Product details
Overview
SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 from SM Semiconductor is a 24.0 V, 5% tolerance Zener diode transient voltage suppressor in SMA (DO-214AC) package, rated for 2.0 W steady-state power dissipation, 10.5 mA test current, and 25.0 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, used for overvoltage protection on low-voltage signal lines in automotive sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 datasheet, SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 pinout, SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 application, or SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include breakdown voltage tolerance, surge current capability (190 A), thermal resistance (25 °C/W), and ROHS-compliant matte-tin plating for reliable solderability in high-reliability PCB assemblies.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for transient suppression, with a sharp knee at 1.0 mA (IZK) and specified reverse leakage ≤5 µA at 18.2 V (VR). Its 25 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance enables stable regulation under pulsed surge conditions when mounted to adequate copper area.
The SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 exhibits 25.0 Ω dynamic impedance at 10.5 mA test current and maintains regulation across -65 °C to +150 °C operating temperature range, supporting use in environments where thermal cycling and voltage transients co-occur-such as automotive body control modules and industrial I/O protection circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 24.0 V ±5% at 10.5 mA - defines clamping threshold for overvoltage events in 24 V rail protection |
| Power Dissipation PM(AV) | 2.0 W - maximum continuous DC power handling without heat sinking |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 25.0 Ω at IZT = 10.5 mA - determines voltage rise under transient current, critical for precision clamping |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener-based transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5357BRLG | Same 24 V nominal, but 10% tolerance (vs. 5%), higher ZZT = 35 Ω, TO-220 package | Requires through-hole mounting and larger board area; less suitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select when legacy TO-220 footprint is fixed and tighter voltage tolerance is not required |
| SZ1SMA4749HE3/TR13 | Identical 24 V ±5%, same SMA package, but manufactured by Vishay; ZZT = 25 Ω, IZSM = 190 A confirmed | No functional or layout change needed; fully interchangeable in new designs and second-source programs | Preferred for dual-sourcing strategies requiring identical electrical and mechanical specifications |
Compared with SMAJ4749AE3/TR13, the 1N5357BRLG trades tighter voltage control for through-hole robustness, while SZ1SMA4749HE3/TR13 offers identical performance in a validated second-source configuration-enabling supply chain resilience without design revision.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SMAJ4749AE3/TR13?
The SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 has a nominal Zener voltage of 24.0 V with a ±5% tolerance, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls within 22.8 V to 25.2 V at the specified 10.5 mA test current. This tighter tolerance compared to standard 10% Zener diodes ensures more predictable clamping behavior in safety-critical 24 V system protection circuits, and is explicitly defined in the SM Semiconductor datasheet for the SMAJ4749A variant.
Does SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 meet automotive qualification standards?
The SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 is built to AEC-Q101 stress test requirements for discrete semiconductors, as confirmed by SM Semiconductor's product family documentation and qualification reports for the SMAJ47xxA series. Its -65 °C to +150 °C operating temperature range, 190 A surge rating, and ROHS-compliant matte-tin plating align with automotive under-hood and body-control module deployment needs, though individual lot certification must be verified per order.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMAJ4749AE3/TR13?
The SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 is rated for a peak non-repetitive surge current (IZSM) of 190 A, measured using a 1/2 sine wave pulse with 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This value is specified in Table 1 of the official SM Semiconductor datasheet and reflects capability to withstand ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a load-dump transients in 24 V vehicle systems when properly mounted to thermal copper.
Is SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 features ROHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plating on terminals, qualified per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 for solderability, and rated for peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C. Its thermosetting epoxy case (UL94V-0) remains stable during standard lead-free reflow profiles, making it suitable for modern SMT assembly lines without modification to thermal profiles.
How does the thermal resistance of SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 affect its power handling?
The SMAJ4749AE3/TR13 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 25 °C/W, meaning each watt of dissipated power raises the junction temperature by 25 °C above the lead temperature. At 2.0 W steady-state dissipation, this results in a 50 °C rise-so mounting leads to ≥1 cm² of 1 oz copper is essential to maintain junction temperature below 150 °C in 100 °C ambient, per the device's absolute maximum ratings.
