Product details
Overview
SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 from Microsemi (now Microchip Technology) is a 2 W surface-mount silicon Zener diode with a nominal zener voltage of 39 V ±5%, 60 Ω dynamic impedance at 6.5 mA test current, and 115 mA peak surge current rating. It serves as a precision voltage regulator or overvoltage clamp in DC power rails and protection circuits for industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 datasheet, SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 pinout, SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 application, or SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include its DO-214AC package compatibility, 2.0 W steady-state power dissipation at 100°C lead temperature, and verified 29.7 V minimum zener voltage under regulation conditions.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage across load variations. Its 39 V nominal zener voltage is specified at 6.5 mA test current (IZT) with 60 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), ensuring predictable regulation behavior under typical bias conditions.
The device supports high-reliability transient suppression with 115 mA peak surge current (IS) capability per 1/120 s half-sine pulse and exhibits low knee impedance (ZZK = 1000 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA), enabling effective clamping near breakdown threshold.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 39 V ±5% at IZT = 6.5 mA - defines regulated output voltage under nominal bias |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 60 Ω at IZT = 6.5 mA - determines voltage deviation under load current changes |
| Peak Surge Current (IS) | 115 mA - maximum single-pulse current it can absorb without failure |
| Steady-State Power (PAV) | 2.0 W at TL = 100°C - thermal limit for continuous operation on 4 mm² copper pads |
| Reverse Current (IR) | 5 µA max at VR = 29.7 V - leakage level below regulation threshold |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +150°C - usable range for automotive and industrial ambient environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4754A | Through-hole DO-41 package; identical electrical specs (39 V, 2 W, ±5%) | Requires PCB redesign for through-hole mounting; unsuitable for high-density SMT assemblies | Select when legacy through-hole assembly or manual prototyping is required |
| BZX84-C39 | SOT-23 package; 39 V ±5%, but rated at only 300 mW and 100 mA surge | Limited to low-power signal-level clamping; cannot replace SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 in power rail protection | Choose only for space-constrained signal conditioning where power dissipation < 0.3 W |
Compared with 1N4754A and BZX84-C39, SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 delivers 2 W power handling and DO-214AC SMT compatibility-critical for industrial power rail clamping where thermal robustness and automated assembly are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for SMAJ4754AE3/TR13?
SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 has a nominal zener voltage of 39 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as confirmed by the "E3" suffix in the part number per Microsemi's naming convention. This tolerance applies under standard test conditions (IZT = 6.5 mA, TA = 25°C). The device does not carry tighter tolerance suffixes like "C" (±2%) or "D" (±1%).
Does SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 meet JEDEC DO-214AC mechanical standards?
Yes, SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 conforms to JEDEC DO-214AC (SMAJ) package dimensions, including length (A = 1.98–2.92 mm), width (G = 4.93–5.48 mm), and height (H = 3.99–4.50 mm). Note that its maximum length exceeds the standard JEDEC callout by 0.010 inches, as explicitly stated in the mechanical notes.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for SMAJ4754AE3/TR13?
SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 is rated for 2.0 W steady-state power dissipation when mounted on 4.0 mm² copper pads per terminal and operated at lead temperature ≤100°C. Power must be derated linearly above 100°C, reaching zero at 150°C junction temperature, per the manufacturer's thermal specification.
Can SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 replace 1N4754A in existing designs?
SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 provides identical electrical performance (39 V ±5%, 2 W, 115 mA surge) as 1N4754A but in a DO-214AC surface-mount package versus DO-41 through-hole. Direct replacement requires PCB layout modification; it is not a pin-compatible drop-in substitute, though functional equivalence is confirmed per datasheet cross-reference.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SMAJ4754AE3/TR13?
SMAJ4754AE3/TR13 specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 5 µA at test voltage VR = 29.7 V, which is 75% of its nominal zener voltage. This value is measured at 25°C ambient and reflects the device's ability to remain effectively non-conductive below its regulation threshold.
