Product details
Overview
1PMT5944CE3/TR7 from Microsemi is a 62 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 dynamic impedance of 100 Ω at 6.0 mA test current and reverse leakage ≤1 µA at 47.1 V, used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in compact DC power rails.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 application, or 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (30°C/W junction-to-TAB), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), low knee impedance (≤1500 Ω), and compatibility with EIA-481 tape-and-reel automated assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device, leveraging silicon PN-junction avalanche breakdown to maintain stable 62 V across its terminals under reverse bias. Its Powermite® package integrates a full metallic bottom and locking tab to enhance thermal conduction and mechanical stability during reflow soldering.
The device exhibits tight regulation at IZT = 6.0 mA, with ZZT = 100 Ω and ZZK = 1500 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA, enabling reliable operation in low-current sensing and clamping circuits where low knee impedance and minimal reverse leakage (<1 µA at 47.1 V) are critical.
Key Specifications

| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 62 V ±5% at IZT = 6.0 mA - defines regulated output voltage with production tolerance band |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - sets maximum continuous thermal load under standard mounting conditions |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 100 Ω at IZT = 6.0 mA - determines voltage variation under small-signal AC load changes |
| Knee Impedance (ZZK) | 1500 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA - indicates regulation onset sharpness for low-current biasing |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤1 µA at VR = 47.1 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance clamp applications |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB - quantifies temperature rise per watt dissipated into PCB copper pad |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5944B | Same 62 V nominal Zener voltage, but DO-41 through-hole package; higher thermal resistance (~50°C/W) | Requires manual or wave soldering; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 for automated assembly and improved thermal performance in space-constrained designs |
| SMBJ64A | 64 V standoff voltage, 600 W peak pulse power, TVS diode - not a Zener regulator | Designed for transient suppression only; lacks tight DC regulation and low leakage | Choose 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 when stable DC reference or precision clamping is required, not just surge protection |
Compared with 1N5944B and SMBJ64A, the 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 delivers superior thermal management (30°C/W vs. ~50°C/W), true Zener regulation (not transient-only), and automated SMT compatibility - making it optimal for compact, thermally demanding DC reference and clamping roles.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5944CE3/TR7?
The 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 62 V, measured at IZT = 6.0 mA with TAB 1 held at 30°C. Tighter tolerances (±2%, ±1%) are available with suffixes C and D, but the CE3/TR7 variant specifies ±5%. This tolerance directly impacts regulation accuracy in precision reference applications.
How is thermal management handled in the 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 package?
The 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 uses the Powermite® package with a full metallic bottom and integral locking tab that serves as the primary thermal path. Its junction-to-TAB thermal resistance is 30°C/W, meaning proper soldering of TAB 1 to a copper pour is essential to achieve the rated 3.0 W power dissipation at TAB 1 = 60°C.
Is 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 suitable for automated SMT assembly?
Yes, the 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 is specifically designed for automated insertion and reflow soldering. It complies with EIA-481 tape-and-reel packaging standards (7″ reel: 3,000 pcs), features a locking tab for mechanical stability, and has a full metallic bottom to prevent flux entrapment - all verified in Microsemi's MSC0995 documentation.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5944CE3/TR7?
The maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 is 1 µA at VR = 47.1 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This low leakage supports high-impedance bias networks and minimizes standby power loss in always-on protection circuits.
Does 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 have ESD protection built-in?
Yes, the 1PMT5944CE3/TR7 has an ESD rating exceeding 16 kV per the Human Body Model (HBM), as confirmed in the FEATURES section of the MSC0995 datasheet. This enables robust handling during board assembly without requiring additional ESD safeguards in standard manufacturing environments.
