Product details
Overview
1N4749P/TR8 from Microsemi is a 24 V, ±5% tolerance, 1 W silicon Zener diode in DO-41 plastic package, rated for 10.5 mA test current (IZT), 25 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 5 μA reverse leakage at 18.2 V (VR). It provides stable voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits across -65°C to +150°C.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4749P/TR8 datasheet, 1N4749P/TR8 pinout, 1N4749P/TR8 application, or 1N4749P/TR8 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (45°C/W junction-to-lead), surge current rating (190 mA), RoHS-compliant "e3" plating option, and tape-and-reel packaging (TR8 suffix).
Technical Context
This axial-leaded Zener operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 24 V reference across a wide current range (0.25 mA to 190 mA), with sharp knee characteristics verified by dual-point impedance testing per MicroNote 202. Its 45°C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance enables reliable 1 W dissipation at TL ≤ 105°C with 3/8" lead length.
The device features moisture sensitivity Level 1 per J-STD-020B (no dry pack required), nonsensitive ESD behavior per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020, and UL94V-0 epoxy encapsulation. Cathode polarity is marked by a band; operation requires cathode-positive bias relative to anode.

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 TR8 tape-and-reel; bulk or ammo-pack only; identical electrical specs and DO-41 package | Lacks automated placement support; suitable for manual or low-volume prototyping | Select 1N4749A when reel packaging is unnecessary and cost minimization is prioritized |
| BZX85C24 | Same 24 V/1 W rating but TO-204AA (DO-41 equivalent) package; ±5% tolerance; 25 Ω ZZT; 5 μA IR | Manufactured by NXP; identical thermal and electrical performance; RoHS-compliant by default | Choose BZX85C24 for second-source assurance where Microsemi supply continuity is constrained |
Compared with 1N4749P/TR8, the 1N4749A offers identical regulation performance without tape-and-reel convenience, while BZX85C24 provides a functionally equivalent, widely stocked alternative with identical Zener voltage, power, and impedance-but sourced from a different manufacturer and qualified to distinct quality standards.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4749P/TR8?
The 1N4749P/TR8 has a nominal Zener voltage of 24 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its JEDEC designation. This tolerance is guaranteed at 10.5 mA test current and 25°C lead temperature. The 1N4749P/TR8 maintains this specification across its full operating temperature range of -65°C to +150°C, supported by its low temperature coefficient and stable breakdown characteristics.
Does the 1N4749P/TR8 support automated assembly?
Yes, the 1N4749P/TR8 is supplied in EIA-296–compliant tape-and-reel format (denoted by the "TR8" suffix), enabling direct use in high-speed axial-leaded component placement machines. Its DO-41 package dimensions and lead spacing comply with industry-standard feeders, and the RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating ensures reliable solderability at 260°C for 10 seconds per JEDEC J-STD-020.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4749P/TR8?
The 1N4749P/TR8 is rated for a maximum non-repetitive surge current (ISM) of 190 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25°C ambient. This rating allows the 1N4749P/TR8 to safely clamp transient overvoltages in power rails and signal lines without permanent parameter shift or catastrophic failure.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4749P/TR8 compare to glass-body Zeners?
The 1N4749P/TR8 features a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45°C/W-significantly lower than glass-body equivalents (e.g., 1N4749G) due to its plastic P-suffix construction. This improved thermal performance allows the 1N4749P/TR8 to sustain full 1 W dissipation at higher ambient temperatures or with shorter lead lengths, enhancing reliability in compact or thermally constrained designs.
Is the 1N4749P/TR8 suitable for military-grade applications?
Yes-the base 1N4749P/TR8 can be ordered with military screening prefixes (e.g., MX for JANTX, MV for JANTXV) per MIL-PRF-19500, enabling use in defense and aerospace systems. These versions undergo extended environmental testing, lot traceability, and enhanced quality assurance. The 1N4749P/TR8 itself meets Level 1 moisture sensitivity and ESD immunity per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020, forming the foundation for qualified variants.
