Product details
Overview
1N4739CE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 9.1 V, ±2% tolerance, 1 W axial-lead Zener diode in DO-41 package, rated for 28 mA test current, 5 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 7 µA reverse leakage at 7.2 V, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4739CE3/TR13 datasheet, 1N4739CE3/TR13 pinout, 1N4739CE3/TR13 application, or 1N4739CE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±2%), thermal resistance (45 °C/W junction-to-lead), surge current rating (500 mA), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable output voltage across varying load and line conditions. Its 9.1 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at 28 mA test current with ±2% tolerance (C suffix), and exhibits low dynamic impedance (5 Ω) ensuring minimal voltage deviation under dynamic current changes.
Designed for operation from –65 °C to +150 °C, it delivers 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation at lead temperature <105 °C (3/8″ from body) or ambient <45 °C on FR4 board, with thermal resistance of 45 °C/W junction-to-lead and 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient under defined PCB layout conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 9.1 V ±2% at 28 mA - ensures tight regulation for reference-sensitive analog circuits |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105 °C - supports continuous operation in compact power supplies |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 5 Ω at IZT = 28 mA - minimizes output voltage variation during load transients |
| Reverse Leakage Current | 7 µA max at VR = 7.2 V - maintains low quiescent power in standby modes |
| Surge Current (ISM) | 500 mA (½-sine, 1/120 s) - withstands brief overvoltage events without degradation |
| Thermal Resistance | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead - enables reliable heat transfer through axial leads |
| Operating Temperature | –65 °C to +150 °C - suitable for industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
Pinout & Package
DO-41 (DO-204AL) plastic axial-leaded package with cathode indicated by color band; terminals are non-polarized for mounting but operated with banded end positive for Zener regulation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference | Connected to circuit ground or lower potential node during regulation |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / voltage reference output | Banded end; connected to regulated rail; must be held positive relative to anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating | Meets MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 solderability; eliminates lead-based assembly constraints |
| Moisture sensitivity Level 1 | No dry pack required per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B - simplifies handling and storage |
| ESD robustness | Nonsensitive per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - reduces risk of field failure in handling |
| Tape-and-reel packaging | EIA-296 compliant (TR13 suffix) - enables automated SMT-compatible placement despite axial form |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4739A | Same 9.1 V, but ±5% tolerance (A suffix) and no RoHS compliance (Sn/Pb plating) | Acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs precision or environmental compliance | Select only if legacy Sn/Pb assembly is mandated and ±5% regulation is sufficient |
| BZX55C9V1 | 9.1 V ±5%, 500 mW power rating, DO-35 package, higher ZZT (10 Ω) | Lower power and less precise; unsuitable for 1 W continuous or tight-tolerance use | Use only in space-constrained, low-power signal-level clamping where 500 mW suffices |
Compared with 1N4739A and BZX55C9V1, the 1N4739CE3/TR13 offers superior precision (±2% vs. ±5%), full RoHS compliance, and 1 W power capability - making it the preferred choice for industrial-grade reference and clamp designs requiring long-term stability and regulatory alignment.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4739CE3/TR13?
The 1N4739CE3/TR13 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±2%, denoted by the "C" suffix in the part number. This means its nominal 9.1 V Zener voltage is guaranteed between 8.92 V and 9.28 V when measured at 28 mA test current and 25 °C lead temperature, supporting precision reference applications where tighter regulation than standard ±5% parts is required.
Does the 1N4739CE3/TR13 meet RoHS requirements?
Yes, the 1N4739CE3/TR13 meets RoHS requirements, confirmed by the "e3" suffix indicating RoHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. It contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE, and is suitable for environmentally regulated industrial and consumer electronics manufacturing.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4739CE3/TR13?
The 1N4739CE3/TR13 has a maximum surge current (ISM) rating of 500 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating allows the device to safely absorb transient overvoltage events in power rails without permanent degradation, making it suitable for clamping in automotive and industrial environments.
How is polarity marked on the 1N4739CE3/TR13?
The 1N4739CE3/TR13 uses a cathode band to indicate polarity: the banded end is the cathode and must be held at a more positive potential than the anode to operate in Zener breakdown mode. This marking follows JEDEC DO-41 standards and is visible on the black epoxy body; incorrect orientation results in forward conduction instead of regulation.
What packaging format does the "TR13" suffix indicate for the 1N4739CE3/TR13?
"TR13" indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, with 13-inch reels containing 5,000 units. This format enables automated pick-and-place assembly despite the axial-leaded DO-41 package, supporting high-volume manufacturing while preserving moisture sensitivity Level 1 handling requirements (no dry pack needed).
