Product details
Overview
1N4757E3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 51 V, ±5% tolerance, 1 W axial-lead silicon Zener diode in DO-41 (DO-204AL) plastic package, rated for 5.0 mA test current, 95 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 0.25 A maximum regulator current at TA = 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 1N4757E3/TR13 datasheet, 1N4757E3/TR13 pinout, 1N4757E3/TR13 application, or 1N4757E3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 51 V nominal Zener voltage, 1 W steady-state dissipation at TL < 105°C, RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, moisture sensitivity Level 1, and tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296.
Technical Context
This Zener operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 51 V reference across a wide current range (5.0 mA to 90 mA), with low dynamic impedance (95 Ω at IZT) ensuring minimal output variation under load transients. Its thermal resistance is 45 °C/W junction-to-lead (3/8″ lead length) and 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 board.
The device features a sharp knee in the breakdown curve verified by dual-point Zener impedance measurement, complies with JEDEC 1N47xxA registration, and uses void-free UL94V-0 epoxy encapsulation with cathode band polarity marking. It is rated for -65°C to +150°C operating/storage temperature and withstands 260°C soldering for 10 s.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 51 V ±5% at 5.0 mA - defines precise regulation point for reference and clamp circuits |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105°C (3/8″ lead) - sets maximum continuous thermal load without derating |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 95 Ω at IZT = 5.0 mA - determines output voltage stability under small-signal current changes |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 0.25 A at TA = 50°C - limits safe DC current for sustained regulation without thermal runaway |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <5 μA at VR = 38.8 V - ensures low standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Forward Voltage | ≤1.2 V at 200 mA - supports use as forward-conducting clamp or protection diode when needed |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4757A | No "e3" RoHS suffix; Sn/Pb terminations; same electrical specs and DO-41 package | Not suitable for lead-free assembly; requires Pb-based solder process | Select when legacy Pb-process compatibility is required and RoHS exemption applies |
| MMSZ5255B-TP | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 51 V ±5%; 500 mW rating; 170 Ω ZZT at 20 mA | Lower power and higher impedance limit use in high-current or low-noise references | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where 1 W dissipation is not required and reflow compatibility is critical |
Compared with 1N4757A and MMSZ5255B-TP, the 1N4757E3/TR13 offers full 1 W dissipation in through-hole DO-41 with RoHS compliance and industry-standard tape-and-reel delivery-making it optimal for industrial power supplies requiring robust, compliant, and manufacturable voltage regulation.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4757E3/TR13?
The 1N4757E3/TR13 has a nominal Zener voltage of 51 V with a ±5% tolerance, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its JEDEC designation. This means the actual measured VZ at 5.0 mA test current falls between 48.45 V and 53.55 V at TL = 25°C. The tolerance is guaranteed per JEDEC 1N47xxA registration and applies across the full -65°C to +150°C operating range.
Does the 1N4757E3/TR13 support automated assembly?
Yes, the 1N4757E3/TR13 is supplied in EIA-296–compliant tape-and-reel packaging (denoted by "TR13" suffix), enabling direct integration into pick-and-place equipment. Its DO-41 axial-lead form factor is compatible with standard through-hole insertion machines, and the RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating ensures reliable solder wetting during wave or selective soldering processes.
What is the maximum continuous current the 1N4757E3/TR13 can regulate?
The 1N4757E3/TR13 supports a maximum regulator current (IZM) of 0.25 A at ambient temperature TA = 50°C when mounted on an FR4 PCB with specified copper pad geometry. At lower ambient temperatures or with enhanced heatsinking (e.g., longer leads), this current may increase-refer to the derating curve in Figure 1 of the Microsemi datasheet for precise thermal limits.
How does the 1N4757E3/TR13 differ from glass-body Zener diodes?
Unlike glass-body variants (e.g., 1N4757G), the 1N4757E3/TR13 uses a plastic DO-41 package with void-free UL94V-0 epoxy, resulting in lower thermal resistance (45 °C/W vs. ~60–70 °C/W for glass) and no moisture sensitivity concerns. It also eliminates risk of glass breakage during handling or thermal cycling, while maintaining identical electrical specifications and JEDEC registration.
Is the 1N4757E3/TR13 suitable for high-reliability military applications?
The base 1N4757E3/TR13 is not screened to military standards. However, Microsemi offers JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, and JANS versions of this Zener by adding MQ, MX, MV, or MSP prefixes respectively-these undergo extended testing per MIL-PRF-19500 and are qualified for aerospace and defense use. The "E3/TR13" variant is intended for commercial and industrial applications.
