Product details
Overview
SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 from Microsemi (now Microchip Technology) is a 33 V, 5% tolerance, 2 W surface-mount Zener diode in DO-214AC (SMA) package, rated for 135 mA peak surge current and 54 mA maximum regulator current at 100°C, used for voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in DC power rails and interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 datasheet, SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 pinout, SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 application, or SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance, surge current capability, thermal resistance (25°C/W), and DO-214AC mounting compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and line conditions. It features a sharp knee impedance (ZZK = 1000 Ω @ IZK = 0.25 mA) and low dynamic impedance (ZZT = 45 Ω @ IZT = 7.5 mA), ensuring precise regulation in feedback loops and clamp circuits.
Designed for surface-mount use, it complies with MIL-STD-750 solderability standards and supports UL94V-0 flame-retardant PCB mounting. Polarity is marked by a cathode band, and maximum solder temperature is 260°C for 10 seconds.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 33 V ±5% - defines clamping threshold for overvoltage protection and reference accuracy |
| Power Dissipation (PAV) | 2.0 W - maximum steady-state power at 100°C case temperature with 4.0 mm² copper pads |
| Test Current (IZT) | 7.5 mA - standard bias point for measuring VZ and dynamic impedance |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 45 Ω @ 7.5 mA - indicates regulation stiffness; lower values improve load regulation |
| Peak Surge Current (IS) | 135 mA - ½-sine wave, 1/120 sec pulse rating for transient suppression |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 5 µA @ 25.1 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance clamp applications |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 25°C/W - junction-to-lead thermal path; critical for derating above 100°C |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4752A | Through-hole DO-41 package; identical 33 V ±5%, 1 W rating; lower surge current (75 mA) | Requires PCB through-hole layout; unsuitable for high-density SMT designs | Select when retrofitting legacy boards or where manual assembly is preferred |
| BZX84-C33 | SOT-23 package; same 33 V ±5%; lower power (300 mW); higher ZZT (90 Ω) | Limited to low-current bias/reference roles; not rated for surge suppression | Select only for space-constrained, low-power reference applications-not for protection |
Compared with 1N4752A and BZX84-C33, SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 uniquely combines SMT compatibility, 2 W dissipation, and 135 mA surge capability-making it the only option among the three suitable for industrial-grade transient suppression in compact layouts.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of SMAJ4752AE3/TR13?
SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 has a nominal Zener voltage of 33 V with a ±5% tolerance, as confirmed by the "E3" suffix per manufacturer documentation. This means the actual measured VZ falls between 31.35 V and 34.65 V at IZT = 7.5 mA and 25°C ambient. The tolerance is tighter than standard 10% variants (no suffix) and looser than 2% (C) or 1% (D) versions in the same family.
Can SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 replace 1N4752A in existing designs?
Yes, SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 is electrically equivalent to 1N4752A per datasheet note, but requires PCB layout changes due to its DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package versus DO-41 through-hole. SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 offers higher power (2 W vs. 1 W) and surge rating (135 mA vs. 75 mA), making it suitable for upgraded reliability-but mechanical adaptation is mandatory.
What is the maximum operating temperature for SMAJ4752AE3/TR13?
SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 has a specified operating and storage temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Its power dissipation must be linearly derated above 100°C case temperature, reaching zero watt capability at 150°C. Thermal resistance is 25°C/W junction-to-lead, so proper copper pad design (4.0 mm² per terminal) is essential to maintain safe junction temperatures.
How is polarity identified on SMAJ4752AE3/TR13?
Polarity on SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 is indicated by a visible cathode band near one end of the DO-214AC package body. During Zener operation, the cathode connects to the higher-potential node (e.g., protected rail), and the anode connects to ground or lower potential. This marking aligns with JEDEC DO-214AC mechanical standards and is verified in the device's dimensional drawing and packaging documentation.
Is SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
SMAJ4752AE3/TR13 is RoHS compliant per Microchip's product change notices and material declarations. The "E3" suffix denotes lead-free termination and compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. Halogen content is not explicitly stated in the provided datasheet, but Microchip's standard SMAJ series uses halogen-free molding compounds consistent with IPC-4101D/126 requirements.
