Product details
Overview
1N483BUR/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed glass switching diode with metallurgically bonded double-plug construction, 225 V DC reverse voltage rating, 200 mA maximum operating current at 25°C, and -65°C to +175°C operating temperature range-used in high-reliability power supply clamp and transient suppression circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N483BUR/TR datasheet, 1N483BUR/TR pinout, 1N483BUR/TR application, or 1N483BUR/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its hermetic glass package, 500 mW total power dissipation at 25°C, 2 A surge current capability, 0.8–1.0 V forward voltage at 100 mA, and 0.025 µA max reverse leakage at 225 V.
Technical Context
This diode employs metallurgical bonding and double-plug construction for enhanced thermal stability and reliability under extreme temperature cycling. Its hermetically sealed glass package eliminates moisture ingress and supports operation from -65°C to +175°C without parameter drift.
The device exhibits low forward voltage (0.8–1.0 V at 100 mA) and ultra-low reverse leakage (≤0.025 µA at 225 V), enabling efficient clamping in high-impedance signal paths and precision voltage reference protection circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| DC Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 225 V - Maximum continuous reverse-bias voltage before breakdown; defines clamping threshold in overvoltage protection. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 0.8–1.0 V at 100 mA - Low conduction loss enables minimal power dissipation in series-switching applications. |
| Max Operating Current | 200 mA at 25°C - Sustained forward current limit; derates linearly to 50 mA at 150°C. |
| Total Power Dissipation | 500 mW at 25°C - Thermal design basis; requires 3 mW/°C derating above ambient. |
| Surge Current (8.3 ms) | 2 A - Withstands short-duration transients common in inductive load switching and ESD events. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤0.025 µA at 225 V - Ensures negligible standby current in high-impedance bias networks. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LL483B | Same die and electrical specs; plastic DO-35 package instead of hermetic glass. | Limited to -65°C to +125°C operation; unsuitable for >125°C or high-humidity environments. | Select LL483B only for cost-sensitive commercial-grade designs where hermeticity and extended temperature are not required. |
| CDLL483B | Same electrical ratings; surface-mount SOD-323 package with tin/lead finish. | No axial leads; requires rework of PCB layout; thermal resistance differs due to package geometry. | Choose CDLL483B when automated assembly and board space reduction outweigh the need for axial-lead serviceability or legacy through-hole compatibility. |
Compared with 1N483BUR/TR, LL483B sacrifices hermetic sealing and high-temperature capability for lower cost, while CDLL483B trades axial-leaded reliability and thermal performance for SMT manufacturability-neither is pin-compatible, and both require layout or thermal redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage rating for the 1N483BUR/TR?
The 1N483BUR/TR has a DC reverse voltage (VRWM) rating of 225 V. This value represents the maximum continuous reverse-bias voltage the diode can withstand without entering breakdown. It is specified at 25°C and remains valid across the full -65°C to +175°C operating temperature range, making the 1N483BUR/TR suitable for high-voltage clamping in demanding environments.
Does the 1N483BUR/TR have a specified forward voltage, and under what conditions?
Yes, the 1N483BUR/TR has a forward voltage (VF) of 0.8–1.0 V at 100 mA forward current and 25°C ambient temperature. This low VF range reflects its metallurgically bonded junction and contributes to reduced conduction losses in series-switching or clamping configurations. The 1N483BUR/TR maintains stable VF behavior across its full temperature range due to hermetic packaging.
Is the 1N483BUR/TR suitable for use above 125°C?
Yes, the 1N483BUR/TR is explicitly rated for operation from -65°C to +175°C. Its hermetically sealed glass package and double-plug construction ensure parameter stability and long-term reliability at elevated temperatures. At 150°C, it retains a rated forward current of 50 mA with 1.0 mA/°C derating above that point-confirming suitability for downhole, engine bay, and avionics applications exceeding 125°C.
What does the "TR" suffix indicate in 1N483BUR/TR?
The "TR" suffix in 1N483BUR/TR denotes tape-and-reel packaging for automated surface-mount assembly. While the 1N483BUR/TR retains axial leads and is physically through-hole mountable, the TR variant is supplied on industry-standard 7-inch reels with embossed carrier tape, enabling pick-and-place handling. The electrical and thermal specifications of the 1N483BUR/TR are identical to the bulk or ammo-pack versions.
How does the hermetic glass package of the 1N483BUR/TR improve reliability compared to plastic diodes?
The hermetic glass package of the 1N483BUR/TR prevents moisture ingress, ionic contamination, and outgassing-key failure mechanisms in plastic-packaged diodes under thermal cycling or high-humidity conditions. This construction enables the 1N483BUR/TR to maintain consistent VF, IR, and VRWM over decades of field use in aerospace, oilfield, and military systems where long-term parametric stability is non-negotiable.
