Product details
Overview
1N4758P/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 regulator current of 2000 mA at TL = 50°C. It operates across –65°C to +150°C and is used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4758P/TR8 datasheet, 1N4758P/TR8 pinout, 1N4758P/TR8 application, or 1N4758P/TR8 equivalent, key selection factors include its DO-41 package thermal resistance (45°C/W junction-to-lead), 56 V regulation stability over temperature, RoHS-compliant "e3" variant availability, and tape-and-reel packaging (TR8) for automated assembly.
Technical Context
This discrete Zener diode functions as a two-terminal voltage reference device operating in reverse breakdown. Its regulation performance is defined by specified test current (IZT = 4.5 mA), dynamic impedance (ZZT = 110 Ω), and knee impedance (ZZK = 16 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA), ensuring stable clamping across varying load currents.
Designed for axial-lead mounting on FR4 PCBs, it delivers 1.0 W steady-state dissipation at lead temperature <105°C (3/8″ from body) or ambient <45°C with 4 mm² copper pads. Polarity is marked by cathode band; operation requires cathode positive relative to anode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 56 V ±5% - precise DC reference level for feedback loops and clamp thresholds |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TL < 105°C - defines maximum continuous thermal load under lead-heatsink conditions |
| Test Current (IZT) | 4.5 mA - operating point where VZ and ZZT are guaranteed per JEDEC spec |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 110 Ω at IZT - low AC impedance ensures minimal output voltage variation under ripple current |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 2000 mA at TA = 50°C - peak DC current capability before thermal runaway |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 45 °C/W junction-to-lead - enables thermal design using lead as heatsink path |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +150°C - supports 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4758A | No TR8 tape-and-reel packaging; bulk or ammo-pack only; same electrical specs and DO-41 package | Not suitable for automated SMT assembly; requires manual or vibratory feeding | Select 1N4758A only for prototyping or low-volume hand-soldered builds |
| MMSZ5256B-TP | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 56 V, 200 mW rating; 10x lower power; different thermal profile | Used in space-constrained portable electronics-not interchangeable in 1 W thermal designs | Choose MMSZ5256B-TP only when board area is critical and power demand ≤200 mW |
Compared with 1N4758A and MMSZ5256B-TP, the 1N4758P/TR8 uniquely combines 1 W power handling, DO-41 axial-mount compatibility, and EIA-296 tape-and-reel delivery-making it optimal for high-reliability industrial power supplies requiring automated manufacturing and thermal margin.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4758P/TR8?
The 1N4758P/TR8 has a nominal Zener voltage of 56 V with ±5% tolerance, indicated by the "A" suffix in its part number per JEDEC standard. This means the actual measured VZ at 4.5 mA test current falls between 53.2 V and 58.8 V at TL = 25°C. Tighter tolerances (e.g., ±2% or ±1%) require C- or D-suffixed variants, not the 1N4758P/TR8.
Does the 1N4758P/TR8 require dry packing before PCB assembly?
No, the 1N4758P/TR8 is moisture sensitivity Level 1 per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B, meaning it does not require dry pack or baking prior to reflow soldering. Its plastic encapsulation and void-free epoxy body eliminate moisture absorption concerns, simplifying manufacturing logistics and reducing assembly risk.
What is the maximum continuous current the 1N4758P/TR8 can regulate?
The 1N4758P/TR8 supports a maximum regulator current (IZM) of 2000 mA at lead temperature TL = 50°C. At higher temperatures, derating applies: power dissipation drops linearly to zero at TL = 150°C. For ambient-mounted operation on FR4, max IZM is limited by thermal resistance (105°C/W) and board copper area.
Is the 1N4758P/TR8 RoHS compliant?
Yes-the "e3" suffix denotes RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating on the leads, meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The 1N4758P/TR8 uses annealed tin plating per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 and is fully compatible with lead-free soldering processes up to 260°C for 10 seconds.
Can the 1N4758P/TR8 replace a glass-body 1N4758G in existing designs?
Yes-mechanically and electrically interchangeable in most cases. The 1N4758P/TR8 shares identical Zener voltage, tolerance, and current ratings with the glass-body 1N4758G but offers lower thermal resistance (45°C/W vs. ~60°C/W) and eliminates glass breakage risk. No PCB changes are needed, though thermal performance improves with the plastic P-suffix version.
