Product details
Overview
SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 from Microsemi (now Microchip) is a 2 W surface-mount Zener diode with a nominal zener voltage of 75 V ±2%, 3.3 mA test current, 175 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 2000 mA peak surge current capability; used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in DC power rails and interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 datasheet, SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 pinout, SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 application, or SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 equivalent, key selection criteria include ±2% voltage tolerance, DO-214AC package thermal resistance (25°C/W), cathode-band polarity marking, and compliance with MIL-STD-750 solderability standards.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its 75 V nominal zener voltage is specified at 3.3 mA test current with 175 Ω dynamic impedance, ensuring low regulation error across operating current range.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on FR-4 PCBs with 4.0 mm² copper pads per terminal, it supports steady-state power dissipation of 2.0 W at TL ≤ 100°C and derates linearly to zero at 150°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 75 V ±2% at 3.3 mA - enables precise clamping in 72–78 V supply monitoring circuits |
| Power Dissipation (PAV) | 2.0 W - requires 4.0 mm² copper pad per terminal for thermal management |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 175 Ω @ 3.3 mA - limits regulation error to <1.2 V across 1–10 mA load variation |
| Peak Surge Current (IS) | 2000 mA - withstands 8/20 µs transient surges up to 150 W (per IEC 61000-4-5) |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 5 µA @ 60 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Temp Range | −55°C to +150°C - supports operation in automotive engine control and industrial motor drive environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4761C | Same 75 V ±2%, 2 W rating, but in DO-41 through-hole package | Requires PCB rework for through-hole mounting; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select when legacy through-hole design or manual prototyping is required |
| MMSZ5261B | 75 V ±5%, 500 mW rating, SOD-123 package; lower surge capacity (500 mA) | Insufficient for >1 W transient suppression; limited to low-power signal-level clamping | Select only for space-constrained, low-energy bias networks where 2 W rating is unnecessary |
Compared with 1N4761C and MMSZ5261B, SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 delivers superior thermal performance (25°C/W vs. ~60°C/W for DO-41), higher surge immunity (2000 mA vs. 1500 mA), and SMT manufacturability-making it optimal for production-grade 75 V regulation in automotive and industrial systems.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for SMAJ4761CE3/TR13?
The SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 has a nominal zener voltage of 75 V with a ±2% tolerance, indicated by the 'C' suffix per manufacturer documentation. This tighter tolerance enables accurate voltage clamping in feedback networks where regulation stability is critical, such as in switched-mode power supply output sensing. The SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 achieves this specification at 3.3 mA test current and 25°C ambient temperature.
Does SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 meet UL94V-0 flammability requirements?
Yes, SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 uses flame-retardant epoxy conforming to UL94V-0, as stated in the mechanical data section of its official datasheet. This certification ensures safe operation in enclosed electronic assemblies where fire propagation risk must be minimized, including industrial control cabinets and medical power supplies. The SMAJ4761CE3/TR13's UL94V-0 compliance is verified per standardized vertical burning tests.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for SMAJ4761CE3/TR13?
The SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 is rated for 2.0 W steady-state power dissipation at lead temperature ≤100°C, with linear derating to zero at 150°C junction temperature. This rating assumes mounting on 4.0 mm² copper pads per terminal per datasheet Note 2 and 3. Exceeding these thermal conditions risks parametric shift or catastrophic failure. The SMAJ4761CE3/TR13's thermal resistance is 25°C/W junction-to-lead.
Is SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 compatible with automated SMT assembly processes?
Yes, SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 features a DO-214AC (SMAJ) package with a flat handling surface optimized for accurate pick-and-place placement, and is supplied on tape-and-reel (TR13). It meets MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 solderability requirements and supports reflow profiles up to 260°C for 10 seconds. The SMAJ4761CE3/TR13's mechanical dimensions and polarity marking (cathode band) are fully compatible with Class III SMT lines.
What is the peak surge current rating for SMAJ4761CE3/TR13?
The SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 has a peak surge current rating of 2000 mA, measured using a ½ sine wave pulse of 1/120 second duration at 25°C ambient. This rating reflects its ability to absorb transient energy from sources like ESD, inductive switching, or load dump-critical in automotive and industrial applications. The SMAJ4761CE3/TR13 maintains parameter integrity after such events when operated within datasheet limits.
