It delivers stable voltage regulation in high-density power supply rails and precision reference circuits across industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5936BUR-1/TR datasheet, 1N5936BUR-1/TR pinout, 1N5936BUR-1/TR application, or 1N5936BUR-1/TR equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, MIL-PRF-19500 screening options, thermal resistance data (RθJA = 120 °C/W), hermetic glass packaging details, and RoHS-compliant variants - all critical for aerospace, medical, and high-reliability embedded designs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage regulator in reverse-bias breakdown mode, with Zener voltage specified at TEC = 30 °C and measured 90 seconds after DC current application. Its metallurgically bonded tungsten slugs and voidless glass seal ensure low thermal resistance (RθJEC = 40 °C/W) and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
It exhibits 28 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) at IZT = 12.5 mA and maintains ≤1.0 µA reverse leakage (IR) up to 22.8 V, enabling stable regulation under varying load and temperature conditions. Capacitance is characterized per Figure 2 and scales inversely with Zener voltage.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5936B-TP (Micro Commercial) | Same 30 V ±5%, DO-213AB package, but rated 1.0 W (not 1.5 W); RθJA = 150 °C/W; no MIL-PRF-19500 screening option. | Limited to lower-power consumer-grade supplies; unsuitable for sustained 1.5 W dissipation or high-reliability screening programs. | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-critical commercial applications where full 1.5 W rating and hermeticity are unnecessary. |
| SMBG5936B (ON Semiconductor) | 30 V ±5%, SMB package (surface-mount tabbed), 1.5 W rating, but RθJA = 100 °C/W on FR4; non-hermetic epoxy; no radiation hardness documentation. | Better thermal performance on large pads, but lacks hermetic seal and radiation tolerance - not qualified for aerospace or medical use. | Prefer for high-volume industrial controls where PCB area is constrained but radiation or long-term reliability is not mandated. |
Compared with 1N5936BUR-1/TR, the 1N5936B-TP offers lower cost but sacrifices 33% power headroom and screening capability, while the SMBG5936B trades hermetic reliability for improved thermal pad conduction - making the 1N5936BUR-1/TR uniquely suited for mission-critical, high-temperature, or radiation-exposed environments.

Yes, the 1N5936BUR-1/TR is RoHS compliant, denoted by the "e3" suffix in its full nomenclature (1N5936BUR-1 e3). The "TR" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481-B standard using 12 mm carrier tape - distinct from RoHS coding, which resides in the reliability level field.
Does 1N5936BUR-1/TR support MIL-PRF-19500 screening, and what does that entail?
Yes, 1N5936BUR-1/TR supports screening per MIL-PRF-19500, including temperature cycling, steady-state life testing, and hermeticity validation. Screening is optional and specified via reliability level codes (e.g., MQ, MX) in the part nomenclature - not included in the base 1N5936BUR-1/TR designation but available upon order configuration.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1N5936BUR-1/TR, and at what voltage is it specified?
The maximum reverse leakage current (IR) for 1N5936BUR-1/TR is 1.0 µA, specified at a reverse voltage (VR) of 22.8 V - which equals 76% of its nominal Zener voltage (30 V). This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and confirms low standby power consumption in shunt regulator topologies.
How does the DO-213AB (MELF) package of 1N5936BUR-1/TR compare thermally to axial DO-41 or tabbed SMB packages?
The DO-213AB package of 1N5936BUR-1/TR achieves RθJA = 120 °C/W on FR4 (1 oz Cu), higher than SMB variants (~100 °C/W) but lower than DO-41 axial parts (~150 °C/W). Its metallurgically bonded tungsten slugs yield RθJEC = 40 °C/W - superior to both, enabling more efficient heat transfer to end caps or heatsinks in compact layouts.
