Product details
Overview
SMBG5369B/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 51 V, ±5% tolerance (B suffix), 25 mA test current (IZT), 27 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and maximum regulator current of 230 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 SMBG5369B/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5369B/TR13 pinout, SMBG5369B/TR13 application, or SMBG5369B/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (RθJL = 25 °C/W), surge current rating (IZSM = 2.5 A), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating compatibility with lead-free reflow.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference diode operating in reverse breakdown, delivering stable 51 V regulation across 10–230 mA operating current range. Its low dynamic impedance (27 Ω at 25 mA) ensures minimal voltage variation under load transients.
The DO-215AA gull-wing package provides visible solder joints and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity, eliminating dry-pack requirements. Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 25 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RθJA = 90 °C/W (junction-to-ambient on FR4).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 51 V ±5% at IZT = 25 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback networks |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - supports high-energy clamping without heatsink under controlled lead temp |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 27 Ω at IZT = 25 mA - limits output voltage deviation during current changes in regulation loop |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 230 mA - sets upper DC current limit before thermal runaway at rated power |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 2.5 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - withstands transient overvoltage events like ESD or load dump |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.5 µA at VR = 38.8 V - ensures negligible standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Temp Range | –65 to +150 °C - enables operation in automotive under-hood and industrial ambient environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|

| SMBJ5369B | Identical Zener parameters but DO-214AA J-bend package (smaller footprint, higher RθJA = 100 °C/W) | Limited thermal margin in high-power-density layouts due to reduced heat conduction path | Select when board area is constrained and peak power is below 3.5 W with adequate copper pour |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5369B/TR13?
The "B" suffix in SMBG5369B/TR13 specifies a ±5% Zener voltage tolerance, meaning the measured VZ at 25 mA test current falls between 48.45 V and 53.55 V. This tolerance is verified per JEDEC test methods and applies across the full operating temperature range of –65 °C to +150 °C.
Can SMBG5369B/TR13 be used in lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, SMBG5369B/TR13 features RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating and is qualified for lead-free reflow with a peak temperature of 260 °C for 10 seconds. Its DO-215AA package meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity, eliminating dry-pack requirements prior to assembly.
What is the maximum continuous current SMBG5369B/TR13 can handle?
SMBG5369B/TR13 has a maximum regulator current (IZM) of 230 mA at TL < 25 °C. At higher lead temperatures, derating applies per the power derating curve: for example, at TL = 75 °C, maximum IZM drops to approximately 150 mA to maintain 5 W dissipation within thermal limits.
How does SMBG5369B/TR13 compare to SMBJ5369B in thermal performance?
SMBG5369B/TR13 has RθJL = 25 °C/W, significantly better than SMBJ5369B's RθJL = 35 °C/W due to its gull-wing lead geometry enhancing heat conduction to PCB pads. This allows SMBG5369B/TR13 to sustain higher continuous power in thermally constrained layouts without additional copper pour.
Is SMBG5369B/TR13 suitable for overvoltage protection in 48 V systems?
Yes, SMBG5369B/TR13 is commonly deployed as a clamping device in 48 V telecom and industrial systems. With a 51 V Zener voltage and 2.5 A surge rating (8.3 ms half-sine), it reliably limits transients above 51 V while maintaining low leakage (<0.5 µA) during normal operation at 48 V.
