Product details
Overview
SMBG5361B/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 27 V, ±5% tolerance (B suffix), 50 mA test current (IZT), 5.0 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and maximum regulator current of 120 mA (IZM). 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 SMBG5361B/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5361B/TR13 pinout, SMBG5361B/TR13 application, or SMBG5361B/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy at IZT = 50 mA, thermal resistance (RθJL = 25 °C/W), surge current capability (IZSM = 4.1 A), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating compatibility with lead-free reflow.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference operating in reverse breakdown, with specified regulation performance at IZT = 50 mA and TL = 30 °C. Its Zener voltage is measured 40 ±10 ms after DC current application to minimize thermal transient effects.
The SMBG5361B/TR13 exhibits low dynamic impedance (5.0 Ω) near its knee region and maintains stable regulation across -65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range. It withstands non-repetitive 8.3 ms half-sine surge currents up to 4.1 A and meets MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 for ESD insensitivity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 27 V ±5% at IZT = 50 mA - defines regulated output voltage under nominal bias conditions |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - requires thermal management when mounted on FR4 with recommended footprint |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 5.0 Ω at IZT = 50 mA - determines voltage deviation under load current variation |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 120 mA - maximum continuous DC current before exceeding 5 W rating at high-end VZ tolerance |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 4.1 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure |
| Junction Temperature Range | -65 °C to +150 °C - enables operation in automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 25 °C/W - indicates efficient heat conduction from junction to lead, critical for reliability under sustained load |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5361B | Through-hole DO-41 package; identical VZ, IZT, ZZT, and IZM specs; same ±5% tolerance. | Requires PCB layout change; not suitable for high-density SMT assemblies. | Select when legacy through-hole assembly or manual repair is required. |
| SMBJ5361B | J-bend DO-214AA package; identical electrical specs but higher RθJA (100 °C/W vs. 90 °C/W); same RoHS compliance. | Lower thermal performance on FR4; may require derating above 70 °C ambient. | Select when existing DO-214AA footprint is fixed and thermal margin permits. |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5361B/TR13?
The "B" suffix in SMBG5361B/TR13 denotes a ±5% Zener voltage tolerance. At IZT = 50 mA and TL = 30 °C, the measured VZ falls between 25.65 V and 28.35 V. This tolerance is verified per JEDEC test methods and applies across the full operating temperature range of -65 °C to +150 °C.
Does SMBG5361B/TR13 support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, SMBG5361B/TR13 features RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating and is rated for solder temperatures up to 260 °C for 10 seconds, fully compatible with standard Pb-free reflow profiles. The device's moisture sensitivity level is IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1, eliminating pre-assembly baking requirements.
What is the maximum continuous current SMBG5361B/TR13 can handle?
The maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) for SMBG5361B/TR13 is 120 mA when operated at TL < 25 °C. At higher lead temperatures, power must be derated per the curve in Figure 1 of the datasheet; for example, at TL = 75 °C, IZM reduces to approximately 85 mA to maintain 5 W dissipation limit.
How does SMBG5361B/TR13 compare to SMBJ5361B in thermal performance?
SMBG5361B/TR13 has RθJL = 25 °C/W and RθJA = 90 °C/W (on FR4), while SMBJ5361B has RθJA = 100 °C/W. The gull-wing leads of SMBG5361B/TR13 provide superior heat conduction to PCB copper, enabling higher sustained power handling in compact layouts without additional heatsinking.
Is SMBG5361B/TR13 suitable for transient voltage suppression?
Yes-SMBG5361B/TR13 is rated for 4.1 A non-repetitive surge current (IZSM) using an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. It is routinely deployed in automotive load-dump protection and industrial I/O clamping where fast response and high-energy absorption are required, provided series impedance limits peak power dissipation.
