Product details
Overview
SMBG5359C/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 24 V, ±2% tolerance (C suffix), and maximum regulator current of 100 mA at 25 °C junction temperature. It uses DO-215AA gull-wing package, delivers low dynamic impedance (3.5 Ω at 50 mA), and supports surge current up to 4.4 A (8.3 ms half-sine). It regulates voltage in power supply feedback loops and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5359C/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5359C/TR13 pinout, SMBG5359C/TR13 application, or SMBG5359C/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (RθJL = 25 °C/W), surge current rating, moisture sensitivity level (MSL Level 1), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision voltage reference in reverse-biased mode, maintaining stable output across wide current (50 mA test point) and temperature (–65 °C to +150 °C) ranges. Its low knee impedance (ZZK = 3.5 Ω @ 1 mA) ensures minimal voltage drift near breakdown threshold.
The DO-215AA gull-wing package enables visible solder joints and complies with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B MSL Level 1-no dry pack required. Thermal resistance junction-to-lead is 25 °C/W, enabling reliable 5 W dissipation with adequate heat sinking at lead temperature < 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 24 V ±2% at IZT = 50 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback networks |
| Max Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - requires thermal management via PCB copper pour or heatsink |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 3.5 Ω at IZT = 50 mA - ensures low voltage variation under load transients |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 100 mA - sets upper limit for continuous bias current without exceeding PD |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 4.4 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - withstands short-duration overvoltage events like ESD or load dump |
| Junction Temperature Range | –65 °C to +150 °C - supports operation in automotive under-hood and industrial environments |
| Moisture Sensitivity Level | MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020B - no baking or dry pack needed before reflow |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode indicated by band; banded end must be held positive relative to anode during operation. Leads are RoHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plated, solderable per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Positive terminal in reverse-bias regulation | Connected to regulated voltage node; polarity reversal causes forward conduction |
| Anode | Reference/ground return path | Typically tied to system ground or error amplifier input in feedback loop |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N5359B equivalent | Identical electrical specs and test methods - enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs |
| Gull-wing lead form | Visible solder joints for automated optical inspection (AOI) and rework accessibility |
| ±2% voltage tolerance (C suffix) | Enables tighter regulation than ±5% (B) or ±10% (A) variants in precision references |
| Non-ESD-sensitive | Qualified per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - no special handling required in assembly |
| RoHS-compliant matte-tin finish | Lead-free compatible with Pb-free reflow profiles; meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU |
Applications
| Voltage Reference in SMPS Feedback | Overvoltage Protection Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used in secondary-side feedback circuit of isolated DC-DC converters to regulate output voltage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode provides stable reference voltage to optocoupler input or TL431 cathode. Use Value: ±2% tolerance ensures output accuracy within ±1.5% over line/load/temperature; 3.5 Ω ZZT minimizes regulation error under dynamic load steps. |
Use Scenario: Placed across sensitive IC inputs or power rails to clamp transient overvoltages. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as shunt protector that conducts when rail exceeds 24 V, diverting surge current to ground. Use Value: 4.4 A IZSM rating handles 8.3 ms surges per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a; MSL Level 1 simplifies manufacturing flow. |
| Industrial Sensor Excitation | Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Input Conditioning |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Functions as low-drift voltage source in ratiometric measurement circuits. Use Value: –65 °C to +150 °C operating range supports deployment in oil & gas or factory automation; 25 °C/W RθJL allows direct PCB thermal coupling. |
Use Scenario: Mounted on PLC analog input modules to protect ADC front-ends from field-wiring transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt limiter clamping input voltage to 24 V before signal conditioning amplifiers. Use Value: Gull-wing leads enable high-density layout; RoHS-compliant finish satisfies industrial compliance requirements. |
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 VZ = 24 V, ±5% tolerance; axial T-18 package; higher RθJA = 125 °C/W | Through-hole mounting only; unsuitable for high-density SMT boards | Select when legacy through-hole design or manual prototyping is required |
| SMBJ5359C | Same VZ, ±2%, but DO-214AA J-bend package; RθJA = 100 °C/W vs. SMBG's 90 °C/W | Lower profile but less robust mechanical retention than gull-wing; no visible solder joint | Choose for space-constrained layouts where gull-wing footprint is unavailable |
Compared with SMBG5359C/TR13, 1N5359B requires PCB redesign for through-hole assembly and offers lower thermal performance, while SMBJ5359C sacrifices solder-joint visibility and mechanical reliability for reduced height-making SMBG5359C/TR13 optimal for automated SMT production requiring AOI and thermal robustness.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5359C/TR13?
The "C" suffix in SMBG5359C/TR13 specifies a ±2% Zener voltage tolerance at IZT = 50 mA and TL = 25 °C. This yields a guaranteed VZ range of 23.52 V to 24.48 V, tighter than ±5% (B) or ±10% (A) variants-critical for precision feedback and reference applications where regulation accuracy is paramount.
Can SMBG5359C/TR13 replace 1N5359B in existing designs?
Yes, SMBG5359C/TR13 is electrically equivalent to 1N5359B per Microsemi documentation, sharing identical VZ, IZT, ZZT, and IZM. However, it uses DO-215AA surface-mount packaging versus 1N5359B's axial T-18, so PCB layout and assembly process must be updated to accommodate gull-wing SMT placement and reflow.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMBG5359C/TR13?
SMBG5359C/TR13 has a non-repetitive peak surge current (IZSM) rating of 4.4 A for an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This enables reliable clamping of common automotive load-dump and inductive-switching transients without degradation.
Is SMBG5359C/TR13 RoHS compliant?
Yes, SMBG5359C/TR13 features RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating per EU Directive 2011/65/EU, confirmed by the "e3" marking variant and manufacturer documentation. It is compatible with Pb-free reflow profiles and requires no special handling for lead-free manufacturing.
What thermal resistance values apply to SMBG5359C/TR13?
SMBG5359C/TR13 has RθJL = 25 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RθJA = 90 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, FR4 board with recommended footprint). These values define thermal limits: full 5 W dissipation is only possible if lead temperature remains below 25 °C; at ambient 25 °C, derated power is ~1.38 W without enhanced cooling.
