Product details
Overview
1N4739E3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W, 9.1 V ±5% axial-lead silicon Zener diode in DO-41 (DO-204AL) plastic package, designed for precision voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops, overvoltage protection circuits, and reference voltage generation across industrial and embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4739E3/TR13 datasheet, 1N4739E3/TR13 pinout, 1N4739E3/TR13 application, or 1N4739E3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 9.1 V nominal Zener voltage at 28 mA test current, 5.0 Ω dynamic impedance, 7 μA reverse leakage at 7.2 V, 500 mA maximum Zener current at 50°C, and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating with tape-and-reel packaging (TR13).
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse-biased breakdown mode to maintain stable output voltage under varying load and line conditions. Its 9.1 V Zener voltage is specified at 28 mA (IZT), with a sharp knee characterized by ZZK = 100 Ω at IZK = 7 mA, ensuring reliable regulation onset.
Thermal performance is defined by 45 °C/W junction-to-lead resistance at 10 mm lead length and 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 with 4 mm² copper pads. It supports continuous operation from –65 °C to +150 °C and withstands 260 °C soldering for 10 s.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4739A | No "e3" RoHS suffix; Sn/Pb termination; same electrical specs and DO-41 package | Not suitable for lead-free manufacturing; requires exemption or alternative process validation | Select only if legacy Pb-based assembly is mandated and RoHS compliance is waived |
| MMBZ5239BS-7-F | SOT-23 surface-mount package; 9.1 V ±5%; 225 mW power rating; 10 Ω ZZT | Limited to low-power signal-level clamping; insufficient for >200 mA regulation loads | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where 1W dissipation is not required |
Compared with 1N4739A and MMBZ5239BS-7-F, the 1N4739E3/TR13 uniquely combines full 1W power handling, RoHS compliance, tape-and-reel automation support, and JEDEC-standard DO-41 mechanical compatibility-making it optimal for high-reliability industrial power supplies requiring long-term component continuity.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4739E3/TR13?
The 1N4739E3/TR13 has a nominal Zener voltage of 9.1 V with a ±5% tolerance, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its base part number. This means the actual measured VZ falls between 8.645 V and 9.555 V at 28 mA test current and 25°C lead temperature. The tolerance is guaranteed per JEDEC specification and applies to all units in the production lot.
Does the 1N4739E3/TR13 support automated assembly?
Yes, the 1N4739E3/TR13 is supplied in EIA-296 standard tape-and-reel packaging (denoted by "TR13"), enabling compatibility with pick-and-place equipment for axial-lead insertion. Its RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating ensures reliable solder wetting during reflow or wave soldering without requiring special flux or preheat profiles.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for the 1N4739E3/TR13?
The 1N4739E3/TR13 is rated for 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation at 25°C ambient or at lead temperature (TL) < 105°C with 10 mm lead length from the body. Derating is required above 25°C ambient per Figure 1 in the datasheet, reaching zero power at 150°C ambient due to its 105°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on FR4.
How does the 1N4739E3/TR13 perform under surge conditions?
The 1N4739E3/TR13 supports a maximum non-repetitive reverse surge current (ISM) of 500 mA, measured using a ½ sine-wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25°C. This capability allows it to absorb transient overvoltage events in protection circuits without degradation, provided average power remains within 1.0 W limits and thermal design accommodates pulse energy.
Is the 1N4739E3/TR13 suitable for use as a voltage reference in precision analog circuits?
Yes, the 1N4739E3/TR13 delivers stable 9.1 V regulation with 5.0 Ω dynamic impedance at 28 mA and 100 Ω knee impedance at 7 mA, supporting precision applications such as op-amp biasing and ADC references. Its temperature coefficient near zero mV/°C at 9.1 V and low 7 μA leakage at 7.2 V further enhance accuracy in analog signal chains.
