Product details
Overview
1N4758APE3/TR8 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W plastic-encapsulated Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 56 V, ±5% tolerance (A suffix), 4.5 mA test current (IZT), 110 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and maximum reverse current of 5 μA at 42.6 V. It regulates voltage in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits across industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4758APE3/TR8 datasheet, 1N4758APE3/TR8 pinout, 1N4758APE3/TR8 application, or 1N4758APE3/TR8 equivalent, key selection factors include its DO-41 package thermal resistance (45 °C/W junction-to-lead), 1500 mA surge current rating, RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and moisture sensitivity level 1 compliance without dry pack requirement.
Technical Context
This axial-lead Zener operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across varying load and line conditions. Its 56 V regulation point targets mid-range voltage reference needs where higher-voltage Zeners like 1N4760A (68 V) or lower-voltage variants like 1N4757A (51 V) are unsuitable.
Designed for through-hole mounting on FR4 PCBs, it delivers 1.0 W steady-state dissipation at lead temperature <105 °C or ambient <45 °C with specified copper pad layout. Its 0.7 g weight and UL94V-0 epoxy case support reliable mechanical integration in space-constrained industrial assemblies.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4758A-T | Same 56 V, ±5%, DO-41, but non-RoHS tin-lead plating; no e3 suffix | Not suitable for lead-free assembly; otherwise identical regulation behavior | Select 1N4758A-T only if Sn/Pb soldering is mandated and RoHS exemption applies |
| MMBZ5256BS-7-F | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; same 56 V, ±5%; 200 mW rating; 50 Ω ZZT | Limited to low-power signal-level clamping; cannot replace 1N4758APE3/TR8 in 1 W applications | Choose MMBZ5256BS-7-F only for space-constrained PCBs where thermal derating permits ≤200 mW operation |
Compared with 1N4758A-T and MMBZ5256BS-7-F, the 1N4758APE3/TR8 uniquely combines 1 W power handling, RoHS compliance, and DO-41 mechanical robustness-making it the sole option for through-hole, high-reliability, lead-free 56 V shunt regulation.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4758APE3/TR8?
The 1N4758APE3/TR8 has a nominal Zener voltage of 56 V with ±5% tolerance, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its part number per JEDEC registration. This means the actual measured Vz at 4.5 mA test current falls between 53.2 V and 58.8 V under standard test conditions (TL = 25 °C ±8 °C, 90 seconds after current application). The tolerance is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range of –65 °C to +150 °C.
Does the 1N4758APE3/TR8 require dry packing before PCB assembly?
No, the 1N4758APE3/TR8 does not require dry packing prior to assembly. It is moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it can be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions without exposure to moisture-related damage during reflow. This eliminates baking steps and simplifies manufacturing logistics for high-volume production of boards using the 1N4758APE3/TR8.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4758APE3/TR8?
The 1N4758APE3/TR8 has a maximum surge current (ISM) rating of 2000 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave or equivalent sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating reflects its ability to absorb short-duration overvoltage transients without parametric shift or failure, making it suitable for clamping applications in industrial power rails where lightning-induced surges or inductive kickback may occur.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4758APE3/TR8 compare between junction-to-lead and junction-to-ambient?
The 1N4758APE3/TR8 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W when measured at 3/8 inch (10 mm) lead length from the body, while its junction-to-ambient resistance is 105 °C/W when mounted on an FR4 PCB with 1 oz copper, 4 mm² pads, and 1 mm × 25 mm traces. This 2.3× difference highlights the importance of proper lead termination and heatsinking-designers must use the junction-to-lead value for lead-mounted thermal calculations and the junction-to-ambient value only under the specified board layout.
Is the 1N4758APE3/TR8 compatible with both lead-free and tin-lead soldering processes?
Yes, the 1N4758APE3/TR8 features RoHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plating that is qualified for both lead-free reflow (up to 260 °C for 10 s) and traditional tin-lead wave or hand soldering. Its termination meets MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 for solderability, ensuring reliable wetting and joint formation regardless of solder alloy. This dual-process compatibility supports mixed-technology manufacturing lines using the 1N4758APE3/TR8.
