Product details
Overview
1N4734UR-1/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 1.0 W glass Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage 5.6 V, ±5% tolerance (A-suffix), 45 mA test current (IZT), 5 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 10 μA maximum reverse leakage at 4.2 V (VR). It operates from –65°C to +175°C and is used for precision voltage regulation in high-density power supply feedback loops and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4734UR-1/TR datasheet, 1N4734UR-1/TR pinout, 1N4734UR-1/TR application, or 1N4734UR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage stability over temperature, low dynamic impedance for tight regulation, hermetic DO-213AB glass MELF package suitability for high-reliability environments, and RoHS-compliant (e3) termination options.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Microsemi's 1N47xxAUR family of surface-mount Zener diodes, electrically equivalent to through-hole 1N47xxA parts but packaged in JEDEC DO-213AB glass MELF. It delivers stable voltage regulation across 1 mA to 162 mA operating current (IZM = 162 mA at TA = 50°C), with sharp breakdown knee characterized by ZZK = 400 Ω at IZK = 1.0 mA.
The 1N4734UR-1/TR uses a hermetically sealed glass construction enabling inherent radiation hardness per MicroNote 050 and operation up to +175°C junction temperature. Its thermal resistance is 130°C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 with recommended footprint, supporting reliable performance in thermally constrained industrial and aerospace designs.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4734A | Same electrical specs (5.6 V, ±5%, 1 W), but DO-41 axial-leaded package | Requires through-hole mounting; higher parasitic inductance; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select when legacy board compatibility or manual prototyping is prioritized over miniaturization |
| SMAJ4734A | Same Zener voltage and tolerance, but SMA package (plastic, not glass); 1.0 W Pd; higher capacitance (~50 pF vs. ~3 pF) | Lower cost and wider availability, but lacks radiation hardness and high-temperature endurance | Select for commercial-grade consumer electronics where cost and volume outweigh reliability requirements |
Compared with 1N4734A and SMAJ4734A, the 1N4734UR-1/TR uniquely combines hermetic glass MELF packaging, radiation hardness, and extended temperature range-making it the only choice for mission-critical, high-reliability SMT voltage regulation where environmental robustness is non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4734UR-1/TR?
The 1N4734UR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 5.6 V with ±5% tolerance, indicated by the "A" suffix in its designation. This tolerance is verified at 30°C with 45 mA test current (IZT) and applies across the full operating temperature range of –65°C to +175°C, ensuring predictable regulation in demanding environments.
Is the 1N4734UR-1/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N4734UR-1/TR carries the "e3" suffix, confirming RoHS compliance with matte-tin plating that meets MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 solderability requirements. It supports lead-free reflow profiles up to 260°C for 10 seconds, making it suitable for modern environmentally regulated manufacturing.
What package type does the 1N4734UR-1/TR use?
The 1N4734UR-1/TR uses the JEDEC DO-213AB glass MELF package-a hermetically sealed, leadless cylindrical surface-mount outline. Its dimensions are 2.39–2.66 mm diameter (A) and 4.80–5.20 mm length (B), optimized for high-density placement and low parasitic inductance in precision analog circuits.
How does the 1N4734UR-1/TR differ from the through-hole 1N4734A?
The 1N4734UR-1/TR matches the 1N4734A electrically (5.6 V, ±5%, 1 W), but replaces the DO-41 axial package with DO-213AB glass MELF. This enables surface-mount assembly, reduces board area, lowers parasitics, and extends operational temperature range to +175°C-critical for aerospace and downhole applications where the 1N4734A cannot perform.
What is the maximum steady-state current for the 1N4734UR-1/TR at 50°C ambient?
At TA = 50°C, the 1N4734UR-1/TR supports a maximum regulator current (IZM) of 162 mA. This value is derived from its 1.0 W power rating and thermal resistance of 130°C/W on FR4 with recommended pad layout, ensuring safe operation without derating in typical industrial ambient conditions.
