Product details
Overview
1N6017UR/TR from Microsemi is a 51 V, 500 mW surface-mount Zener diode in DO-213AA (MLL34/SOD80) MELF package, rated for ±5% voltage tolerance at 2 mA test current, with 180 Ω dynamic impedance and 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 39 V, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply feedback loops and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N6017UR/TR datasheet, 1N6017UR/TR pinout, 1N6017UR/TR application, or 1N6017UR/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (150 °C/W junction-to-end cap), low capacitance (<2 pF typical), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and MIL-PRF-19500 screening compatibility for high-reliability designs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference by maintaining a stable 51 V across its terminals under reverse-biased breakdown conditions, with regulation validated at IZT = 2 mA and specified up to IZM = 39 mA maximum DC current. Its DO-213AA glass MELF construction provides hermetic sealing and inherent radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
The diode exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.096 %/°C and minimal capacitance (typical <2 pF), enabling stable performance across -65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range while supporting low-noise analog references and overvoltage clamping in compact layouts.
