Product details
Overview
SMBG5377B/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 91 V, ±5% tolerance (B suffix), 15 mA test current (IZT), 75 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 52.5 mA maximum regulator current (IZM). It operates in power supply overvoltage protection and voltage reference circuits across industrial motor drives and telecom power modules.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5377B/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5377B/TR13 pinout, SMBG5377B/TR13 application, or SMBG5377B/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy at 15 mA, thermal resistance (RθJA = 90 °C/W on FR4), surge current rating (760 A @ 8.3 ms), moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), and gull-wing DO-215AA package compatibility with automated reflow.
Technical Context
This device functions as a precision voltage clamp in reverse-biased operation, maintaining stable 91 V regulation across 1–52.5 mA operating current range with minimal voltage drift versus temperature (−65 to +150 °C junction range). Its low dynamic impedance (75 Ω) ensures tight regulation under varying load conditions.
The SMBG5377B/TR13 uses a void-free UL94V-0 epoxy body with matte-tin RoHS-compliant plating, gull-wing leads for visible solder joint inspection, and meets MIL-STD-750 method 2026 solderability requirements. It withstands non-repetitive 8.3 ms half-sine surges up to 760 A without degradation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 91 V ±5% at 15 mA - defines clamping threshold for overvoltage protection circuits |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - requires thermal management when ambient exceeds 25 °C on FR4 |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 75 Ω at 15 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 52.5 mA - sets upper DC current limit before thermal runaway risk |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 760 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - enables robust transient suppression in power rails |
| Junction Temperature Range | −65 to +150 °C - supports operation in extended industrial and telecom environments |
| Moisture Sensitivity Level | MSL 1 - no dry pack or bake-out required prior to assembly |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode band marking; two-terminal unidirectional configuration. Cathode (banded end) must be held positive relative to anode for Zener operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Reverse-bias input terminal | Connected to higher-potential rail; clamps voltage when reverse voltage exceeds 91 V |
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference/return terminal | Typically tied to system ground or low-side reference point in shunt regulator topology |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N5377B equivalent | Identical electrical specs and test methods - enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs |
| Gull-wing lead form | Enables visual solder joint inspection and reliable reflow yield on fine-pitch PCBs |
| RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating | Meets IPC-J-STD-020B MSL 1 and MIL-STD-750 solderability standards |
| High surge current capability | 760 A non-repetitive peak withstand - suitable for lightning and EFT protection stages |
| Stable regulation over temperature | ±5% VZ tolerance maintained across −65 to +150 °C junction range |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5377B | Axial-leaded T-18 package; identical VZ, IZT, ZZT, and IZM specs; RθJA ≈ 50 °C/W (lower thermal resistance but through-hole mounting) | Requires through-hole PCB layout and wave soldering; unsuitable for high-density SMT assemblies | Select when legacy board reuse or manual prototyping favors axial leads and higher thermal dissipation is needed. |
| SMBJ5377B | DO-214AA J-bend package; same electrical specs; RθJA = 90 °C/W (identical), but different pad layout and lower surge rating (600 A vs. 760 A) | Limited surge robustness in high-energy transient environments; less visible solder joints than gull-wing | Choose only if existing DO-214AA footprint constraints prohibit DO-215AA adoption and surge stress is below 600 A. |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance and test current for SMBG5377B/TR13?
The SMBG5377B/TR13 has a nominal Zener voltage of 91 V with ±5% tolerance (denoted by the "B" suffix) and is specified at a test current (IZT) of 15 mA. This tolerance ensures predictable clamping behavior in overvoltage protection circuits where precise threshold control is required. The SMBG5377B/TR13 maintains this specification across its full operating temperature range.
Does SMBG5377B/TR13 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No, the SMBG5377B/TR13 has a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it does not require dry packing or baking prior to reflow soldering. Its void-free UL94V-0 epoxy encapsulation and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating ensure robust solderability without moisture-related popcorning risks during standard reflow profiles.
What is the maximum non-repetitive surge current rating for SMBG5377B/TR13?
The SMBG5377B/TR13 is rated for a maximum non-repetitive surge current (IZSM) of 760 A at an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. This rating reflects its capability to absorb high-energy transients-such as those from lightning-induced surges or inductive switching-without parametric shift or failure, making it suitable for primary-side protection in industrial power systems.
How does the thermal resistance of SMBG5377B/TR13 affect its power derating?
The SMBG5377B/TR13 has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 90 °C/W when mounted on an FR4 PCB with recommended footprint. At ambient temperatures above 25 °C, its 5.0 W power rating must be linearly derated-e.g., at 75 °C ambient, maximum allowable power drops to ~2.2 W. Proper copper pour and thermal vias are recommended to maintain safe junction temperatures.
Is SMBG5377B/TR13 compatible with JEDEC-standard 1N5377B designs?
Yes, the SMBG5377B/TR13 is explicitly stated in Microsemi documentation as electrically and functionally equivalent to the axial-leaded 1N5377B, with identical Zener voltage, test current, dynamic impedance, and surge ratings. While package and mounting differ, circuit-level substitution is supported without redesign-provided thermal and layout constraints are reviewed for the DO-215AA gull-wing footprint.
