Product details
Overview
1PMT5935BE3/TR7 from Microsemi is a 27 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 13.9 mA test current (IZT), 23 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 1 µA max reverse leakage at 20.6 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in DC power rails of industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 application, or 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (30°C/W junction-to-TAB1), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), low knee impedance, and compatibility with automated SMT placement equipment.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with tightly controlled voltage regulation across its specified test current range. Its Powermite® package integrates a full metallic bottom and locking tab to enhance thermal conduction and mechanical stability during reflow soldering.
The device exhibits low reverse leakage (≤1 µA at VR = 20.6 V), high ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), and stable zener characteristics over -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range - enabling reliable operation in thermally demanding embedded power management circuits.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5935BE3/TR7?
The 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 has a standard zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 27 V, measured at IZT = 13.9 mA and TAB 1 temperature of 30°C. Tighter tolerances (±2% and ±1%) are available with suffixes C and D respectively, but the E3/TR7 variant uses the standard ±5% grade. This tolerance directly impacts voltage reference accuracy in precision analog circuits using the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7.
Can 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 be used in place of through-hole zener diodes?
Yes, the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 replaces axial-lead DO-41 or DO-15 zeners in space-constrained designs, offering identical 27 V regulation with superior thermal performance via its metallic TAB 1. However, its Powermite® footprint requires specific PCB pad layout per MSC0995 mechanical drawings - unlike legacy through-hole parts, the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 relies on thermal pad soldering for full 3.0 W rating.
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for 1PMT5935BE3/TR7?
The 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 begins regulated breakdown at its nominal zener voltage of 27 V, with knee behavior starting near 20.6 V (VR). At VR = 20.6 V, reverse leakage is guaranteed ≤1 µA. Operation below this voltage maintains high impedance; exceeding it initiates controlled conduction. This characteristic defines the usable clamping threshold in overvoltage protection circuits using the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7.
How does the Powermite® package improve thermal performance of 1PMT5935BE3/TR7?
The Powermite® package of the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 features a full metallic bottom and integral locking tab that directly interfaces with PCB copper thermal pads, achieving 30°C/W junction-to-TAB1 thermal resistance. This is significantly better than standard SOD-123 or SOT-23 packages, allowing the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 to sustain 3.0 W dissipation without external heatsinks - critical for compact industrial power modules.
Is 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7 is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles, including JEDEC J-STD-020-compliant peak temperatures up to 260°C. Its molded Powermite® package and metallic terminations withstand thermal cycling without delamination or solder joint failure. The full metallic bottom also promotes uniform heating and minimizes warpage risk during reflow - essential for high-yield manufacturing of boards using the 1PMT5935BE3/TR7.
