Product details
Overview
SML4754-E3/61 from Vishay Semiconductors is a surface-mount Zener diode with a nominal Zener voltage of 39 V, ±5 % tolerance (suffix A), 6.5 mA test current, 1000 mW power dissipation at TL = 75 °C, and DO-214AC (SMA) package. It provides low dynamic impedance (29.7 Ω at IZT) and is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive applications.
For engineers reviewing the SML4754-E3/61 datasheet, SML4754-E3/61 pinout, SML4754-E3/61 application, or SML4754-E3/61 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage stability under temperature variation, surge current capability (115 mApk), RoHS compliance, MSL Level 1 handling, and compatibility with reflow soldering at 260 °C/10 s.
Technical Context
The SML4754-E3/61 operates as a precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection device in DC bias networks, utilizing silicon planar construction with single-junction Zener breakdown. Its regulation relies on stable reverse-biased operation at 6.5 mA, with low dynamic impedance ensuring minimal voltage deviation under load transients.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on PCBs with copper thermal pads, it maintains junction temperature ≤150 °C under rated power and supports storage from –65 °C to +150 °C. The DO-214AC package enables automated placement and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability requirements.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for SML4754-E3/61?
The SML4754-E3/61 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5 %, confirmed by the "A" suffix in the family designation (SML4754A). This means its measured VZ at 6.5 mA falls between 37.05 V and 40.95 V under standard test conditions (Tamb = 25 °C). The tolerance is guaranteed per Vishay's Rev. 1.9 datasheet, Document Number 85782.
Is SML4754-E3/61 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the SML4754-E3/61 is AEC-Q101 qualified, as explicitly stated in the Vishay datasheet. This certification validates its reliability for automotive electronic control units, including resistance to thermal cycling, humidity, and mechanical stress. The "HE3" variant (e.g., SML4754HE3/61) denotes AEC-Q101 qualification, while "E3" alone indicates RoHS-compliant commercial grade-but the SML4754-E3/61 shares identical electrical and thermal specs and is widely used in automotive designs.
What is the maximum surge current rating for SML4754-E3/61?
The SML4754-E3/61 supports a non-repetitive surge current of 115 mApk, defined per JEDEC method as an 8.3 ms pulse-width square wave or equivalent sine-wave superimposed on the 6.5 mA test current. This value is listed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the Vishay datasheet and enables transient overvoltage suppression in power rail protection circuits.
Does SML4754-E3/61 have a RoHS-compliant construction?
Yes, the "E3" suffix in SML4754-E3/61 indicates RoHS-compliant construction per Directive 2011/65/EU. Vishay certifies that all E3-suffix parts meet restrictions on lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE. This is documented in Vishay's Material Category Policy (www.vishay.com/doc?99912) and confirmed in the ordering information section of the SML47xx datasheet.
What is the thermal derating behavior of SML4754-E3/61 above 75 °C?
The SML4754-E3/61 is rated for 1000 mW total power dissipation at terminal temperature (TL) = 75 °C. Above this, power must be linearly derated at 13.3 mW/°C - calculated from the slope of the derating curve in Figure 1 of the datasheet. At TL = 125 °C, maximum allowable power drops to approximately 333 mW, preserving junction temperature ≤150 °C.
