Product details
Overview
1N5986UR-1/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 2.7 V, 5% tolerance Zener diode in DO-213AA (SOD-80/MELF) package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 25°C, with 100 mA test current, 1900 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and 75 µA max reverse leakage at 1.0 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or shunt regulator in low-power analog sensing and power supply feedback circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5986UR-1/TR datasheet, 1N5986UR-1/TR pinout, 1N5986UR-1/TR application, or 1N5986UR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (300 °C/W), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and MELF package suitability for high-reliability industrial and aerospace environments.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon junction Zener diode with metallurgically bonded end caps and hermetically sealed glass construction. Its regulation behavior is defined at IZT = 100 mA, where VZ = 2.7 V ±5%, and dynamic impedance ZZT = 1900 Ω - indicating moderate noise rejection and stable knee characteristics under nominal bias.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on FR4 PCBs with 1 oz copper, it exhibits TJ/TSTG = −65 to +175 °C operating range, RθJA = 300 °C/W, and forward voltage VF = 1.1 V @ 200 mA - confirming compatibility with standard reflow profiles and low forward conduction loss in bidirectional protection roles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 2.7 V ±5% @ IZT = 100 mA - defines precise clamping threshold for low-voltage reference applications. |
| Power Dissipation PD | 0.5 W @ TA ≤ 25 °C - sets maximum continuous power handling on standard FR4 layout. |
| Dynamic Impedance ZZT | 1900 Ω @ 100 mA - indicates voltage regulation stability under small-signal AC modulation. |
| Reverse Leakage IR | 75 µA max @ VR = 1.0 V - ensures minimal quiescent current draw in standby regulation modes. |
| Junction Temperature Range | −65 to +175 °C - supports operation in extended industrial and aerospace thermal environments. |
| Package Type | DO-213AA (SOD-80/MELF) - provides robust mechanical reliability and consistent thermal performance vs. axial DO-35. |

Pinout & Package
DO-213AA (SOD-80/MELF) glass package with two metallized end caps; cathode identified by single black band - operated with banded end positive relative to opposite end during Zener breakdown.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Zener anode connection in reverse-bias configuration | Must be held at higher potential than anode to enable regulation; polarity critical for correct clamping direction. |
| Anode (unbanded end) | Zener cathode connection in reverse-bias configuration | Reference node or ground return path; forms low-impedance sink for excess current during overvoltage events. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX55C2V7 | Same 2.7 V ±5%, but DO-35 axial package; higher RθJA = 500 °C/W; no MIL-PRF-19500 screening option. | Limited to non-vibration-sensitive consumer/industrial PCBs; unsuitable for high-reliability MELF footprint designs. | Select only if legacy through-hole assembly or cost-driven non-military use case requires axial form factor. |
| 1N5223B | 2.7 V ±5%, DO-35 package; 0.5 W rating; ZZT = 2000 Ω @ 20 mA - lower test current yields less stable regulation at higher currents. | Not recommended for >50 mA load conditions due to higher dynamic impedance drift above 20 mA. | Prefer 1N5986UR-1/TR when operating near 100 mA or requiring tighter thermal management on FR4. |
Compared with BZX55C2V7 and 1N5223B, the 1N5986UR-1/TR delivers superior thermal performance (RθJA = 300 °C/W), MELF mechanical robustness, and direct path to military screening - making it optimal for high-stability, surface-mount, and mission-critical applications.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance and test condition for the 1N5986UR-1/TR?
The 1N5986UR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 2.7 V with ±5% tolerance, measured at a test current IZT of 100 mA and lead temperature of 30 °C. This tolerance is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range of −65 to +175 °C, and the "B" suffix in the part number explicitly denotes the 5% tolerance grade per Microsemi's nomenclature.
Is the 1N5986UR-1/TR RoHS compliant, and what plating does it use?
Yes, the 1N5986UR-1/TR is RoHS compliant (e3 suffix), featuring matte-tin plating on both end caps. This plating meets MIL-STD-750, Method 2026 for solderability and is qualified for lead-free reflow processes up to 260 °C for 10 seconds, ensuring reliable assembly on modern PCBs without tin whisker risk.
What is the maximum DC Zener current IZM for the 1N5986UR-1/TR, and how is it calculated?
The maximum DC Zener current IZM for the 1N5986UR-1/TR is 185 mA, derived from the formula IZM = PD / VZM, where PD = 0.5 W and VZM = 2.835 V (upper limit of 2.7 V ±5%). This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the T4-LDS-0228-1 datasheet and reflects worst-case power handling at the high end of voltage tolerance.
How does the DO-213AA package of the 1N5986UR-1/TR compare thermally to axial DO-35 alternatives?
The DO-213AA package of the 1N5986UR-1/TR achieves RθJA = 300 °C/W on FR4 with 1 oz copper, significantly better than typical DO-35 parts (e.g., ~500 °C/W). This 40% thermal improvement results from superior end-cap-to-PCB heat transfer in the MELF geometry and enables higher sustained power dissipation without derating in compact layouts.
Does the 1N5986UR-1/TR require external ESD protection in system design?
No, the 1N5986UR-1/TR is inherently ESD-insensitive per MIL-STD-750, Method 1020, and does not require external TVS or series resistors for handling or board-level ESD protection. This characteristic is verified in Microsemi's qualification testing and documented in the Applications/Benefits section of the datasheet.
