Product details
Overview
1PMT5935C/TR7 from Microsemi is a 27 V, ±1% tolerance Zener diode in the Powermite® surface-mount package, rated for 3.0 W DC power dissipation at TAB 1 = 60°C, with 23 Ω dynamic impedance at 13.9 mA test current and thermal resistance of 30°C/W junction-to-tab - used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5935C/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5935C/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5935C/TR7 application, or 1PMT5935C/TR7 equivalent, key selection factors include its tight 1% voltage tolerance (suffix C), low 23 Ω Zener impedance, ESD rating >16 kV HBM, full metallic bottom for flux-free assembly, and compatibility with automated insertion equipment.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device with cathode designated by TAB 1, requiring no external biasing. Its Powermite® package integrates a locking tab that functions as both mechanical anchor and heat sink, enabling direct thermal conduction from junction to PCB copper via the metallic bottom.
It delivers stable 27 V regulation under DC conditions at IZT = 13.9 mA, with knee current IZK = 0.25 mA and knee impedance ZZK = 700 Ω - ensuring reliable turn-on behavior even at low currents. Reverse leakage remains ≤1 µA at VR = 20.6 V, supporting low-power standby regulation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 27 V ±1% at IZT = 13.9 mA - enables precise feedback sensing in 24 V system regulators. |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - supports high-energy transient clamping without derating in compact layouts. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 23 Ω at 13.9 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load current changes. |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB 1 - allows direct thermal path to PCB ground plane for sustained power handling. |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV per Human Body Model - provides robust handling safety during SMT assembly and field operation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMF27A (ON Semiconductor) | 27 V, ±5%, 200 W peak pulse power, DO-219AB package, 1.1 mm height - higher surge capability but looser tolerance. | Better suited for transient suppression only; not recommended where 1% DC regulation accuracy is required. | Select when surge immunity dominates over DC precision. |
| BZX84-C27 (Diodes Inc.) | 27 V, ±5%, 300 mW, SOT-23 package - lower power, higher ZZT (~50 Ω), no integrated heat sink tab. | Limited to low-power signal-level clamping; cannot replace 1PMT5935C/TR7 in 3 W power regulation roles. | Select only for space-constrained, low-current bias networks. |
Compared with SMF27A and BZX84-C27, the 1PMT5935C/TR7 uniquely combines 1% DC voltage accuracy, 3.0 W continuous dissipation, and integrated thermal management - making it the only choice for high-stability, high-power Zener regulation in industrial and automotive control modules.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of 1PMT5935C/TR7?
The "C" suffix in 1PMT5935C/TR7 denotes ±1% Zener voltage tolerance at IZT = 13.9 mA and TC = 30°C. This is tighter than the standard ±5% (suffix B) and supports high-accuracy feedback in regulated power supplies where output stability is critical. The 1PMT5935C/TR7 achieves this via laser-trimmed wafer-level process control.
How is thermal management handled in the 1PMT5935C/TR7 package?
The 1PMT5935C/TR7 uses the Powermite® package with a full metallic bottom and integral locking tab that serves as both mechanical anchor and primary heat sink. Its 30°C/W junction-to-TAB 1 thermal resistance enables efficient conduction to PCB copper, allowing the 1PMT5935C/TR7 to sustain 3.0 W dissipation without external heatsinks when mounted on ≥1 sq-in. 2-oz copper.
Is the 1PMT5935C/TR7 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5935C/TR7 is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020, with peak temperature rating up to 260°C. Its molded epoxy body and metallic terminations withstand standard SAC305 profiles. The full metallic bottom also improves thermal uniformity during reflow, reducing warpage risk - a key advantage of the 1PMT5935C/TR7 over plastic-bodied alternatives.
What does the "TR7" suffix indicate in 1PMT5935C/TR7?
The "TR7" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481 standard on a 7-inch reel containing 3,000 units. This format is optimized for high-speed pick-and-place machines and ensures consistent orientation (cathode TAB 1 leading) during automated assembly - a verified handling feature of the 1PMT5935C/TR7 confirmed in Microsemi's packaging specification MSC0995.
Can the 1PMT5935C/TR7 be used as a replacement for through-hole Zeners like 1N5254B?
No - the 1PMT5935C/TR7 is not a drop-in replacement for 1N5254B due to different package (Powermite® vs. DO-35), thermal path (TAB 1 conduction vs. lead-frame convection), and mounting requirements. While both regulate at ~27 V, the 1PMT5935C/TR7 requires dedicated thermal pad layout and reflow profile validation. Direct substitution without board redesign is not supported for the 1PMT5935C/TR7.
