Product details
Overview
1N4752APE3/TR8 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W, 33 V ±5% plastic-encapsulated Zener diode in DO-41 package, rated for 7.5 mA test current, 45 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 1000 mA maximum regulator current at TA = 50°C. It delivers stable voltage regulation in power supply reference, overvoltage protection, and biasing circuits across industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4752APE3/TR8 datasheet, 1N4752APE3/TR8 pinout, 1N4752APE3/TR8 application, or 1N4752APE3/TR8 equivalent, key selection factors include its 33 V nominal Zener voltage, 1.0 W power rating at 25°C with defined derating, DO-41 axial-leaded mechanical form, RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and tape-and-reel packaging (TR8).
Technical Context
This Zener operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 33 V reference across a wide current range (IZK = 0.25 mA to IZM = 1000 mA), with low dynamic impedance (45 Ω) ensuring minimal voltage variation under load transients. Its thermal resistance is 45 °C/W junction-to-lead (3/8" lead length) and 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 board.
The device features moisture sensitivity Level 1 per J-STD-020B (no dry pack required), nonsensitive ESD performance per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020, and UL94V-0 epoxy case. Polarity is marked by cathode band; regulation requires cathode positive relative to anode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 33 V ±5% at IZT = 7.5 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback loops and references |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL ≤ 105°C (3/8" lead) - sets maximum continuous thermal load without derating |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 45 Ω at IZT = 7.5 mA - determines output voltage stability under varying load current |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 1000 mA at TA = 50°C - establishes safe peak current capability before thermal runaway |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 5 μA max at VR = 25.1 V - ensures low standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead - enables accurate thermal design when leads serve as primary heat path |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +150°C - supports deployment in automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-41 (DO-204AL), axial-leaded plastic encapsulated diode with cathode band marking. Body diameter 2.0–2.7 mm, overall length 4.5–5.5 mm, lead diameter 0.4–0.6 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| Cathode | Regulated output node | Marked by band; held at stable 33 V above anode; supplies reference voltage to error amplifiers or sensing circuits |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating | Enables lead-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020, eliminating Pb-based process constraints |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4752A | No "e3" RoHS suffix; Sn/Pb terminations; TR8 tape not standard | Not suitable for lead-free assembly; requires dry pack if stored >12 months | Select only for legacy Pb-based processes where RoHS compliance is waived |
| MMSZ4708T1G | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 33 V ±5%; 500 mW rating; 30 Ω ZZT | Lower power handling; unsuitable for >500 mW continuous dissipation; smaller footprint | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where thermal budget allows reduced power rating |
Compared with 1N4752A and MMSZ4708T1G, the 1N4752APE3/TR8 offers full 1.0 W dissipation in through-hole DO-41 form with guaranteed RoHS compliance and tape-and-reel automation support-making it optimal for industrial power supplies requiring robust, assembly-ready Zener regulation.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4752APE3/TR8?
The 1N4752APE3/TR8 has a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix in the part number per Microsemi's JEDEC-registered specification. This tolerance applies at IZT = 7.5 mA and TL = 25°C. The "e3" suffix confirms RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and "TR8" denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standards. The 1N4752APE3/TR8 maintains this tolerance across its qualified operating temperature range.
Can the 1N4752APE3/TR8 be used in surface-mount designs?
No-the 1N4752APE3/TR8 uses a DO-41 axial-leaded package and is intended for through-hole mounting. For surface-mount equivalents, Microsemi offers the SMAJ4752A and MLL4752A in DO-214AC and SOD-123 packages respectively. The 1N4752APE3/TR8 itself requires hole drilling and wave/soldering processes; attempting SMT placement would compromise mechanical integrity and thermal performance due to its lead geometry and body construction.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for the 1N4752APE3/TR8?
The 1N4752APE3/TR8 is rated for 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation at lead temperature (TL) ≤ 105°C with 3/8" (10 mm) lead length from the body, or at ambient temperature (TA) ≤ 45°C when mounted on FR4 board with specified copper pads. Derating is required above these temperatures per Figure 1 in the datasheet. This 1.0 W rating is a key differentiator from lower-power Zeners like the MMSZ4708T1G (500 mW), making the 1N4752APE3/TR8 suitable for higher-current regulation tasks.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4752APE3/TR8 affect PCB layout?
The 1N4752APE3/TR8 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W, meaning effective heat removal depends critically on lead length and copper connection area. Layout best practice is to use ≥10 mm straight leads and connect both leads to ≥4 mm² copper pours. On FR4 with 1 oz Cu, junction-to-ambient resistance rises to 105 °C/W-so board-level thermal design must account for this. The 1N4752APE3/TR8's DO-41 package relies on leads-not the body-for primary heat conduction, unlike SMD Zeners.
Is the 1N4752APE3/TR8 suitable for automotive under-hood applications?
Yes-the 1N4752APE3/TR8 is qualified for operation from –65°C to +150°C and meets MIL-STD-750 ESD requirements, supporting under-hood deployment. Its UL94V-0 epoxy case resists thermal cycling and fluid exposure, and the 45 °C/W thermal resistance enables reliable operation with proper lead heatsinking. However, system-level validation-including vibration, chemical exposure, and transient immunity-is required per AEC-Q101 guidelines, as the 1N4752APE3/TR8 is not AEC-Q101 certified out-of-box.
