Product details
Overview
1N752A/TR from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 5.6 V ±5% axial-leaded Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass package, qualified to JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, with dynamic impedance of 8 Ω at 50 mA and temperature coefficient of –0.028%/°C to +0.036%/°C, used for precision voltage regulation in military power supplies and analog reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N752A/TR datasheet, 1N752A/TR pinout, 1N752A/TR application, or 1N752A/TR equivalent, key selection factors include its 5.6 V nominal Zener voltage, 8 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT = 50 mA, ±5% tolerance, DO-35 mechanical form factor, and JANTX-level qualification for high-reliability environments.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased voltage reference, maintaining stable 5.6 V regulation across current range 5–50 mA with minimal capacitance and low thermal resistance (250 °C/W junction-to-lead). Its metallurgical bond construction ensures reliability under thermal cycling and radiation exposure.
It exhibits a dual-signature temperature coefficient (–0.028%/°C to +0.036%/°C), indicating optimized compensation near room temperature, and meets MIL-STD-750 ESD immunity requirements without external protection. The cathode band identifies polarity for proper biasing in shunt regulator configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage | 5.6 V at IZT = 50 mA - defines primary regulation setpoint for feedback and reference circuits |
| Zener Tolerance | ±5% - establishes worst-case output voltage spread (5.32–5.88 V) in production designs |
| Dynamic Impedance | 8 Ω at IZT = 50 mA - determines load regulation error: ~0.4 V change per 50 mA current shift |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW at TL = 50°C - sets maximum continuous DC power before thermal derating begins |
| Temp Coefficient αVZ | –0.028%/°C to +0.036%/°C - enables stable operation across –65°C to +175°C ambient range |
| Reverse Leakage | 5 µA max at VR = 2.5 V - ensures low quiescent current in standby or low-power reference nodes |
| Junction Temp Range | –65°C to +175°C - supports operation in aerospace, downhole, and engine-control environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4734A | 5.6 V ±5%, 1 W rating, DO-41 package, higher thermal resistance (500 °C/W) | Commercial-grade only; not MIL-qualified; unsuitable for JANTX-requiring programs | Select when cost-sensitive commercial designs need higher power margin and board space allows larger DO-41 footprint |
| MMBZ5231B | 5.6 V ±5%, 225 mW SOT-23 package, 17 Ω ZZT, no MIL qualification | Surface-mount only; lower power and higher impedance limit use in precision analog references | Select for space-constrained PCBs where reflow compatibility and small size outweigh military reliability needs |
Compared with 1N752A/TR, 1N4734A offers higher power but lacks military screening and hermetic sealing, while MMBZ5231B sacrifices regulation stability and ruggedness for miniaturization-making 1N752A/TR the optimal choice for high-reliability, high-temp, and radiation-tolerant applications.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and test current for the 1N752A/TR?
The 1N752A/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 5.6 V measured at a test current (IZT) of 50 mA. This value is specified at 25°C with a ±5% tolerance, and the device maintains regulation across its rated current range of 5–50 mA. The 1N752A/TR achieves stable performance due to its metallurgically bonded construction and tight thermal design.
Is the 1N752A/TR suitable for high-temperature applications?
Yes, the 1N752A/TR is rated for junction temperatures from –65°C to +175°C and is qualified to JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/127. Its hermetic DO-35 glass package and internal metallurgical bond ensure parametric stability and reliability in downhole, engine bay, and avionics environments. The 1N752A/TR sustains regulation integrity even after prolonged exposure to 175°C junction temperature.
Does the 1N752A/TR have RoHS compliance?
The "TR" suffix in 1N752A/TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296; RoHS compliance is available only on commercial-grade versions (marked with "e3") and not on JANTX-qualified units like the 1N752A/TR. The 1N752A/TR uses traditional tin-lead plating per MIL-STD-750 and is intended for applications where military screening takes precedence over RoHS requirements.
What is the dynamic impedance of the 1N752A/TR and why does it matter?
The 1N752A/TR has a maximum dynamic impedance (ZZT) of 8 Ω at IZT = 50 mA. This low value means the output voltage varies less than 0.4 V for a 50 mA load step, making it suitable for precision analog references and feedback loops. In circuits using the 1N752A/TR, this impedance directly impacts regulation accuracy under varying current demand.
How is polarity marked on the 1N752A/TR package?
The cathode of the 1N752A/TR is identified by a distinct color band on the glass DO-35 body; the diode must be operated with the banded end positive relative to the anode to achieve Zener breakdown regulation. This marking is standardized across the 1N7xxA series and verified per MIL-STD-750 method 2026 for solderability and visual inspection.
