Product details
Overview
1N5263BUR-1/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 56 V, 500 mW Zener diode in DO-213AA (SOD80) glass MELF package, rated for ±5% voltage tolerance at 2.2 mA test current, with 150 Ω dynamic impedance and +0.096 %/°C temperature coefficient-used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5263BUR-1/TR datasheet, 1N5263BUR-1/TR pinout, 1N5263BUR-1/TR application, or 1N5263BUR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage stability across temperature, low leakage (<0.1 µA at 41 V), hermetic glass packaging for reliability, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly per EIA-481-B tape-and-reel.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased voltage regulator in its breakdown region, with specified Zener voltage measured at IZT = 2.2 mA and thermal equilibrium at 30 ± 2 °C case temperature. Its metallurgically bonded glass construction ensures stable junction characteristics and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
It exhibits a positive temperature coefficient (+0.096 %/°C) above ~5 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in reference circuits. Maximum steady-state power dissipation is 0.5 W at end cap temperature <125 °C or ambient <50 °C on FR4 with 1 oz Cu.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 56 V ±5% at IZT = 2.2 mA - defines regulation setpoint for feedback or clamping circuits |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 0.5 W - limits continuous current to ~8.9 mA at 56 V without derating |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 150 Ω at IZT = 2.2 mA - determines output voltage variation under load changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | <0.1 µA at VR = 41 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Temp. Coefficient (αVZ) | +0.096 %/°C - enables predictable voltage drift up to 175 °C junction temperature |
| Junction Temp. Range | –65 to +175 °C - supports operation in extended industrial and aerospace environments |
| Package | DO-213AA (SOD80) glass MELF - hermetically sealed, RoHS-compliant (e3), cathode band marked |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AA (SOD80) glass MELF package: cylindrical, metallurgically bonded, hermetically sealed, with tin-lead or matte-tin plating on end caps. Cathode indicated by single black band; polarity requires banded end to be positive during Zener operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference node / current sink | Connected to lower-potential rail; carries full Zener current in regulation mode |
| Cathode (banded end) | Regulated output / voltage source | Provides stable 56 V reference when reverse-biased; must be held at higher potential than anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Surface-mount JEDEC-compatible Zener | Direct SMT replacement for through-hole 1N5263B-1, eliminating manual insertion and improving board density |
| Hermetic glass MELF construction | Prevents moisture ingress and long-term parameter drift; qualified per MIL-PRF-19500 screening options |
| Low capacitance | Typical CJ ≈ 2 pF (per Figure 3) - minimizes signal coupling in RF bias and timing circuits |
| Radiation-hardened design | Inherently tolerant to total ionizing dose (TID) per Microsemi MicroNote 050 - suitable for space-qualified systems |
| ESD robustness | Non-sensitive per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - withstands handling without special precautions |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5263B-1 | Same 56 V ±5%, but axial DO-35 (through-hole) package; no tape-and-reel option | Requires manual soldering or wave soldering; unsuitable for high-density SMT lines | Select 1N5263B-1 only for legacy repair, prototyping, or mixed-technology boards where SMT is not feasible. |
| BZX55-C56 | 56 V ±5%, DO-35 package, 500 mW rating; higher ZZT (200 Ω) and wider tempco (±0.1 %/°C) | Lower regulation precision and greater thermal drift; not radiation-hardened | Choose BZX55-C56 for cost-sensitive commercial designs where radiation tolerance and ultra-stable drift are not required. |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance and test current for the 1N5263BUR-1/TR?
The 1N5263BUR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 56 V with a ±5% tolerance, verified at a test current (IZT) of 2.2 mA. This tolerance is guaranteed per the "B" suffix in the part number and applies under thermal equilibrium conditions at 30 ± 2 °C case temperature, as defined in Microsemi T4-LDS-0232-1 Rev. 1.
Is the 1N5263BUR-1/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N5263BUR-1/TR is RoHS compliant (designated by the "e3" suffix in the full nomenclature), with annealed matte-tin plating on end caps. RoHS compliance applies only to commercial-grade versions; military-screened variants (e.g., JANTXV) are exempt and use tin-lead plating.
What is the maximum power dissipation and thermal derating behavior of the 1N5263BUR-1/TR?
The 1N5263BUR-1/TR has a steady-state power dissipation rating of 0.5 W at end cap temperature <125 °C or ambient <50 °C on FR4 with 1 oz Cu. Derating follows the curve in Figure 2 of T4-LDS-0232-1: power drops linearly to zero at 175 °C junction temperature, with RθJA = 250 °C/W on standard PCB layout.
Does the 1N5263BUR-1/TR have radiation hardness certification?
Yes, the 1N5263BUR-1/TR is inherently radiation-hardened per Microsemi MicroNote 050, demonstrating tolerance to total ionizing dose (TID) without parameter shift degradation. It is commonly used in satellite power systems and nuclear instrumentation where radiation exposure exceeds 100 krad(Si).
What packaging format does the 1N5263BUR-1/TR ship in?
The 1N5263BUR-1/TR ships in EIA-481-B standard tape-and-reel format, indicated by the "TR" suffix. Reel quantities are configurable per factory consultation; standard carrier tape width is 8 mm, with pocket pitch of 4 mm and component orientation aligned to sprocket holes per specification.
