Product details
Overview
1PMT5944E3/TR13 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 100 Ω dynamic impedance at 6.0 mA test current and 1500 µA max reverse leakage at 47.1 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in DC power rails of industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5944E3/TR13 datasheet, 1PMT5944E3/TR13 pinout, 1PMT5944E3/TR13 application, or 1PMT5944E3/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, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly using EIA-481 tape-and-reel packaging.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage regulation across varying load currents. Its Powermite® package integrates a full metallic bottom and locking tab that functions as both mechanical anchor and thermal path to PCB copper, enabling efficient heat transfer from junction to TAB 1.
The device exhibits tight voltage regulation with 62 V nominal Zener voltage measured at 6.0 mA (IZT), 100 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 1500 µA maximum reverse leakage (IR) at 47.1 V (VR). Thermal resistance is specified as 30°C/W from junction to TAB 1, supporting reliable operation up to +150°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 62 V ±5% at IZT = 6.0 mA - defines regulated output voltage under nominal bias |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling with thermal derating |
| Dynamic Impedance | 100 Ω at IZT = 6.0 mA - determines voltage deviation under small-signal AC load variations |
| Reverse Leakage | ≤1500 µA at VR = 47.1 V - limits standby current in clamping or reference circuits |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB 1 - quantifies thermal path efficiency to PCB copper pad |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV per Human Body Model - ensures robustness during handling and board assembly |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5365B | Same 62 V nominal Zener voltage but DO-204AL (DO-41) through-hole package; 5 W rating; higher thermal resistance (~65°C/W) | Requires through-hole assembly and larger board area; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select only if legacy through-hole design or higher power margin is required without thermal constraints |
| BZX84-C62 | SOT-23 package; 62 V ±5%; 300 mW power rating; 200 Ω dynamic impedance; no metallic thermal tab | Limited to low-power signal-level clamping; cannot handle sustained 3 W dissipation or high-energy transients | Choose only for space-constrained signal conditioning where power stress is negligible |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5944E3/TR13?
The 1PMT5944E3/TR13 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 62 V, measured at 6.0 mA test current with TAB 1 held at 30°C. Tighter tolerances (±2%, ±1%) are available with suffixes C and D, but the E3 suffix indicates the standard ±5% version. This tolerance directly impacts voltage accuracy in reference and clamping applications.
How is thermal management handled in the 1PMT5944E3/TR13 package?
The 1PMT5944E3/TR13 uses the Powermite® package with TAB 1 as the cathode and primary thermal path. Its 30°C/W junction-to-TAB thermal resistance requires direct soldering of TAB 1 to a copper pour for effective heat dissipation. The full metallic bottom and locking tab enhance conduction, enabling 3.0 W operation at TAB 1 = 60°C without external heatsinks.
Is 1PMT5944E3/TR13 compatible with automated SMT assembly?
Yes, the 1PMT5944E3/TR13 is fully compatible with automated SMT assembly. It ships in EIA-481 compliant tape-and-reel format (7″ reel: 3,000 pcs; 13″ reel: 12,000 pcs) and features a locking tab that prevents rotation during placement. Its surface-mount footprint and mechanical robustness support high-yield reflow processing in industrial production lines.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5944E3/TR13?
The maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5944E3/TR13 is 1500 µA at 47.1 V (VR), measured at TL = 30°C. This parameter defines the upper bound of standby current in clamping configurations and affects power budgeting in low-quiescent designs. Leakage increases with temperature and voltage stress, so system-level validation at worst-case conditions is recommended.
Does 1PMT5944E3/TR13 meet any ESD immunity standards?
Yes, the 1PMT5944E3/TR13 is rated for >16 kV per the Human Body Model (HBM) ESD standard. This high immunity level ensures robust handling during PCB assembly and protects downstream circuitry from electrostatic discharge events in field-deployed equipment. No external ESD protection is needed solely for handling-related stress.
