Product details
Overview
SMAJ4758E3/TR13 from Microsemi (now Microchip Technology) is a 2 W surface-mount silicon Zener diode with a nominal zener voltage of 56 V ±5%, 110 Ω dynamic impedance at 4.5 mA test current, and 80 A peak surge current capability; used for overvoltage protection in DC power rails and voltage regulation in industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ4758E3/TR13 datasheet, SMAJ4758E3/TR13 pinout, SMAJ4758E3/TR13 application, or SMAJ4758E3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (25 °C/W), steady-state power dissipation (2.0 W), and DO-214AC package compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision voltage reference and transient suppressor in unidirectional configurations, leveraging a sharp breakdown knee (ZZK = 2000 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA) and low leakage (<5 µA at 42.6 V). Its thermal design assumes mounting on 4.0 mm² copper pads per terminal, with linear derating above 100 °C to zero power at 150 °C.
The SMAJ4758E3/TR13 complies with JEDEC DO-214AC mechanical standards (with minor dimensional variance noted), features cathode band polarity marking, and supports soldering at 260 °C for 10 seconds per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4758A | Through-hole DO-41 package; identical electrical specs (56 V, ±5%, 2 W) | Requires PCB redesign for through-hole mounting; no SMT compatibility | Select when legacy board repair or prototyping with breadboard-friendly leads is required |
| SMBJ56A | 600 W peak power rating; same 56 V nominal voltage but higher surge capacity (100 A) | Designed for primary-level surge suppression; larger SMB package increases board area | Select when system-level IEC 61000-4-5 compliance requires higher single-pulse energy absorption |
Compared with SMAJ4758E3/TR13, 1N4758A offers identical regulation performance but lacks SMT manufacturability, while SMBJ56A trades compact size for greater surge robustness-making SMAJ4758E3/TR13 optimal for space-constrained secondary protection where 2 W steady-state and 80 A surge meet design margins.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for SMAJ4758E3/TR13?
The SMAJ4758E3/TR13 has a nominal zener voltage of 56 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the absence of a tolerance suffix (e.g., 'C' for ±2% or 'D' for ±1%). This tolerance is measured at thermal equilibrium or 90 seconds after applying DC test current, per the manufacturer's datasheet MSC0284A.
Is SMAJ4758E3/TR13 compatible with automated SMT assembly processes?
Yes, SMAJ4758E3/TR13 uses the DO-214AC (SMAJ) package with a flat handling surface optimized for accurate pick-and-place placement. It supports reflow soldering at 260 °C for 10 seconds and meets MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 solderability requirements, making it fully compatible with high-volume SMT lines.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for SMAJ4758E3/TR13?
The SMAJ4758E3/TR13 has a steady-state power dissipation rating of 2.0 W when mounted on 4.0 mm² copper pads per terminal. Power must be linearly derated above 100 °C ambient, reaching zero at 150 °C, as defined in Note 3 of the datasheet MSC0284A.
How does the knee impedance of SMAJ4758E3/TR13 affect its regulation performance?
The SMAJ4758E3/TR13 has a maximum knee impedance (ZZK) of 2000 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA, indicating a well-defined breakdown transition. This ensures stable low-current regulation and minimizes output voltage drift during light-load conditions in reference or bias applications.
Can SMAJ4758E3/TR13 replace 1N4758A in existing designs?
Yes, SMAJ4758E3/TR13 is electrically equivalent to 1N4758A per the datasheet, sharing identical zener voltage (56 V ±5%), test current (4.5 mA), and power rating (2 W). However, the DO-214AC surface-mount package requires PCB layout changes versus the DO-41 through-hole footprint of 1N4758A.
