Product details
Overview
SMBG5372BE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 62 V, ±5% tolerance (B suffix), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating (e3), and DO-215AA gull-wing package. It regulates voltage across wide current and temperature ranges (-65 °C to +150 °C), supports 20 mA test current (IZT), and delivers 400 A peak surge current (IZSM) for transient protection in power supply rails.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5372BE3/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5372BE3/TR13 pinout, SMBG5372BE3/TR13 application, or SMBG5372BE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (RθJL = 25 °C/W), maximum regulator current (IZM = 400 mA), and compliance with MIL-STD-750 ESD testing.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in DC power conditioning circuits. Its 62 V Zener voltage is specified at 20 mA (IZT), with dynamic impedance ZZT = 42 Ω and knee impedance ZZK = 76 Ω at 1 mA - indicating stable regulation near breakdown onset.
The DO-215AA gull-wing package enables visible solder joints and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity. Thermal performance is defined by RθJL = 25 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and RθJA = 90 °C/W (junction-to-ambient on FR4), supporting reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 62 V ±5% at IZT = 20 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection. |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling with adequate heatsinking. |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 42 Ω at IZT = 20 mA - determines voltage variation under load current changes. |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 400 mA - derived from PD/VZM; limits safe DC operating current at upper voltage tolerance. |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 400 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - enables robust transient suppression without failure. |
| Junction Temperature Range | -65 °C to +150 °C - supports industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.5 µA at VR = 47.1 V - ensures minimal standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks. |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode band marking; terminals are anode and cathode only. Cathode is banded end; device operates with banded end positive relative to anode.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Positive terminal during reverse-bias conduction | Connected to regulated rail or voltage reference node; sinks current during Zener breakdown. |
| Anode | Negative terminal during reverse-bias conduction | Connected to ground or lower-potential return path; completes Zener current loop. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N5372B equivalent | Identical electrical specs and test methods - enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs. |
| RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating (e3) | Meets lead-free assembly requirements without compromising solderability per MIL-STD-750. |
| Level 1 moisture sensitivity | No dry pack required - reduces handling cost and simplifies SMT line logistics. |
| Gull-wing leads (DO-215AA) | Enables visual solder joint inspection - improves process yield and field reliability verification. |
| High surge current rating | 400 A non-repetitive peak - protects downstream circuitry against lightning-induced or inductive-switching transients. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5372B | Same Zener voltage (62 V), ±5%, but Sn/Pb plating and DO-204AL (DO-41) axial package. | Requires through-hole mounting and lead forming; not suitable for automated SMT lines. | Select when legacy through-hole assembly or higher thermal mass is preferred. |
| SMBJ5372B | Same electrical specs, but DO-214AA (J-bend) package with RθJA = 100 °C/W - 11% higher thermal resistance than SMBG5372BE3/TR13. | Lower power derating above 70 °C ambient; less suitable for high-density enclosed enclosures. | Select when board space constraints favor J-bend footprint over gull-wing. |
Compared with 1N5372B and SMBJ5372B, SMBG5372BE3/TR13 offers superior manufacturability via gull-wing leads, tighter thermal management (RθJL = 25 °C/W), and RoHS compliance - making it optimal for new SMT designs requiring high-volume reliability and regulatory alignment.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SMBG5372BE3/TR13?
The 'B' suffix in SMBG5372BE3/TR13 indicates a ±5% Zener voltage tolerance. At 20 mA test current (IZT), this yields a guaranteed VZ range of 59.0 V to 65.1 V. This tolerance is verified per JEDEC test methods and applies across the full operating temperature range of -65 °C to +150 °C.
Does SMBG5372BE3/TR13 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No, SMBG5372BE3/TR13 has IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B moisture sensitivity level 1, meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ≤30 °C/60% RH without dry pack. The DO-215AA package uses void-free epoxy meeting UL94V-0 and does not absorb significant moisture during standard factory handling.
What is the maximum continuous power dissipation for SMBG5372BE3/TR13?
SMBG5372BE3/TR13 is rated for 5.0 W continuous power dissipation at lead temperature (TL) below 25 °C. When mounted on FR4 with 1 oz copper and recommended pad layout, its power rating derates linearly to 1.38 W at 25 °C ambient - governed by RθJA = 90 °C/W.
How is the cathode identified on SMBG5372BE3/TR13?
The cathode of SMBG5372BE3/TR13 is marked by a distinct color band on the DO-215AA package body. During normal Zener operation, the banded end must be held at a more positive potential than the anode - i.e., reverse bias - to enable controlled breakdown and voltage regulation.
What surge waveform does the 400 A IZSM rating for SMBG5372BE3/TR13 correspond to?
The 400 A peak surge current (IZSM) for SMBG5372BE3/TR13 is specified for a single non-repetitive 8.3 ms half-sine wave - the industry-standard test condition per IEC 61000-4-5 for surge immunity validation. This rating assumes proper PCB layout with low-inductance traces and adequate copper area.
