Product details
Overview
1PMT5941A/TR13 from Microsemi is a 47 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 67 Ω dynamic impedance at 8.0 mA test current and 1000 µA max reverse leakage at 35.8 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in DC power rails of industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5941A/TR13 datasheet, 1PMT5941A/TR13 pinout, 1PMT5941A/TR13 application, or 1PMT5941A/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (30°C/W junction-to-TAB), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), low knee impedance, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly per EIA-481 tape-and-reel packaging.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to regulate or clamp voltage with tight voltage tolerance and low dynamic impedance. Its Powermite® package integrates a full metallic bottom and locking tab for mechanical stability and thermal conduction to PCB copper.
The device exhibits 1000 µA maximum reverse leakage at VR = 35.8 V and maintains stable regulation across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range. Thermal resistance of 30°C/W from junction to TAB 1 enables effective heat dissipation in high-density layouts without external heatsinking.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5368B | Same 47 V nominal, but DO-204AL (DO-41) through-hole package; 3.0 W rating at 75°C ambient; no metallic bottom or locking tab | Requires manual or wave soldering; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select when legacy through-hole design or higher ambient temp derating is required |
| BZX84-C47 | SOT-23 package; 47 V ±5%; 300 mW power rating; 100 Ω typical ZZT; 100 µA IR at 37.6 V | Limited to low-power signal-level clamping; cannot sustain 3.0 W continuous dissipation | Select only for low-current bias/reference use, not for power rail protection |

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5941A/TR13?
The 1PMT5941A/TR13 has a standard zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 47 V, measured at 8.0 mA test current with TAB 1 held at 30°C. Tighter tolerances of ±2% (suffix C) and ±1% (suffix D) are available upon request, but the base part number 1PMT5941A/TR13 reflects the ±5% grade.
How is thermal performance specified for 1PMT5941A/TR13?
1PMT5941A/TR13 specifies a thermal resistance of 30°C/W from junction to TAB 1. This value assumes direct thermal conduction from the metallic TAB 1 to a sufficiently sized PCB copper pour. The 3.0 W power rating is valid only when TAB 1 temperature is maintained at ≤60°C, making thermal layout critical for full power operation.
Is 1PMT5941A/TR13 compatible with automated SMT assembly?
Yes, 1PMT5941A/TR13 is supplied in EIA-481 compliant tape-and-reel format (13-inch reel, 12,000 pieces) and features a Powermite® package with integral locking tab and flat metallic bottom-both engineered for reliable pick-and-place, reflow soldering, and zero flux entrapment during automated manufacturing.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5941A/TR13?
The maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5941A/TR13 is 1000 µA at a reverse voltage of 35.8 V, tested at TL = 30°C. This parameter is critical for low-power standby circuits, where excessive leakage could compromise battery life or system quiescent current budgets.
Does 1PMT5941A/TR13 have ESD protection built-in?
Yes, 1PMT5941A/TR13 is rated for >16 kV electrostatic discharge per the Human Body Model (HBM), verified per JEDEC JS-001. This intrinsic ESD robustness eliminates the need for external TVS devices in many I/O protection schemes, simplifying BOM and layout for sensitive analog or digital interfaces.
