Product details
Overview
1N756AUR-1/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed, surface-mount silicon zener diode with a nominal zener voltage of 8.2 V ±5%, 20 mA test current, 8 Ω dynamic impedance at 20 mA, 1 µA maximum reverse leakage at 6.0 V, and 50 mA maximum zener current. It operates in precision voltage regulation for low-power analog reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N756AUR-1/TR datasheet, 1N756AUR-1/TR pinout, 1N756AUR-1/TR application, or 1N756AUR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include zener tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (100 °C/W), MELF DO-213AA package compatibility, and MIL-PRF-19500/127 qualification for high-reliability aerospace and defense systems.
Technical Context
This device functions as a two-terminal voltage reference diode operating in reverse breakdown mode. Its zener voltage is specified at 25°C ambient with 20 mA test current and exhibits 8 Ω dynamic impedance under that condition, enabling stable regulation in low-noise analog supply rails.
The 1N756AUR-1/TR uses a metallurgically bonded, hermetically sealed glass DO-213AA (MELF/SOD-80/LL34) package with tin/lead termination and is rated for operation from –65°C to +175°C, supporting high-temperature avionics and downhole instrumentation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage | 8.2 V ±5% @ 20 mA - defines precise DC reference level for feedback loops and biasing |
| Zener Impedance | 8 Ω @ 20 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Reverse Leakage | ≤1 µA @ 6.0 V - guarantees low standby power loss in always-on reference circuits |
| Max Power Dissipation | 500 mW @ TEC = +125°C - sets thermal design margin for PCB trace width and copper area |
| Operating Temp Range | –65°C to +175°C - enables deployment in extreme-environment military and oilfield electronics |
| Package | DO-213AA (MELF) - provides robust mechanical integrity and hermetic sealing for long-term reliability |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AA (MELF) hermetically sealed glass package with axial symmetry; cathode identified by single black band. No discrete pins - terminals are metallized end caps; polarity must be observed during placement (cathode end positive in regulation mode).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Current sink terminal in reverse-bias regulation | Connected to lower-potential node (e.g., ground or return path) during zener operation |
| Cathode (banded end) | Reference voltage output terminal | Delivers stable 8.2 V relative to anode; must be routed with low-inductance traces for noise-sensitive references |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MIL-PRF-19500/127 Qualified | Meets stringent screening, testing, and traceability requirements for space- and defense-critical applications |
| Hermetic Glass Encapsulation | Prevents moisture ingress and parameter drift over decades of operation in humid or corrosive environments |
| ±5% Zener Tolerance (A suffix) | Reduces calibration overhead in production test vs. ±10% standard parts, improving yield in precision analog assemblies |
| 100 °C/W Junction-to-Case Thermal Resistance | Enables thermal modeling for board-level reliability prediction without forced airflow or heatsinking |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N756A-1 (DO-35) | Same electrical specs but axial leaded DO-35 package; no hermetic seal; higher thermal resistance (200 °C/W) | Not suitable for high-humidity or vacuum environments; limited to commercial-grade PCB assembly | Select only for cost-sensitive terrestrial industrial controls where MIL-spec reliability is not required |
| BZX84-C8V2 (SOT-23) | ±5% tolerance, 8.2 V, but plastic package; 150 °C max operating temp; 15 Ω zener impedance | Lacks hermeticity and extended temperature range; unsuitable for aerospace or downhole use | Use for consumer or automotive infotainment systems where size and cost outweigh long-term stability needs |
Compared with 1N756A-1 and BZX84-C8V2, the 1N756AUR-1/TR delivers superior long-term stability, hermetic reliability, and extended temperature capability-critical for mission-critical systems where field failure is unacceptable.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance of the 1N756AUR-1/TR?
The 1N756AUR-1/TR has a nominal zener voltage of 8.2 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix per manufacturer documentation. This tighter tolerance reduces calibration burden in precision analog circuits compared to standard ±10% zeners. The 1N756AUR-1/TR is tested at 20 mA and 25°C ambient, and its voltage remains stable across its full operating temperature range.
Is the 1N756AUR-1/TR hermetically sealed?
Yes, the 1N756AUR-1/TR uses a hermetically sealed DO-213AA glass package, ensuring long-term parameter stability in high-humidity, vacuum, or corrosive environments. This hermetic construction is a key requirement for MIL-PRF-19500/127 qualification and distinguishes the 1N756AUR-1/TR from plastic-packaged alternatives like the BZX84-C8V2. The 1N756AUR-1/TR maintains specification integrity over decades of field operation.
What is the maximum operating temperature for the 1N756AUR-1/TR?
The 1N756AUR-1/TR is rated for continuous operation from –65°C to +175°C, making it suitable for extreme-environment applications such as downhole oilfield tools and jet engine control electronics. Its thermal resistance is 100 °C/W at zero lead length, and power derating begins above +125°C at 10 mW/°C. This wide range is confirmed in the official Microsemi datasheet for the 1N756AUR-1/TR.
Does the 1N756AUR-1/TR have a defined pinout or polarity marking?
Yes - the 1N756AUR-1/TR is a two-terminal axial device in DO-213AA (MELF) format, with polarity marked by a single black cathode band on one end cap. The banded (cathode) end must be held at higher potential than the unbanded (anode) end during zener operation. Unlike leaded diodes, the 1N756AUR-1/TR has no leads; terminals are metallized end caps, and orientation is critical for correct circuit function.
What does the "UR-1/TR" suffix indicate in 1N756AUR-1/TR?
The "UR-1/TR" suffix denotes a surface-mount, tape-and-reel packaged version of the 1N756AUR-1/TR in DO-213AA (MELF) configuration, compliant with MIL-PRF-19500/127. "UR" identifies the hermetic glass MELF variant; "-1" indicates JAN-class screening; "TR" specifies tape-and-reel packaging for automated placement. This distinguishes it from through-hole versions like 1N756A-1 and ensures consistent handling in high-reliability SMT lines.
