Product details
Overview
1N751D-1 from Microsemi is a 5.1 V, ±1% tolerance, 500 mW axial-leaded silicon Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass package, qualified to JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N751D-1 datasheet, 1N751D-1 pinout, 1N751D-1 application, or 1N751D-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its tight 1% Zener voltage tolerance, low 14 Ω dynamic impedance at 49 mA, -0.030%/°C to +0.030%/°C temperature coefficient, and military-grade reliability across -65°C to +175°C operating range.
Technical Context
The 1N751D-1 operates as a reverse-biased voltage reference with nominal Zener voltage of 5.1 V at 49 mA test current (IZT), exhibiting a bipolar temperature coefficient ranging from -0.030%/°C at 25°C to +0.030%/°C at +150°C. Its internal metallurgical bond ensures stable breakdown characteristics under thermal stress.
It delivers regulated output with maximum reverse leakage of 5 µA at 2.0 V (VR), dynamic impedance of 14 Ω at IZT, and maximum Zener current of 75 mA (IZM). Thermal resistance is 250°C/W junction-to-lead (RθJL) and 300°C/W junction-to-ambient on PCB.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N751A-1 | Same 5.1 V nominal, but ±5% tolerance (vs. ±1% for 1N751D-1) | Acceptable where cost-sensitive commercial designs tolerate wider output variation | Select 1N751A-1 only if ±5% regulation accuracy suffices and JANTXV qualification is not required |
| BZX55C5V1 | Commercial-grade, ±5% tolerance, 500 mW, DO-35 - no military qualification or metallurgical bond | Suitable for consumer electronics; lacks radiation hardness and extended temperature validation | Choose BZX55C5V1 for non-critical, cost-driven applications with ambient-only temperature requirements |
Compared with 1N751A-1 and BZX55C5V1, the 1N751D-1 delivers superior accuracy, guaranteed military reliability, and inherent radiation tolerance - making it the only option for JANTXV-certified systems requiring ≤±1% voltage stability across extreme environments.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N751D-1?
The 1N751D-1 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±1%, specified per its "D" suffix in the part nomenclature. This means its actual breakdown voltage falls within 5.049 V to 5.151 V at 49 mA test current and 25°C, enabling high-accuracy voltage referencing unmatched by standard ±5% variants like the 1N751A-1.
Is the 1N751D-1 qualified to military standards?
Yes, the 1N751D-1 is qualified to JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/127. This certification covers rigorous testing for temperature cycling, mechanical shock, vibration, and long-term reliability - confirming its suitability for flight-critical and defense electronics where failure is not an option.
What is the maximum Zener current (IZM) for the 1N751D-1?
The maximum Zener current (IZM) for the 1N751D-1 is 75 mA, derived from its 500 mW power rating and 5.1 V nominal Zener voltage. This value assumes thermal equilibrium at lead temperature TL = 50°C; derating applies above that temperature per Figure 1 in the datasheet.
Does the 1N751D-1 have radiation hardness?
Yes, the 1N751D-1 is inherently radiation-hardened as documented in Microsemi MicroNote 050. Its metallurgically bonded DO-35 structure exhibits robust performance under total ionizing dose (TID) exposure, making it appropriate for low-dose space applications where single-event effects are not dominant.
What does the "D" in 1N751D-1 signify?
The "D" in 1N751D-1 denotes ±1% Zener voltage tolerance per the Microsemi part nomenclature guide. It is distinct from "A" (±5%) and "C" (±2%). The "-1" suffix indicates the DO-35 package variant, and absence of "UR" confirms it is not the MELF surface-mount version.
