Product details
Overview
1PMT5929A/TR7 from Microsemi is a 15 V, 3.0 W surface-mount Zener diode in the Powermite® package with 9.0 Ω dynamic impedance at 25 mA test current, 600 µA max reverse leakage at 11.4 V, and thermal resistance of 30°C/W junction-to-tab. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in DC power rails and analog signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5929A/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5929A/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5929A/TR7 application, or 1PMT5929A/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±5%), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), junction-to-tab thermal resistance, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly using EIA-481 tape-and-reel packaging.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage regulation across varying load currents. Its Powermite® package integrates a metallic tab (TAB 1) as both cathode terminal and primary heat path, enabling 3.0 W dissipation when tab temperature is held at 60°C.
The device exhibits low knee impedance (≤9.0 Ω at IZT = 25 mA) and tight voltage control-VZ = 15.0 V ±5% at IZT = 25 mA, with reverse leakage limited to 600 µA at VR = 11.4 V. It meets human-body-model ESD requirements exceeding 16 kV.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 15.0 V ±5% at 25 mA - defines regulated output voltage under nominal bias |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W with TAB 1 at 60°C - sets maximum continuous thermal load in PCB-mounted condition |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 9.0 Ω at 25 mA - determines voltage deviation under small-signal current changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 600 µA max at 11.4 V - limits standby power loss in clamping applications |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB1 - enables thermal design using tab as heatsink anchor point |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV per HBM - ensures robustness during handling and board assembly |
| Package | Powermite® (DO-216) - surface-mount molded package with full metallic bottom and locking tab |
Pinout & Package
Powermite® package features a single metallic tab (TAB 1) serving as the cathode terminal and primary thermal interface. The anode is connected to the molded body lead. Mounting orientation is unrestricted.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMCJ15A | TVS diode (not Zener); 15 V standoff, 24.4 V clamping, 1500 W peak pulse power | Designed for transient suppression, not precision regulation; higher clamping voltage, no DC regulation capability | Select for surge/ESD protection where precise DC voltage control is unnecessary |
| BZX84-C15 | SOT-23 package; 15 V ±5%, 300 mW power, 20 Ω impedance, 100 nA leakage at 12 V | Lower power, smaller footprint, higher impedance, negligible leakage - suited for low-current biasing only | Select for space-constrained, low-power bias/reference needs where 3.0 W dissipation is not required |
Compared with SMCJ15A and BZX84-C15, the 1PMT5929A/TR7 uniquely delivers 3.0 W DC power handling in a surface-mount package with validated thermal performance via TAB 1, making it suitable for sustained regulation and moderate-power clamping where precision and thermal robustness are critical.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5929A/TR7?
The 1PMT5929A/TR7 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 15.0 V nominal, measured at 25 mA test current and 30°C tab temperature. Tighter tolerances of ±2% (suffix C) and ±1% (suffix D) are available as custom order options, but the base 1PMT5929A/TR7 part adheres strictly to the ±5% specification per MSC0995 Rev F.
How is thermal management implemented in the 1PMT5929A/TR7 package?
The 1PMT5929A/TR7 uses its metallic TAB 1 as the primary thermal conduction path, with a specified junction-to-tab thermal resistance of 30°C/W. Effective cooling requires direct thermal connection of TAB 1 to a PCB copper pour or external heatsink; the full metallic bottom prevents flux entrapment and enhances solder joint reliability during reflow.
Is the 1PMT5929A/TR7 compatible with automated SMT assembly processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5929A/TR7 is supplied in EIA-481 compliant tape-and-reel format (7-inch reel, 3,000 pieces) and designed for compatibility with standard pick-and-place equipment. Its Powermite® package includes a locking tab that improves mechanical stability during placement and reflow, and the full metallic bottom eliminates solder flux entrapment risks.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5929A/TR7 at rated conditions?
The 1PMT5929A/TR7 specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 600 µA at a reverse voltage (VR) of 11.4 V and ambient temperature of 30°C. This value is verified per the electrical characteristics table in MSC0995 Rev F and reflects worst-case leakage under defined test conditions.
Does the 1PMT5929A/TR7 have an industry-standard package outline?
Yes, the 1PMT5929A/TR7 uses the DO-216 package outline, as confirmed by mechanical drawings in MSC0995 Rev F. All dimensions are specified in inches with ±0.005 inch tolerance, and the package is fully compatible with standard DO-216 footprint land patterns used for surface-mount Zener diodes across multiple manufacturers.
