Product details
Overview
1N4706UR-1/TR from Microsemi is a 19.0 V, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW surface-mount Zener diode in DO-213AA (SOD80/MLL34) MELF package, tested at 50 µA Zener current, with 0.19 V regulation change between 10 µA and 100 µA, used for precision voltage reference and low-power regulation in space-constrained industrial power supplies and sensor signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4706UR-1/TR datasheet, 1N4706UR-1/TR pinout, 1N4706UR-1/TR application, or 1N4706UR-1/TR equivalent, key selection factors include its 19.0 V nominal Zener voltage, 14.4 mA maximum Zener current, hermetically sealed glass construction, minimal 1.0 µA reverse leakage at 15.2 V, and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating option.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across a wide current range (50 µA to 14.4 mA), with low dynamic impedance reflected by its 0.19 V ∆VZ specification. Its metallurgically bonded silicon die and hermetic glass package ensure high reliability and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
Designed for commercial-grade applications requiring stable reference voltages under thermal stress, it supports operation from –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature, with thermal resistance of 100 °C/W junction-to-end cap and 250 °C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 board.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4706A-TR | Same 19.0 V nominal voltage and DO-213AA package, but non-hermetic plastic SOD-123 package; higher 250 °C/W RθJA | Limited to commercial-grade, non-radiation-sensitive applications; unsuitable for high-reliability or extended-temperature use | Select 1N4706UR-1/TR when hermetic sealing, radiation tolerance, or operation beyond 125 °C is required |
| BZX55C18-TR | 18 V nominal voltage (5.6% lower), ±5% tolerance, DO-35 glass package; 100 µA IZT; 500 mW rating | Requires circuit recalibration for 18 V vs. 19 V reference; larger DO-35 footprint incompatible with MELF land patterns | Choose BZX55C18-TR only if 18 V suffices and board layout allows axial-style mounting |
Compared with 1N4706A-TR and BZX55C18-TR, the 1N4706UR-1/TR delivers superior thermal performance (100 °C/W RθJL), guaranteed hermeticity, and radiation tolerance-making it the sole choice for high-stability, high-reliability, or extended-temperature Zener reference applications where parameter drift must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N4706UR-1/TR?
The 1N4706UR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 19.0 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, meaning its actual regulation voltage falls between 18.05 V and 19.95 V at 25 °C and 50 µA test current. Tighter 2% and 1% tolerance variants exist under different suffixes, but the 1N4706UR-1/TR specifically uses the ±5% grade.
What package type does the 1N4706UR-1/TR use, and how is polarity identified?
The 1N4706UR-1/TR uses the DO-213AA (also known as SOD80 or MLL34) hermetically sealed glass MELF package. Polarity is indicated by a visible cathode band on one end; during Zener operation, the banded end must be held at a higher potential than the unbanded (anode) end.
What is the maximum Zener current (IZM) and how is it derived for the 1N4706UR-1/TR?
The maximum Zener current (IZM) for the 1N4706UR-1/TR is 14.4 mA. This value is calculated from its 500 mW power rating and 19.0 V nominal Zener voltage (IZM = PD / VZ ≈ 500 mW / 19.0 V), and is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the Microsemi datasheet T4-LDS-0240-1 Rev. 2.
Is the 1N4706UR-1/TR suitable for RoHS-compliant manufacturing?
Yes-the 1N4706UR-1/TR is available in a RoHS-compliant version with matte-tin plating on its end caps, designated by the "e3" suffix in full nomenclature (e.g., 1N4706UR-1/TR e3). This variant meets MIL-STD-750 solderability requirements and supports lead-free reflow up to 260 °C for 10 seconds.
How does the 1N4706UR-1/TR perform under elevated temperature conditions?
The 1N4706UR-1/TR is rated for junction temperatures from –65 °C to +175 °C. Its power dissipation must be derated above 50 °C ambient (or 125 °C end-cap temperature) per the curve in Figure 1 of the datasheet. At 100 °C ambient, its usable power drops to ~300 mW, maintaining safe operation with appropriate PCB copper area and thermal relief.
