Product details
Overview
1N4756CE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W, 47 V ±2% tolerance silicon Zener diode in DO-41 plastic package, rated for 5.5 mA test current, 80 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 19 Ω knee impedance at 0.25 mA, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4756CE3/TR13 datasheet, 1N4756CE3/TR13 pinout, 1N4756CE3/TR13 application, or 1N4756CE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection factors include its ±2% voltage tolerance (C suffix), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating (e3 suffix), tape-and-reel packaging (TR13 suffix), and thermal resistance of 45 °C/W junction-to-lead at 10 mm lead length.
Technical Context
This Zener operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 47 V output across a wide current range (0.25 mA to 150 mA), with sharp knee characteristics confirmed by dual-point Zener impedance measurement per MicroNote 202. Its 19 Ω ZZK at IZK = 0.25 mA ensures low-voltage drift near regulation threshold.
Designed for axial-lead mounting on FR4 PCBs, it delivers 1.0 W steady-state dissipation at TL < 105 °C (3/8″ lead length) or TA < 45 °C, with moisture sensitivity level 1 per J-STD-020B and no dry pack required.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 47 V ±2% at 5.5 mA - enables precise reference generation with tight tolerance for feedback loops |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at 25 °C - supports robust regulation in compact linear regulator stages |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 80 Ω at 5.5 mA - limits output voltage variation under load transients |

| Max Reverse Current (IR) | 5 μA at 35.8 V - guarantees low leakage in standby or high-impedance sensing nodes |
| Thermal Resistance | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead - allows direct thermal path to PCB copper for reliable derating |
| 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4756A | Same 47 V nominal, but ±5% tolerance (A suffix) and no RoHS or tape-and-reel designation | Acceptable where tighter tolerance not required; requires manual handling and Pb-based solder process | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision and environmental compliance needs |
| MMSZ47ET1G | Surface-mount SOD-123 package, same 47 V ±2%, 500 mW rating, 30 Ω ZZT | Used in space-constrained designs; lower power rating limits continuous clamp duty cycle | Select for high-density PCB layouts where axial leads are incompatible with layout constraints |
Compared with 1N4756A and MMSZ47ET1G, the 1N4756CE3/TR13 uniquely combines ±2% tolerance, 1.0 W power capability, RoHS compliance, and tape-and-reel packaging-making it optimal for automated, precision, and environmentally compliant industrial power designs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4756CE3/TR13?
The 1N4756CE3/TR13 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±2%, denoted by the "C" suffix in the part number. This is verified per Microsemi's published electrical characteristics table, where VZ = 47 V at IZT = 5.5 mA with maximum deviation of ±0.94 V. The tighter tolerance reduces calibration burden in precision analog circuits compared to the ±5% 1N4756A variant.
Does the 1N4756CE3/TR13 meet RoHS requirements?
Yes, the 1N4756CE3/TR13 meets RoHS requirements, as confirmed by the "e3" suffix indicating RoHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. The device uses void-free thermosetting epoxy body meeting UL94V-0 and contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE above threshold limits.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4756CE3/TR13?
The 1N4756CE3/TR13 has a maximum surge current (ISM) rating of 1500 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient per Note 3 in the Microsemi datasheet. This rating applies to transient overvoltage clamping in power rail protection applications.
How is polarity marked on the 1N4756CE3/TR13?
The 1N4756CE3/TR13 uses a cathode band to indicate polarity: the banded end is the cathode and must be held at a higher potential than the anode for Zener regulation. This marking conforms to JEDEC DO-41 mechanical standards and is visible on the black epoxy body; correct orientation is critical for proper reverse-bias operation.
What does the "TR13" suffix signify in 1N4756CE3/TR13?
"TR13" indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standard, with 13-inch reels. This format enables automated pick-and-place assembly and is distinct from bulk or ammo-pack options. The "TR" suffix is added to the base part number per Microsemi's packaging guidelines, and the "13" specifies reel diameter-not quantity or orientation.
