Product details
Overview
1N4739AUR/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 1.0 W glass-encapsulated Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage 9.1 V, ±5% tolerance, 5.0 Ω dynamic impedance at 28 mA test current, and maximum reverse leakage of 7 μA at 7.3 V. It operates from –65°C to +175°C and is used for precision voltage regulation in high-density power supply rails and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4739AUR/TR datasheet, 1N4739AUR/TR pinout, 1N4739AUR/TR application, or 1N4739AUR/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage stability over temperature, low dynamic impedance for tight regulation, hermetic glass MELF package reliability, and RoHS-compliant (e3) tape-and-reel availability.
Technical Context
This device implements a single-junction silicon Zener diode structure optimized for stable reverse-breakdown operation under DC and low-frequency AC conditions. Its DO-213AB glass MELF package provides hermetic sealing and low parasitic capacitance (specified in Figure 2), supporting high-reliability and radiation-hardened applications per MicroNote 050.
The 1N4739AUR/TR delivers regulated 9.1 V output across a wide operating current range (IZK = 0.5 mA to IZM = 500 mA), with thermal resistance of 130°C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 PCB (1 oz Cu). Forward voltage is ≤1.2 V at 200 mA, confirming standard PN junction behavior in forward bias.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4739A-T | Same 9.1 V ±5%, but in DO-41 axial package; higher thermal resistance (75°C/W junction-to-lead) | Requires through-hole mounting and larger board area; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts | Select 1N4739AUR/TR for space-constrained, automated assembly; choose 1N4739A-T only if legacy through-hole compatibility is mandatory |
| SMAJ4739A | Same electrical specs, but in SMA package; plastic body, non-hermetic, lower max temp (150°C) | Lacks radiation hardness and long-term hermetic reliability; not qualified to MIL-PRF-19500 screening levels | Use SMAJ4739A where cost and volume outweigh reliability requirements; retain 1N4739AUR/TR for aerospace, defense, or extended-life deployments |
Compared with 1N4739A-T and SMAJ4739A, the 1N4739AUR/TR uniquely combines surface-mount compatibility, hermetic glass reliability, full –65°C to +175°C operation, and radiation hardness-making it the only option qualified for mission-critical, high-temperature, or radiation-exposed use cases.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for the 1N4739AUR/TR?
The 1N4739AUR/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 9.1 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its part number. This tolerance is verified at 30°C with 90-second stabilization time after DC current application, per Microsemi's test methodology documented in the datasheet revision D.
Does the 1N4739AUR/TR require a heatsink in typical PCB applications?
No, the 1N4739AUR/TR does not require an external heatsink when mounted on FR4 with 1 oz copper using the recommended pad layout. Its thermal resistance is 130°C/W junction-to-ambient, and at 1.0 W dissipation, junction temperature rise remains within safe limits (<125°C) at ambient temperatures below 45°C.
Is the 1N4739AUR/TR compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the 1N4739AUR/TR is RoHS-compliant (e3 suffix) and rated for lead-free reflow soldering at 260°C for up to 10 seconds. Its glass MELF body and annealed matte-tin plating meet MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 for solderability, ensuring reliable joint formation without cracking or delamination.
How does the 1N4739AUR/TR compare to the 1N4739A in terms of thermal performance?
The 1N4739AUR/TR uses a DO-213AB glass MELF package with 130°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on FR4, while the axial 1N4739A (DO-41) has 75°C/W junction-to-lead but significantly higher effective ambient resistance due to limited PCB heat spreading. Thus, the 1N4739AUR/TR achieves better system-level thermal management in dense SMT layouts.
Can the 1N4739AUR/TR be used in radiation-intensive environments such as space applications?
Yes, the 1N4739AUR/TR is inherently radiation-hardened per MicroNote 050 and qualifies for use in space-grade subsystems. Its hermetic glass MELF construction prevents parametric shift under total ionizing dose (TID), and it is available with JAN/JANTXV screening prefixes for full MIL-PRF-19500 compliance when ordered with appropriate prefixes.
