Product details
Overview
1PMT5950/TR7 from Microsemi is a 110 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 30°C/W thermal resistance junction-to-tab and 83.6 mA maximum Zener current. It delivers stable voltage regulation in compact power supply rails and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5950/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5950/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5950/TR7 application, or 1PMT5950/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 110 V nominal Zener voltage, 300 Ω dynamic impedance at 3.4 mA test current, 4000 µA max reverse leakage at 1 V, ESD rating >16 kV HBM, and DO-216 mechanical outline compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates as a precision voltage reference and clamp device in DC power conditioning paths. Its full metallic bottom eliminates solder flux entrapment, and the integral locking tab serves as both mechanical anchor and thermal path to PCB copper.
The device is characterized at TL = 30°C with Zener voltage measured 20 seconds after DC current application. Dynamic impedance (ZZT) is derived using 60 Hz RMS AC current equal to 10% of IZT, per Micro Note 202 for voltage-current deviation analysis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 110 V ±5% at IZT = 3.4 mA - defines clamping threshold in overvoltage protection |
| Max Power Dissipation | 3.0 W at TAB 1 = 60°C - sets continuous thermal limit with PCB heatsinking |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 300 Ω at IZT = 3.4 mA - determines regulation sensitivity to current variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤4000 µA at VR = 1 V - ensures low standby power loss in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance | 30°C/W junction-to-TAB 1 - enables direct thermal modeling from die to mounting pad |
| ESD Rating | >16 kV per Human Body Model - supports robust handling in unshielded manufacturing environments |
| Package Outline | DO-216 (Powermite®) - surface-mount footprint compatible with EIA-481 tape-and-reel automation |
Pinout & Package
Powermite® package: molded surface-mount case with full metallic bottom and integral heat-sink locking tab; cathode designated by TAB 1; weight ≈0.016 g; mounting position unrestricted.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMF110A (ON Semiconductor) | 110 V, 1.0 W, SOD-123 package, 1000 Ω ZZT, no metallic tab | Limited to lower-power clamping; lacks integrated thermal path for sustained 3 W operation | Select when board space is constrained but thermal load ≤1 W; not suitable for continuous 3 W regulation |
| BZX84-C110 (Diodes Inc.) | 110 V, 300 mW, SOT-23, 500 Ω ZZT, ±5% tolerance, no thermal tab | Designed for signal-level referencing only; cannot sustain 3.0 W dissipation | Use only in low-current bias networks (<5 mA); requires external heatsinking for any power regulation role |
Compared with SMF110A and BZX84-C110, the 1PMT5950/TR7 uniquely supports 3.0 W continuous dissipation via its metallic TAB 1 thermal interface-enabling direct integration into high-reliability power rails without supplemental heatsinks or derating.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5950/TR7?
The 1PMT5950/TR7 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at IZT = 3.4 mA and TL = 30°C. Tighter tolerances (±2% and ±1%) are available with suffixes C and D respectively, but the /TR7 variant uses the standard ±5% grade. Voltage measurement must be performed 20 seconds after DC current application per datasheet note.
How is thermal performance defined for 1PMT5950/TR7?
The 1PMT5950/TR7 specifies a thermal resistance of 30°C/W junction-to-TAB 1. This means that with TAB 1 soldered to a sufficient copper area, the junction temperature rises 30°C above the tab temperature for every watt dissipated. At full 3.0 W rating, TAB 1 must be held at ≤60°C to keep junction temperature within the -55°C to +150°C operating range.
Is 1PMT5950/TR7 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5950/TR7 is qualified for lead-free reflow per J-STD-020. Its molded Powermite® package withstands peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds. The full metallic bottom ensures uniform thermal expansion and eliminates voiding risks associated with flux entrapment-critical for repeatable lead-free assembly yield.
What does the "/TR7" suffix indicate for 1PMT5950/TR7?
The "/TR7" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481 standard, with 3,000 units per 7-inch reel. This format is optimized for high-speed SMT placement equipment and ensures consistent orientation (cathode TAB 1 leading) and mechanical stability during automated handling-distinct from bulk or ammo-pack variants.
Can 1PMT5950/TR7 be used in place of through-hole Zener diodes like 1N5950B?
While both share the same 110 V Zener voltage rating, the 1PMT5950/TR7 is not a drop-in replacement for the axial-lead 1N5950B due to its DO-216 surface-mount footprint and thermal reliance on TAB 1 soldering. It offers superior thermal performance in SMT designs but requires PCB layout adaptation-no through-hole socket compatibility exists.
