Product details
Overview
SMBG5387BE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a surface-mount 5 W Zener diode with nominal breakdown voltage of 190 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 and withstands high surge stresses in power supply protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SMBG5387BE3/TR13 datasheet, SMBG5387BE3/TR13 pinout, SMBG5387BE3/TR13 application, or SMBG5387BE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, surge current rating (1850 A), thermal resistance (RθJA = 90 °C/W), and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage clamp in DC power rails. Its 190 V Zener voltage is specified at IZT = 5.0 mA, with dynamic impedance ZZT = 450 Ω and maximum regulator current IZM = 25 mA under TL < 25 °C conditions.
The SMBG5387BE3/TR13 features low leakage (IR ≤ 0.5 µA at VR = 137 V), stable regulation across -65 to +150 °C junction temperature, and robust surge capability (non-repetitive 8.3 ms half-sine IZSM = 1850 A) per JEDEC standards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 190 V ±5% at IZT = 5.0 mA - defines clamping threshold for overvoltage protection |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 5.0 W at TL < 25 °C - requires thermal management on PCB for sustained operation |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 450 Ω at IZT = 5.0 mA - determines regulation stiffness under varying load current |
| Max Surge Current (IZSM) | 1850 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - enables transient suppression in AC/DC front-end stages |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 90 °C/W on FR4 board - dictates minimum copper area needed for thermal relief |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.5 µA at VR = 137 V - ensures minimal standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Temp Range | -65 to +150 °C - supports industrial and automotive under-hood applications |
Pinout & Package
DO-215AA gull-wing surface-mount package with cathode band marking; terminals are anode and cathode - no internal circuitry or multi-pin configuration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current sink terminal during forward conduction | Connected to lower-potential node in reverse-biased Zener operation |
| Cathode | Current source terminal during Zener breakdown | Banded end; connected to higher-potential rail for voltage regulation/clamping |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC 1N5387B equivalent | Identical electrical specs and test methods - enables drop-in replacement in legacy designs |
| Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 | No dry pack required - simplifies SMT handling and eliminates bake-out step |
| Gull-wing lead form | Visible solder joints - supports automated optical inspection (AOI) and rework accessibility |
| RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating | Lead-free assembly compatible - meets IPC-J-STD-020B and environmental compliance requirements |
| High surge current rating | 1850 A non-repetitive peak - protects downstream circuitry against lightning-induced transients |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Protection | Telecom Line Card Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Clamping induced surges on 48 V DC distribution buses in PLC cabinets exposed to switching transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode operating in reverse breakdown to clamp voltage spikes above 190 V.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5387B | Same Zener voltage (190 V), ±5%, but axial T-18 package - no surface-mount compatibility | Requires through-hole assembly; unsuitable for high-density PCB layouts | Select when legacy through-hole manufacturing or manual prototyping is required |
| SMBJ5387B | Same electrical specs but DO-214AA J-bend package - different footprint and thermal path (RθJA = 80 °C/W) | Higher thermal performance on same board area; slightly reduced surge margin (1750 A vs. 1850 A) | Prefer for new SMT designs needing improved thermal dissipation and AOI-compatible leads |
Compared with SMBG5387BE3/TR13, 1N5387B requires board redesign for through-hole mounting, while SMBJ5387B offers better thermal resistance but lower surge rating - both serve as functional alternatives when package constraints permit.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SMBG5387BE3/TR13?
The SMBG5387BE3/TR13 has a ±5% Zener voltage tolerance, indicated by the "B" suffix in its part number. This means its breakdown voltage is guaranteed between 180.5 V and 199.5 V at the specified test current of 5.0 mA and junction temperature of 25 °C, per Microsemi's T4-LDS-0246-1 datasheet.
Does SMBG5387BE3/TR13 require dry packing before SMT assembly?
No, SMBG5387BE3/TR13 does not require dry packing. It carries Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (MSL 1) per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it can be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions and placed directly into reflow without baking - a key advantage for high-volume manufacturing.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMBG5387BE3/TR13?
The SMBG5387BE3/TR13 is rated for a non-repetitive peak surge current (IZSM) of 1850 A, defined as an 8.3 ms half-sine waveform. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the official Microsemi datasheet T4-LDS-0246-1.
How does the DO-215AA package of SMBG5387BE3/TR13 differ from DO-214AA?
The DO-215AA gull-wing package of SMBG5387BE3/TR13 provides visible solder joints for AOI and rework, whereas DO-214AA uses J-bend leads. Thermal resistance differs: RθJA = 90 °C/W for DO-215AA vs. 80 °C/W for DO-214AA - making SMBJ5387B slightly more thermally efficient on identical PCBs.
Is SMBG5387BE3/TR13 compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes, SMBG5387BE3/TR13 features RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating (e3 suffix) and is qualified for lead-free reflow up to 260 °C for 10 seconds, as stated in the Maximum Ratings table. Its void-free epoxy body meets UL94V-0 flammability requirements for safety-critical applications.
