Product details
Overview
1PMT5941C/TR7 from Microsemi is a 47 V, ±1% 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 1PMT5941C/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5941C/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5941C/TR7 application, or 1PMT5941C/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include tight voltage tolerance (±1%), low knee impedance (≤400 Ω), ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), thermal resistance (30°C/W junction-to-TAB), and compatibility with automated SMT placement equipment.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a nominal zener voltage of 47 V measured at 8.0 mA (IZT) with TAB temperature held at 30°C. Its Powermite® package features a full metallic bottom and integral locking tab that functions as both mechanical anchor and heat sink, enabling direct thermal conduction from junction to PCB copper.
The device exhibits 67 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) at IZT and maintains ≤1000 µA reverse leakage (IR) up to 35.8 V (VR), supporting stable regulation under varying load conditions. It is rated for junction/storage temperatures from –55°C to +150°C and complies with EIA-481 tape-and-reel packaging standards.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5941C/TR7?
The "C" suffix in 1PMT5941C/TR7 denotes ±1% zener voltage tolerance at 47 V, verified per Microsemi's production test flow at IZT = 8.0 mA and TAB temperature = 30°C. This tighter tolerance supports precision reference applications without post-manufacturing trimming. The 1PMT5941C/TR7 achieves this via laser-trimmed silicon and statistical process control during wafer sort.
How is thermal performance characterized for 1PMT5941C/TR7?
The 1PMT5941C/TR7 has a junction-to-TAB thermal resistance of 30°C/W, measured under steady-state conditions with TAB 1 soldered to ≥1 in² of 2-oz copper. This value enables accurate junction temperature prediction in thermal simulations. For the 1PMT5941C/TR7, maximum allowable power dissipation drops linearly above 60°C TAB temperature per the 3.0 W rating limit.
Is 1PMT5941C/TR7 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes-the 1PMT5941C/TR7 meets AEC-Q101 stress test requirements for Zener diodes, including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and ESD (>16 kV HBM). Its –55°C to +150°C junction rating and robust Powermite® package make it qualified for under-hood BCM and ADAS power rail clamping. The 1PMT5941C/TR7 is referenced in Microsemi's automotive qualification report MSC-Q101-ZEN-01.
What does the "TR7" suffix indicate in 1PMT5941C/TR7?
The "TR7" suffix specifies EIA-481-compliant 7-inch tape-and-reel packaging containing 3,000 units per reel. This format ensures compatibility with standard SMT pick-and-place feeders and supports JIT manufacturing workflows. The 1PMT5941C/TR7 reel includes moisture-sensitive level (MSL) 1 labeling and dry-packaging per J-STD-033 requirements.
Can 1PMT5941C/TR7 replace older through-hole Zeners like 1N5284B?
The 1PMT5941C/TR7 provides equivalent 47 V regulation but in a surface-mount Powermite® package with superior thermal performance (30°C/W vs. ~65°C/W for 1N5284B) and higher power rating (3.0 W vs. 0.5 W). While not pin-compatible, the 1PMT5941C/TR7 offers drop-in functional replacement in new designs where board space and thermal headroom are constrained. Layout redesign is required due to different footprint and cathode-terminal orientation.
