Product details
Overview
1N4982US/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount, voidless-hermetically-sealed glass Zener diode rated for 5 W power dissipation at TEC = 125 °C, with nominal Zener voltage of 100 V ±5%, dynamic impedance of 110 Ω at 12 mA test current, and maximum reverse leakage of 2 μA at 76 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in high-reliability aerospace and defense power regulation circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4982US/TR datasheet, 1N4982US/TR pinout, 1N4982US/TR application, or 1N4982US/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its military-grade hermetic glass package, -65 °C to +175 °C operating temperature range, 1.5 V forward voltage at 1 A, and radiation-hardened construction per MicroNote 050.
Technical Context
This device belongs to the MIL-PRF-19500/356-qualified 1N4954US–1N4996US series, featuring triple-layer passivation and Category I internal metallurgical bonds. Its voidless-glass construction ensures long-term stability under thermal cycling and high-humidity environments.
The 1N4982US/TR operates across a wide regulation current range (10% to 50% of IZM), delivering ≤8.0 V voltage regulation shift (ΔVZ) and exhibiting a temperature coefficient of +0.100 %/°C - enabling predictable drift compensation in precision analog systems.
Key Specifications

| Power Dissipation | 5 W @ TEC = 125 °C - supports sustained operation in conduction-limited surface-mount layouts |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 110 Ω @ IZT = 12 mA - determines output voltage ripple rejection under load transients |
| Max Reverse Leakage (IR) | 2 μA @ VR = 76 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJC) | 10 °C/W junction-to-end-cap - enables accurate thermal modeling for PCB copper pad sizing |
| Surge Current (IZSM) | 1.4 A @ 8.3 ms square wave - withstands transient overvoltage events without degradation |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.50 V @ 1.0 A - defines conduction loss during forward-biased fault conditions |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4982US | Same electrical specs and package; differs only in packaging format (bulk vs. tape/reel) | No functional difference; identical use in solder-reflow assembly | Select 1N4982US/TR when automated pick-and-place placement is required |
| 1N4982 | Axial-leaded variant; same Zener voltage and power rating but TO-204AA metal-can package | Requires through-hole mounting; higher thermal resistance (12 °C/W) limits power density | Choose 1N4982 for legacy through-hole designs or manual prototyping where reflow compatibility is not needed |
Compared with 1N4982US/TR, the bulk-packaged 1N4982US offers identical performance but lacks EIA-481-B tape-and-reel compliance, while the axial 1N4982 trades surface-mount efficiency for easier hand-soldering and higher mechanical robustness in vibration-prone chassis mounts.
