Product details
Overview
SMBG5371CE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 60 V, ±2% tolerance (C suffix), and maximum Zener current of 79 mA at 25 °C ambient on FR4 board. It features gull-wing DO-215AA packaging, 25 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance, and is rated for surge currents up to 350 A (8.3 ms half-sine). It serves as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5371CE3/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5371CE3/TR13 pinout, SMBG5371CE3/TR13 application, or SMBG5371CE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, dynamic impedance at test current, surge current capability, thermal resistance, and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating compatibility with lead-free reflow.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse-biased breakdown mode, delivering stable regulation across wide current (20 mA IZT) 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 meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity-no dry pack required. Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 25 °C/W and RθJA = 90 °C/W on FR4 with recommended footprint.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 60 V ±2% at 20 mA - precise regulation point for feedback networks |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - requires heatsinking or board copper for sustained operation |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 40 Ω max at 20 mA - low AC impedance improves transient response in regulation |
| Max Reverse Current (IR) | 0.5 µA at 43 V - negligible leakage below knee voltage |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 350 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - withstands high-energy transients without failure |
| Junction Temperature Range | –65 to +150 °C - suitable for automotive under-hood and industrial environments |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 25 °C/W - enables direct thermal path to PCB copper or heatsink tab |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode band marking. Cathode terminal is banded end; device operates with cathode positive relative to anode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference/ground node | Connected to system ground or lower-potential rail; forms return path for Zener current |
| Cathode | Regulated output node | Banded terminal; supplies stable 60 V reference when reverse-biased above VZ |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N53xxB Equivalent | Identical electrical specs to through-hole 1N5371B - enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs |
| RoHS Compliant Matte-Tin Plating | e3 suffix indicates annealed matte-tin finish - compatible with Pb-free reflow profiles up to 260 °C |
| Level 1 Moisture Sensitivity | No dry pack required - simplifies handling and eliminates bake-out before assembly |
| Gull-Wing Lead Geometry | Visible solder fillets per IPC-A-610 - supports automated optical inspection (AOI) and reliability validation |

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, IZM, ZZT, and tolerance; no RoHS e3 marking | Requires axial-leaded PCB layout; not suitable for high-density SMT assemblies | Select when legacy through-hole manufacturing or manual prototyping is used |
| SMBJ5371B | Same DO-214AA J-bend package; identical electrical specs but higher RθJA (100 °C/W vs. 90 °C/W); non-RoHS default | Lower thermal efficiency on FR4; less suitable for continuous 5 W dissipation without enhanced copper | Select when DO-214AA footprint is already standardized and RoHS is not required |
Compared with SMBG5371CE3/TR13, 1N5371B offers identical regulation performance in through-hole form but lacks SMT manufacturability and RoHS compliance, while SMBJ5371B shares SMT compatibility but trades off thermal performance and environmental compliance for footprint reuse.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SMBG5371CE3/TR13?
The "C" suffix in SMBG5371CE3/TR13 denotes ±2% Zener voltage tolerance at 20 mA test current. This is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0246-1 Rev. 1, where SMBG5371B/C entries show VZ = 60 V with C tolerance. The tighter tolerance enables higher-accuracy regulation than ±5% (B) or ±10% (A) variants.
Does SMBG5371CE3/TR13 support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, SMBG5371CE3/TR13 supports lead-free reflow soldering. The "e3" suffix explicitly indicates RoHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plating, qualified per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 and rated for 260 °C peak solder temperature for 10 seconds, as stated in the Mechanical and Packaging section on page 2 of the datasheet.
What is the maximum Zener current (IZM) for SMBG5371CE3/TR13 at 25 °C ambient?
The maximum Zener current for SMBG5371CE3/TR13 is 79 mA at 25 °C ambient on FR4 board with recommended footprint. This value is listed in the Electrical Characteristics table (page 3) under "MAXIMUM REGULATOR CURRENT (IZM)" for SMBG5371B/C. It assumes 5 W power derating per Note 3 and accounts for ±2% tolerance at upper VZ limit.
How does the DO-215AA package of SMBG5371CE3/TR13 differ from DO-214AA?
The DO-215AA package of SMBG5371CE3/TR13 uses gull-wing leads, enabling visible solder fillets and AOI compatibility, whereas DO-214AA (used in SMBJ53xxB) has J-bend leads. Per the datasheet's "Also available in" note, both packages share identical electrical characteristics but differ mechanically-DO-215AA provides better thermal conduction via shorter lead paths and improved solder joint inspection.
Is SMBG5371CE3/TR13 moisture-sensitive, and does it require baking before assembly?
No, SMBG5371CE3/TR13 is not moisture-sensitive in a way that requires baking. It carries IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture classification, meaning it has unlimited floor life and no dry pack or bake-out is required prior to reflow, as confirmed in the Applications/Benefits section (page 1) and Mechanical/Packaging section (page 2) of the datasheet.
