Product details
Overview
1N5529BUR-1/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 4.3 V Zener diode in DO-213AA (SOD-80/MELF) package, rated for 500 mW steady-state power dissipation, with ±5% voltage tolerance, 22 Ω dynamic impedance at 20 mA test current, and maximum reverse leakage of 5 µA at 0.95 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or shunt regulator in low-power analog monitoring circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5529BUR-1/TR datasheet, 1N5529BUR-1/TR pinout, 1N5529BUR-1/TR application, or 1N5529BUR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage stability over temperature (±0.055%/°C), hermetically sealed glass MELF construction, RoHS-compliant commercial-grade availability, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly per EIA-481-B tape-and-reel packaging.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse-biased breakdown mode to maintain a stable 4.3 V reference across load variations from 0.25 mA to 20 mA. Its metallurgically bonded glass structure ensures low thermal resistance (100 °C/W junction-to-end-cap) and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
The 1N5529BUR-1/TR exhibits minimal capacitance (~2.5 pF typical), low forward voltage (≤1.1 V @ 200 mA), and is non-sensitive to ESD per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - enabling use in noise-critical sensor biasing and precision feedback paths without added filtering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4733A (ON Semiconductor) | Same 5.1 V nominal rating but 1 W power rating; DO-41 axial package; ±5% tolerance; 17 Ω ZZT | Requires through-hole PCB layout; higher power capability suits higher-current regulators | Select 1N4733A only if board space permits axial mounting and >500 mW dissipation is needed |
| BZX55C4V3 (Vishay) | Same 4.3 V, ±5%, DO-35 package; 22 Ω ZZT; 5 µA IR; but plastic encapsulation, not hermetic glass | Lacks radiation hardness and long-term humidity resistance; lower cost for consumer-grade designs | Choose BZX55C4V3 for cost-sensitive commercial products where hermeticity and radiation tolerance are not required |
Compared with 1N5529BUR-1/TR, the 1N4733A offers higher power but incompatible packaging, while the BZX55C4V3 matches electrical specs but sacrifices hermetic reliability and radiation performance - making 1N5529BUR-1/TR optimal for mission-critical SMT applications demanding long-term stability.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N5529BUR-1/TR?
The 1N5529BUR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 4.3 V with a ±5% tolerance, corresponding to the "B" suffix in its nomenclature. This means the actual measured VZ falls between 4.085 V and 4.515 V at 20 mA test current and 25 °C ambient temperature, as verified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the Microsemi datasheet T4-LDS-0232-1.
Is 1N5529BUR-1/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N5529BUR-1/TR is RoHS compliant (designated by the "e3" suffix in full part number variants), but only in commercial-grade versions. The RoHS-compliant annealed matte-tin plating meets lead-free soldering requirements and is qualified per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026, as stated in the Mechanical and Packaging section of the datasheet.
What is the maximum power dissipation of 1N5529BUR-1/TR and under what conditions?
The 1N5529BUR-1/TR has a steady-state power dissipation rating of 0.5 W. This applies when the end cap temperature remains below 125 °C or ambient temperature stays below 50 °C on an FR4 PCB with 1 oz copper and the recommended footprint, as defined in the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of the Microsemi datasheet.
Does 1N5529BUR-1/TR require derating at elevated temperatures?
Yes, the 1N5529BUR-1/TR must be derated linearly above 50 °C ambient temperature, following the curve in Figure 2 of the datasheet. At 100 °C ambient, its usable power drops to approximately 0.25 W, and it reaches zero dissipation at 150 °C - a direct consequence of its 250 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard FR4 layout.
Can 1N5529BUR-1/TR be used in radiation-intensive environments?
Yes, the 1N5529BUR-1/TR is inherently radiation hard per Microsemi MicroNote 050, validated for total ionizing dose (TID) resilience beyond 100 krad(Si). This stems from its metallurgically bonded glass construction and process controls, making it suitable for satellite power subsystems and nuclear instrumentation where parametric stability under irradiation is mandatory.
