Product details
Overview
1N4752PE3/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 feedback loops and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4752PE3/TR12 datasheet, 1N4752PE3/TR12 pinout, 1N4752PE3/TR12 application, or 1N4752PE3/TR12 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (45 °C/W junction-to-lead), surge current rating (1000 mA), reverse leakage (<5 µA at 25.1 V), and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 33 V output across 1.0 mA to 135 mA DC regulation current, with a sharp knee at 0.25 mA test current (ZZK = 27 Ω) ensuring low-noise reference behavior. Its DO-41 package provides flexible through-hole mounting and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity without dry pack.
Thermal performance is defined at two conditions: 1.0 W dissipation at lead temperature <105 °C (3/8″ from body) or ambient <45 °C on FR4 board with 4 mm² copper pads; forward voltage is ≤1.2 V at 200 mA, confirming robust conduction capability during transient forward events.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 33 V ±5% at 7.5 mA - sets precise regulation point for feedback networks |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105 °C - defines maximum continuous thermal load in lead-mounted designs |
| Dynamic Impedance | 45 Ω at IZT = 7.5 mA - determines output voltage stability under load variation |
| Reverse Leakage | <5 µA at VR = 25.1 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby regulation |
| Surge Current | 1000 mA (½-sine, 1/120 s) - supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure |
| Thermal Resistance | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead - enables accurate thermal design with standard lead length |
| Operating Temp | –65 °C to +150 °C - suitable for industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
Pinout & Package
DO-41 (DO-204AL) plastic axial-lead package with cathode indicated by color band; leads are tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plated, solderable per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference | Connected to lower-potential node; reverse-biased operation requires cathode at higher potential |
| Cathode | Zener regulation terminal / voltage reference output | Banded end; supplies regulated 33 V when reverse-biased above breakdown threshold |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

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 plating only; same VZ, IZT, ZZT, and package | Not compliant with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU; requires lead exemption documentation | Select when legacy Sn/Pb assembly is mandated and environmental compliance is not required |
| MMSZ4708T1G | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 33 V ±5%; 500 mW rating; ZZT = 50 Ω at 5 mA | Lower power rating limits use to sub-500 mW regulation; smaller footprint but higher thermal resistance | Select for space-constrained PCBs where 1 W dissipation is not needed and reflow compatibility is prioritized |
Compared with 1N4752A and MMSZ4708T1G, the 1N4752PE3/TR12 uniquely combines full 1 W DO-41 power handling, RoHS compliance, and JEDEC-standardized lead form factor-making it optimal for through-hole industrial power supplies requiring long-term component continuity and regulatory alignment.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4752PE3/TR12?
The 1N4752PE3/TR12 has a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix in the base part number. This tolerance is measured at 7.5 mA test current and 25 °C lead temperature, and applies across the full operating temperature range of –65 °C to +150 °C per Microsemi's published specifications.
Does the 1N4752PE3/TR12 require dry packing before PCB assembly?
No, the 1N4752PE3/TR12 does not require dry packing because it is classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B. Its plastic DO-41 package is void-free epoxy meeting UL94V-0, eliminating floor-life limitations and enabling immediate use after opening sealed tape-and-reel packaging.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4752PE3/TR12?
The 1N4752PE3/TR12 is rated for a maximum non-repetitive reverse surge current of 1000 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating supports transient overvoltage clamping in industrial power rails without parametric shift or catastrophic failure.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4752PE3/TR12 compare between lead and ambient mounting?
The 1N4752PE3/TR12 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W at 3/8″ (10 mm) lead length, while junction-to-ambient resistance is 105 °C/W on FR4 board with specified copper pad geometry. This 2.3× difference confirms that lead-mounted heat sinking significantly improves power handling versus board-conducted cooling alone.
Is the 1N4752PE3/TR12 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the 1N4752PE3/TR12 features RoHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plating and is qualified for solder reflow at 260 °C for 10 seconds maximum, fully supporting lead-free assembly. Its plastic package remains stable under these conditions, and no pre-baking is required due to its Level 1 moisture classification.
