Product details
Overview
1N4758CP/TR12 from Microsemi is a 56 V, 1 W axial-lead Zener diode in DO-41 plastic package with ±5% voltage tolerance, 4.5 mA test current, and 110 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4758CP/TR12 datasheet, 1N4758CP/TR12 pinout, 1N4758CP/TR12 application, or 1N4758CP/TR12 equivalent, key selection factors include its 56 V nominal Zener voltage, 1.0 W power rating at 25 °C, DO-41 mechanical outline, cathode-band polarity marking, and TR12 tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly.
Technical Context
This discrete Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across a wide current range (0.25 mA to 2 A surge), with thermal resistance of 45 °C/W junction-to-lead and 105 °C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 PCB. Its Zener knee occurs at 0.25 mA with 16 Ω impedance, enabling low-current regulation.
It features moisture sensitivity Level 1 per J-STD-020B (no dry pack required), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, UL94V-0 epoxy case, and is rated for operation from –65 °C to +150 °C. Forward voltage is ≤1.2 V at 200 mA.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4758A | No TR suffix - bulk bag packaging; same electrical specs and DO-41 package | Lacks tape-and-reel format; unsuitable for automated SMT lines requiring TR12 carrier tape | Select 1N4758CP/TR12 when board-level automation requires EIA-296 compliant feeding |
| MMSZ5256ET1G | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 56 V ±5%, 500 mW rating; 100 Ω ZZT at 10 mA | Lower power rating and different footprint - requires PCB redesign and derating for 1 W operation | Choose MMSZ5256ET1G only for space-constrained designs where 500 mW suffices and reflow compatibility is prioritized |
Compared with 1N4758A and MMSZ5256ET1G, the 1N4758CP/TR12 uniquely combines 1 W power handling, DO-41 axial-leaded form factor, and TR12 tape-and-reel delivery-making it optimal for through-hole or mixed-technology production requiring high-current regulation and automated assembly support.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4758CP/TR12?
The 1N4758CP/TR12 has a nominal Zener voltage of 56 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its JEDEC designation. This tolerance is specified at 4.5 mA test current and 25 °C lead temperature, and applies across its full operating temperature range of –65 °C to +150 °C. The "P" suffix confirms plastic DO-41 construction, and "TR12" denotes EIA-296 tape-and-reel packaging.
Does the 1N4758CP/TR12 require dry packing before reflow soldering?
No, the 1N4758CP/TR12 does not require dry packing prior to reflow. It is rated Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it can be stored indefinitely at standard ambient conditions without baking. This eliminates pre-reflow moisture mitigation steps and reduces process complexity in manufacturing lines handling the 1N4758CP/TR12.
What is the maximum surge current rating for the 1N4758CP/TR12?
The 1N4758CP/TR12 is rated for a maximum non-repetitive reverse surge current (ISM) of 2000 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating supports transient overvoltage clamping in 48 V industrial systems, provided thermal limits are observed and adequate PCB copper area is used for heat dissipation during surge events involving the 1N4758CP/TR12.
How does the thermal resistance of the 1N4758CP/TR12 affect its power derating?
The 1N4758CP/TR12 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W at 10 mm lead length, meaning each watt of dissipated power raises the junction temperature by 45 °C above lead temperature. At ambient temperatures above 25 °C or with limited PCB copper area, power must be derated linearly per Microsemi's Figure 1 curve to keep junction temperature below 150 °C - a key constraint when designing systems using the 1N4758CP/TR12 for continuous regulation.
Is the 1N4758CP/TR12 RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N4758CP/TR12 is RoHS compliant, as confirmed by the "e3" designation in Microsemi's official documentation for the 1N4728AP–1N4764AP,e3 series. Its terminations use annealed matte-tin plating, and its void-free thermosetting epoxy case meets UL94V-0 flammability requirements - all verified for compliance in devices shipped with the "e3" suffix, including the 1N4758CP/TR12.
