and Level 1 moisture sensitivity.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal silicon voltage reference operating in reverse-biased breakdown mode. Its Zener voltage is specified at 9.1 V with ±10% tolerance (suffix "A"), tested at 150 mA (IZT), and exhibits 2.0 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) under those conditions.
Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 25 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RθJA = 90 °C/W (junction-to-ambient on FR4 with recommended footprint), enabling 5.0 W power dissipation only when lead temperature remains below 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 9.1 V ±10% - stable regulation point at 150 mA, usable across wide current range (1–520 mA) |
| Test Current (IZT) | 150 mA - standardized bias point for VZ and ZZT measurement |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 2.0 Ω - low AC resistance ensures minimal voltage variation under load transients |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 520 mA - maximum DC current delivering full 5 W at VZ = 9.1 V × 1.1 = 10.01 V |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 7.5 µA @ 6.6 V - low off-state current minimizes standby power loss |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.2 V @ 1.0 A - enables use as clamp or series rectifier in dual-role designs |
| Junction Temp Range | –65 °C to +150 °C - supports automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode band marking; terminals are anode (unbanded end) and cathode (banded end); polarity must be observed-cathode is positive relative to anode during Zener operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference/Return Node | Connected to lower-potential rail; forms current return path during reverse conduction |
| Cathode | Regulated Output Node | Banded terminal; held at stable 9.1 V above anode when reverse-biased above breakdown threshold |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N5346B Equivalent | Identical electrical specs and testing per JEDEC standard-enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs |
| Gull-Wing Leads | Visible solder joints enable automated optical inspection (AOI) and simplify rework on dense PCBs |
| Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 | No dry pack or baking required before reflow-reduces manufacturing overhead and handling risk |
| RoHS Compliant Option | e3 suffix available; matte-tin plating meets lead-free assembly requirements without sacrificing solderability |
| High Surge Withstand | 9.2 A non-repetitive half-sine surge (8.3 ms) protects downstream circuitry from transient overvoltages |
Applications
| Power Supply Voltage Clamp | Overvoltage Protection Circuit |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Clamping 12 V rail against overshoot during load dump in automotive ECUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Two-terminal shunt regulator absorbing excess energy to hold rail ≤9.1 V. Use Value: Prevents damage to 10 V-rated microcontrollers using only one passive component with no control logic. |
Use Scenario: Protecting analog sensor inputs from ESD and induced transients in industrial PLC modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-acting voltage limiter diverting surge current away from sensitive ADC front-ends. Use Value: Achieves <10 ns response with 9.2 A surge rating-no additional TVS needed for IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 compliance. |
| Reference Voltage Source | Current-Limited Bias Generator |
Use Scenario: Providing stable 9.1 V reference for op-amp comparators in battery management systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision DC voltage node with low dynamic impedance (2.0 Ω) minimizing load-induced drift. Use Value: Enables ±0.5% output stability over 1–100 mA load range-superior to resistor-divider alternatives. |
Use Scenario: Generating fixed bias current for LED drivers or transistor amplifiers via series resistor + Zener. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Constant-voltage sink establishing predictable IBIAS = (VIN − 9.1 V)/RSET. Use Value: Delivers repeatable 150 mA nominal current with <±2% variation across temperature and input ripple. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5346B | Same VZ, IZT, ZZT, and IZM; axial T-18 package instead of DO-215AA surface mount | Requires through-hole PCB layout and wave soldering; unsuitable for high-density SMT assemblies | Select when legacy through-hole design or manual prototyping is preferred over automated SMT placement |
| SMBJ5346B | Identical electrical specs but J-bend (DO-214AA) package; same 9.1 V ±5% tolerance and 520 mA IZM | Lower profile than SMBG but lacks gull-wing visibility; slightly higher RθJA (100 °C/W vs. 90 °C/W) | Choose when board height is constrained and AOI visibility is less critical than thermal margin |
Compared with SMBG5346A/TR13, 1N5346B requires PCB redesign for through-hole mounting, while SMBJ5346B trades gull-wing inspectability for marginally reduced thermal resistance-both remain functionally aligned for 9.1 V regulation but differ in manufacturability and thermal deployment.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5346A/TR13?
The "A" suffix in SMBG5346A/TR13 specifies a ±10% Zener voltage tolerance, meaning the measured VZ falls between 8.19 V and 10.01 V at 150 mA test current and 25 °C. This tolerance is verified per JEDEC test methods and applies across the full operating temperature range.
Does SMBG5346A/TR13 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No. SMBG5346A/TR13 has IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B moisture sensitivity level 1, confirming it is not hygroscopic and may be mounted directly from reel without baking or dry pack-reducing process steps and handling risk in high-volume SMT lines.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMBG5346A/TR13?
SMBG5346A/TR13 is rated for 9.2 A peak non-repetitive surge current (IZSM) under an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform, as defined in the datasheet. This value is derived from its 5 W power rating and thermal mass, enabling robust transient suppression without derating.
How does the DO-215AA package of SMBG5346A/TR13 differ from DO-214AA?
The DO-215AA package used by SMBG5346A/TR13 features gull-wing leads for visible solder joints and AOI compatibility, whereas DO-214AA (used in SMBJ5346B) uses J-bend leads. Both share identical electrical specs, but DO-215AA offers superior thermal resistance (RθJA = 90 °C/W vs. 100 °C/W) on FR4 boards.
Is SMBG5346A/TR13 RoHS compliant?
SMBG5346A/TR13 is offered in both Sn/Pb and RoHS-compliant versions; the TR13 reel packaging does not indicate compliance by itself. To ensure RoHS compliance, verify the full part number includes the "e3" suffix (e.g., SMBG5346Ae3/TR13) or confirm material declaration with Aetrix Electronics prior to order.
