Product details
Overview
SMBG5374CE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 75 V, ±2% tolerance (C suffix), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and DO-215AA gull-wing package. It regulates voltage across wide current and temperature ranges in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5374CE3/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5374CE3/TR13 pinout, SMBG5374CE3/TR13 application, or SMBG5374CE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, surge current rating (620 A), thermal resistance (25 °C/W junction-to-lead), and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown with tightly controlled dynamic impedance (45 Ω at IZT = 20 mA) and low knee impedance (63 Ω at 1 mA). Its Zener voltage is specified at TL = 30 °C with measurement delay of 40 ±10 ms after DC current application.
The SMBG5374CE3/TR13 exhibits minimal voltage variation versus current due to low dynamic impedance and high specified maximum regulator current (IZM = 63 mA). It withstands non-repetitive 8.3 ms half-sine surge currents up to 620 A per JEDEC test conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 75 V ±2% at IZT = 20 mA - precise reference for 72–78 V regulation window |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - requires thermal management on lead frame for full rating |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 45 Ω at IZT = 20 mA - ensures stable output under load transients |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 63 mA - defines maximum continuous DC current before thermal derating |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 620 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - supports transient overvoltage clamping in power rails |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.5 µA at VR = 54 V - negligible standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 25 °C/W - enables efficient heat transfer to PCB copper via gull-wing leads |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode indicated by band; banded end must be biased positive relative to anode for Zener operation. Weight: 0.1 g. Moisture sensitivity level: MSL 1 - no dry pack required.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference/Return Node | Connected to lower-potential side of regulated circuit; forms return path for Zener current |
| Cathode | Zener Output Terminal | Banded end; connected to higher-potential rail; provides stable 75 V reference when reverse-biased |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| JEDEC 1N5374B equivalent | Guarantees identical electrical characteristics and test methodology to legacy through-hole counterpart |
| High surge current capability | 620 A peak rating supports robust protection against lightning-induced or switching transients |
Applications
| Power Supply Reference | Overvoltage Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stable 75 V reference in isolated DC-DC converter feedback loop. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode providing precision voltage reference for optocoupler-based error amplifier. Use Value: ±2% tolerance ensures tight output regulation; low dynamic impedance minimizes feedback loop noise injection. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5374B | Axial-leaded T-18 package; same VZ, IZT, and tolerance but higher RθJA (125 °C/W) | Requires through-hole assembly and larger board area; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select when legacy through-hole compatibility or manual prototyping is prioritized over space constraints |
| SMBJ5374B | DO-214AA J-bend package; identical electrical specs but different thermal profile (RθJL = 30 °C/W) | Lower thermal efficiency than SMBG variant; may require larger copper pour for same power dissipation | Choose when existing DO-214AA footprint reuse is critical and 5 W derating margin permits |
Compared with SMBG5374CE3/TR13, 1N5374B offers identical regulation performance but lacks surface-mount compatibility, while SMBJ5374B shares SMT fit but delivers lower thermal performance-making SMBG5374CE3/TR13 optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding 5 W Zener applications.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SMBG5374CE3/TR13?
The SMBG5374CE3/TR13 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±2%, denoted by the "C" suffix in its part number. This means its measured VZ falls between 73.5 V and 76.5 V at IZT = 20 mA and TL = 30 °C. The tighter tolerance supports precision regulation in feedback loops and calibration references where ±5% devices would introduce unacceptable error.
How does the DO-215AA package of SMBG5374CE3/TR13 improve manufacturability?
The DO-215AA gull-wing package of SMBG5374CE3/TR13 enables visible solder joint inspection during automated optical inspection (AOI), reducing post-reflow defect escapes. Its lead geometry also provides mechanical stability during reflow and supports reliable thermal conduction to PCB copper, achieving RθJL = 25 °C/W-superior to J-bend alternatives like SMBJ5374B.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMBG5374CE3/TR13?
The SMBG5374CE3/TR13 is rated for a non-repetitive peak surge current (IZSM) of 620 A, defined per an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. This rating allows it to safely clamp high-energy transients in telecom and industrial power rails without degradation, provided the surge event remains within JEDEC-defined limits and does not exceed duty cycle constraints.
Is SMBG5374CE3/TR13 compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes, SMBG5374CE3/TR13 features RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating and is qualified for lead-free reflow with a peak solder temperature of 260 °C for 10 seconds. Its moisture sensitivity level is MSL 1, eliminating the need for dry packing or baking prior to assembly-streamlining high-volume SMT production.
How does the thermal resistance of SMBG5374CE3/TR13 affect PCB layout?
The SMBG5374CE3/TR13 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 25 °C/W, meaning effective heat removal depends on copper area connected to its gull-wing leads. To sustain full 5 W dissipation, the PCB must provide adequate copper pour on both anode and cathode pads per Microsemi's recommended footprint (8.13 mm × 2.16 mm pad dimensions), avoiding thermal bottlenecks in trace routing.
