Product details
Overview
1N6023UR/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 500 mW Zener diode in DO-213AA (MLL34/SOD80) MELF package, rated for 91 V nominal Zener voltage at 2.0 mA test current, with ±5% tolerance (B suffix), 300 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT, and maximum reverse leakage of 0.1 µA at 73 V. It regulates voltage in precision reference and overvoltage protection circuits across industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1N6023UR/TR datasheet, 1N6023UR/TR pinout, 1N6023UR/TR application, or 1N6023UR/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (300 °C/W junction-to-ambient), low leakage (<0.1 µA), radiation-hardened construction, and RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating on commercial-grade units.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage reference in reverse-biased breakdown mode, with regulation defined at IZT = 2.0 mA and VZ = 91 V. Its DO-213AA glass MELF package provides hermetic sealing and metallurgical bonding for high reliability under thermal cycling and radiation exposure.
It exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.099 %/°C and typical capacitance below 12 pF, enabling stable performance in low-noise analog references and ESD-robust input protection stages where minimal parasitic capacitance is critical.

Pinout & Package
DO-213AA (MLL34/SOD80) is a cylindrical glass MELF package with two metallized end caps. Polarity is marked by a single cathode band; the banded end is the cathode (positive terminal during Zener operation). No discrete pins-terminals are solderable end caps per MIL-STD-750, method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode End Cap | Zener Anode Connection Point | Connected to higher-potential node in reverse-bias configuration; carries full Zener current during regulation |
| Anode End Cap | Zener Cathode Connection Point | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., ground or return); forms reference potential for regulated output |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N6023B-TR | Same 91 V/±5%/0.5 W specs but in axial DO-35 (DO204AH) package; no RoHS option; higher RθJA (350 °C/W) | Requires through-hole PCB assembly; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts or automated pick-and-place | Select when legacy board compatibility or manual repairability outweighs SMT efficiency and thermal performance. |
| BZX85C91-TR | 91 V/±5%/1.3 W in DO-41; higher power but larger footprint; 500 Ω ZZT; not radiation-hardened | Supports higher surge energy clamping but lacks hermetic seal and radiation tolerance for aerospace use | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial power supplies where radiation hardness and extreme temperature are not required. |
Compared with 1N6023UR/TR, 1N6023B-TR offers identical electrical specs but inferior thermal performance and no RoHS compliance, while BZX85C91-TR trades radiation hardness and compact MELF form factor for higher power and lower unit cost in non-critical environments.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N6023UR/TR?
The 1N6023UR/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 91 V with a ±5% tolerance, indicated by the "B" suffix in its part nomenclature. This means the actual measured VZ at 2.0 mA test current falls between 86.45 V and 95.55 V under standard conditions, ensuring predictable regulation in feedback and protection circuits.
Is the 1N6023UR/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N6023UR/TR is RoHS compliant, as confirmed by the "e3" RoHS designation in its full part number and specification in the Microsemi datasheet. It features matte-tin plating on the DO-213AA end caps and is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering at 260 °C for 10 seconds.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for the 1N6023UR/TR?
The 1N6023UR/TR has a maximum reverse leakage current of 0.1 µA at 73 V (80% of nominal 91 V), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This ultra-low leakage supports high-impedance biasing and precision reference applications without introducing measurable error.
Does the 1N6023UR/TR have radiation-hardened properties?
Yes, the 1N6023UR/TR is inherently radiation-hardened per Microsemi MicroNote 050, due to its hermetically sealed glass DO-213AA construction and material selection. It is qualified for use in space and nuclear environments where total ionizing dose (TID) resilience is required.
What is the thermal resistance of the 1N6023UR/TR on an FR4 PCB?
The 1N6023UR/TR has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 300 °C/W when mounted on a standard FR4 PCB with 1 oz copper and the recommended footprint. This value governs power derating above 25 °C ambient and must be applied in thermal design calculations.
