Product details
Overview
1N4565AE3/TR from Microsemi is a 6.4 V temperature-compensated Zener reference diode in DO-7 (DO-204AA) glass axial-leaded package, rated for ±5% voltage tolerance, 0.5 mA Zener test current (IZT), and 0.01%/°C temperature coefficient (αVZ). It operates from –65°C to +175°C and delivers stable voltage reference in precision analog instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4565AE3/TR datasheet, 1N4565AE3/TR pinout, 1N4565AE3/TR application, or 1N4565AE3/TR equivalent, key selection factors include its low TC (0.01%/°C), hermetic DO-7 packaging, MIL-PRF-19500/452 qualification readiness, and tight thermal stability over military-grade temperature ranges.
Technical Context
This device uses internal metallurgical bonding to achieve minimal voltage drift across temperature extremes. Its 6.4 V nominal Zener voltage is optimized for zero-TC operation at IZT = 0.5 mA, with dynamic impedance of 200 Ω and reverse leakage ≤2.0 µA at 3 V.
The 1N4565AE3/TR is part of the JEDEC-registered 1N4565–1N4584A series, where "A" denotes tighter voltage tolerance and "E3/TR" indicates tin-lead plating and tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296. Polarity requires cathode band to be biased negative relative to anode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 6.4 V ±5% at IZT = 0.5 mA - defines primary reference accuracy under standard test conditions |
| Temperature Coefficient (αVZ) | 0.01%/°C - ensures <0.64 mV/°C drift over 0 to +75°C operating range |
| Zener Test Current (IZT) | 0.5 mA - optimal bias point for achieving specified VZ and αVZ performance |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 200 Ω @ IZT - limits output voltage variation under load current changes |
| Max Reverse Current (IR) | ≤2.0 µA @ 3 V - confirms low leakage for high-impedance reference node integrity |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +175°C - supports deployment in aerospace, downhole, and military systems |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW @ TL = 25°C - enables robust thermal margin with derating above ambient |
Pinout & Package
DO-7 (DO-204AA) hermetically sealed glass axial-leaded package with tin-lead plated leads per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026; cathode identified by band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference ground reference terminal | Connected to circuit common; reverse-biased operation requires this terminal to be more negative than cathode |
| Cathode | Positive reference output terminal | Banded end; supplies stable 6.4 V when reverse-biased at IZT = 0.5 mA |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Temperature compensation | 0.01%/°C TC enables <±1.2 mV total drift over –55°C to +100°C operating range |
| Hermetic DO-7 packaging | Enables long-term reliability in high-humidity, corrosive, or vacuum environments without encapsulation |
| MIL-PRF-19500/452 readiness | Qualified to Class B (JANTX) with "-1" suffix - supports defense/aerospace BOM continuity |
| Nonsensitive to ESD | Complies with MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - eliminates need for external ESD protection in handling |
| Tape-and-reel packaging | EIA-296 compliant - enables automated SMT placement despite axial-leaded form factor |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4565A-1 | Includes MIL-PRF-19500/452 JANTX qualification and "-1" suffix; identical electrical specs | Required for DoD procurement; same DO-7 package but with extended traceability and screening | Select when compliance with MIL-PRF-19500 Class B is mandatory |
| 1N4570AE3/TR | Same 6.4 V ±5%, 0.5 mA IZT, and DO-7 package, but 0.01%/°C TC applies over –55°C to +100°C (vs. 0 to +75°C for 1N4565AE3/TR) | Better low-temperature stability; higher dynamic impedance (100 Ω vs. 200 Ω) improves regulation under varying loads | Prefer for wide-range industrial systems needing improved cold-start behavior |
Compared with 1N4565AE3/TR, 1N4565A-1 adds military qualification without electrical change, while 1N4570AE3/TR trades slightly higher impedance for broader TC validity range-enabling simpler thermal modeling in extended-temperature designs.

FAQ
What is the Zener test current for 1N4565AE3/TR?
The 1N4565AE3/TR is specified at a Zener test current (IZT) of 0.5 mA. This current level is required to achieve the nominal 6.4 V Zener voltage and the stated 0.01%/°C temperature coefficient. Operating significantly above or below this current will increase dynamic impedance and degrade TC performance, so biasing circuits must maintain IZT within ±10% for datasheet-compliant operation of the 1N4565AE3/TR.
Does 1N4565AE3/TR meet military specifications?
The 1N4565AE3/TR itself is not qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/452, but it is the commercial baseline for the JANTX-qualified variant 1N4565A-1. The "E3/TR" suffix indicates tin-lead plating and tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296, not military screening. To meet military requirements, users must specify the "-1" suffix and appropriate prefix (e.g., JANTX1N4565A-1), which adds environmental testing and lot traceability-distinct from the 1N4565AE3/TR.
What does the "A" in 1N4565AE3/TR signify?
The "A" in 1N4565AE3/TR denotes a tighter initial voltage tolerance option within the 1N4565 series-specifically ±5% for the 6.4 V nominal rating. This distinguishes it from the base 1N4565 (±10%), and is confirmed in Microsemi's Electrical Characteristics table. All other parameters-including TC, IZT, and package-remain identical between 1N4565 and 1N4565A variants, making the "A" a precision grade identifier for the 1N4565AE3/TR.
Can 1N4565AE3/TR be used in surface-mount designs?
No, the 1N4565AE3/TR uses a DO-7 (DO-204AA) axial-leaded glass package and is not a surface-mount device. However, Microsemi offers surface-mount equivalents such as the JANTX1N4569AUR-1 in DO-213AA for SMT-compatible implementations. The "TR" suffix on 1N4565AE3/TR refers only to tape-and-reel packaging for automated axial insertion-not SMT compatibility-so board layout must accommodate through-hole mounting for the 1N4565AE3/TR.
What is the maximum power dissipation for 1N4565AE3/TR?
The 1N4565AE3/TR has a maximum DC power dissipation of 500 mW at lead temperature (TL) = 25°C. However, the datasheet explicitly recommends operating below 30 mW for optimum voltage-temperature stability. At IZT = 0.5 mA and VZ = 6.4 V, power dissipation is ~3.2 mW-well within the low-power zone. Exceeding 30 mW risks increased self-heating and TC deviation, so thermal design must ensure the 1N4565AE3/TR remains near ambient temperature during operation.
