Product details
Overview
1N5986UR/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 2.7 V, 5% tolerance Zener diode in DO-213AA (SOD80/MLL34) 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 circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5986UR/TR datasheet, 1N5986UR/TR pinout, 1N5986UR/TR application, or 1N5986UR/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.7 V nominal Zener voltage, 5% tolerance, DO-213AA thermal resistance (RθJA = 300 °C/W), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and suitability for commercial-grade voltage stabilization under −65 to +175 °C junction temperature range.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon planar Zener diode with metallurgically bonded end caps, designed for stable reverse-bias regulation across wide temperature and current ranges. Its breakdown behavior is characterized by a 100 mA test current (IZT) and a knee current (IZK) of 0.25 mA, enabling reliable operation down to low-current biasing.
The DO-213AA glass-encapsulated MELF package provides hermetic sealing and minimal parasitic capacitance (typical <1 pF at low frequencies), supporting high-frequency stability and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050. Thermal performance is defined for FR4 PCB mounting with 1 oz copper and specified footprint.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N5223BTR | 2.5 V nominal, 5% tolerance, DO-35 axial package, 500 mW rating | Requires through-hole PCB layout and manual assembly; higher RθJA (~500 °C/W) | Select when legacy board compatibility or axial mounting is required |
| BZX55-C2V7-TR | 2.7 V nominal, 5% tolerance, DO-35 package, 500 mW, Pro Electron compliant | Same electrical specs but non-MIL-qualified; no radiation hardness or MIL-PRF-19500 screening options | Select for cost-sensitive commercial designs without military or space requirements |
Compared with 1N5986UR/TR, 1N5223BTR offers identical power and tolerance but lacks MELF packaging advantages and radiation hardening; BZX55-C2V7-TR matches voltage and tolerance but omits high-reliability screening and hermetic glass construction, making it unsuitable for mission-critical environments.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N5986UR/TR?
The 1N5986UR/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 2.7 V with a ±5% tolerance, measured at 100 mA test current (IZT). This means the actual regulated voltage falls between 2.565 V and 2.835 V under standard operating conditions, ensuring predictable performance in precision reference applications.
Is the 1N5986UR/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N5986UR/TR is RoHS compliant with matte-tin plating on its end caps, as indicated by the "e3" suffix in Microsemi's nomenclature system. This compliance applies only to commercial-grade versions and meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements for restricted substances.
What package type does the 1N5986UR/TR use, and what are its key mechanical features?
The 1N5986UR/TR uses the DO-213AA (SOD80/MLL34) MELF glass package: a hermetically sealed cylindrical body with metallurgically bonded end caps, cathode band marking, and 0.063–0.067 inch diameter. Its design supports automated SMT placement and provides low parasitic capacitance and radiation hardness.
What is the maximum power dissipation and thermal resistance of the 1N5986UR/TR?
The 1N5986UR/TR is rated for 0.5 W power dissipation at 25°C ambient temperature, with thermal resistance junction-to-ambient (RθJA) of 300 °C/W when mounted on FR4 PCB with 1 oz copper and recommended footprint. Derating begins above 25°C per the published power derating curve.
Does the 1N5986UR/TR have radiation-hardened characteristics?
Yes, the 1N5986UR/TR exhibits inherent radiation hardness validated per Microsemi MicroNote 050, due to its silicon planar Zener structure and hermetic DO-213AA packaging. This makes it suitable for low-dose-rate space and nuclear instrumentation applications where TID resilience is required.
