Product details
Overview
1N4754PE3/TR8 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W, 39 V ±5% plastic-encapsulated Zener diode in DO-41 package, rated for 6.5 mA test current, 23 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 1000 mA maximum regulator current at TL = 50°C. It delivers stable voltage regulation in power supply reference, overvoltage protection, and biasing circuits across industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4754PE3/TR8 datasheet, 1N4754PE3/TR8 pinout, 1N4754PE3/TR8 application, or 1N4754PE3/TR8 equivalent, key selection factors include its 39 V nominal Zener voltage, DO-41 axial-leaded package with cathode band marking, 45 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance, RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and EIA-296 tape-and-reel packaging (TR8 suffix).
Technical Context
This Zener operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 39 V reference across a wide current range (5–1000 mA), with sharp knee characteristics verified by dual-point Zener impedance measurement per MicroNote 202. Its 23 Ω dynamic impedance at 6.5 mA ensures low AC ripple sensitivity in regulation loops.
The device uses void-free UL94V-0 thermosetting epoxy encapsulation, exhibits <1 μA reverse leakage at 29.7 V, and maintains regulation from –65°C to +150°C. Its 1.2 V forward voltage at 200 mA supports bidirectional testing and polarity verification during board-level validation.
Key Specifications

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; same electrical specs and DO-41 package | Not compliant with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU; requires exemption documentation for new designs | Select 1N4754A only for legacy repair or non-RoHS programs where Sn/Pb solder is used |
| MMSZ4702T1G | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 39 V ±5%; 500 mW rating; 30 Ω ZZT at 5 mA | Lower power and thermal mass; unsuitable for >500 mW continuous dissipation or high-surge scenarios | Choose MMSZ4702T1G for space-constrained PCBs where 1W dissipation is not required |
Compared with 1N4754A and MMSZ4702T1G, the 1N4754PE3/TR8 uniquely combines 1W power rating, DO-41 axial-leaded mechanical robustness, RoHS compliance, and EIA-296 tape-and-reel automation support-making it optimal for industrial power supplies requiring long-term component availability and thermal reliability.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4754PE3/TR8?
The 1N4754PE3/TR8 has a nominal Zener voltage of 39 V with a ±5% tolerance, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its JEDEC designation. This means the actual measured VZ falls between 37.05 V and 40.95 V when tested at 6.5 mA and 25°C lead temperature. The tolerance is guaranteed per JEDEC registration and applies across the full operating temperature range.
Does the 1N4754PE3/TR8 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No, the 1N4754PE3/TR8 does not require dry packing. It is classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it has unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH and may be assembled directly from reel without baking. This eliminates moisture-related popcorning risk during standard IR or convection reflow profiles.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4754PE3/TR8?
The 1N4754PE3/TR8 has a maximum surge current (ISM) rating of 1000 mA, measured using a ½ sine-wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25°C ambient. This rating applies to short-duration transients such as ESD or inductive kickback, and must be derated for repeated surges or elevated ambient temperatures per the power derating curve in the Microsemi datasheet.
Can the 1N4754PE3/TR8 be used in surface-mount designs?
No, the 1N4754PE3/TR8 is an axial-leaded DO-41 device and is not suitable for surface-mount assembly. For SMT equivalents, consider the SMAJ4754A or MLL4754A-both share identical electrical specifications but use DO-214AC and SOD-123 packages respectively. The TR8 tape-and-reel format supports automated through-hole insertion, not pick-and-place.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4754PE3/TR8 affect PCB layout?
The 1N4754PE3/TR8 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W when measured at 3/8″ (10 mm) lead length from the body. To achieve rated 1W dissipation, PCB traces connected to each lead must provide adequate copper area (≥4 mm² pads) and thermal relief control; mounting on FR4 with 1 oz Cu yields 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient, requiring derating above 45°C ambient per Figure 1.
