Product details
Overview
1PMT5948E3/TR7 from Microsemi is a 91 V, ±5% tolerance surface-mount Zener diode in the Powermite® package, rated for 3.0 W DC power dissipation at TAB 1 temperature of 60°C, with dynamic impedance of 200 Ω at 4.1 mA test current and reverse leakage ≤3000 µA at 69.2 V, used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in compact DC power rails.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5948E3/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5948E3/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5948E3/TR7 application, or 1PMT5948E3/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (30°C/W junction-to-TAB), ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM), low knee impedance, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly on high-density PCBs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a voltage-reference and clamping element in regulated power supplies and transient suppression circuits. Its Powermite® package features a full metallic bottom and integral heat-sink locking tab, enabling direct thermal conduction to the PCB copper pour while eliminating solder flux entrapment during reflow.
The 1PMT5948E3/TR7 exhibits a nominal Zener voltage of 91 V at 4.1 mA (IZT), with tight knee characteristics (IZK = 0.25 mA, ZZK = 3000 Ω) and low reverse leakage (≤3000 µA at VR = 69.2 V), supporting stable regulation under light-load and standby conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 91 V ±5% at IZT = 4.1 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection |

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 91 V nominal Zener voltage but DO-201AD package; higher thermal resistance (50°C/W); no metallic bottom or locking tab | Limited to lower-power or non-automated assembly; unsuitable for high-reliability thermal cycling environments | Select only when board space permits larger package and thermal performance is secondary |
| SMBJ91A | TVS diode (not Zener); 91 V breakdown at 1 mA; 600 W peak pulse power; higher leakage (5 µA typical at 73.7 V) | Designed for surge suppression, not precision regulation; lacks stable DC Zener characteristic | Use only for transient-only protection; not interchangeable for voltage reference or bias functions |
Compared with 1N5365B and SMBJ91A, the 1PMT5948E3/TR7 uniquely combines 3 W DC power handling, 30°C/W thermal resistance, and automated-assembly readiness in a miniature Powermite® package-making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding Zener regulation tasks where long-term DC stability matters.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1PMT5948E3/TR7?
The 1PMT5948E3/TR7 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 91 V, measured at 4.1 mA test current and TAB 1 temperature of 30°C. Tighter tolerances of ±2% (suffix C) and ±1% (suffix D) are available upon request, but the base 1PMT5948E3/TR7 part uses the ±5% specification per Microsemi MSC0995 Rev F.
How is thermal management implemented in the 1PMT5948E3/TR7 package?
The 1PMT5948E3/TR7 uses the Powermite® package with a full metallic bottom and integral heat-sink locking tab (TAB 1). This design achieves 30°C/W junction-to-TAB thermal resistance, requiring direct soldering of TAB 1 to a large PCB copper pour for effective heat dissipation during 3.0 W continuous operation.
Is the 1PMT5948E3/TR7 compatible with standard SMT reflow processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5948E3/TR7 is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles per J-STD-020. Its molded Powermite® package and metallic bottom eliminate solder flux entrapment, and its -55°C to +150°C junction/storage temperature range supports robust thermal cycling in automated assembly lines.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for the 1PMT5948E3/TR7?
The 1PMT5948E3/TR7 has a maximum reverse leakage current of 3000 µA at a reverse voltage of 69.2 V, measured at TL = 30°C. This value is specified in the Microsemi MSC0995 datasheet and reflects worst-case leakage under rated clamping conditions.
Does the 1PMT5948E3/TR7 have ESD protection built-in?
Yes, the 1PMT5948E3/TR7 is rated for >16 kV per the Human Body Model (HBM), as confirmed in the Microsemi MSC0995 datasheet. This intrinsic ESD robustness eliminates the need for additional external protection in many interface and bias applications.
