Product details
Overview
1N914UR/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed glass MELF surface-mount switching diode qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/116 (JAN/JANTX/JANTXV levels), featuring 5 ns reverse recovery time, 75 V working peak reverse voltage, and 4.0 pF capacitance at 0 V - deployed in high-frequency data line steering and RS-232 interface protection.
For engineers reviewing the 1N914UR/TR datasheet, 1N914UR/TR pinout, 1N914UR/TR application, or 1N914UR/TR equivalent, this page delivers verified package dimensions, military-grade qualification status, low-capacitance performance metrics, thermal resistance values, and RoHS-compliant commercial variants for high-reliability signal routing design.
Technical Context
This diode employs metallurgically bonded double-plug construction in a DO-213AA glass MELF package, enabling stable operation from −65 °C to +175 °C with junction-to-endcap thermal resistance of 100 °C/W. Its fast switching behavior is defined by trr = 5 ns (IF = IR = 10 mA, RL = 100 Ω) and minimal forward voltage drop (VF1 = 0.8 V @ 10 mA).
The device supports high-density SMT placement due to its 0.2 g mass and standardized EIA-296 tape-and-reel packaging. Polarity is marked by cathode banding; terminals are tin/lead or matte-tin plated per MIL-STD-750, method 2026.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| Junction Temperature Range | −65 °C to +175 °C - certified for extended-range military and aerospace environmental operation |
| Capacitance (C) | 4.0 pF @ 0 V, 1 MHz - minimizes signal distortion on high-speed data lines |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4148WS-7-F | Plastic SOD-323 package; trr = 4 ns; C = 4 pF @ 0 V; VRWM = 75 V; not MIL-qualified | Commercial-only industrial controls; lacks hermetic seal and military temperature range | Select when cost-sensitive consumer-grade designs require same electrical specs without qualification overhead |
| 1N914B-TR | Same DO-213AA package; trr = 4 ns; VF1 = 0.85 V @ 10 mA; VRWM = 75 V; JAN-qualified but no JANTXV option | Legacy aerospace programs requiring proven pedigree but not extreme reliability screening | Choose where full JANTXV screening is unnecessary but DO-213AA form factor and MIL-PRF-19500/116 baseline are mandatory |
Compared with 1N914UR/TR, the 1N4148WS-7-F offers marginally faster switching in non-hermetic packaging, while the 1N914B-TR provides identical form factor with slightly relaxed qualification scope - both serve as functional alternatives where full JANTXV screening or RoHS-compliant commercial variants are not required.

FAQ
What is the reverse recovery time specification for the 1N914UR/TR?
The 1N914UR/TR has a reverse recovery time (trr) of 5 ns under standard test conditions (IF = IR = 10 mA, RL = 100 Ω). This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of the official Microsemi datasheet T4-LDS-0279-1. The 1N914UR/TR achieves this performance via metallurgical double-plug construction and low-junction capacitance.
Is the 1N914UR/TR RoHS compliant?
The 1N914UR/TR is RoHS compliant only in its commercial-grade version, indicated by the "e3" suffix in the part nomenclature. Military-grade variants (JAN/JANTX/JANTXV) retain leaded terminations per MIL-STD-750. The 1N914UR/TR datasheet explicitly states RoHS compliance applies to commercial grade only.
What package type does the 1N914UR/TR use?
The 1N914UR/TR uses the DO-213AA glass MELF package - a hermetically sealed, cylindrical surface-mount outline with axial symmetry and cathode band marking. Dimensions are BD = 1.60–1.70 mm and BL = 3.30–3.71 mm, per the Package Dimensions drawing on page 4 of the Microsemi datasheet.
How does the 1N914UR/TR differ from the 1N914?
The 1N914UR/TR is the surface-mount DO-213AA variant of the through-hole 1N914 (DO-35). Both share identical electrical specs including VRWM = 75 V and trr = 5 ns, but the 1N914UR/TR adds hermetic sealing, metallurgical bonding, and MIL-PRF-19500/116 qualification - features absent in the standard 1N914.
What is the maximum operating temperature for the 1N914UR/TR?
The 1N914UR/TR operates across a junction and storage temperature range of −65 °C to +175 °C, as specified in the Maximum Ratings table. This wide range is enabled by hermetic glass packaging and metallurgical bonding - critical for deployment in avionics and downhole industrial equipment where the 1N914UR/TR must sustain thermal shock.
