Product details
Overview
1N5934BUR-1/TR from Microsemi is a 1.5 W surface-mount Zener diode in DO-213AB (MELF) glass package, rated for 24 V ±5% Zener voltage at 15.6 mA test current, with 19 Ω dynamic impedance, 1.0 µA reverse leakage at 18.2 V, and junction temperature range of –65 °C to +175 °C. It delivers stable voltage regulation in high-density power supply and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5934BUR-1/TR datasheet, 1N5934BUR-1/TR pinout, 1N5934BUR-1/TR application, or 1N5934BUR-1/TR equivalent, key selection factors include its hermetic glass MELF construction, MIL-PRF-19500 screening capability, low thermal resistance (40 °C/W junction-to-end-cap), RoHS-compliant matte tin plating, and ESD insensitivity per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020.
Technical Context
This device operates as a precision shunt voltage regulator, maintaining stable output voltage across wide current (1.0–150 mA) and temperature (–65 °C to +175 °C) ranges. Its metallurgically bonded tungsten slug structure ensures low thermal resistance and high reliability under thermal cycling.
The DO-213AB MELF package provides hermetic sealing and minimal parasitic capacitance (typ. 30 pF at 24 V), supporting high-frequency stability in feedback loops. Reverse polarity operation requires cathode band connected to higher potential - confirmed by marking and polarity definition in the datasheet.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 24 V ±5% at IZT = 15.6 mA - defines nominal regulation point with tight tolerance for precision references. |
| Power Dissipation | 1.5 W @ TEC ≤ 115 °C - supports continuous operation in thermally constrained SMT layouts with proper end-cap heatsinking. |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 19 Ω - determines regulation stiffness; lower value minimizes output voltage deviation under load transients. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1.0 µA @ VR = 18.2 V - ensures minimal quiescent current loss in low-power standby modes. |
| Junction Temperature Range | –65 °C to +175 °C - enables deployment in aerospace, downhole, and industrial environments with extreme thermal profiles. |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJEC) | 40 °C/W - allows direct thermal path modeling from junction to end cap, critical for reliability prediction in sealed assemblies. |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AB (MELF) glass package: hermetically sealed voidless hard glass body with tungsten slugs; cathode indicated by single black band; tin/lead or RoHS-compliant matte tin plating; weight ≈ 0.05 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Low-potential terminal during Zener operation | Connected to circuit ground or lower-voltage rail; carries full Zener current when regulating. |
| Cathode | High-potential terminal during Zener operation | Marked with black band; connects to input or unregulated rail; sustains reverse breakdown voltage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Metallurgically bonded internal contacts | Reduces thermal resistance by ~30% vs standard wire-bonded MELF diodes, improving power handling and lifetime under thermal stress. |
| Hermetic glass encapsulation | Eliminates moisture ingress and long-term parameter drift; qualified for high-reliability applications per source control drawings. |
| MIL-PRF-19500 screening option | Enables use in military/aerospace systems requiring tested lot traceability, burn-in, and parametric limits beyond commercial grade. |
| ESD immunity (MIL-STD-750 Method 1020) | No degradation observed after 1000 V HBM testing - supports handling in non-ESD-controlled assembly lines without added protection. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Regulation | Aerospace Reference Voltage Source |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5934B | Same electrical specs but in DO-41 axial-leaded package; no tape-and-reel; lacks MIL-PRF-19500 screening option. | Suitable only for prototyping or through-hole production; not compatible with automated SMT placement. | Select when manual assembly or legacy board redesign is required; avoid for new high-density SMT designs. |
| SMBG5934B | Same VZ, IZT, and tolerance in SMB package; RθJA = 100 °C/W (vs 120 °C/W for 1N5934BUR-1/TR); no hermetic seal. | Higher thermal performance on PCB but susceptible to humidity-induced parameter shift over time. | Prefer for cost-sensitive consumer applications where long-term drift is acceptable; avoid in sealed or high-humidity enclosures. |
Compared with 1N5934B and SMBG5934B, the 1N5934BUR-1/TR uniquely combines SMT compatibility, hermetic reliability, MIL screening readiness, and low-profile MELF geometry - making it the only choice for space-constrained, mission-critical regulation where parameter stability over 15+ years is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N5934BUR-1/TR?
The 1N5934BUR-1/TR has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, specified as 24 V at 15.6 mA test current (IZT). This tolerance is achieved via post-package sorting and is documented in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the T4-LDS-0300-1 datasheet. The "B" in the part number denotes the 5% tolerance grade per Microsemi's nomenclature.
Is 1N5934BUR-1/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the "e3" suffix in the full designation 1N5934BUR-1/TR indicates RoHS compliance with matte tin plating. Per the PART NOMENCLATURE section on page 2, "e3 = RoHS compliant", and the Mechanical and Packaging section confirms RoHS-compliant plating is available. Standard production units shipped by Aetrix Electronics carry this RoHS-compliant finish unless otherwise specified.
Can 1N5934BUR-1/TR be used in place of axial 1N5934B?
No - while electrically identical, 1N5934BUR-1/TR uses a DO-213AB MELF surface-mount package, whereas 1N5934B uses DO-41 axial-leaded packaging. They are not mechanically interchangeable. PCB layout, reflow profile, and assembly process differ significantly; substitution requires board redesign. The "UR" in 1N5934BUR-1/TR explicitly denotes the MELF variant.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for 1N5934BUR-1/TR?
The 1N5934BUR-1/TR has a steady-state power dissipation rating of 1.5 W when the end cap temperature (TEC) is maintained at ≤115 °C, and 1.25 W at TA = 25 °C on FR4 board with recommended footprint. Derating follows the curve in Figure 1 (page 4), dropping linearly to zero at 175 °C junction temperature. Thermal design must account for RθJEC = 40 °C/W.
Does 1N5934BUR-1/TR require special handling for ESD sensitivity?
No - the 1N5934BUR-1/TR is non-sensitive to ESD per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020, as stated in the Applications/Benefits section. No special ESD controls are required during handling or assembly. This is a verified characteristic of the metallurgically bonded glass structure and is independent of board-level protection schemes.
