Product details
Overview
1PMT5941BE3/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 <1 µA reverse leakage at 35.8 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in DC power rails of industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 datasheet, 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 pinout, 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 application, or 1PMT5941BE3/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 (0.25 Ω at IZK), 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 (IZT = 8.0 mA). 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 = 35.8 V), a knee impedance of 0.25 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA, and a thermal resistance of 30°C/W from junction to TAB 1 - enabling reliable operation up to +150°C junction temperature under defined power derating conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 47 V ±5% at IZT = 8.0 mA - defines stable clamping/reference point for 48 V nominal systems |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - supports high-energy transient suppression without external heatsink |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 67 Ω at IZT = 8.0 mA - indicates moderate regulation stiffness under small-signal AC perturbations |
| Knee Impedance (ZZK) | 0.25 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA - ensures usable regulation even near breakdown threshold |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <1 µA at VR = 35.8 V - minimizes standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB 1 - enables direct thermal path to PCB copper pour or metal chassis |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV per Human Body Model - provides robust handling margin in manual and automated assembly |

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5941BE3/TR13?
The 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 has a nominal zener voltage of 47 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, measured at IZT = 8.0 mA and TAB temperature = 30°C. Tighter tolerances (±2% and ±1%) are available with suffixes C and D, respectively, but the E3/TR13 variant specifies ±5%. This tolerance ensures predictable clamping behavior in 48 V system designs.
How is thermal management handled in the 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 package?
The 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 uses the Powermite® package with a full metallic bottom and integral locking tab that functions as both mechanical anchor and primary heat sink. Its junction-to-TAB thermal resistance is 30°C/W, allowing direct conduction to PCB copper pours or metal chassis. Proper soldering of TAB 1 to a thermally enhanced pad is required to achieve the rated 3.0 W dissipation at 60°C TAB temperature.
What does the 'TR13' suffix indicate in 1PMT5941BE3/TR13?
The 'TR13' suffix in 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481 standard on a 13-inch reel containing 12,000 units. This format is optimized for high-volume automated SMT placement. The 'E3' portion indicates compliance with JEDEC Level 3 moisture sensitivity, requiring bake-out only if exposed to ambient conditions beyond floor life limits.
Can 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 be used in automotive applications?
Yes, the 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 is qualified for automotive use with operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C and >16 kV HBM ESD rating. Its robust Powermite® package resists mechanical stress during thermal cycling, and its 47 V clamping level aligns with 48 V mild-hybrid vehicle architectures. It is commonly deployed in BCMs and ADAS power domains where transient immunity and thermal resilience are critical.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5941BE3/TR13?
The maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5941BE3/TR13 is <1 µA at VR = 35.8 V and TL = 30°C. This low leakage ensures minimal parasitic current draw in high-impedance reference or bias networks, preserving accuracy in precision analog circuits and extending battery life in always-on monitoring subsystems.
