Product details
Overview
1N4748E3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W axial-lead silicon Zener diode with a nominal Zener voltage of 22 V ±5%, 11.5 mA test current (IZT), 23 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and maximum reverse current of 5 μA at 16.7 V. It regulates voltage in power supply reference, overvoltage protection, and voltage-clamping circuits across industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4748E3/TR13 datasheet, 1N4748E3/TR13 pinout, 1N4748E3/TR13 application, or 1N4748E3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (45 °C/W junction-to-lead), surge current rating (750 mA), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and DO-41 package compatibility with standard axial-lead PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This Zener operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable output voltage under varying load and line conditions. Its 22 V regulation point is specified at 11.5 mA IZT with 23 Ω dynamic impedance, ensuring low voltage deviation across operating current range (0.25–750 mA).
Designed for through-hole mounting on FR4 boards, it exhibits 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance with defined copper pad layout (4 mm², 1 mm trace width), and supports soldering at 260 °C for 10 s. Polarity is marked by cathode band; regulation requires cathode-positive bias.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (Vz) | 22 V ±5% at 11.5 mA - defines precise regulation threshold for reference and clamp circuits |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at 25 °C lead temperature - sets maximum continuous DC power handling before derating |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 23 Ω at IZT - determines output voltage stability under small-signal AC ripple superimposed on DC current |
| Max Reverse Current (IR) | 5 μA at 16.7 V - ensures minimal leakage below regulation knee, critical for low-power standby modes |
| Surge Current (ISM) | 750 mA (½-sine, 1/120 s) - enables transient overvoltage suppression without device failure |
| Thermal Resistance | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead (3/8″ lead length) - informs heatsinking requirements for sustained operation |
| Operating Temperature | −65 °C to +150 °C - supports deployment in automotive engine compartments and industrial control enclosures |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4748A | No "e3" RoHS suffix; Sn/Pb termination; same electrical specs and DO-41 package | Not suitable for lead-free assembly processes requiring RoHS compliance | Select 1N4748A only for legacy Sn/Pb reflow or non-RoHS environments |
| MMSZ4702T1G | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 22 V ±5%; 500 mW rating; higher ZZT (50 Ω) | Limited to lower-power applications; incompatible with through-hole layouts | Choose MMSZ4702T1G for space-constrained PCBs where 1 W dissipation is not required |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4748E3/TR13?
The 1N4748E3/TR13 has a nominal Zener voltage of 22 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its base part number (1N4748A). This tolerance is measured at 11.5 mA test current and 25 °C lead temperature, and applies across the full operating temperature range of −65 °C to +150 °C.
Does the 1N4748E3/TR13 support lead-free assembly?
Yes, the 1N4748E3/TR13 supports lead-free assembly. The "e3" suffix confirms RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating per J-STD-609A Class 3, and the device is qualified for soldering at 260 °C for 10 seconds-meeting IPC-J-STD-020D reflow profile requirements for Pb-free processes.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4748E3/TR13?
The 1N4748E3/TR13 has a maximum surge current (ISM) rating of 750 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating enables reliable transient suppression in 24 V industrial bus protection without permanent parameter shift or catastrophic failure.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4748E3/TR13 affect PCB layout?
The 1N4748E3/TR13 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W at 3/8″ (10 mm) lead length, meaning PCB layout must ensure adequate copper area (minimum 4 mm² pads) and trace width (1 mm) to achieve the rated 1.0 W dissipation at 25 °C ambient. Without proper copper, power derating is required per Figure 1 in the datasheet.
Is the 1N4748E3/TR13 compatible with tape-and-reel automated assembly?
Yes, the "TR13" suffix in 1N4748E3/TR13 explicitly denotes EIA-296-compliant tape-and-reel packaging on a 13-inch reel. This configuration supports high-speed pick-and-place machines and ensures consistent orientation (cathode band facing up) for automated through-hole insertion or selective soldering processes.
