Product details
Overview
1N5268BUR-1/TR from Microsemi is a 82 V, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW surface-mount Zener diode in DO-213AA (MELF) package, designed for precision voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops, reference circuits, and overvoltage protection in industrial control and telecom power modules.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5268BUR-1/TR datasheet, 1N5268BUR-1/TR pinout, 1N5268BUR-1/TR application, or 1N5268BUR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy at 1.5 mA test current, dynamic impedance of 330 Ω at IZT, temperature coefficient of +0.098 %/°C, and hermetic glass packaging suitable for high-reliability environments.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 82 V regulation across a broad current range (IZK = 0.25 mA to IZM ≈ 6.1 mA), with low leakage (<0.1 µA at VR = 65 V) and minimal capacitance (~1.5 pF typical). Its metallurgically bonded glass construction ensures robust thermal performance and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
The 1N5268BUR-1/TR exhibits a positive temperature coefficient (+0.098 %/°C), requiring careful thermal design in high-temperature applications; its 250 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance assumes FR4 board mounting with recommended footprint per datasheet Figure 2.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 82 V ±5% at IZT = 1.5 mA - defines nominal regulation point with tight tolerance for stable reference generation |
| Power Dissipation PD | 0.5 W - limits continuous operating current to ~6.1 mA at 82 V, requiring derating above 50 °C ambient |
| Zener Impedance ZZT | 330 Ω at IZT = 1.5 mA - determines output voltage variation under load transients; higher than lower-voltage variants due to physics of high-VZ devices |
| Reverse Leakage IR | <0.1 µA at VR = 65 V - ensures negligible error current in high-impedance reference paths |
| Temp Coefficient αVZ | +0.098 %/°C - causes ~80 mV/°C drift; must be compensated in precision references above 70 °C |
| Junction Temp Range | –65 to +175 °C - enables operation in extended industrial and aerospace environments without derating |
| Forward Voltage VF | 1.1 V max at IF = 200 mA - supports use as clamp or protection diode in forward bias during fault conditions |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AA (SOD-80 / MLL34) metallurgically bonded glass MELF package with cathode band marking; terminals are end caps with tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating; polarity: banded end is cathode (positive during Zener operation).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference ground node | Connected to circuit common; forms return path for Zener current during regulation |
| Cathode (banded end) | Regulated output node | Provides stable 82 V relative to anode; must be decoupled for noise-sensitive analog references |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hermetically sealed glass construction | Eliminates moisture ingress and long-term parameter drift; critical for 15+ year field reliability in telecom infrastructure |
| Metallurgical bonding | Enables superior thermal transfer from junction to end cap (RθJEC = 100 °C/W), supporting pulse operation beyond DC ratings |
| MIL-PRF-19500 up-screening option | Available for high-reliability versions (e.g., JAN, JANTX); supports qualification to military screening levels without redesign |
| Low capacitance (~1.5 pF) | Minimizes high-frequency loading on oscillator or RF bias networks where Zener is used for voltage clamping |
| Radiation hardness | Inherently tolerant to total ionizing dose (TID) per MicroNote 050 - validated for space-qualified systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5268B-1/TR | Same electrical specs but in axial DO-35 package; no hermetic glass seal; RθJA = 500 °C/W | Limited to commercial-grade, non-radiation-hardened, lower-reliability PCBs with through-hole assembly | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs reliability requirements and board space permits axial leaded components |
| BZX84-C82LT1G | SOT-23 package; 82 V ±5%; 350 mW rating; ZZT = 500 Ω; not radiation hardened | Higher thermal resistance and plastic package limit use in high-temp or mission-critical environments | Choose for space-constrained consumer designs where full MIL-spec compliance is unnecessary |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance and test current for the 1N5268BUR-1/TR?
The 1N5268BUR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 82 V with ±5% tolerance, measured at a test current IZT of 1.5 mA. This tolerance is guaranteed per the "B" suffix in the part number and applies across the full operating temperature range of –65 to +175 °C when mounted per the recommended FR4 footprint.
Does the 1N5268BUR-1/TR have a specified dynamic impedance, and how does it affect regulation stability?
Yes, the 1N5268BUR-1/TR has a maximum Zener impedance ZZT of 330 Ω at IZT = 1.5 mA. This value directly impacts output voltage variation under changing load currents; for example, a 1 mA change in Zener current induces up to 330 mV shift in regulated voltage, necessitating careful current-source design in precision references.
Is the 1N5268BUR-1/TR RoHS compliant, and what plating options are available?
The 1N5268BUR-1/TR is available in both RoHS-compliant (e3 suffix) and non-RoHS versions. The RoHS-compliant variant uses annealed matte-tin plating on end caps and is qualified per MIL-STD-750, method 2026. Commercial-grade RoHS versions are explicitly supported; military-grade versions retain tin-lead plating per specification.
How does the temperature coefficient of the 1N5268BUR-1/TR impact its use in precision reference circuits?
The 1N5268BUR-1/TR has a positive temperature coefficient of +0.098 %/°C, meaning its Zener voltage increases by ~80 mV per °C rise. In precision references, this requires either temperature-compensated biasing or pairing with negative-TC components; uncorrected, it introduces ±0.8 V drift over a 10 °C ambient swing at 82 V output.
Can the 1N5268BUR-1/TR be used in place of older axial 1N5268B-1 diodes, and what layout changes are needed?
No - the 1N5268BUR-1/TR uses a DO-213AA MELF package, while the 1N5268B-1 uses DO-35 axial leads. They are not pin-compatible or drop-in replacements. PCB layout must accommodate the cylindrical surface-mount footprint (1.6–1.7 mm diameter × 3.3–3.7 mm length) and reflow profile, not through-hole pads.
