Product details
Overview
1N6026UR/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 500 mW Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage of 120 V, ±5% tolerance (B-suffix), 1.0 mA test current, and dynamic impedance of 800 Ω at IZT; used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N6026UR/TR datasheet, 1N6026UR/TR pinout, 1N6026UR/TR application, or 1N6026UR/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal resistance (300 °C/W), low leakage (<0.1 µA at 91 V), RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, and DO-213AA MELF package suitability for high-reliability industrial and aerospace designs.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable output voltage across wide current (1.0 mA to 91 mA) and temperature (-65 °C to +175 °C) ranges. Its metallurgically bonded glass construction ensures hermetic sealing and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on FR4 PCBs with 1 oz copper, it exhibits 150 °C/W junction-to-end-cap thermal resistance and requires no polarity-specific layout-cathode band indicates banded end as positive terminal during Zener operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 120 V ±5% at 1.0 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback loops and clamp thresholds |
| Power Dissipation | 0.5 W at 25 °C ambient - sets maximum continuous power handling on standard FR4 board |
| Zener Impedance ZZT | 800 Ω at 1.0 mA - determines regulation stability under varying load current |
| Reverse Leakage IR | <0.1 µA at 91 V - ensures minimal standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Junction Temp Range | -65 °C to +175 °C - supports operation in extended-temperature industrial and avionics environments |
| Thermal Resistance RθJA | 300 °C/W - informs derating requirements above 25 °C ambient (see Figure 1) |
| Package | DO-213AA (MLL34/SOD80) MELF - enables automated placement and high reliability in vibration-prone systems |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AA (SOD80/MLL34) MELF glass package with two end-cap terminals; cathode identified by single black band - banded end is positive during Zener regulation. No internal leads; terminals are metallized end caps solderable per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference node for Zener conduction | Connected to lower-potential rail; forms regulated voltage drop when cathode is biased higher |
| Cathode (banded end) | Zener regulation terminal | Must be held at higher potential than anode to enter breakdown; serves as regulated output node |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZX85C120 | 500 mW, 120 V ±5%, DO-41 package (axial), RθJA = 500 °C/W | Larger footprint; less suitable for high-density SMT layouts or vibration-prone systems | Select when axial through-hole mounting is required or legacy DO-41 footprint compatibility is mandatory |
| MMBZ5265B | 350 mW, 120 V ±5%, SOT-23 package, IZT = 10 mA, ZZT = 150 Ω | Lower power rating and smaller package; higher test current shifts regulation point sensitivity | Select for space-constrained consumer electronics where 0.35 W dissipation suffices and tighter ZZT is prioritized |
Compared with BZX85C120 and MMBZ5265B, the 1N6026UR/TR offers superior thermal performance (300 °C/W vs. 500 °C/W), hermetic glass reliability, and radiation hardness - making it preferred for mission-critical industrial and aerospace voltage references where long-term stability outweighs cost or size constraints.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N6026UR/TR?
The 1N6026UR/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 120 V with ±5% tolerance, indicated by the "B" suffix in its part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This means the actual measured VZ at 1.0 mA test current falls between 114 V and 126 V across all units, ensuring predictable regulation in feedback and clamp circuits.
Is 1N6026UR/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N6026UR/TR is RoHS compliant, as confirmed by the "e3" designation in Microsemi's part numbering system and documentation. It features matte-tin plating on end caps and meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements - suitable for lead-free reflow soldering processes in commercial-grade applications.
What package type does 1N6026UR/TR use?
The 1N6026UR/TR uses the DO-213AA (also known as SOD80 or MLL34) MELF glass package - a cylindrical, surface-mount format with metallized end caps. Its dimensions are 1.60–1.70 mm diameter and 3.30–3.70 mm length, optimized for automated pick-and-place and high-reliability hermetic sealing.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1N6026UR/TR?
The maximum reverse leakage current for 1N6026UR/TR is 0.1 µA at 91 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of T4-LDS-0228-1. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal loading in high-impedance reference networks and prevents false triggering in overvoltage detection circuits.
Can 1N6026UR/TR be used in aerospace applications?
Yes, the 1N6026UR/TR supports aerospace use via optional MIL-PRF-19500 screening levels (e.g., JAN, JANTX, JANTXV prefixes). Its hermetic glass construction, radiation hardness per MicroNote 050, and -65 °C to +175 °C operating range make it suitable for flight-critical voltage regulation and protection functions when properly screened.
