Product details
Overview
SMAJ4752E3/TR13 from Microsemi (now part of Microchip Technology) is a 33 V, 2 W surface-mount Zener diode in DO-214AC (SMA) package, rated for 7.5 mA test current, 45 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 135 mA peak surge current; used for voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in DC power rails and interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ4752E3/TR13 datasheet, SMAJ4752E3/TR13 pinout, SMAJ4752E3/TR13 application, or SMAJ4752E3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (25 °C/W), steady-state power dissipation (2.0 W), and JEDEC DO-214AC mechanical compatibility.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt regulator with sharp breakdown knee (ZZK = 1000 Ω @ IZK = 0.25 mA), designed for stable DC voltage reference and transient suppression in low-power analog and digital supply domains. Its 33 V nominal zener voltage is specified at thermal equilibrium after 90 seconds of DC bias.
The SMAJ4752E3/TR13 complies with JEDEC DO-214AC outline and supports soldering per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026, with cathode band polarity marking and UL94V-0 flame-retardant epoxy encapsulation for surface-mount reliability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 33 V ±5% at IZT = 7.5 mA - defines regulated output voltage under nominal bias |
| Power Dissipation (PAV) | 2.0 W - maximum continuous power at TL ≤ 100 °C on 4.0 mm² copper pads |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 45 Ω @ IZT - indicates voltage stability under small-signal AC variation |
| Peak Surge Current (IS) | 135 mA - withstands ½-sine wave transients (1/120 s duration) without failure |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 5 µA @ VR = 25.1 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby regulation |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 25 °C/W - junction-to-lead thermal path determines derating above 100 °C |
| Operating Temperature | –55 °C to +150 °C - supports industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
Pinout & Package
DO-214AC (SMA) surface-mount package with molded plastic body, flat handling surface for accurate placement, and cathode band marking on one end. Terminals are solderable per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026; max solder temperature is 260 °C for 10 seconds.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry terminal during forward conduction | Connected to lower-potential node in reverse-biased Zener operation |
| Cathode | Current exit terminal during forward conduction; marked by band | Connected to higher-potential node in Zener regulation; defines polarity for correct biasing |
Key Features

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; same 33 V ±5%, 2 W rating, but higher RθJA (65 °C/W) | Requires PCB through-hole layout; unsuitable for high-density SMT designs | Select SMAJ4752E3/TR13 for automated assembly and thermal performance in compact layouts |
| BZX84-C33 | SOT-23 package; 33 V ±5%, 300 mW PAV; ZZT = 95 Ω @ 5 mA | Lower power handling limits use to signal-level clamping, not rail regulation | Choose SMAJ4752E3/TR13 where 2 W dissipation and 135 mA surge capability are required |
Compared with 1N4752A and BZX84-C33, SMAJ4752E3/TR13 delivers superior thermal management (25 °C/W vs. 65 °C/W), higher surge robustness (135 mA vs. ~50 mA), and SMT manufacturability-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability power regulation.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for SMAJ4752E3/TR13?
The SMAJ4752E3/TR13 has a nominal zener voltage of 33 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table. This tolerance applies at thermal equilibrium (90 seconds after DC current application) and is standard for parts without suffix letters; no "C" (2%) or "D" (1%) suffix is present in this variant.
Can SMAJ4752E3/TR13 replace 1N4752A in existing designs?
Yes, SMAJ4752E3/TR13 is electrically equivalent to 1N4752A per the datasheet note, sharing identical zener voltage, test current, and dynamic impedance. However, its DO-214AC package requires PCB footprint revision from DO-41, and its lower thermal resistance (25 °C/W vs. 65 °C/W) improves power handling in thermally constrained layouts.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SMAJ4752E3/TR13?
The SMAJ4752E3/TR13 is rated for a peak surge current (IS) of 135 mA, measured using a ½-sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25 °C ambient. This rating enables reliable transient suppression in automotive load-dump and industrial switching-noise scenarios.
How is polarity indicated on SMAJ4752E3/TR13?
Polarity on SMAJ4752E3/TR13 is indicated by a visible cathode band on the package body, consistent with JEDEC DO-214AC mechanical specifications. During circuit design, the banded end must connect to the higher-potential node to ensure proper reverse-bias operation in Zener regulation mode.
What is the recommended pad layout for SMAJ4752E3/TR13?
The datasheet specifies mounting on 4.0 mm² copper pads per terminal to achieve the rated 2.0 W power dissipation and 25 °C/W thermal resistance. Pad dimensions should follow the DO-214AC outline drawing: terminal width 1.32–1.47 mm (B), length 4.93–5.48 mm (G), and center-to-center pitch ~5.0 mm.
