Product details
Overview
1N4752CP/TR12 from Microsemi is a 33 V, 1 W axial-lead Zener diode in DO-41 plastic package with ±5% voltage tolerance, 7.5 mA test current, and 45 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4752CP/TR12 datasheet, 1N4752CP/TR12 pinout, 1N4752CP/TR12 application, or 1N4752CP/TR12 equivalent, key selection factors include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (45 °C/W junction-to-lead), surge current rating (1000 mA), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750.
Technical Context
This discrete Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 33 V regulation across 1–100 mA operating current range, with temperature coefficient near +15 mV/°C (per Figure 3). Its DO-41 package provides flexible through-hole mounting and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity without dry pack.
It delivers 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation at lead temperature <105 °C (3/8″ from body) or ambient <45 °C on FR4 board, with forward voltage ≤1.2 V at 200 mA and reverse leakage ≤5 μA at 25.1 V test voltage.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 33 V ±5% at 7.5 mA - defines regulated output level for reference and clamp circuits |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105 °C - sets maximum continuous thermal load on lead-mounted layout |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 45 Ω at IZT = 7.5 mA - determines regulation stiffness under varying load current |
| Max Reverse Leakage (IR) | 5 μA at VR = 25.1 V - ensures low standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Surge Current (ISM) | 1000 mA (½-sine, 1/120 s) - supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure |
| Thermal Resistance | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead - enables thermal design using lead length as heatsink path |
| Operating Temperature | −65 °C to +150 °C - suitable for industrial and automotive under-hood environments |

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 "P" suffix → glass-body DO-35 package; higher thermal resistance (105 °C/W junction-to-ambient) | Less suitable for high-power-density layouts; requires larger copper area for same power dissipation | Select 1N4752CP/TR12 when DO-41 mechanical robustness and lower thermal resistance are required |
| BZX55C33 | 33 V, ±5%, 500 mW rating; DO-35 package; higher ZZT (~100 Ω) and lower IZM (190 mA) | Not rated for 1 A surge; limited to lower-power reference use where thermal margin is less critical | Choose BZX55C33 only for space-constrained designs accepting reduced surge capability and regulation stiffness |
Compared with 1N4752A and BZX55C33, the 1N4752CP/TR12 offers superior thermal performance (45 °C/W), higher surge rating (1000 mA), and DO-41 mechanical reliability-making it optimal for industrial power supplies requiring long-term stability under thermal cycling.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4752CP/TR12?
The 1N4752CP/TR12 has a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its JEDEC designation. This tolerance applies at 7.5 mA test current and 25 °C lead temperature. The "P" suffix confirms plastic DO-41 packaging, and "TR12" denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard. The 1N4752CP/TR12 maintains this specification across its full operating temperature range of −65 °C to +150 °C.
Does the 1N4752CP/TR12 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No, the 1N4752CP/TR12 is moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions without dry pack or baking. Its void-free thermosetting epoxy body and matte-tin plating ensure robust solderability at 260 °C for 10 seconds. This eliminates moisture-related popcorning risk during reflow, simplifying manufacturing for the 1N4752CP/TR12 in high-volume production.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4752CP/TR12?
The 1N4752CP/TR12 is rated for a maximum surge current (ISM) of 1000 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating enables reliable transient suppression in DC power rails. The 1N4752CP/TR12 achieves this while maintaining Zener voltage stability and no parametric shift, making it suitable for overvoltage protection in industrial motor drives and telecom power systems.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4752CP/TR12 compare to glass-body Zeners?
The 1N4752CP/TR12 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W at 3/8″ (10 mm) lead length, significantly lower than the 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient rating typical of glass-body DO-35 variants like the 1N4752A. This allows the 1N4752CP/TR12 to dissipate 1.0 W more efficiently in lead-mounted configurations. Engineers designing compact power supplies benefit directly from this improved thermal path in the 1N4752CP/TR12.
Is the 1N4752CP/TR12 RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N4752CP/TR12 is RoHS compliant, as confirmed by the "e3" designation in Microsemi's official documentation and its matte-tin terminal plating qualified per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. The "e3" suffix indicates lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction. This compliance applies to both the 1N4752CP/TR12 device itself and its tape-and-reel packaging materials, supporting environmental requirements for global electronics manufacturing.
