Product details
Overview
SMBG5371B/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 60 V, ±5% tolerance (B suffix), 20 mA test current (IZT), 40 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and maximum regulator current of 79 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 SMBG5371B/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5371B/TR13 pinout, SMBG5371B/TR13 application, or SMBG5371B/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (RθJL = 25 °C/W), surge current rating (IZSM = 350 A), moisture sensitivity level (MSL Level 1), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference operating in reverse breakdown, maintaining stable output voltage across wide current (1–79 mA) and temperature (−65 to +150 °C) ranges. Its low dynamic impedance (40 Ω at 20 mA) ensures minimal voltage variation under load transients.
The DO-215AA gull-wing package enables visible solder joints and supports high-density PCB layouts. Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 25 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RθJA = 90 °C/W (junction-to-ambient on FR4 with recommended footprint), enabling reliable 5 W operation only when lead temperature (TL) is maintained below 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 60 V ±5% at 20 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection and feedback reference. |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W @ TL < 25 °C - requires thermal management via copper pour or heatsinked leads to sustain full rating. |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 40 Ω at IZT = 20 mA - determines voltage regulation stability under varying load currents. |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 79 mA - maximum continuous DC current before exceeding 5 W power limit at VZ = 63 V (upper tolerance). |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 350 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - withstands transient overvoltages without degradation. |
| Junction Temperature Range | −65 to +150 °C - supports operation in industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |
| Moisture Sensitivity | IPC/JEDEC Level 1 - no dry pack or baking required prior to reflow. |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode indicated by band; operated with banded end positive relative to opposite end. Leads are tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plated per MIL-STD-750 method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reverse-biased reference terminal | Connected to system ground or lower-potential node; carries full regulator current during conduction. |
| Cathode | Zener voltage output terminal | Provides regulated 60 V reference; marked with band; connected to feedback node or protected circuit input. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N5371B equivalent | Identical electrical characteristics and testing to through-hole 1N5371B - enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs. |
| Gull-wing lead form | Enables visual solder joint inspection and reduces tombstoning risk during reflow on fine-pitch PCBs. |
| Level 1 moisture sensitivity | Eliminates dry-pack requirement and baking steps - reduces manufacturing cost and handling complexity. |
| High surge current rating | 350 A non-repetitive peak withstand capability - protects downstream circuitry from lightning-induced or inductive-switching transients. |
| Stable voltage vs. current | Low ZZT (40 Ω) and flat VZ vs. IZ curve - maintains tight regulation across 1–79 mA operating range. |
Applications
| Switch-Mode Power Supply Feedback | Industrial Motor Drive Overvoltage Clamp |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5371B | Through-hole DO-41 package; identical VZ, IZT, ZZT, and IZM specs; same ±5% tolerance. | Requires axial-leaded PCB layout and wave soldering; not suitable for high-density SMT assembly. | Select when retrofitting legacy through-hole boards or where manual repairability is prioritized over board space. |
| SMBJ5371B | Same DO-214AA (J-bend) package; identical electrical specs but different mechanical footprint and thermal path (RθJA = 80 °C/W). | Better suited for high-volume pick-and-place but requires revised pad layout and has slightly higher junction-to-ambient resistance. | Select when existing design uses DO-214AA footprint or when tighter RθJA is needed with optimized copper pour. |
Compared with SMBG5371B/TR13, 1N5371B offers identical regulation performance in through-hole format but sacrifices SMT manufacturability, while SMBJ5371B retains surface-mount compatibility with altered thermal and mechanical behavior-neither is pin-compatible due to differing packages.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance and test current for SMBG5371B/TR13?
The SMBG5371B/TR13 has a Zener voltage of 60 V with ±5% tolerance (denoted by the "B" suffix) and is specified at a test current (IZT) of 20 mA. This tolerance ensures the actual breakdown voltage falls between 57 V and 63 V under standard test conditions at TL = 25 °C, making it suitable for precision feedback and clamping applications where moderate accuracy is required.
Does SMBG5371B/TR13 require dry packing or baking before reflow soldering?
No, SMBG5371B/TR13 does not require dry packing or baking before reflow soldering. It is rated IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Moisture Sensitivity Level 1, meaning it can be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions and placed directly into reflow ovens without preconditioning-reducing manufacturing overhead and eliminating moisture-related defects.
What is the maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) for SMBG5371B/TR13 and how is it calculated?
The maximum continuous Zener current (IZM) for SMBG5371B/TR13 is 79 mA. This value is derived from the rated 5 W power dissipation and the upper limit of the Zener voltage tolerance: IZM = PD / VZM = 5.0 W / 63 V ≈ 79 mA. Operation above this current at full VZ risks exceeding the power rating unless thermal management lowers junction temperature.
How does the DO-215AA package of SMBG5371B/TR13 differ from DO-214AA (SMBJ) in thermal performance?
The DO-215AA package of SMBG5371B/TR13 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 25 °C/W and junction-to-ambient (RθJA) of 90 °C/W on FR4, whereas the DO-214AA (SMBJ) variant has RθJA = 80 °C/W but different lead geometry. The gull-wing leads of DO-215AA improve solder joint visibility and reduce tombstoning, but its higher RθJA means more copper area is needed to sustain 5 W operation compared to DO-214AA.
Is SMBG5371B/TR13 RoHS compliant and what plating option does it use?
Yes, SMBG5371B/TR13 is RoHS compliant and uses annealed matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750 method 2026. The "TR13" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481-1-A (12 mm tape), and the device meets lead-free soldering requirements up to 260 °C for 10 seconds, supporting modern Pb-free reflow profiles.
