Product details
Overview
1PMT5941CE3/TR7 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 control modules.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 application, or 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 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 two-terminal voltage-regulating diode with sharp Zener breakdown at 47 V nominal, specified under controlled thermal conditions (TL = 30°C). Its Powermite® package integrates a full metallic bottom and locking tab to enhance thermal conduction and eliminate solder flux entrapment during reflow.
The 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 exhibits 67 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT = 8.0 mA and maintains ≤1 µA reverse leakage up to 35.8 V, enabling stable regulation in low-noise analog supply monitoring and transient suppression circuits where tight voltage reference stability is required.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5941CE3/TR7?
The 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 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 (±2% and ±1%) are available with suffixes C and D, but the CE3/TR7 variant uses the standard ±5% grade. This tolerance ensures predictable clamping behavior in 48 V system protection circuits.
How is thermal management handled in the 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 package?
The 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 uses the Powermite® package with a full metallic bottom and integral locking tab that serves as the primary thermal path to the PCB. Its specified thermal resistance is 30°C/W junction-to-TAB, meaning effective cooling requires direct soldering of TAB 1 to a copper pour or thermal pad. No external heatsink is needed for 3.0 W operation at 60°C TAB temperature.
Is the 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5941CE3/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 bottom are designed to withstand thermal cycling without delamination or solder joint failure, and the full metallic bottom prevents flux entrapment during reflow-critical for high-yield manufacturing.
What does the "TR7" suffix indicate in 1PMT5941CE3/TR7?
The "TR7" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA Standard 481, with 3,000 units per 7-inch reel. This format ensures compatibility with high-speed SMT pick-and-place equipment. The "CE3" portion indicates the ±5% Zener voltage tolerance and the Powermite® package variant; "E3" is Microsemi's internal package code for the DO-216AA outline with metallic tab.
Can the 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 be used in bidirectional transient suppression?
No, the 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 is a unidirectional Zener diode configured for cathode-to-anode breakdown only. It is not rated for reverse conduction or bidirectional TVS operation. For bidirectional transient suppression, a dedicated TVS diode such as SMAJ47A or equivalent would be required. The 1PMT5941CE3/TR7 functions strictly as a forward-biased anode / reverse-biased cathode voltage clamp.
