Product details
Overview
SMBG5359B/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 24 V, ±5% tolerance (B suffix), 3.5 Ω dynamic impedance at 50 mA test current, and maximum regulator current of 100 mA. It operates in the DO-215AA gull-wing package and is used for precision voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5359B/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5359B/TR13 pinout, SMBG5359B/TR13 application, or SMBG5359B/TR13 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal performance data, JEDEC-compliant packaging details, and validated alternative parts for industrial power management designs.
Technical Context
This device functions as a silicon planar Zener diode operating in reverse-biased breakdown mode. Its 24 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZT = 50 mA with 3.5 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and it maintains stable regulation across junction temperatures from –65 °C to +150 °C.
Thermal resistance is 25 °C/W junction-to-lead and 90 °C/W junction-to-ambient (on FR4 with recommended footprint). It supports surge currents up to 4.4 A (8.3 ms half-sine) and exhibits ≤0.5 µA reverse leakage at VR = 18.2 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 24 V ±5% at IZT = 50 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback networks |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - enables high-current regulation without external heatsink under lead-temperature control |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 3.5 Ω at IZT = 50 mA - ensures low output voltage variation under load transients |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 100 mA - sets absolute DC current limit for sustained operation at rated power |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.5 µA at VR = 18.2 V - guarantees minimal quiescent power loss in standby modes |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 4.4 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - withstands common AC line surges and inductive switching spikes |
| Junction Temperature Range | –65 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in automotive under-hood and industrial motor-control environments |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode indicated by band; anode and cathode terminals only; RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating; moisture sensitivity level 1 (no dry pack required).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Breakdown reference terminal | Connected to regulated output node; must be held positive relative to anode for Zener conduction |
| Anode | Reference ground/reference return | Typically tied to system ground or feedback divider low-side; completes reverse-bias path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N5359B equivalent | Identical electrical specs and test methods - enables drop-in replacement for legacy through-hole designs |
| Gull-wing leads (DO-215AA) | Visible solder joints and automated optical inspection compatibility - improves manufacturing yield in high-density PCBs |
| Level 1 moisture sensitivity | No dry-pack requirement or bake-out prior to reflow - reduces handling cost and avoids moisture-induced popcorning |
| High surge current rating | 4.4 A non-repetitive peak - protects downstream circuitry from transient overvoltages without external TVS |
| Low dynamic impedance | 3.5 Ω at 50 mA - minimizes output voltage deviation during load steps in closed-loop regulators |
Applications
| Switch-Mode Power Supply Feedback | Overvoltage Clamp for 24 V Rail |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Regulates output voltage in isolated flyback converters using optocoupler feedback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener reference in secondary-side error amplifier bias network.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5359B | Same 24 V ±5%, 5 W rating, but axial T-18 package with lead-forming requirements and higher RθJA (120 °C/W) | Requires through-hole mounting and manual assembly; unsuitable for automated SMT lines | Select when retrofitting legacy boards or where leaded mechanical robustness is prioritized over density |
| SMBJ5359B | Identical electrical specs and DO-214AA J-bend package; same 24 V ±5%, 5 W, 3.5 Ω ZZT, but RθJA = 85 °C/W vs. 90 °C/W | Compatible with standard SMT pick-and-place but requires different pad layout (J-bend vs. gull-wing) | Choose when existing design uses DO-214AA footprint and no rework of stencil/pad geometry is feasible |
Compared with SMBG5359B/TR13, 1N5359B demands through-hole assembly and offers inferior thermal performance, while SMBJ5359B matches electrically but mandates PCB layout adaptation for J-bend leads - making SMBG5359B/TR13 optimal for new high-density gull-wing designs requiring visible solder joints and IPC/JEDEC Level 1 handling.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5359B/TR13?
The "B" suffix in SMBG5359B/TR13 denotes a ±5% Zener voltage tolerance. At 24 V nominal, this corresponds to a guaranteed range of 22.8 V to 25.2 V when measured at IZT = 50 mA and TL = 25 °C. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the Microsemi datasheet T4-LDS-0246-1.
Does SMBG5359B/TR13 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No, SMBG5359B/TR13 has a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions without dry packing or baking. The device's void-free epoxy body and Level 1 classification eliminate moisture-related reflow defects such as popcorning - a key advantage over higher-MSL Zeners.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMBG5359B/TR13?
SMBG5359B/TR13 is rated for a non-repetitive peak surge current (IZSM) of 4.4 A, defined as the maximum value of an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. This rating is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table and enables reliable protection against common industrial transients like relay bounce or inductive kickback without derating.
How does the thermal resistance of SMBG5359B/TR13 compare between junction-to-lead and junction-to-ambient?
SMBG5359B/TR13 has RθJL = 25 °C/W and RθJA = 90 °C/W (on FR4 with recommended footprint). The 3.6× lower junction-to-lead resistance means heat transfers efficiently to the PCB copper via the gull-wing leads - making thermal design more predictable when using internal layers as heatsinks, unlike junction-to-ambient which depends heavily on board layout and airflow.
Is SMBG5359B/TR13 RoHS compliant?
Yes, SMBG5359B/TR13 carries the "TR13" suffix indicating tape-and-reel packaging and RoHS compliance per EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The device uses annealed matte-tin plating instead of Sn/Pb, and its compliance is explicitly stated in the Features section and Mechanical/Packaging description of the Microsemi datasheet.
