Product details
Overview
1N4750CP/TR8 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W, 27 V ±5% plastic-encapsulated Zener diode in DO-41 package, rated for 9.5 mA test current, 35 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 5 μA reverse leakage at 20.6 V, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4750CP/TR8 datasheet, 1N4750CP/TR8 pinout, 1N4750CP/TR8 application, or 1N4750CP/TR8 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (45 °C/W junction-to-lead), surge current rating (750 mA), operating temperature range (–65 °C to +150 °C), and RoHS-compliant "e3" plating with tape-and-reel packaging.
Technical Context
This Zener operates in reverse breakdown mode with sharp knee characteristics verified per MicroNote 202, using 10% AC superimposition on DC test current to measure dynamic impedance. Its 27 V nominal regulation is stable across –65 °C to +150 °C with a positive temperature coefficient above 5.6 V.
The DO-41 plastic package delivers lower thermal resistance than glass-body variants (G suffix), enabling higher power handling at lead temperature <105 °C. It meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity with no dry pack required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 27 V ±5% at 9.5 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback references |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105 °C - sets maximum steady-state thermal load on lead |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 35 Ω at 9.5 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 5 μA max at 20.6 V - ensures low quiescent current in standby regulation |
| Surge Current (ISM) | 750 mA peak (½-sine, 1/120 s) - supports transient overvoltage clamping |
| Thermal Resistance | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead (3/8″ lead length) - enables thermal design with minimal heatsinking |
| Operating Temperature | –65 °C to +150 °C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature environments |
Pinout & Package
DO-41 (DO-204AL) axial-leaded plastic package with cathode indicated by band; polarity critical for Zener operation (banded end positive during 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 | Banded end; connected to regulated voltage rail - must be held positive relative to anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC-registered 5% tolerance | Ensures consistent voltage setpoint across production lots without binning |
| Plastic encapsulation (P suffix) | Reduces thermal resistance vs. glass-body equivalents, improving power reliability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4750A | No "P" (plastic) or "TR8" suffix; bulk packaging, glass body option possible | Lacks tape-and-reel and guaranteed plastic construction; higher thermal resistance | Select when manual assembly or legacy glass-body compatibility required |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4750CP/TR8?
The 1N4750CP/TR8 has a nominal Zener voltage of 27 V with a ±5% tolerance, as indicated by the "A" suffix in the part number per JEDEC registration. This tolerance is measured at 9.5 mA test current and 25 °C lead temperature, ensuring predictable regulation across production units without binning.
Does the 1N4750CP/TR8 require dry-pack moisture protection before PCB assembly?
No, the 1N4750CP/TR8 is moisture classified as Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it may be stored and assembled without dry-pack desiccant or baking. Its void-free thermosetting epoxy body inherently resists moisture absorption, simplifying manufacturing logistics.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4750CP/TR8?
The 1N4750CP/TR8 is rated for a peak reverse surge current (ISM) of 750 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating supports transient clamping in power supply input stages and protection circuits subject to short-duration overvoltage events.
How does the "P" and "TR8" suffix affect the 1N4750CP/TR8 packaging?
The "P" suffix confirms plastic (DO-41) encapsulation - offering lower thermal resistance than glass-body variants - while "TR8" specifies EIA-296-compliant tape-and-reel packaging with 8 mm carrier tape width, enabling direct use in automated pick-and-place equipment despite its axial-leaded form.
Is the 1N4750CP/TR8 RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N4750CP/TR8 is RoHS compliant, as confirmed by the "e3" suffix in its full designation (1N4750CP/TR8-e3 per Microsemi documentation), indicating annealed matte-tin plating that meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements without compromising solderability or reliability.
