Product details
Overview
1N4761UR-1/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 1.0 W glass Zener diode with a nominal Zener voltage of 75 V, ±5% tolerance (A-suffix), 3.3 mA test current, and 175 °C maximum operating temperature. It features hermetically sealed DO-213AB MELF packaging, low dynamic impedance (16 Ω at IZT), and is rated for 2000 mA maximum regulator current at TA = 50 °C - used for precision voltage regulation in high-reliability power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4761UR-1/TR datasheet, 1N4761UR-1/TR pinout, 1N4761UR-1/TR application, or 1N4761UR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage stability across temperature, low knee impedance (12 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA), JEDEC-compliant surface-mount footprint, and radiation-hardened performance per MicroNote 050.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference in reverse-bias breakdown mode, delivering stable regulation over 0.25–2000 mA current range and −65 °C to +175 °C ambient. Its glass MELF construction ensures hermeticity, low parasitic capacitance, and immunity to moisture-induced degradation.
The 1N4761UR-1/TR exhibits a sharp Zener knee with ZZK = 12 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA and ZZT = 16 Ω at IZT = 3.3 mA, enabling accurate low-current reference operation. Thermal resistance is 130 °C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4 (1 oz Cu) with recommended pad layout, supporting reliable 1.0 W dissipation up to 45 °C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 75 V ±5% at IZT = 3.3 mA - defines regulated output level in feedback networks |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TEC < 125 °C - sets thermal design margin for PCB layout and heatsinking |
| Dynamic Impedance | 16 Ω at IZT = 3.3 mA - determines load regulation error under varying current |
| Knee Impedance | 12 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA - enables stable reference behavior at low bias currents |
| Reverse Leakage | 5 μA max at VR = 57 V - limits quiescent current in high-impedance sensing paths |
| Operating Temp | −65 °C to +175 °C - supports aerospace, downhole, and industrial environments |
| Surge Current | 2000 mA (½-sine, 1/120 s) - withstands transient overvoltage events without failure |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-213AB glass MELF - cylindrical, leadless, hermetically sealed surface-mount package with cathode band marking; dimensions: Ø2.39–2.66 mm × 4.80–5.20 mm length; weight: 0.05 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Zener anode connection point | Must be biased positive relative to anode to enter breakdown; band identifies polarity during placement |
| Anode (unbanded end) | Zener cathode connection point | Connected to circuit ground or lower potential node; completes reverse-bias path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hermetic glass MELF construction | Eliminates moisture ingress and long-term parameter drift in harsh environments |
| Radiation hardness per MicroNote 050 | Enables use in space-grade and nuclear instrumentation without derating |
| Low ESD sensitivity | Reduces handling risk during SMT assembly; no special grounding required |
| Tight Zener voltage tolerance (±5%) | Minimizes calibration effort in precision feedback and reference circuits |
| RoHS-compliant (e3 suffix) | Meets global environmental compliance without sacrificing electrical performance |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Feedback | Aerospace Voltage Reference |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Regulating output voltage in isolated DC-DC converters using optocoupler feedback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode provides stable reference voltage for TL431 or optocoupler input stage. Use Value: 75 V rating allows direct sensing of high-voltage rails; ±5% tolerance reduces need for post-assembly trimming. |
Use Scenario: Providing primary voltage reference in satellite power management units exposed to total ionizing dose. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Two-terminal passive reference replacing active ICs where radiation-induced latch-up must be avoided. Use Value: Inherent radiation hardness eliminates shielding or redundancy overhead; DO-213AB package resists mechanical shock during launch. |
| Downhole Oilfield Sensor Biasing | High-Temperature Motor Drive Protection |
Use Scenario: Biasing signal conditioning circuitry in borehole logging tools operating at 150 °C ambient. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener clamps supply rail to protect downstream op-amps and ADCs from overvoltage. Use Value: 175 °C max operating temperature exceeds downhole requirements; hermetic seal prevents electrolyte corrosion. |
Use Scenario: Overvoltage protection for gate drivers in 3-phase inverters mounted near motor windings. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Clamping transient spikes induced by IGBT switching to safeguard driver IC inputs. Use Value: 2000 mA surge rating absorbs repetitive switching transients; low ZZK ensures fast response below knee voltage. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4761AUR-1/TR | Same Zener voltage (75 V), same DO-213AB package, identical electrical specs - differs only in part numbering convention (AUR vs UR) | No functional difference; both meet MIL-PRF-19500 screening options when prefixed (e.g., MV1N4761AUR) | Select 1N4761AUR-1/TR if legacy BOMs or distributor stock use AUR nomenclature |
| SMAJ4761A | Plastic-packaged SMA surface-mount variant; higher capacitance (~20 pF vs <5 pF), lower max temp (150 °C), non-hermetic | Suitable for commercial-grade consumer power supplies but not radiation- or moisture-critical systems | Choose SMAJ4761A only for cost-sensitive, non-mission-critical designs where hermeticity and radiation tolerance are unnecessary |
Compared with 1N4761UR-1/TR, 1N4761AUR-1/TR offers identical performance and form factor, while SMAJ4761A trades hermetic reliability and temperature range for lower cost and higher volume availability in plastic packaging.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N4761UR-1/TR?
The 1N4761UR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 75 V with a tolerance of ±5%, indicated by the "A" suffix in its full designation. This tolerance is verified at 3.3 mA test current and 30 °C case temperature, and remains stable across its full operating temperature range of −65 °C to +175 °C.
Does 1N4761UR-1/TR require special handling for ESD sensitivity?
No - the 1N4761UR-1/TR is explicitly characterized as nonsensitive to ESD per manufacturer documentation. Its glass MELF construction and terminal plating eliminate the need for special grounding or static-control protocols during SMT placement or manual handling.
Can 1N4761UR-1/TR be used in place of through-hole 1N4761A?
Yes, the 1N4761UR-1/TR is electrically equivalent to the axial-leaded 1N4761A but packaged in surface-mount DO-213AB format. While pinout differs (leadless MELF vs axial leads), it delivers identical Zener voltage, impedance, and thermal characteristics - making it a drop-in functional replacement where board space and mounting method permit.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for 1N4761UR-1/TR on FR4 PCB?
The 1N4761UR-1/TR dissipates 1.00 W continuously when mounted on FR4 with 1 oz copper and Microsemi's recommended pad layout, provided ambient temperature stays below 45 °C. Above that, power must be derated linearly per Figure 1 in the datasheet, reaching zero at 125 °C ambient.
Is 1N4761UR-1/TR compliant with RoHS requirements?
Yes - the "e3" suffix in the full part number (e.g., 1N4761UR-1/TR e3) denotes RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating. The base 1N4761UR-1/TR meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU when ordered with this suffix, and uses lead-free solder compatible with standard reflow profiles up to 260 °C for 10 seconds.
