Product details
Overview
1N4757CE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 51 V, ±2% tolerance, 1 W axial-lead silicon Zener diode in DO-41 package, rated for 5.0 mA test current, 95 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 1500 mA maximum regulator current at TL = 50°C. It delivers stable voltage regulation in power supply reference, overvoltage protection, and precision biasing circuits across industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4757CE3/TR13 datasheet, 1N4757CE3/TR13 pinout, 1N4757CE3/TR13 application, or 1N4757CE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its tight ±2% Zener voltage tolerance (C suffix), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating (e3 suffix), tape-and-reel packaging (TR13 suffix), and DO-41 thermal performance with 45°C/W junction-to-lead resistance.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse-bias breakdown mode to maintain a stable 51 V reference across a wide operating current range (5 mA to 1500 mA) and temperature span (–65°C to +150°C). Its Zener knee is characterized by 0.5 mA test current and 18 Ω dynamic impedance at that point, ensuring low-noise regulation onset.
The 1N4757CE3/TR13 exhibits a positive temperature coefficient near 51 V (≈+12 mV/°C per Figure 3), enabling predictable drift compensation in multi-diode references. Its DO-41 package supports axial mounting with cathode band polarity marking and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B Level 1 moisture sensitivity without dry pack requirement.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 51 V ±2% at 5.0 mA - ensures precise reference accuracy for feedback loops and analog thresholds |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105°C (3/8″ lead length) - defines safe continuous operation with standard PCB heatsinking |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 95 Ω at IZT = 5.0 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients |
| Maximum Regulator Current (IZM) | 1500 mA at TL = 50°C - sets upper limit for shunt regulation capacity before thermal runaway |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <5 μA at VR = 38.8 V - guarantees minimal standby current in high-impedance sensing nodes |
| Forward Voltage | ≤1.2 V at 200 mA - enables use as clamping diode in bidirectional protection schemes |
| Thermal Resistance | 45°C/W junction-to-lead - allows direct thermal modeling using lead length as heatsink path |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4757A | Same 51 V, ±5% tolerance (A suffix), non-RoHS tin-lead plating | Not suitable for lead-free manufacturing; requires dry-pack if stored >12 months | Select when legacy process compatibility outweighs environmental compliance |
| MMSZ5255B-TP | 51 V, ±5%, SOD-123 surface-mount package, 500 mW rating | Lower power handling (500 mW vs. 1000 mW); unsuitable for high-current shunt regulation | Choose only for space-constrained PCBs where thermal derating permits 500 mW operation |
Compared with 1N4757A and MMSZ5255B-TP, the 1N4757CE3/TR13 offers tighter ±2% regulation, RoHS compliance, and full 1 W dissipation in through-hole form-making it optimal for industrial power supplies requiring long-term stability and process alignment.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4757CE3/TR13?
The 1N4757CE3/TR13 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±2%, denoted by the "C" suffix in the part number. This means its nominal 51 V Zener voltage is guaranteed between 49.98 V and 52.02 V when measured at 5.0 mA test current and 25°C lead temperature. This tighter tolerance reduces calibration overhead in precision analog circuits compared to standard ±5% variants like the 1N4757A.
Does the 1N4757CE3/TR13 require dry packing before PCB assembly?
No, the 1N4757CE3/TR13 does not require dry packing. It is moisture-sensitive level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it can be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions without desiccant or humidity-controlled packaging. This simplifies inventory handling and eliminates floor-life tracking for production lines using the 1N4757CE3/TR13.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for the 1N4757CE3/TR13?
The 1N4757CE3/TR13 is rated for 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation at a lead temperature (TL) below 105°C with 3/8″ (10 mm) lead length from the body. When mounted on a standard FR4 PCB with 1 oz copper, its derated power drops to 1.0 W only at ambient temperatures below 45°C due to higher junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (105°C/W).
Can the 1N4757CE3/TR13 be used in surface-mount designs?
The 1N4757CE3/TR13 itself is a DO-41 axial-leaded through-hole device and is not surface-mount compatible. However, Microsemi offers surface-mount equivalents such as the SMAJ4757A and MLL4757A for similar 51 V regulation. The TR13 suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging but does not change the axial-leaded form factor of the 1N4757CE3/TR13.
What is the significance of the "e3" and "TR13" suffixes in 1N4757CE3/TR13?
The "e3" suffix indicates RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, qualified for lead-free reflow soldering at 260°C for 10 seconds. The "TR13" suffix specifies EIA-296-compliant tape-and-reel packaging with 13-inch reels, enabling automated pick-and-place handling despite its axial-leaded construction. Together, they define the 1N4757CE3/TR13 as a production-ready, environmentally compliant variant of the 1N4757 family.
