Diodes can be divided into various types according to different aspects, among which Zener diode is the most widely used type. In particular, SMBJ5337C/TR13 is a kind of single Zener diode. This paper will discuss the application field and working principle of this device.

Application Field of SMBJ5337C/TR13

SMBJ5337C/TR13 is designed for ESD protection. It is used to protect sensitive electronic equipment from electrostatic discharge damage. In addition, it can be used in other applications too, such as in switching power supplies, battery chargers, lightning protection circuits and transistors. It has a wide operating temperature range (-55°C to +150°C) and a high surge power capability. That is why it is especially suitable for use in automotive applications.

Working Principle of SMBJ5337C/TR13

The working principle of SMBJ5337C/TR13 is relatively simple and easy to understand. When the anode has a positive potential and the cathode has a negative potential, the diode can begin to conduct, allowing current to flow through the device. This process is called forward bias. In addition, the device has a special feature which is the reverse bias. When the anode has a negative potential and the cathode has a positive potential, the diode will become a “closed switch” and prevent current from flowing.

SMBJ5337C/TR13 has a Zener voltage of 5.3V. When the device’s voltage surpasses 5.3V, it will enter the Zener region, providing a stable voltage source, protecting electronic equipment from harm. In addition, it has a high power capability and a low reverse leakage current which helps to protect the device from excessive power.

Conclusion

SMBJ5337C/TR13 is a single Zener diode which is mainly used for ESD protection. It has a wide temperature range and high power capability, making it suitable for automotive applications. The working principle of the diode is relatively simple, when the anode has a positive potential and the cathode has a negative potential; the device starts to conduct and current can flow through it. When the device’s voltage surpasses 5.3V, it will enter the Zener region, providing a stable voltage source. In conclusion, SMBJ5337C/TR13 is an ideal device for ESD protection.
