Product details
Overview
SML4752HE3_A/I from Vishay Semiconductors is a surface-mount Zener diode with nominal zener voltage of 33 V, ±5 % tolerance (suffix A), 7.5 mA test current, and 1000 mW power dissipation at TL = 75 °C. It features low dynamic impedance (25.1 Ω at IZT), low regulation factor, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability in voltage regulation and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SML4752HE3_A/I datasheet, SML4752HE3_A/I pinout, SML4752HE3_A/I application, or SML4752HE3_A/I equivalent, this part serves as a precision 33 V reference in power supply feedback loops, ESD-protected I/O clamping, and automotive sensor biasing where stable reverse breakdown and high surge current capability (135 mApk) are required.
Technical Context
This device operates as a single-element, unidirectional Zener diode in the SMA (DO-214AC) package, optimized for surface-mount applications requiring stable reverse-biased voltage regulation. Its electrical behavior is defined by tightly controlled VZ at IZT = 7.5 mA, low ZZK = 45 Ω at IZT2, and IR ≤ 0.25 μA at VR = 25.1 V.
The SML4752HE3_A/I is rated for junction temperatures up to 150 °C and storage from –65 °C to +150 °C, with MSL level 1 moisture sensitivity and UL 94 V-0 flammability compliance. It supports high-temperature soldering (260 °C/10 s) and delivers 135 mApk non-repetitive surge current per JEDEC® method.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of SML4752HE3_A/I?
The SML4752HE3_A/I has a zener voltage tolerance of ±5 %, indicated by the "A" suffix in the part number. This means its nominal 33 V breakdown voltage is guaranteed between 31.35 V and 34.65 V at IZT = 7.5 mA and Tamb = 25 °C. This tighter tolerance supports precision regulation without external trimming in SML4752HE3_A/I-based feedback networks.
Is SML4752HE3_A/I qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the SML4752HE3_A/I is AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed by Vishay's documentation for the SML47xxHE3_X series (where "X" denotes revision code). This qualification covers stress tests including HTGB, TCT, and ESD, enabling use in engine control, body electronics, and ADAS modules where SML4752HE3_A/I serves as a regulated bias or clamp element.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SML4752HE3_A/I?
The SML4752HE3_A/I supports a non-repetitive surge current of 135 mApk, measured using an 8.3 ms pulse width square wave per JEDEC® methodology. This rating applies at Tamb = 25 °C and ensures reliable transient suppression in power rails protected by SML4752HE3_A/I without parametric shift or failure.
What package type does SML4752HE3_A/I use?
The SML4752HE3_A/I uses the SMA (DO-214AC) surface-mount package - a standardized plastic case with cathode band marking, 64 mg mass, and dimensions of 4.93 mm × 5.28 mm × 2.29 mm. This package supports automated placement and reflow soldering at 260 °C/10 s, as verified in SML4752HE3_A/I's mechanical data sheet.
How does the dynamic impedance of SML4752HE3_A/I affect regulation performance?
The SML4752HE3_A/I exhibits a dynamic impedance (ZZ) of 25.1 Ω at IZT = 7.5 mA, meaning a 1 mA change in zener current causes ~25 mV output variation. This low value ensures minimal VZ drift under load transients - a key advantage in SML4752HE3_A/I applications like sensor excitation where supply stability directly impacts measurement accuracy.
