Product details
Overview
1N3154UR-1/TR from Microsemi is a temperature-compensated 8.4 V Zener reference diode in DO-7 (DO-204AA) glass axial-leaded package, rated for ±5% voltage tolerance at 10 mA test current, with 0.01 %/°C temperature coefficient, 15 Ω zener impedance, and 130 mV max voltage drift over –55°C to +100°C. It serves as a precision voltage reference in analog instrumentation calibration circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N3154UR-1/TR datasheet, 1N3154UR-1/TR pinout, 1N3154UR-1/TR application, or 1N3154UR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its low TC stability, hermetic glass packaging, MIL-PRF-19500/158 JANTXV qualification capability, and RoHS-compliant tape-and-reel availability via the "TR" suffix.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Microsemi's JEDEC-registered 1N3154–1N3157A series of zero-TC Zener references, engineered for minimal voltage drift across wide temperature ranges. Its metallurgically bonded junction achieves 0.01 %/°C effective temperature coefficient and 130 mV total ΔVZ over –55°C to +100°C when biased at 10 mA.
The DO-7 package supports axial-leaded mounting with tin-lead or matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750, and operates up to 175°C storage temperature. It is ESD-insensitive per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 and rated for 500 mW dissipation at 25°C lead temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 8.00–8.80 V @ IZT = 10 mA - defines nominal 8.4 V reference with ±5% initial tolerance |
| Temp Coefficient (αVZ) | 0.01 %/°C - ensures <±1.3 mV/°C drift in precision analog references |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 15 Ω @ 1 mA ac superimposed on 10 mA dc - enables stable regulation under dynamic load changes |
| Voltage Drift (ΔVZT) | 130 mV over –55°C to +100°C - guarantees bounded error in industrial temperature environments |
| Max Reverse Current (IR) | 10 μA @ 5.5 V - confirms low leakage for high-impedance reference node integrity |

Pinout & Package
Hermetically sealed DO-7 (DO-204AA) glass axial-leaded package with cathode band marking; polarity requires banded end to be positive relative to unmarked end during forward-biased reference operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference ground return | Low-impedance path for bias current return; must connect to system ground or regulated negative rail |
| Cathode (banded end) | Reference output node | Provides stable 8.4 V potential; connects to high-impedance input of op-amp or ADC reference pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Temperature-compensated Zener structure | 0.01 %/°C TC enables <±0.85 mV error over 0–70°C ambient in calibrated instruments |
| Hermetic glass DO-7 package | Enables operation from –65°C to +175°C and long-term stability in harsh environments |
| MIL-PRF-19500/158 qualification path | Supports JANTXV-level military use via prefix/suffix modification (e.g., JANTXV1N3154-1) |
| RoHS-compliant tape-and-reel option | "TR" suffix denotes EIA-296 compliant packaging for automated SMT-compatible axial insertion |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N3154UR-1/TR?
The 1N3154UR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 8.4 V with a guaranteed range of 8.00–8.80 V at 10 mA test current, corresponding to ±5% initial tolerance. This tolerance is specified per JEDEC registration and applies to the base part number before optional suffixes like "-1%" or "-2%" are added for tighter binning.
Does the 1N3154UR-1/TR have military qualification, and how is it designated?
Yes - the base 1N3154UR-1/TR can be ordered with JANTXV qualification by using the prefix "JANTXV" and retaining the "-1" suffix, forming "JANTXV1N3154-1". This variant meets MIL-PRF-19500/158 Class V requirements. The "UR" and "TR" suffixes denote RoHS-compliant plating and tape-and-reel packaging, respectively, and remain compatible with military ordering conventions.
What is the maximum operating temperature and power rating for the 1N3154UR-1/TR?
The 1N3154UR-1/TR is rated for continuous operation from –65°C to +175°C storage temperature, with recommended operating range up to +100°C. Its DC power dissipation is 500 mW at 25°C lead temperature (TL), though optimal voltage-temperature stability is achieved at 10 mA bias (≤90 mW dissipation).
How does the temperature coefficient of the 1N3154UR-1/TR affect its performance in real circuits?
The 1N3154UR-1/TR has an effective temperature coefficient of 0.01 %/°C, meaning its output voltage changes by approximately ±0.84 mV per °C around 8.4 V. Over –55°C to +100°C, this results in ≤130 mV total drift - a design-critical bound for analog signal chains where reference stability directly impacts measurement accuracy.
Is the 1N3154UR-1/TR RoHS compliant, and what does the "e3" and "TR" suffix indicate?
Yes - the "UR" in 1N3154UR-1/TR indicates RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. The "TR" suffix denotes EIA-296 standard tape-and-reel packaging for automated handling. Note that "e3" is an alternate RoHS suffix used on other variants but is not part of this specific orderable number; "UR" fulfills the same compliance requirement.
