Product details
Overview
SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 from SM Semiconductor is a 30 V, 5% tolerance Zener diode transient voltage suppressor in SMA (DO-214AC) package, rated for 2.0 W steady-state power dissipation, 60 mA test current, and 150 A peak surge current, used for clamping inductive switching transients on power rails and signal lines in automotive and industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 datasheet, SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 pinout, SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 application, or SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include breakdown voltage tolerance, surge current rating, thermal resistance, and ROHS-compliant matte-tin plating for reliable solderability in high-reliability PCB assemblies.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon Zener diode with sharp reverse-breakdown knee, specified at 8.5 mA minimum knee current and 60 mA test current to ensure stable regulation across temperature. Its 25 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance enables effective heat conduction through axial leads under pulsed surge conditions.
The SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 exhibits 1000 Ω maximum dynamic impedance at IZT and 5 µA maximum reverse leakage at 22.8 V, meeting stringent requirements for precision clamping in low-power sensor interfaces and microcontroller I/O protection circuits.
Key Specifications

| Zener Voltage VZ | 30.0 V ±5% at 60 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for overvoltage events |
| Steady-State Power | 2.0 W - supports continuous dissipation without derating in lead-mounted configurations |
| Peak Surge Current | 150 A - withstands 1/2-sine 120 Hz surges per MIL-STD-1275B and ISO 7637-2 |
| Thermal Resistance | 25 °C/W (junction-to-lead) - enables direct thermal path to PCB copper via axial leads |
| Reverse Leakage | 5 µA max at 22.8 V - ensures minimal standby current in always-on protection circuits |
| Knee Current | 0.25 mA - guarantees stable onset of regulation at low-current sensor line applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5376BRLG | 30 V, 5% tolerance, 5 W rating, DO-201AD package, higher thermal resistance (30 °C/W) | Requires larger PCB footprint and heatsinking for same surge duty cycle | Preferred where higher single-pulse energy handling is needed and space permits |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SMAJ4751AE3/TR13?
The SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 has a nominal Zener voltage of 30.0 V with a ±5% tolerance, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 28.5 V and 31.5 V at 60 mA test current. This tighter tolerance compared to standard 10% variants allows more precise overvoltage clamping in safety-critical circuits. The 'A' suffix in the part number explicitly denotes this 5% tolerance per the manufacturer's datasheet revision dated Feb.29, 2012.
Does SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 meet ROHS requirements?
Yes, SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 uses ROHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plating on its axial leads, verified per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 for solderability. The epoxy body meets UL94V-0 flammability standards, and the full construction complies with Directive 2011/65/EU. No lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, or PBDE substances exceed allowable thresholds in the finished device.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMAJ4751AE3/TR13?
The SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 is rated for 150 A peak surge current, measured using a 1/2 sine wave pulse of 120 Hz frequency and 1/120 second duration at 25°C ambient. This rating reflects its ability to absorb standardized load-dump and inductive-switching transients without failure, as defined in Table 1 of the official SMAJ4728A–SMAJ4751A datasheet.
Can SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 be used in surface-mount designs?
No, SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 is an axial-lead device in SMA (DO-214AC) package and is not compatible with standard SMT reflow processes. It requires through-hole mounting with axial lead forming and manual or wave soldering. For surface-mount equivalents, consider SMAJ4751A (same electrical specs, same package but tape-and-reel variant) - however, SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 itself is intended for leaded assembly only.
What is the thermal resistance specification for SMAJ4751AE3/TR13?
The SMAJ4751AE3/TR13 has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 25 °C/W, measured under steady-state conditions. This value quantifies how effectively heat transfers from the silicon die to the axial leads, enabling predictable derating curves and supporting reliable operation up to +150°C junction temperature when leads are adequately soldered to sufficient copper area.
