Product details
Overview
1N5952BUR-1/TR from Microsemi is a 130 V, 1.5 W surface-mount Zener diode in DO-213AB (MELF) glass package, with 5% voltage tolerance, 2.9 Ω dynamic impedance at 2.9 mA test current, and rated for -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature. It provides precision voltage regulation in high-density power supply feedback loops and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5952BUR-1/TR datasheet, 1N5952BUR-1/TR pinout, 1N5952BUR-1/TR application, or 1N5952BUR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, low dynamic impedance at low test current, hermetic glass packaging for reliability, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly under 260 °C reflow.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased voltage reference, maintaining stable 130 V regulation across 11 mA to 11 mA Zener current range (IZM = 11 mA), with specified knee current IZK = 0.25 mA and knee impedance ZZK = 450 Ω. Its metallurgically bonded tungsten slug construction ensures low thermal resistance (RθJEC = 40 °C/W) and enhanced reliability under thermal cycling.
The DO-213AB MELF package enables low parasitic capacitance (typ. 34 pF at 130 V per Figure 2) and ESD immunity per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020. It is screened to MIL-PRF-19500 requirements when ordered with appropriate reliability suffixes and supports RoHS-compliant matte tin plating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 130 V ±5% at IZT = 2.9 mA - defines regulated output voltage in feedback networks |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 1.5 W @ TEC ≤ 115 °C - sets maximum continuous power handling on end cap |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 2.9 Ω at IZT = 2.9 mA - determines regulation stability under load transients |
| Maximum Zener Current (IZM) | 11 mA - limits safe DC operating current to avoid thermal runaway |
| Junction Temperature Range | -65 °C to +175 °C - enables operation in aerospace, downhole, and industrial environments |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 1.0 µA @ VR = 100 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby protection circuits |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.2 V max @ IF = 200 mA - defines conduction loss if used in forward-biased clamping |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AB (MELF) glass package: hermetically sealed cylindrical body with metallurgically bonded tungsten slugs; cathode indicated by single band; leadless, symmetric terminals; weight ≈ 0.05 g; dimensions BD = 2.39–2.67 mm, BL = 4.80–5.21 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Positive terminal in forward bias; connected to ground or low-side reference in Zener regulation | Provides return path for Zener current; must be routed with low-inductance trace in high-speed protection |
| Cathode | Negative terminal in forward bias; connected to regulated node in reverse-bias Zener operation | Banded end - must be held at higher potential than anode to enable breakdown; polarity-critical for correct regulation |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5952B-TR | Same 130 V/1.5 W spec, but in DO-41 axial package; no MELF geometry or hermetic glass | Lacks low-parasitic performance and high-reliability qualification; unsuitable for SMT or harsh-environment use | Select only for through-hole prototyping or legacy board rework where footprint permits |
| SMBG5952B | Same electrical specs in SMB package; higher RθJA (120 °C/W vs 40 °C/W), non-hermetic epoxy body | Lower thermal performance and reduced long-term stability; not qualified to MIL-PRF-19500 | Choose for cost-sensitive commercial designs where SMT compatibility is required but hermeticity is not critical |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N5952BUR-1/TR?
The 1N5952BUR-1/TR has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, meaning its nominal 130 V regulation falls within 123.5 V to 136.5 V at IZT = 2.9 mA and TEC = 30 °C. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of Microsemi's T4-LDS-0300-1 datasheet and applies to all units shipped with the "B" suffix in the nomenclature.
Is 1N5952BUR-1/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N5952BUR-1/TR is RoHS compliant, as indicated by the "e3" suffix in alternate nomenclature (e.g., 1N5952BUR-1(e3)) and explicitly stated in the FEATURES section of the datasheet. The device uses matte tin plating over copper terminations and meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements without lead, mercury, cadmium, or hexavalent chromium above threshold limits.
What does the "UR-1" in 1N5952BUR-1/TR signify?
The "UR-1" denotes Microsemi's metallurgically bonded glass MELF package (DO-213AB) with commercial reliability level and standard screening. Per the PART NOMENCLATURE table, "UR" identifies the MELF surface-mount variant, while "-1" specifies the base reliability grade; the "TR" suffix added externally indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481-B standard with 12 mm carrier tape.
Can 1N5952BUR-1/TR replace 1N5952B-TR in existing designs?
No, 1N5952BUR-1/TR cannot directly replace 1N5952B-TR due to fundamental package differences: the former uses DO-213AB (MELF) while the latter uses DO-41 axial. Their footprints, thermal paths, and mounting methods are incompatible. Redesign of PCB layout, solder stencil, and thermal management is required to migrate from through-hole to surface-mount MELF geometry.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for 1N5952BUR-1/TR at 25 °C ambient?
The 1N5952BUR-1/TR has a steady-state power dissipation rating of 1.25 W at TA = 25 °C when mounted on FR4 with 1 oz copper, as specified in the MAXIMUM RATINGS table. This derated value reflects ambient-convection limitations versus the 1.5 W rating achievable at TEC ≤ 115 °C, emphasizing the need for proper end-cap thermal coupling in high-power applications.
