Product details
Overview
1PMT5949CE3/TR7 from Microsemi is a 100 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 250 Ω dynamic impedance at 3.7 mA test current and 3100 µA max reverse leakage at 76 V, used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in compact DC power rails.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 application, or 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (30°C/W junction-to-TAB), ESD rating (>16 kV HBM), low reverse leakage, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly per EIA-481 tape-and-reel packaging.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device with cathode designated by TAB 1, requiring no external biasing circuitry. Its full metallic bottom and integral heat sink locking tab enable efficient thermal conduction to the PCB pad while eliminating solder flux entrapment during reflow.
The device is characterized at TL = 30°C with VZ measured 20 seconds after applying DC current; dynamic impedance is derived using 60 Hz RMS AC current equal to 10% of IZT. It supports stable regulation across -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Zener Voltage | 100 V ±5% - precise clamping threshold for 76 V to 100 V operating range |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - enables high-energy transient suppression without heatsink |
| Test Current | 3.7 mA - defines nominal operating point for voltage specification and impedance measurement |
| Dynamic Impedance | 250 Ω at 3.7 mA - determines regulation stiffness under varying load current |
| Reverse Leakage | 3100 µA max at 76 V - sets minimum holding voltage before breakdown onset |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB - quantifies thermal path efficiency to PCB copper |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV HBM - ensures robustness against handling and system-level electrostatic discharge |
Pinout & Package

FAQ
What is the maximum power dissipation rating for the 1PMT5949CE3/TR7?
The 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 is rated for 3.0 W DC power dissipation when TAB 1 is maintained at 60°C. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area for heat spreading and accounts for voltage derating at elevated temperatures per Microsemi's thermal guidelines in MSC0995.PDF.
How is the cathode identified on the 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 package?
The cathode of the 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 is designated by TAB 1-the large metallic tab on the package bottom. This tab serves as both the cathode terminal and primary thermal conduction path to the PCB, and must be electrically connected to the intended reference potential.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the 1PMT5949CE3/TR7?
The 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 has a maximum reverse leakage current of 3100 µA at 76 V (VR = 0.76 × VZ), measured at TL = 30°C. This parameter defines the upper bound of off-state current before entering the regulated breakdown region.
Is the 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 compatible with standard SMT reflow processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles per J-STD-020. Its Powermite® package features a full metallic bottom that prevents solder flux entrapment, ensuring reliable void-free solder joints during automated assembly.
What does the 'C' suffix in 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 indicate?
The 'C' suffix in 1PMT5949CE3/TR7 denotes ±2% zener voltage tolerance, tighter than the standard ±5% version. The 'E3/TR7' indicates EIA-481 compliant tape-and-reel packaging on a 7-inch reel containing 3,000 units.
