onsemi · Zener Diodes · SMA

1SMA5938BT3G from onsemi, in a SMA. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 CATHODE passive Cathode (polarity band) of the 36 V (34.2 V min to 37.8 V max at IZT = 10.4 mA) 1.5 W Zener diode, which is positive with respect to the anode in Zener regulation.
2 ANODE passive Anode of the Zener diode, which is the negative terminal in reverse Zener operation, with a forward voltage of 1.2 V max at IF = 200 mA.
