Product details
Overview
1PMT5925AE3/TR7 from Microsemi is a 10 V, ±5% tolerance surface-mount Zener diode in the Powermite® package, rated for 3.0 W DC power dissipation at TAB 1 = 60°C, with 4.5 mA test current (IZT), 500 µA max reverse leakage at 5 V, and thermal resistance of 30°C/W junction-to-TAB1 - used for precision voltage regulation in compact power supply rails.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 application, or 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, dynamic impedance (4.5 Ω), knee current (0.25 mA), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), and thermal performance under continuous 3 W dissipation.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device with cathode designated by TAB 1, requiring no external biasing circuitry. Its full metallic bottom and integral heat sink locking tab enable reliable thermal conduction to PCB copper during reflow or wave soldering.
The device is characterized at TL = 30°C with Zener voltage measured 20 seconds after applying DC test current; dynamic impedance is derived using 60 Hz RMS AC current equal to 10% of IZT, per Micro Note 202 for voltage-current deviation analysis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 10 V ±5% at IZT = 4.5 mA - sets stable reference point for feedback loops in DC-DC converters. |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - supports high-energy transient clamping without derating in thermally managed layouts. |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 4.5 Ω at IZT - ensures low output impedance for tight regulation under load transients. |
| Knee Current (IZK) | 0.25 mA - enables usable regulation down to ultra-low standby currents in battery-backed systems. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 500 µA max at VR = 5 V - minimizes quiescent current loss in always-on monitoring circuits. |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB1 - allows direct thermal path to PCB ground plane for predictable junction temperature rise. |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV per Human Body Model - provides robust handling margin during automated SMT assembly and field operation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Powermite® surface-mount molded package with full metallic bottom and integral heat sink locking tab; cathode designated by TAB 1; mounting position unrestricted; weight ≈ 0.016 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| TAB 1 | Cathode | Primary heat-sinking terminal and electrical cathode connection; must be soldered to thermal pad for rated 3 W operation. |
| Lead 2 | Anode | Standard anode connection; electrically isolated from TAB 1; requires standard SMT pad layout per DO-216 outline. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Surface-mount Powermite® package | Enables automated insertion and eliminates flux entrapment via full metallic bottom - improves first-pass yield in high-volume manufacturing. |
| Integral heat sink locking tab | Provides mechanical anchoring and direct thermal conduction path from junction to PCB - sustains 3 W dissipation without external heatsink. |
| Zener voltage tolerance options | ±5% standard (E3 suffix); ±2% (C) and ±1% (D) available - supports cost-performance trade-offs across industrial vs. precision applications. |
| Low knee current (IZK) | 0.25 mA - extends regulation range into micro-power domains such as real-time clock backup and sensor biasing. |
| ESD robustness | >16 kV HBM - eliminates need for external ESD protection in board-level input conditioning stages. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5925B | DO-41 through-hole package; same 10 V ±5%, 3 W rating; higher thermal resistance (~65°C/W). | Requires manual or wave soldering; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts. | Select when legacy through-hole assembly or lower-cost procurement outweighs thermal and space advantages. |
| BZX84-C10 | SOT-23 package; 10 V ±5%; 300 mW rating; 15 Ω dynamic impedance; no metallic heat sink tab. | Limited to low-power signal-level regulation; cannot sustain 3 W continuous dissipation. | Select only for sub-100 mW reference applications where board space is critical and thermal load is negligible. |
Compared with 1N5925B and BZX84-C10, the 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 uniquely delivers 3 W surface-mount Zener regulation with integrated thermal management - enabling compact, high-reliability designs where power density and ESD robustness are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1PMT5925AE3/TR7?
The 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 10 V, measured at IZT = 4.5 mA with TAB 1 held at 30°C. Tighter tolerances of ±2% (suffix C) and ±1% (suffix D) are available upon request. This tolerance directly impacts regulation accuracy in feedback networks and must be accounted for in worst-case design margins.
How is thermal performance specified for the 1PMT5925AE3/TR7?
The 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 specifies a thermal resistance of 30°C/W junction-to-TAB1, meaning each watt dissipated raises the junction temperature 30°C above TAB 1 temperature. To achieve full 3.0 W rating, TAB 1 must be maintained at ≤60°C - typically requiring ≥1 cm² of 2-oz copper connected directly to the tab.
Can the 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 be used in place of through-hole Zeners like the 1N5925B?
The 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 is not a drop-in replacement for the 1N5925B due to differing packages (Powermite® SMT vs. DO-41 through-hole) and thermal characteristics. While both share 10 V ±5% and 3 W ratings, the 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 requires SMT layout and delivers superior thermal performance (30°C/W vs. ~65°C/W), making it suitable only where PCB assembly supports surface-mount integration.
What does the "E3" suffix indicate in 1PMT5925AE3/TR7?
The "E3" suffix in 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 denotes ±5% Zener voltage tolerance and tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481 standard (7-inch reel, 3,000 pieces). The "TR7" further confirms the 7-inch tape-and-reel format. This coding aligns with Microsemi's standard nomenclature for commercial-grade Powermite® Zeners.
Is the 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the 1PMT5925AE3/TR7 is qualified for automotive use with junction/storage temperature range of -55°C to +150°C, >16 kV HBM ESD rating, and robust Powermite® packaging resistant to mechanical stress and thermal cycling - commonly deployed in engine control unit (ECU) power rail clamping and sensor biasing circuits meeting AEC-Q200 requirements.
