Product details
Overview
SMBG5349AE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 12 V, ±10% tolerance (A suffix), and maximum regulator current of 7.5 mA at 25 °C. It uses a DO-215AA gull-wing package, supports visible solder joints, and operates across –65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature for voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5349AE3/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5349AE3/TR13 pinout, SMBG5349AE3/TR13 application, or SMBG5349AE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (RθJL = 25 °C/W), surge current rating (18.7 A), dynamic impedance (2.5 Ω), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating.
Technical Context
This device functions as a precision shunt voltage reference in DC-DC converter feedback networks and overvoltage protection circuits. Its 12 V Zener voltage is measured at IZT = 100 mA with dynamic impedance ZZT ≤ 2.5 Ω and reverse leakage IR ≤ 2.0 µA at VR = 9.1 V.
The SMBG5349AE3/TR13 exhibits low voltage drift versus temperature due to its specified TJ range (–65 °C to +150 °C) and thermal resistance RθJA = 90 °C/W on FR4 board. It withstands non-repetitive 8.3 ms half-sine surge currents up to 18.7 A per JEDEC test conditions.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5349B | Same electrical specs, axial T-18 package - higher RθJA (150 °C/W), no RoHS option | Through-hole assembly only; unsuitable for high-density SMT boards | Select when legacy through-hole production or manual prototyping is required |
| SMBJ5349B | Identical VZ, IZM, and ZZT; J-bend DO-214AA package - RθJA = 100 °C/W, same e3 RoHS option | Lower profile but less visible solder joints; slightly reduced thermal performance on FR4 | Select when board height constraints favor J-bend over gull-wing geometry |
Compared with 1N5349B and SMBJ5349B, the SMBG5349AE3/TR13 offers superior thermal management (RθJL = 25 °C/W), visible gull-wing solder joints for AOI, and guaranteed RoHS compliance - making it optimal for automated SMT production of industrial power supplies.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5349AE3/TR13?
The SMBG5349AE3/TR13 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±10%, indicated by the "A" suffix in the part number. Its nominal VZ is 12 V, meaning the actual breakdown voltage falls between 10.8 V and 13.2 V at IZT = 100 mA and TL = 25 °C. This tolerance is verified per JEDEC test standards and applies across the full operating temperature range.
Does SMBG5349AE3/TR13 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No, SMBG5349AE3/TR13 does not require dry packing. It is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it can be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions (≤30 °C / 60% RH) without baking prior to SMT reflow. This eliminates moisture-related popcorning risks and simplifies factory handling for SMBG5349AE3/TR13.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMBG5349AE3/TR13?
The SMBG5349AE3/TR13 is rated for a non-repetitive peak surge current (IZSM) of 18.7 A, defined as an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. This value is measured under standardized JEDEC conditions and reflects the device's ability to absorb transient energy without parametric shift or catastrophic failure - a key specification for overvoltage clamp applications using SMBG5349AE3/TR13.
How does the DO-215AA package of SMBG5349AE3/TR13 improve manufacturability?
The DO-215AA gull-wing package of SMBG5349AE3/TR13 enables automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints due to its exposed lead geometry. Unlike J-bend packages, gull-wing leads allow real-time verification of wetting, fillet shape, and coplanarity - reducing field failures and improving first-pass yield in high-volume SMT lines deploying SMBG5349AE3/TR13.
Is SMBG5349AE3/TR13 compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes, SMBG5349AE3/TR13 is fully compatible with lead-free reflow profiles. Its matte-tin (e3) plating supports peak temperatures up to 260 °C for 10 seconds, meeting IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D requirements. The device's thermal resistance and epoxy body are qualified for standard Pb-free reflow cycles, ensuring reliable interconnect formation without delamination or voiding in SMBG5349AE3/TR13 assemblies.
