Product details
Overview
1N4735PE3/TR8 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W, 6.2 V ±5% axial-lead Zener diode in DO-41 plastic package, rated for 41 mA test current, 2 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 700 mA maximum regulator current at TA = 50°C. It provides stable voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits across industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4735PE3/TR8 datasheet, 1N4735PE3/TR8 pinout, 1N4735PE3/TR8 application, or 1N4735PE3/TR8 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6.2 V nominal Zener voltage, 1 W power rating at 25°C with 45°C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance, RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and EIA-296 tape-and-reel packaging (TR8).
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 6.2 V reference across a wide operating current range (1–700 mA), with sharp knee characteristics verified by dual-point Zener impedance measurement per MicroNote 202. Its DO-41 plastic encapsulation delivers lower thermal resistance than glass-body variants and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity without dry pack.
The 1N4735PE3/TR8 exhibits a typical temperature coefficient near 0 mV/°C for 6.2 V Zeners (per Figure 3), enabling stable regulation over –65°C to +150°C ambient. It supports 260°C soldering for 10 s and features cathode band polarity marking, UL94V-0 epoxy case, and tin-lead or RoHS-compliant terminal plating per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 6.2 V ±5% at IZT = 41 mA, TL = 25°C - defines precise regulation point for feedback loops |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105°C (3/8″ lead length) - sets maximum continuous DC power under defined thermal mounting |
| Dynamic Impedance | 2 Ω at IZT = 41 mA - ensures low AC output impedance for ripple rejection in reference circuits |
| Max Regulator Current | 700 mA at TA = 50°C - determines peak load capability before thermal derating applies |
| Thermal Resistance | 45°C/W junction-to-lead - enables accurate junction temperature estimation using lead temperature measurement |
| Reverse Leakage | 10 μA max at VR = 3 V - guarantees minimal quiescent current in standby or high-impedance bias networks |
| Forward Voltage | 1.2 V max at IF = 200 mA - defines conduction loss when used in forward-biased clamp or series path |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4735A | No e3 or TR8 suffix - leaded, non-RoHS, bulk packaged | Lacks RoHS compliance and automated placement support | Select only for legacy non-RoHS designs or manual assembly |
| BZX55C6V2 | Same 6.2 V ±5%, but 500 mW rating and DO-35 package | Lower power dissipation limits use to sub-500 mW loads | Choose where space constraints favor smaller DO-35 or power demand is ≤0.5 W |
Compared with 1N4735A and BZX55C6V2, the 1N4735PE3/TR8 offers full 1 W capability in RoHS-compliant tape-and-reel format with superior thermal performance, making it optimal for production-grade industrial power references requiring reliability and automation readiness.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N4735PE3/TR8?
The 1N4735PE3/TR8 has a nominal Zener voltage of 6.2 V with a ±5% tolerance, as confirmed by the "A" suffix in its base part number (1N4735A) per JEDEC registration. This tolerance applies at IZT = 41 mA and TL = 25°C. The "P" denotes plastic construction, "e3" indicates RoHS compliance, and "TR8" specifies EIA-296 tape-and-reel packaging. The 1N4735PE3/TR8 maintains this tolerance across its full operating temperature range.
Does 1N4735PE3/TR8 require dry packing per J-STD-020?
No, the 1N4735PE3/TR8 is moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it does not require dry pack or floor life controls prior to soldering. Its DO-41 plastic encapsulation provides inherent moisture resistance, eliminating bake requirements and simplifying handling for both manual and automated assembly processes involving the 1N4735PE3/TR8.
What is the maximum surge current rating for 1N4735PE3/TR8?
The 1N4735PE3/TR8 has a maximum non-repetitive reverse surge current (ISM) of 700 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25°C ambient. This rating applies under specified thermal conditions and is validated per Note 3 in the Microsemi datasheet. Engineers must verify layout thermal mass and trace width when designing for repeated surge events involving the 1N4735PE3/TR8.
Can 1N4735PE3/TR8 be used in surface-mount designs?
No, the 1N4735PE3/TR8 uses a DO-41 axial-lead package and is not a surface-mount device. For SMT-compatible alternatives, Microsemi offers the SMAJ4735A and MLL4735A families in SMA and SOD-123 packages respectively. These share identical electrical specifications but differ mechanically - the 1N4735PE3/TR8 requires through-hole or axial-leaded PCB footprints and cannot be placed via pick-and-place machines designed for SMT components.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for 1N4735PE3/TR8?
The 1N4735PE3/TR8 has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 105°C/W when mounted on an FR4 PCB with 1 oz copper, 4 mm² copper pads, and 1 mm track width over 25 mm length. This value assumes natural convection cooling and is significantly higher than its 45°C/W junction-to-lead rating - proper heatsinking via lead termination is critical to sustain 1 W operation. Thermal design must reference this 105°C/W value when estimating TJ in system-level analysis of the 1N4735PE3/TR8.
