Product details
Overview
1N4749CP/TR8 from Microsemi is a 24 V, 1 W silicon Zener diode in DO-41 plastic package with ±5% voltage tolerance, 25 Ω dynamic impedance at 10.5 mA test current, and 250 μA maximum reverse leakage at 18.2 V, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4749CP/TR8 datasheet, 1N4749CP/TR8 pinout, 1N4749CP/TR8 application, or 1N4749CP/TR8 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (45 °C/W junction-to-lead), surge current rating (190 mA), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly.
Technical Context
This discrete Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable output voltage across varying load and line conditions. It delivers regulated 24 V with 10.5 mA nominal test current and exhibits low dynamic impedance (25 Ω) for tight regulation under dynamic load transients.
Designed for axial-lead mounting on FR4 PCBs, it features 45 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance at 10 mm lead length and 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient when mounted with specified copper pads-enabling reliable 1 W dissipation up to 105 °C lead temperature or 45 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 24 V ±5% at 10.5 mA - ensures stable reference in feedback networks requiring tight DC accuracy |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105 °C - supports continuous operation in compact power supplies without forced cooling |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 25 Ω at IZT = 10.5 mA - minimizes output voltage variation during load current changes |
| Reverse Leakage Current | 250 μA max at VR = 18.2 V - guarantees low quiescent loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Surge Current (ISM) | 190 mA (½-sine, 1/120 s) - withstands transient overvoltage events in unprotected input stages |
| Thermal Resistance | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead - enables direct thermal path to PCB copper for improved reliability |
| 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 colored band; leads are tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plated per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference ground | Connected to circuit ground or lower-potential node; reverse-biased operation requires cathode at higher potential |
| Cathode | Zener regulation terminal / voltage reference output | Banded end; connected to regulated rail or error amplifier input; defines 24 V reference point relative to anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Use Value: Stable 24 V Zener voltage and –65 °C to +150 °C operating range ensure deterministic reset behavior across environmental extremes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4749A | No "P" suffix → glass-body DO-35 package; higher thermal resistance (60 °C/W vs. 45 °C/W) | Less suitable for high-power-density layouts; requires larger copper area for same thermal performance | Select 1N4749CP/TR8 for plastic DO-41, RoHS compliance, and superior thermal management in space-constrained designs |
| MMSZ4702T1G | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 24 V ±5%, 500 mW rating; 30 Ω ZZT at 5 mA | Lower power handling and different thermal profile; not drop-in for through-hole boards | Choose MMSZ4702T1G only when board real estate is limited and 500 mW suffices; verify layout compatibility |
Compared with 1N4749A and MMSZ4702T1G, the 1N4749CP/TR8 offers optimal balance of 1 W power capability, DO-41 mechanical robustness, 45 °C/W thermal resistance, and tape-and-reel readiness-making it preferred for industrial power supplies requiring long-term reliability and automated assembly.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4749CP/TR8?
The 1N4749CP/TR8 has a nominal Zener voltage of 24 V with ±5% tolerance, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its JEDEC designation. This tolerance is verified at 10.5 mA test current and 25 °C lead temperature, ensuring predictable regulation in feedback and reference circuits where moderate accuracy suffices.
Does the 1N4749CP/TR8 require dry packing before use?
No, the 1N4749CP/TR8 is moisture sensitivity level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it does not require dry packing or floor-life controls. Its void-free thermosetting epoxy body and Level 1 classification allow immediate use after opening the TR8 tape-and-reel packaging without baking.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4749CP/TR8?
The 1N4749CP/TR8 has a maximum surge current (ISM) rating of 190 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating enables reliable clamping of short-duration transients in 24 V power rails without permanent degradation.
Is the 1N4749CP/TR8 RoHS compliant?
Yes, the "e3" in the full manufacturer part number confirms RoHS compliance. The 1N4749CP/TR8 uses annealed matte-tin plating on leads and UL94V-0 rated epoxy encapsulation, meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements without exemptions.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4749CP/TR8 compare to glass-body variants?
The 1N4749CP/TR8 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W at 10 mm lead length-significantly lower than the 60 °C/W typical of glass-body 1N4749A (DO-35). This 25% improvement allows higher sustained power dissipation in compact layouts with minimal copper area.
