Product details
Overview
1N5247BUR-1 from Microsemi is a 17 V, 500 mW surface-mount Zener diode in DO-213AA (SOD80/MLL34) MELF glass package with ±5% voltage tolerance, 7.4 mA test current, and 19 Ω dynamic impedance at 25 °C. It regulates voltage across wide current and temperature ranges and is used in precision reference and low-power voltage stabilization circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5247BUR-1 datasheet, 1N5247BUR-1 pinout, 1N5247BUR-1 application, or 1N5247BUR-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (100 °C/W junction-to-end-cap), low leakage (<0.1 µA at 12.4 V), radiation hardness, and RoHS-compliant commercial-grade availability.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased voltage reference with a nominal Zener voltage of 17 V at 7.4 mA test current (IZT), exhibiting a positive temperature coefficient of +0.084 %/°C. Its metallurgically bonded glass construction ensures hermetic sealing and stable regulation under thermal cycling.
The 1N5247BUR-1 delivers 500 mW steady-state power dissipation at end-cap temperature <125 °C, with thermal resistance junction-to-end-cap rated at 100 °C/W and junction-to-ambient at 250 °C/W on FR4 board. Forward voltage is ≤1.1 V at 200 mA.
