Product details
Overview
1N4565A/TR from Microsemi is a 6.4 V temperature-compensated Zener reference diode in DO-7 (DO-204AA) glass axial-leaded package, rated for 0.5 mA test current, ±0.01%/°C temperature coefficient, 200 Ω dynamic impedance, and operating temperature range of –65°C to +175°C. It delivers high-stability voltage reference for precision analog instrumentation requiring minimal drift over wide thermal excursions.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4565A/TR datasheet, 1N4565A/TR pinout, 1N4565A/TR application, or 1N4565A/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6.4 V nominal Zener voltage with ±5% tolerance, ultra-low TC options within the same family, hermetic glass packaging, MIL-PRF-19500/452 qualification path, and TR tape-and-reel availability for automated assembly.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Microsemi's JEDEC-registered 1N4565–1N4584A-1 series of zero-TC reference diodes, engineered using internal metallurgical bonding to achieve stable Zener voltage across temperature. Its 6.4 V nominal voltage is optimized for low-drift bandgap-referenced systems where thermal hysteresis and long-term stability are critical.
The 1N4565A/TR operates at 0.5 mA Zener test current (IZT), delivering 200 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) and 2.0 µA maximum reverse leakage at 3 V. Its temperature coefficient of ±0.01%/°C applies over 0°C to +75°C, with extended storage and operating ranges up to +175°C enabled by hermetic glass construction.
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 bias condition |
| Temperature Coefficient (αVZ) | ±0.01%/°C over 0°C to +75°C - ensures <0.64 mV/°C drift in critical mid-range thermal zones |
| Zener Test Current (IZT) | 0.5 mA - optimal bias point for specified VZ and TC; power dissipation remains <30 mW |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 200 Ω at IZT = 0.5 mA - limits output voltage variation under load transients |
| Max Reverse Current (IR) | 2.0 µA at VR = 3 V - confirms low leakage for high-impedance reference node integrity |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +175°C - supports aerospace, downhole, and military systems with extreme thermal cycling |
| Package | DO-7 (DO-204AA) glass axial-leaded - hermetically sealed, MIL-STD-750 compliant, tin-lead plated leads |
Pinout & Package
DO-7 (DO-204AA) glass axial-leaded package with cathode band marking; leads are tin-lead plated per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026. Device operates with banded (cathode) end positive relative to anode - reverse-biased configuration as a shunt reference.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference ground return | Low-impedance DC return path; must be connected to system ground or lowest potential node |
| Cathode (banded end) | Reference voltage output | Provides regulated 6.4 V when reverse-biased; connects to load and bias resistor in shunt topology |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Temperature-compensated Zener structure | Metallurgically bonded junction enabling ±0.01%/°C TC over 0°C–75°C without external compensation |
| Hermetic glass encapsulation | DO-7 package withstands –65°C to +175°C operation and meets MIL-STD-750 mechanical reliability standards |
| MIL-PRF-19500/452 qualification path | Add JAN/JANTX/JANTXV prefix + "–1" suffix (e.g., JANTX1N4565A–1) for screened military-grade versions |
| Tape-and-reel packaging | "TR" suffix denotes EIA-296 compliant reel format for SMT placement compatibility and traceable lot control |
| Nonsensitive to ESD | Qualified per MIL-STD-750 Method 1020 - no special handling required during board assembly |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4566A/TR | Same DO-7 package and 6.4 V nominal voltage, but ±0.005%/°C TC (vs. ±0.01%/°C for 1N4565A/TR) | Better TC suits ultra-high-precision lab equipment; requires tighter thermal management due to lower TC sensitivity | Select when TC improvement justifies cost premium and layout allows optimized thermal isolation |
| 1N4570A/TR | Same 0.5 mA IZT and DO-7 package, but ±0.01%/°C TC and 100 Ω ZZT (vs. 200 Ω for 1N4565A/TR) | Lower dynamic impedance improves transient rejection in fast-switching power monitor circuits | Prefer for applications demanding faster response to load steps while retaining identical TC and voltage grade |
Compared with 1N4565A/TR, 1N4566A/TR offers improved temperature coefficient at the expense of higher unit cost and tighter thermal design constraints, while 1N4570A/TR provides lower dynamic impedance for better AC regulation-both retain identical package, voltage grade, and military qualification path.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N4565A/TR?
The 1N4565A/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 6.4 V with a tolerance of ±5% at 0.5 mA test current and 25°C. Tighter tolerances (e.g., ±1%, ±2%) are available via custom ordering with suffixes like "-1%" or "-2%", but the standard 1N4565A/TR variant ships with the base ±5% specification confirmed in Microsemi's REV B datasheet.
Does 1N4565A/TR support military qualification?
Yes - the 1N4565A/TR can be qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/452 by adding appropriate prefixes and suffixes: e.g., JANTX1N4565A-1 or JANTXV1N4565A-1. The base 1N4565A/TR is commercial-grade but shares identical DO-7 package, metallurgical construction, and electrical specs with its screened military variants.
What is the maximum power dissipation for 1N4565A/TR?
The 1N4565A/TR is rated for 500 mW DC power dissipation at lead temperature (TL) of 25°C. However, for optimal voltage-temperature stability, Microsemi specifies operation below 30 mW - achieved by biasing at its 0.5 mA IZT, resulting in ~3.2 mW nominal dissipation (6.4 V × 0.5 mA).
Is 1N4565A/TR compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
No - the 1N4565A/TR features tin-lead plated leads per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 and is rated for soldering at 260°C for 10 seconds maximum. Lead-free reflow profiles (typically >260°C peak) exceed this limit and may compromise hermeticity or metallurgical bond integrity; use only with SnPb soldering processes.
How does the temperature coefficient of 1N4565A/TR compare to other devices in the 1N45xxA family?
The 1N4565A/TR has a temperature coefficient of ±0.01%/°C, matching the 1N4565 and 1N4570 variants. It is less precise than 1N4566A/TR (±0.005%/°C) and 1N4569A/TR (±0.0005%/°C), but offers the broadest operational temperature range (–65°C to +175°C) among all 0.5 mA IZT members of the family.
