Product details
Overview
1N4532/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed glass-packaged switching diode with 50 V DC reverse voltage rating, 125 mA operating current at +25°C, and 4.0 ns maximum reverse recovery time (TRR) at IF = IR = 10 mA. It operates across -55°C to +175°C and is used in high-reliability timing, pulse shaping, and signal routing circuits in aerospace and defense systems.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4532/TR datasheet, 1N4532/TR pinout, 1N4532/TR application, or 1N4532/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include TRR ≤ 4.0 ns, VRWM = 50 V, hermetic DO-34 packaging, thermal resistance ≤ 250°C/W, and MIL-PRF-19500/144 compliance for ruggedized analog front-ends.
Technical Context
The 1N4532/TR employs metallurgically bonded double-plug construction inside a hermetically sealed DO-34 glass package, enabling stable operation under extreme thermal cycling and radiation exposure. Its low 2.0 pF junction capacitance and sub-5 ns TRR support fast edge transitions in RF detector and sample-and-hold circuits.
Designed per MIL-PRF-19500/144 Class JANTXV, the device delivers guaranteed performance over -55°C to +175°C without derating until +25°C, with linear current derating of 0.883 mA/°C above ambient. The tin/lead-plated copper-clad steel leads ensure solderability and mechanical robustness in high-vibration environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| DC Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 50 V - Maximum continuous blocking voltage before leakage exceeds 0.1 µA at +25°C. |
| Reverse Recovery Time (TRR) | 4.0 ns max - Enables reliable operation in >100 MHz switching applications with minimal switching loss. |
| Junction Capacitance (CJ) | 2.0 pF max @ 0 V - Minimizes signal loading in RF coupling and high-speed sampling paths. |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | 1.0 V max @ 10 mA - Ensures low conduction loss in low-current logic-level clamping circuits. |
| Surge Current (1 µs sine) | 2.0 A - Withstands transient overloads in protection circuits without parametric shift. |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJL) | 250°C/W max at L = 0.375″ - Defines worst-case junction-to-lead temperature rise under steady-state 125 mA operation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar switching diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4148W-TP | Plastic SOD-123 package; TRR = 4.0 ns; VRWM = 100 V; not hermetic or MIL-qualified. | Commercial industrial controls; unsuitable for vacuum, radiation, or extended temperature use. | Select only for cost-sensitive non-military designs where hermeticity and screening are unnecessary. |
| 1N5711 | DO-35 glass package; Schottky structure; VF ≈ 0.3 V; TRR not specified; VRWM = 70 V. | Low-VF rectification in RF mixers; lacks guaranteed TRR and MIL screening. | Choose when forward voltage drop dominates design priority over reverse recovery predictability. |
Compared with 1N4532/TR, 1N4148W-TP offers higher VRWM but no hermetic seal or temperature range assurance, while 1N5711 reduces conduction loss but sacrifices controlled switching behavior-making 1N4532/TR the sole choice for deterministic nanosecond timing in harsh environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse recovery time (TRR) specification for the 1N4532/TR?
The 1N4532/TR has a maximum reverse recovery time of 4.0 ns when tested at IF = IR = 10 mA and IRec = 1 mA. This value is guaranteed per MIL-PRF-19500/144 test methods and is critical for maintaining signal fidelity in high-speed pulse detection circuits using the 1N4532/TR.
Does the 1N4532/TR meet military specifications?
Yes, the 1N4532/TR is manufactured and tested to MIL-PRF-19500/144 Class JANTXV requirements, including temperature cycling, burn-in, and lot traceability. This certification applies directly to the 1N4532/TR and confirms its suitability for defense and space-grade applications.
What is the operating temperature range of the 1N4532/TR?
The 1N4532/TR operates continuously from -55°C to +175°C, with no derating required up to +25°C ambient. Its hermetic DO-34 package and metallurgical construction ensure stable electrical parameters across this full range, as verified in the 1N4532/TR qualification report.
Is the 1N4532/TR suitable for RF detector applications?
Yes, the 1N4532/TR is widely used in RF detector circuits due to its 2.0 pF junction capacitance, 4.0 ns TRR, and low forward voltage. These characteristics allow the 1N4532/TR to accurately demodulate microwave envelope signals without phase distortion or amplitude compression.
What does the "/TR" suffix indicate in 1N4532/TR?
The "/TR" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging per MIL-STD-790, with standard reel quantities and humidity-sensitive level (HSL) handling per J-STD-033. This packaging format applies specifically to the 1N4532/TR and supports automated SMT-compatible placement in high-reliability assembly lines.
