Product details
Overview
1PMT5939AE3/TR13 from Microsemi is a 39 V, ±5% tolerance Zener diode in Powermite® surface-mount package, rated for 3.0 W DC power dissipation at TAB 1 = 60°C, with 45 Ω dynamic impedance at 9.6 mA test current and 900 µA max reverse leakage at 1.0 V reverse voltage - used for precision voltage regulation in industrial power supplies and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 datasheet, 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 pinout, 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 application, or 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (30°C/W junction-to-TAB), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), low knee impedance, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This device operates as a voltage-reference and clamping element in DC power rails, leveraging its stable 39 V Zener breakdown with tight ±5% initial tolerance and low dynamic impedance (45 Ω) to maintain regulation under varying load currents. Its full metallic bottom and integral heat-sink locking tab enable efficient thermal transfer to PCB copper, supporting sustained 3.0 W dissipation when mounted on adequate thermal pads.
The 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 exhibits low reverse leakage (≤900 µA at VR = 1.0 V), high ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), and specified knee behavior (IZK = 0.25 mA, ZZK = 900 Ω), making it suitable for low-power reference and transient suppression where stability at low bias matters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 39 V ±5% at IZT = 9.6 mA - defines nominal regulation point with production-grade accuracy |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling with thermal derating above 60°C |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 45 Ω at IZT = 9.6 mA - determines output voltage variation under small-signal AC load changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤900 µA at VR = 1.0 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB1 - quantifies temperature rise per watt, guiding PCB copper area design |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV per Human Body Model - supports robustness in handling and board-level ESD events |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5357B | Same 39 V nominal, but in DO-204AL (DO-41) through-hole package; 5 W rating; higher ZZT (50 Ω); no metallic bottom or locking tab | Requires through-hole assembly; better suited for prototyping or legacy designs with manual soldering | Select when board-level thermal management is less critical and through-hole mounting is preferred |
| BZX84-C39 | SOT-23 package; 39 V ±5%; 300 mW rating; ZZT ≈ 90 Ω; no integrated heat sink; lower ESD rating (~8 kV HBM) | Limited to low-power bias/reference use; unsuitable for >100 mA clamping or sustained 3 W loads | Select only for space-constrained, low-dissipation applications where thermal performance is secondary |
Compared with 1N5357B and BZX84-C39, the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 uniquely combines 3.0 W SMT power handling, 30°C/W thermal resistance, and >16 kV ESD robustness - enabling reliable operation in industrial environments where both power density and ruggedness are required.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5939AE3/TR13?
The 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 39 V, measured at IZT = 9.6 mA with TAB 1 held at 30°C. Tighter tolerances (±2%, ±1%) are available with suffixes C and D, but the E3 suffix indicates the standard ±5% version. This tolerance directly impacts regulation accuracy in feedback loops and reference networks using the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13.
How is thermal performance defined for 1PMT5939AE3/TR13?
The 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 has a junction-to-TAB1 thermal resistance of 30°C/W, meaning each watt dissipated raises the junction temperature 30°C above the TAB 1 temperature. Full 3.0 W rating requires TAB 1 maintained at ≤60°C - achieved via adequate PCB copper area and thermal vias. Exceeding this limit risks parametric shift or failure, so thermal design must account for ambient and adjacent heat sources affecting the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13.
Is 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 compatible with standard SMT reflow processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles per J-STD-020, packaged in EIA-481-compliant tape-and-reel (TR13 = 13-inch reel, 12,000 pieces). Its Powermite® package features a full metallic bottom that prevents flux entrapment and ensures consistent solder joint formation - critical for high-yield automated assembly of the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 in volume production.
What does the "E3" suffix indicate in 1PMT5939AE3/TR13?
The "E3" suffix in 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 denotes the standard ±5% Zener voltage tolerance and RoHS-compliant, lead-free finish. It is not a date code or packaging variant - all E3-suffixed parts in the 1PMT59xxB series share this tolerance and environmental compliance. The TR13 designation separately specifies 13-inch tape-and-reel packaging, confirming the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 is supplied in industry-standard format for SMT placement.
Can 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 be used for bidirectional transient suppression?
No - the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 is a unidirectional Zener diode optimized for forward conduction (anode-to-cathode) and reverse breakdown (cathode-to-anode) only. It lacks symmetrical avalanche characteristics and is not rated for bidirectional ESD or surge clamping. For bidirectional protection, discrete TVS arrays or dedicated bidirectional TVS diodes should be used instead of relying on the 1PMT5939AE3/TR13 alone.
