Product details
Overview
1N4565/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 operation from –65°C to +175°C. It delivers stable voltage reference in precision analog instrumentation requiring minimal drift over temperature.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4565/TR datasheet, 1N4565/TR pinout, 1N4565/TR application, or 1N4565/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6.4 V nominal Zener voltage with ±5% tolerance, ultra-low TC option availability across the family, hermetic glass packaging, MIL-PRF-19500/452 qualification path, and TR tape-and-reel packaging format.
Technical Context
The 1N4565/TR uses internal metallurgical bonding to achieve stable Zener breakdown at 6.4 V with tightly controlled temperature coefficient of ±0.01%/°C over 0°C to +75°C. Its low 200 Ω dynamic impedance at 0.5 mA test current ensures minimal output voltage variation under load changes.
This device operates as a two-terminal passive voltage reference, requiring reverse-bias connection (cathode band positive), and is specified for ≤30 mW power dissipation during precision reference use-well below its 500 mW absolute maximum rating at 25°C lead temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|

| Temp. Coefficient (αVZ) | ±0.01%/°C over 0°C to +75°C - enables <0.7 mV/°C drift in high-stability analog references |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 200 Ω at IZT = 0.5 mA - limits AC ripple rejection degradation under varying load currents |
| Max Reverse Current (IR) | 2.0 µA at 3 V - ensures negligible leakage error in high-impedance reference divider networks |
| Operating Temp Range | –65°C to +175°C - supports deployment in aerospace, downhole, and military environments |

Use Scenario: Monitors regulated bus voltage in satellite power distribution units exposed to thermal cycling from –65°C to +125°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary voltage reference for comparator-based overvoltage/undervoltage detection circuitry. Use Value: Hermetic DO-7 package and –65°C to +175°C rating ensure reliability in vacuum and radiation-prone environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4566/TR | Same DO-7 package and 6.4 V nominal, but ±0.005%/°C TC (lower drift) | Better suited for extended temperature range applications where <0.4 mV/°C drift is required | Select 1N4566/TR when tighter TC is needed without changing layout or bias current |
| 1N4570/TR | Same 6.4 V and ±0.01%/°C TC, but 100 Ω ZZT (vs. 200 Ω) at same 0.5 mA IZT | Improved AC line regulation in switching reference buffers or fast-settling DAC references | Choose 1N4570/TR when lower dynamic impedance is prioritized over cost or legacy design continuity |
Compared with 1N4565/TR, 1N4566/TR offers half the temperature coefficient for enhanced stability, while 1N4570/TR halves dynamic impedance for improved ripple rejection-both retain identical pinout, package, and bias requirements.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N4565/TR?
The 1N4565/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 6.4 V with a standard tolerance of ±5% at 0.5 mA test current. Tighter tolerances (e.g., ±1%, ±2%) are available via custom ordering with suffixes like "-1%" or "-2%", but the base 1N4565/TR adheres to the JEDEC-specified ±5% limit.
Does the 1N4565/TR require external current limiting?
Yes-the 1N4565/TR must be operated with a series current-limiting resistor to maintain its recommended test current of 0.5 mA. Without proper biasing, voltage regulation degrades due to insufficient Zener conduction or thermal runaway; typical designs use 10–20 kΩ resistors from a 12–15 V supply.
Is the 1N4565/TR qualified to military specifications?
The base 1N4565/TR is not inherently qualified, but it is the commercial version of a MIL-PRF-19500/452-compliant family. Adding the JANTX prefix and "-1" suffix (e.g., JANTX1N4565-1) yields the fully screened military-grade variant with tested reliability and environmental performance.
What is the maximum power dissipation rating for the 1N4565/TR?
The 1N4565/TR has a maximum DC power dissipation of 500 mW at 25°C lead temperature (TL). However, for optimal voltage-temperature stability, Microsemi recommends operating below 30 mW-achievable by limiting IZ to 0.5 mA and ensuring adequate heat sinking or ambient derating above 25°C.
How is polarity marked on the 1N4565/TR package?
The 1N4565/TR uses a cathode band-a single black stripe-on the glass body to identify the cathode terminal. The banded end must be held at a higher potential than the anode (unbanded) end for proper reverse-bias operation as a Zener reference diode.
