Product details
Overview
1N6003UR-1/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 500 mW Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 13 V, ±5% tolerance (B-suffix), 5 mA test current, and 600 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT; used for precision voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N6003UR-1/TR datasheet, 1N6003UR-1/TR pinout, 1N6003UR-1/TR application, or 1N6003UR-1/TR equivalent, key selection factors include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (300 °C/W), DO-213AA MELF package compatibility, and low leakage (<0.1 µA at 10.4 V).
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference in reverse breakdown mode, with regulation defined at IZT = 5 mA and VZ = 13 V. Its DO-213AA glass MELF package enables stable thermal performance and hermetic reliability.
It exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.075 %/°C and maintains ≤0.1 µA reverse leakage at rated voltage, supporting stable biasing across -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX84-C13 | 300 mW SOT-23 package; 13 V ±5%; ZZT = 30 Ω at 5 mA - lower impedance but lower power rating | Suitable for low-power portable electronics; not rated for >125 °C ambient or high-reliability screening | Select when board space is constrained and thermal load is <300 mW; verify derating at elevated temperatures. |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N6003UR-1/TR?
The 1N6003UR-1/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 13 V with ±5% tolerance, indicated by the "B" suffix in its part nomenclature per Microsemi's T4-LDS-0228-1 datasheet. This means the actual VZ falls between 12.35 V and 13.65 V when measured at 5 mA test current and 30 °C lead temperature. The 1N6003UR-1/TR is specified to maintain this tolerance across its full operating temperature range.
Does 1N6003UR-1/TR support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, the 1N6003UR-1/TR features RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating on its end caps and is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering up to 260 °C for 10 seconds per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. Its DO-213AA glass package withstands standard JEDEC J-STD-020 profiles, and the 1N6003UR-1/TR is explicitly designated for commercial-grade RoHS compliance in Microsemi documentation.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1N6003UR-1/TR?
The maximum reverse leakage current for 1N6003UR-1/TR is 0.1 µA at 10.4 V (80% of nominal VZ), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the T4-LDS-0228-1 datasheet. This low leakage ensures minimal error in high-impedance reference circuits and remains stable across the -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range of the 1N6003UR-1/TR.
Can 1N6003UR-1/TR be used in high-reliability military applications?
Yes - while the base 1N6003UR-1/TR is a commercial-grade part, Microsemi offers screened versions compliant with MIL-PRF-19500 (e.g., JAN, JANTX, JANTXV prefixes) for the same 1N6003 family. These variants undergo rigorous environmental and electrical testing, and the 1N6003UR-1/TR's underlying DO-213AA construction and internal metallurgical bonds make it suitable for qualification into high-reliability programs when ordered with appropriate screening suffixes.
What is the thermal resistance of 1N6003UR-1/TR, and how does it affect PCB layout?
The 1N6003UR-1/TR has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 300 °C/W when mounted on a standard FR4 board with 1 oz copper and Microsemi's recommended footprint. This value requires careful PCB layout: adequate copper area around both end-cap pads and short thermal paths are essential to avoid exceeding the 175 °C max junction temperature at 500 mW dissipation. Derating begins above 25 °C ambient, per Figure 1 in the 1N6003UR-1/TR datasheet.
