Product details
Overview
SMBG5346C/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 9.1 V, ±2% tolerance (C suffix), and maximum Zener current of 520 mA at 25 °C. It uses DO-215AA gull-wing package, features 2.0 Ω dynamic impedance at 150 mA test current, and is rated for surge current up to 9.2 A (8.3 ms half-sine). It serves as precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5346C/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5346C/TR13 pinout, SMBG5346C/TR13 application, or SMBG5346C/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (RθJL = 25 °C/W), surge capability (IZSM = 9.2 A), moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse-bias breakdown mode with tightly controlled VZ = 9.1 V at IZT = 150 mA, exhibiting low dynamic impedance (ZZT = 2.0 Ω) and minimal voltage drift over temperature (TJ = –65 to +150 °C). Its DO-215AA gull-wing leads enable visual solder joint inspection and support automated reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020B.
The SMBG5346C/TR13 delivers stable regulation across wide current range (IZK = 1.0 mA to IZM = 520 mA), maintains <5 µA reverse leakage at VR = 6.9 V, and withstands non-repetitive surge currents up to 9.2 A without degradation-critical for transient suppression in DC-DC converter feedback paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 9.1 V ±2% at IZT = 150 mA - ensures tight regulation in voltage reference circuits. |
| Power Dissipation | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - supports high-current clamping with adequate heat sinking. |
| Dynamic Impedance | 2.0 Ω at IZT = 150 mA - minimizes output voltage variation under load transients. |
| Max Surge Current | 9.2 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - protects downstream circuitry from short-duration overvoltage events. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJL = 25 °C/W - enables predictable junction temperature rise when mounted on PCB lead frame. |
| Moisture Sensitivity | Level 1 per J-STD-020B - eliminates dry-pack requirement and simplifies handling/storage. |
| Reverse Leakage | <7.5 µA at VR = 6.9 V - ensures low standby power loss in bias networks. |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode band marking; terminals are anode and cathode only. Cathode is identified by colored band; device must be operated with banded end positive relative to anode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Breakdown terminal | Connected to regulated voltage node; reverse-biased during operation. |
| Anode | Reference/ground terminal | Typically tied to system ground or feedback reference point in regulator circuits. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N5346B equivalent | Identical electrical specs and testing to legacy through-hole 1N5346B - enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs. |
| RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating | Meets IPC/JEDEC solderability standards (method 2026) - ensures reliable reflow joints without Pb-based processes. |
| Gull-wing lead geometry | Enables optical solder-joint inspection and reduces tombstoning risk during SMT assembly. |
| MSL Level 1 rating | No dry pack or baking required before assembly - lowers manufacturing overhead and avoids moisture-induced defects. |
| High surge current rating | 9.2 A non-repetitive peak - provides robust transient immunity in industrial power supplies without external TVS. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5346B | Through-hole DO-41 package; identical VZ, IZM, and ZZT; no MSL rating. | Requires manual or wave soldering; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts. | Select when retrofitting legacy through-hole boards or prototyping without SMT capability. |
| SMBJ5346C | J-bend DO-214AA package; same VZ, tolerance, and power rating; RθJA = 90 °C/W vs. 25 °C/W (RθJL). | Higher thermal resistance limits sustained current in compact layouts without copper pour. | Select when footprint compatibility with DO-214AA is required or when lower-cost J-bend assembly is preferred. |
Compared with SMBG5346C/TR13, 1N5346B offers identical regulation performance but lacks SMT manufacturability and MSL Level 1 handling, while SMBJ5346C trades gull-wing inspectability and superior thermal conduction for J-bend footprint compatibility and lower assembly cost.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5346C/TR13?
The SMBG5346C/TR13 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±2%, indicated by the "C" suffix in the part number. This means its breakdown voltage is guaranteed between 8.92 V and 9.28 V when measured at IZT = 150 mA and TL = 25 °C. This tighter tolerance supports precision regulation in feedback networks where stability margins are critical.
Does SMBG5346C/TR13 require dry packing before SMT assembly?
No, SMBG5346C/TR13 does not require dry packing. It carries Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it can be stored and assembled indefinitely at standard ambient conditions without baking or desiccant packaging-reducing handling complexity and avoiding moisture-related defects like popcorning.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMBG5346C/TR13?
The SMBG5346C/TR13 is rated for a non-repetitive peak surge current (IZSM) of 9.2 A, defined as an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. This rating is verified per Microsemi's qualification testing and enables robust transient suppression in DC-DC converter outputs and industrial control I/O lines without additional TVS devices.
How does the DO-215AA gull-wing package benefit SMBG5346C/TR13 in production?
The DO-215AA gull-wing package of SMBG5346C/TR13 allows real-time optical inspection of solder fillets during post-reflow AOI, reducing defect escape rates. Its lead geometry also minimizes tombstoning during reflow and improves coplanarity tolerance versus J-bend alternatives-key for high-yield automated SMT lines.
Is SMBG5346C/TR13 RoHS compliant?
Yes, SMBG5346C/TR13 is RoHS compliant, using annealed matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750 method 2026. The "e3" designation is implied by the "C" suffix in Microsemi's nomenclature system for this family, confirming compliance with EU Directive 2011/65/EU and exemption-free lead-free requirements.
