Product details
Overview
1PMT5949C/TR7 from Microsemi is a 100 V, ±1% 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. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in industrial power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5949C/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5949C/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5949C/TR7 application, or 1PMT5949C/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its tight 1% voltage tolerance, ESD rating >16 kV HBM, full metallic bottom for flux-free soldering, thermal resistance of 30°C/W (junction-to-TAB1), and compatibility with EIA-481 tape-and-reel automated assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with a nominal zener voltage of 100 V at 3.7 mA (IZT), exhibiting 250 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) and 3100 µA maximum reverse leakage (IR) at 76 V (VR). Its junction-to-TAB1 thermal resistance is 30°C/W, enabling stable regulation under sustained 3.0 W power dissipation when mounted on a thermally adequate PCB pad.
The Powermite® package features a full metallic bottom and integral locking tab acting as a heat sink, supporting automatic insertion and eliminating solder flux entrapment. Cathode is designated by TAB 1, and mechanical mounting orientation is unrestricted per specification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 100 V ±1% at IZT = 3.7 mA - enables precise voltage clamping or reference in high-voltage feedback networks |
| Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - supports robust operation in compact industrial power stages without forced cooling |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 250 Ω at IZT - ensures low voltage deviation under small-signal current variations in regulation circuits |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤3100 µA at VR = 76 V - maintains low standby loss in high-impedance bias or protection paths |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W (junction-to-TAB1) - allows accurate thermal design when TAB 1 is connected to copper pour or heatsink |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV per HBM - provides inherent handling robustness during SMT assembly and field operation |
Pinout & Package
Package: Powermite® surface-mount molded package with full metallic bottom and integral cathode locking tab (TAB 1). Cathode is electrically and thermally connected to TAB 1; anode is the opposing terminal. Mounting orientation is unrestricted.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| TAB 1 | Cathode | Primary heat path and electrical cathode connection; must be soldered to thermal pad for rated 3.0 W operation |
| Opposing Terminal | Anode | Standard anode connection; no thermal function; routed as signal or bias node in circuit |
Key Features

Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Feedback | Overvoltage Protection Clamp |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Regulating output voltage in isolated flyback or forward converters where primary-side sensing requires stable 100 V reference. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision Zener reference diode providing error amplifier input voltage in TL431-based or discrete op-amp feedback networks. Use Value: ±1% tolerance and low ZZT ensure <±0.5 V output variation across line/load/temperature in 48–72 VDC input systems. | Use Scenario: Clamping transient overvoltage on 85–100 V DC bus lines in motor drives or telecom power systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt overvoltage protector diverting surge current to ground before downstream MOSFETs or controllers are damaged. Use Value: 3.0 W power rating and 30°C/W thermal resistance allow safe absorption of 100 V × 30 mA surges for >100 ms without derating. |
| High-Voltage Bias Network | ESD-Sensitive Interface Protection |
Use Scenario: Generating stable bias voltage for gate drivers or optocouplers in high-side switch circuits operating near 100 V rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-leakage (≤3100 µA) Zener source supplying regulated bias to isolated driver ICs. Use Value: Tight 1% tolerance ensures consistent gate drive margin across temperature, preventing unintended turn-on in SiC/GaN half-bridges. | Use Scenario: Protecting analog sensor inputs or communication lines exposed to >15 kV ESD events in factory automation equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary shunt ESD clamp with >16 kV HBM rating, placed upstream of TVS arrays or interface ICs. Use Value: Metallic-bottom construction improves grounding integrity, while 100 V standoff prevents false triggering during normal 24/48 V operation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5375B | Same 100 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, DO-204AL package, 5 W rating but higher thermal resistance (50°C/W) | Requires larger PCB pad or heatsinking for equivalent 3 W operation; not surface-mount optimized | Select only if through-hole assembly or higher power headroom is required |
| BZX85C100 | 100 V, ±5%, DO-41 package, 1.3 W rating, no metallic bottom or locking tab | Limited to low-power biasing; unsuitable for 3 W clamping or automated SMT | Use only in cost-sensitive, low-power legacy designs with manual assembly |
Compared with 1N5375B and BZX85C100, the 1PMT5949C/TR7 delivers superior thermal performance (30°C/W vs. ≥50°C/W), SMT process compatibility, and tighter 1% tolerance-making it the preferred choice for modern industrial power modules requiring repeatable 100 V regulation under continuous load.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of the 1PMT5949C/TR7?
The 1PMT5949C/TR7 has a nominal zener voltage of 100 V with a ±1% tolerance, indicated by the "C" suffix in the part number. This tight tolerance is verified at IZT = 3.7 mA and TAB 1 temperature of 30°C, making it suitable for precision voltage reference applications where standard ±5% Zeners would introduce unacceptable regulation error.
How is thermal management handled for the 1PMT5949C/TR7 in high-power operation?
The 1PMT5949C/TR7 achieves 3.0 W power dissipation capability via its Powermite® package, which uses TAB 1 as both cathode and thermal path. With a specified junction-to-TAB1 thermal resistance of 30°C/W, effective thermal management requires soldering TAB 1 to a minimum 100 mm² copper pad (2 oz Cu) to maintain junction temperature within -55°C to +150°C limits during continuous operation.
Is the 1PMT5949C/TR7 compatible with automated SMT assembly processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5949C/TR7 is fully compatible with automated SMT assembly. It is supplied in EIA-481 tape-and-reel format (3,000 units per 7-inch reel), features a unique locking tab that stabilizes placement, and has a full metallic bottom that prevents solder flux entrapment-reducing defects and improving first-pass yield in high-volume manufacturing.
What does the "TR7" suffix indicate in 1PMT5949C/TR7?
The "TR7" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481 standard on a 7-inch reel containing 3,000 units. This distinguishes it from bulk or ammo-pack variants and confirms compatibility with standard pick-and-place equipment used in industrial electronics manufacturing.
Can the 1PMT5949C/TR7 replace older through-hole Zener diodes like 1N5375B in existing designs?
The 1PMT5949C/TR7 can serve as a functional replacement for 1N5375B in many applications due to matching 100 V nominal voltage, but it is not a drop-in mechanical replacement. Its Powermite® footprint differs from DO-204AL, requiring PCB layout revision. However, its lower thermal resistance (30°C/W vs. 50°C/W) and SMT compatibility often justify redesign for improved reliability and manufacturability.
