Product details
Overview
1N4133UR/TR from Microsemi is a glass-encapsulated surface-mount Zener diode with 87 V nominal Zener voltage, 0.5 W power rating, ±5% voltage tolerance (no suffix), 250 mA Zener test current, and DO-213AA (SOD-80/MLL34) MELF package. It regulates voltage in precision reference and overvoltage protection circuits across industrial temperature ranges.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4133UR/TR datasheet, 1N4133UR/TR pinout, 1N4133UR/TR application, or 1N4133UR/TR equivalent, key selection factors include Zener voltage stability over temperature (αVZ = +0.095 %/°C), low reverse leakage (≤0.01 μA at VR), hermetic glass sealing, and RoHS-compliant e3 marking with TR tape-and-reel packaging.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference using avalanche breakdown in silicon. Its Zener impedance of 1000 Ω at 250 mA ensures stable regulation under varying load conditions, and its thermal resistance of 150 °C/W (junction-to-end-cap) supports reliable operation up to +175 °C storage temperature.
The cathode band indicates polarity for reverse-bias operation, and its minimal capacitance (≈5.1 pF, typical per Figure 3) enables use in high-frequency stabilization and noise-sensitive analog references without signal coupling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 87 V ±5% at 250 mA - sets precise clamping threshold for overvoltage protection |
| Power Dissipation | 0.5 W at TEC < 100 °C - defines maximum continuous thermal load on end cap |
| Zener Impedance ZZT | 1000 Ω at IZT = 250 mA - determines output voltage deviation under load transients |
| Reverse Leakage IR | ≤0.01 μA at rated VR - ensures negligible standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Noise Density | 1 μV/√Hz at IZT - supports low-noise voltage references in instrumentation amplifiers |
| Temp. Coefficient αVZ | +0.095 %/°C - quantifies positive drift with temperature, critical for wide-range stability |
| Package | DO-213AA (SOD-80/MLL34) - hermetically sealed glass MELF for moisture resistance and reliability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C82LT1G | 82 V nominal, SOT-23 package, 350 mW rating, ±5% tolerance, higher ZZT (1200 Ω) | Suitable for PCB space-constrained designs but lacks hermetic seal and radiation hardness | Select when board area is critical and environmental stress is low; not for aerospace or high-reliability use |
| 1N4743A | 13 V nominal, DO-41 axial package, 1 W rating, ±5% tolerance, lower temp coefficient (0.055 %/°C) | Higher power and axial form factor; incompatible voltage level and mounting method | Choose only for 13 V reference needs with through-hole assembly; not a functional substitute for 87 V requirement |
Compared with BZX84-C82LT1G and 1N4743A, the 1N4133UR/TR uniquely delivers 87 V regulation in a hermetically sealed, radiation-tolerant MELF package with validated performance from -65°C to +175°C - essential for mission-critical voltage referencing where reliability outweighs cost or footprint.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N4133UR/TR?
The 1N4133UR/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 87 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the absence of C (±2%) or D (±1%) suffix. This tolerance applies under thermal equilibrium at 25 °C with 250 mA test current, per JEDEC registration and Microsemi datasheet Rev D.
Is 1N4133UR/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the "e3" suffix in 1N4133UR/TR denotes RoHS compliance, with annealed matte-tin plating on end caps per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. The device meets lead-free soldering requirements including 260 °C for 10 seconds, and is documented in Microsemi's official datasheet as RoHS-compliant.
What does the "TR" suffix mean in 1N4133UR/TR?
The "TR" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481-1-A standard: 12 mm carrier tape, 2000 units per 7-inch reel. This format supports automated SMT placement and is specified in the Microsemi datasheet for all UR-series Zeners requiring volume production handling.
Can 1N4133UR/TR replace 1N4133UR in a design?
Yes - 1N4133UR/TR is functionally identical to 1N4133UR except for packaging: both share identical electrical parameters, DO-213AA package, and Zener characteristics. The "TR" adds tape-and-reel delivery; no circuit or layout changes are needed when substituting 1N4133UR/TR for 1N4133UR in SMT assembly.
What is the maximum operating temperature for 1N4133UR/TR?
The 1N4133UR/TR is rated for operating and storage temperatures from -65 °C to +175 °C. Its thermal resistance is 150 °C/W junction-to-end-cap, and full 0.5 W power dissipation is guaranteed only when end-cap temperature remains below 100 °C, per derating curve in Figure 2 of the Microsemi datasheet.
