Product details
Overview
1PMT5953B/TR7 from Microsemi is a 150 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 600 Ω dynamic impedance at 2.5 mA test current and 16.5 mA maximum Zener current. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in high-reliability power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT5953B/TR7 datasheet, 1PMT5953B/TR7 pinout, 1PMT5953B/TR7 application, or 1PMT5953B/TR7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150 V nominal Zener voltage, 3.0 W thermal capability with metallic-tab heat sinking, low reverse leakage (≤1 µA at 114 V), ESD rating >16 kV HBM, and DO-216 mechanical outline compatibility with automated SMT placement.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode with tightly controlled voltage regulation across its specified test current range. Its Powermite® package integrates a full metallic bottom and locking tab to enhance thermal conduction from junction to PCB pad, enabling stable 3.0 W operation without external heatsinking when mounted per recommended pad layout.
The device exhibits low knee impedance (≤600 Ω at IZT = 2.5 mA) and maintains ≤1 µA reverse leakage up to 114 V, supporting accurate voltage clamping in high-impedance sensing nodes. Its ESD robustness (>16 kV HBM) and -55°C to +150°C junction temperature range suit industrial and automotive power management circuits.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1PMT5953B/TR7?
The 1PMT5953B/TR7 has a standard Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 150 V nominal, measured at 2.5 mA test current with TAB 1 held at 30°C. Tighter tolerances of ±2% (suffix C) and ±1% (suffix D) are available upon request. This tolerance directly impacts voltage regulation accuracy in feedback and reference circuits using the 1PMT5953B/TR7.
How is thermal performance managed in the 1PMT5953B/TR7 package?
The 1PMT5953B/TR7 uses Microsemi's Powermite® package with a full metallic bottom and integral locking tab that acts as a heat sink. Its junction-to-TAB1 thermal resistance is 30°C/W, enabling 3.0 W dissipation when TAB 1 is thermally anchored to sufficient copper area. This design eliminates flux entrapment and ensures repeatable thermal performance in the 1PMT5953B/TR7.
Can the 1PMT5953B/TR7 be used in automotive applications?
Yes, the 1PMT5953B/TR7 is qualified for automotive use with a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and >16 kV HBM ESD rating. Its 3.0 W power handling and 150 V clamping make it suitable for load-dump protection and battery rail monitoring in 24 V systems. The 1PMT5953B/TR7 meets AEC-Q200 stress test requirements when applied within its rated electrical limits.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1PMT5953B/TR7?
The 1PMT5953B/TR7 specifies a maximum reverse leakage current of 1 µA at 114 V reverse voltage (76% of nominal VZ). This low leakage supports high-impedance sensing and precision reference applications where current draw must remain below 1 µA. The value is confirmed at TL = 30°C and applies directly to the 1PMT5953B/TR7 in stable operating conditions.
Is the 1PMT5953B/TR7 compatible with standard SMT assembly processes?
Yes, the 1PMT5953B/TR7 is supplied in EIA-481 tape-and-reel format (3,000 pieces per 7-inch reel) and features a DO-216 outline optimized for automated pick-and-place. Its Powermite® package includes design features like the locking tab and flat metallic bottom to ensure consistent placement and solder joint integrity.
