Product details
Overview
1N4754PE3/TR12 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W, 39 V ±5% axial-lead Zener diode in DO-41 plastic package, rated for -65°C to +150°C operation, with 6.5 mA test current, 60 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 0.25 A maximum regulator current at TA = 50°C. It provides stable voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4754PE3/TR12 datasheet, 1N4754PE3/TR12 pinout, 1N4754PE3/TR12 application, or 1N4754PE3/TR12 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (105°C/W on FR4), surge current rating (1000 mA), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and tape-and-reel packaging (TR12).
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 39 V reference across a wide current range (6.5 mA to 250 mA), with low dynamic impedance ensuring minimal voltage variation under load transients. Its DO-41 plastic encapsulation delivers lower thermal resistance than glass-body variants and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity without dry pack.
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient above ~5 V, with typical TC of +3.5 mV/°C at 39 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in precision references. It is nonsensitive to ESD per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 and supports soldering at 260°C for 10 s.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 39 V ±5% at IZT = 6.5 mA - defines nominal regulation point with tight production control |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105°C (3/8″ lead length) - sets maximum continuous DC power under defined thermal conditions |
| Dynamic Impedance | 60 Ω at IZT = 6.5 mA - determines AC voltage variation under small-signal ripple or noise |
| Max Regulator Current | 250 mA at TA = 50°C - limits usable current range before thermal runaway or derating |
| Reverse Leakage | 5 μA max at VR = 29.7 V - ensures low standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Surge Current | 1000 mA (½-sine, 1/120 s) - supports transient overvoltage clamping without failure |
| Thermal Resistance | 105°C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 (1 oz Cu, 4 mm² pad) - governs board-level thermal design margin |
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 | Non-banded lead | Connected to circuit ground or lower potential node during Zener operation |
| Cathode | Banded lead | Connected to regulated voltage node; must be held positive relative to anode for breakdown conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| RoHS-compliant "e3" suffix | Matte-tin terminal plating meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU, eliminating lead while maintaining solderability |
| Tape-and-reel packaging (TR12) | EIA-296 standard carrier tape with 12 mm reel width, enabling automated SMT placement compatibility |
| Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 | No dry pack required per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B - simplifies handling and eliminates bake-out prior to assembly |
| Low thermal resistance (plastic P-suffix) | 45°C/W junction-to-lead vs. higher RθJA of glass-body variants - improves power handling in leaded layouts |
| Nonsensitive to ESD | Qualified per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - reduces risk of field failure in unshielded environments |
Applications

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stable 39 V reference in linear regulator feedback networks or analog sensor excitation circuits. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage reference element providing precise DC bias point independent of input ripple.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4754A | No "e3" RoHS suffix; Sn/Pb plating; TR12 not standard - requires dry pack per MSL Level 1 if legacy Pb-free process used | Same electrical specs but non-RoHS; unsuitable for EU/China RoHS-compliant production | Select only for legacy repair or non-regulated markets where Pb exemption applies |
| MMSZ5254ET1G | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 39 V ±5%; 500 mW rating; 22 Ω ZZT; 200 mA IZM | Lower power and smaller footprint; insufficient for 1 W continuous dissipation; better for space-constrained PCBs | Choose when board area is critical and average power <0.5 W; verify thermal pad layout for 22 Ω ZZT stability |
Compared with 1N4754A and MMSZ5254ET1G, the 1N4754PE3/TR12 uniquely combines full 1 W dissipation capability, RoHS compliance, tape-and-reel automation support, and proven axial-lead reliability in industrial power rails - making it optimal for high-volume, thermally demanding, and compliance-sensitive designs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N4754PE3/TR12?
The 1N4754PE3/TR12 has a nominal Zener voltage of 39 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as confirmed by the "A" suffix in its JEDEC designation and verified in Microsemi's official datasheet Rev C. This tolerance applies at 6.5 mA test current and 25°C lead temperature. The "e3" suffix indicates RoHS compliance but does not affect voltage specification.
Does 1N4754PE3/TR12 require dry packing before PCB assembly?
No, the 1N4754PE3/TR12 is classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it may be stored and assembled without dry pack or baking. This is explicitly stated in the Microsemi datasheet and results from its void-free epoxy encapsulation and hermetic lead seal.
What is the maximum continuous current for 1N4754PE3/TR12 at 70°C ambient?
At 70°C ambient temperature on an FR4 board (1 oz Cu, 4 mm² pad), the 1N4754PE3/TR12 must be derated from its 1.0 W rating. Using the 105°C/W thermal resistance and 150°C max junction temperature, the allowable power drops to ~0.76 W, supporting ~195 mA continuous current - well below its 250 mA IZM rating at 50°C.
Can 1N4754PE3/TR12 replace 1N4754A in existing designs?
Yes, the 1N4754PE3/TR12 is a direct functional and mechanical replacement for 1N4754A, with identical electrical specs, DO-41 package dimensions, and polarity marking. The "e3" suffix adds RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating and TR12 tape-and-reel packaging - no PCB or schematic changes are needed unless legacy Sn/Pb soldering is used.
What is the surge current rating of 1N4754PE3/TR12 and how is it tested?
The 1N4754PE3/TR12 has a maximum surge current (ISM) of 1000 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25°C ambient, superimposed on the 6.5 mA Zener test current. This rating is validated per Microsemi's test methodology described in Note 3 of the datasheet and supports IEC 61000-4-5 transient suppression.
