Product details
Overview
1N4759AP/TR12 from Microsemi is a 1.0 W axial-lead silicon Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 62 V, ±5% tolerance (A suffix), 4.0 mA test current (IZT), 125 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and maximum reverse current of 5 μA at 47.1 V. It regulates voltage in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits across industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4759AP/TR12 datasheet, 1N4759AP/TR12 pinout, 1N4759AP/TR12 application, or 1N4759AP/TR12 equivalent, key selection factors include its DO-41 package thermal resistance (45 °C/W junction-to-lead), 1500 mA maximum surge current, and RoHS-compliant e3 plating option confirmed in Microsemi's REV C datasheet.
Technical Context
This discrete Zener operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across varying load and line conditions. Its 62 V regulation point targets mid-range DC bus monitoring and feedback loop references where tighter than 10% tolerance is required but ultra-precision is unnecessary.
The device uses standard silicon PN junction construction with cathode band marking, rated for -65 °C to +150 °C operation, and exhibits 0.085 %/°C typical temperature coefficient per Figure 3 of the datasheet-consistent with Zeners above 50 V.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4759A (non-P, non-TR) | Same electrical specs but glass-body (DO-35) package; higher thermal resistance (75 °C/W) | Limited to lower-power or through-hole prototyping; not suitable for high-reliability plastic-encapsulated designs | Select 1N4759AP/TR12 when DO-41 mechanical robustness and lower θJL are required |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N4759AP/TR12?
The 1N4759AP/TR12 has a nominal Zener voltage of 62 V with ±5% tolerance, as indicated by the "A" suffix in the part number per Microsemi's REV C datasheet. This tolerance is measured at 4.0 mA test current and 25 °C lead temperature, and applies across the full operating temperature range of -65 °C to +150 °C.
Does 1N4759AP/TR12 support automated assembly?
Yes, the "TR12" suffix confirms that 1N4759AP/TR12 is supplied in EIA-296 compliant tape-and-reel format, optimized for pick-and-place machines. The DO-41 package's axial lead geometry and 0.7 g weight meet standard feeder requirements, and the matte-tin plating ensures reliable solder wetting during reflow.
What is the maximum surge current rating for 1N4759AP/TR12?
The 1N4759AP/TR12 is rated for 2000 mA peak reverse surge current (ISM) under 1/120 second half-sine wave conditions at 25 °C ambient, as specified in Microsemi's datasheet Table on page 1. This enables use in transient voltage suppression applications without derating for short-duration overloads.
Is 1N4759AP/TR12 RoHS compliant?
Yes, the "e3" designation in the full manufacturer part number (1N4759AP,e3/TR12) confirms RoHS compliance per EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The terminals feature annealed matte-tin plating, and the void-free epoxy body meets UL94V-0 flammability rating-both verified in Microsemi's official documentation.
How does thermal resistance differ between 1N4759AP/TR12 and glass-body variants?
The 1N4759AP/TR12 (plastic DO-41) has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 45 °C/W at 3/8″ lead length, versus 75 °C/W for the glass-body 1N4759A (DO-35). This 40% lower θJL allows higher continuous power dissipation in thermally constrained layouts without exceeding 150 °C junction temperature.
