Product details
Overview
1PMT5943B/TR13 from Microsemi is a 3.0 W surface-mount Zener diode in the Powermite® package, with nominal Zener voltage 56 V at 6.7 mA test current, dynamic impedance 86 Ω, and thermal resistance 30°C/W junction-to-tab. It features full metallic bottom to prevent solder flux entrapment and integral locking tab acting as heat sink, used for voltage regulation in DC power supply rails.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5943B/TR13 datasheet, 1PMT5943B/TR13 pinout, 1PMT5943B/TR13 application, or 1PMT5943B/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), reverse leakage (≤1 µA at 42.6 V), power dissipation capability (3.0 W with tab at 60°C), and ESD rating (>16 kV HBM).
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load or input conditions. Its DO-216 package integrates a metallic tab (TAB 1) as cathode and primary thermal path, enabling efficient heat transfer without external heatsinking in moderate-power applications.
The device exhibits low knee impedance (0.25 Ω at IZK = 1 mA) and tight voltage regulation across temperature (–55°C to +150°C junction range). Zener voltage is specified at TL = 30°C with 20-second stabilization after DC current application per Note 1.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 56 V ±5% at IZT = 6.7 mA - defines regulated output voltage under nominal bias |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W with TAB 1 at 60°C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling with tab cooling |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 86 Ω at IZT - determines voltage deviation under small-signal AC load variations |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤1 µA at VR = 42.6 V - ensures minimal standby current in regulation circuits |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB1 - quantifies temperature rise per watt dissipated through cathode tab |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV HBM - supports robust handling in automated SMT assembly environments |
| Junction Temp Range | –55°C to +150°C - enables operation in extended industrial and automotive under-hood environments |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5943B/TR13?
The 1PMT5943B/TR13 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 56 V, measured at 6.7 mA test current and tab temperature of 30°C. Tighter tolerances (±2% and ±1%) are available with suffixes C and D respectively, but the TR13 variant uses the standard ±5% grade.
How is thermal management handled in the 1PMT5943B/TR13 package?
The 1PMT5943B/TR13 uses its metallic TAB 1 as the primary thermal conduction path, achieving 30°C/W junction-to-tab resistance. This allows 3.0 W continuous dissipation when the tab is mounted to ≥1 cm² of 2-oz copper on FR-4, eliminating need for external heatsinks in most applications.
Can 1PMT5943B/TR13 be used in automotive under-hood environments?
Yes, the 1PMT5943B/TR13 supports junction temperatures from –55°C to +150°C and is qualified for automotive-grade assembly processes. Its >16 kV HBM ESD rating and flux-free metallic bottom make it suitable for BCM and ADAS power rail protection in under-hood modules.
What does the "TR13" suffix indicate in 1PMT5943B/TR13?
The "TR13" suffix 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 SMT placement and ensures consistent orientation (cathode TAB 1 facing outward) during automated assembly.
Is the 1PMT5943B/TR13 RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1PMT5943B/TR13 conforms to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. Microsemi's Powermite® family uses lead-free terminations and halogen-free molding compound, verified per JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH).
