Product details
Overview
1N4570/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, and 100 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT. It delivers stable voltage reference performance across -65°C to +175°C for precision analog instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4570/TR datasheet, 1N4570/TR pinout, 1N4570/TR application, or 1N4570/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its low TC (0.01 %/°C), hermetic DO-7 packaging, MIL-PRF-19500/452 qualification readiness, and tight 6.4 V ±5% nominal tolerance under 0.5 mA bias.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Microsemi's zero-TC Zener series optimized for minimal voltage drift over temperature. Its 6.4 V nominal Zener voltage leverages silicon junction characteristics near the temperature-invariant point of ~6.2–6.4 V, enabling intrinsic compensation without external circuitry.
The 0.5 mA Zener test current and 100 Ω dynamic impedance reflect design optimization for low-power, high-stability reference use. Operating within 30 mW dissipation ensures thermal stability while maintaining voltage accuracy across military-grade temperature extremes (-65°C to +175°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Zener Voltage | 6.4 V ±5% at IZT = 0.5 mA - defines primary reference accuracy under standard test condition |
| Temperature Coefficient | 0.01 %/°C - enables <0.7 mV/°C drift over 0 to +75°C operating range |
| Zener Impedance | 100 Ω at IZT = 0.5 mA - limits AC error contribution in buffered reference circuits |
| Max Power Dissipation | 500 mW @ TL = 25°C - supports short-term surge handling; recommended ≤30 mW for optimal TC stability |
| Operating Temperature | -65°C to +175°C - qualified for aerospace, downhole, and extended industrial environments |
| Package | DO-7 (DO-204AA) - hermetically sealed glass axial package with tin-lead solderable leads |
| Reverse Current | ≤2.0 µA at 3 V - ensures negligible leakage error in high-impedance reference nodes |
Pinout & Package
DO-7 (DO-204AA) hermetically sealed glass package with axial leads. Cathode identified by black band; anode is unbanded lead. Leads are tin-lead plated per MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference diode cathode-connected node | Connected to circuit ground or lower potential; reverse-biased operation requires cathode > anode |
| Cathode | Zener voltage output terminal | Provides stable 6.4 V reference when biased with 0.5 mA through external resistor; marked with black band |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4570A/TR | Same 6.4 V / 0.01 %/°C / 0.5 mA spec but tighter initial tolerance (±2% vs ±5%) and enhanced screening per JANTX-level requirements | Required where tighter initial accuracy or extended reliability testing is mandated (e.g., space-grade subsystems) | Select 1N4570A/TR when ±2% VZ tolerance and MIL-PRF-19500 compliance are contractually required |
| LM399H | 2 ppm/°C TC, 6.95 V output, buried-Zener architecture, TO-99 metal can, 10 mA operating current | Used in metrology-grade instruments demanding <0.1 ppm/°C stability; not drop-in due to different package, bias, and voltage | Choose LM399H only for ultra-high-precision lab equipment; 1N4570/TR remains optimal for ruggedized field-deployable systems |
Compared with 1N4570A/TR, the 1N4570/TR offers cost-effective baseline stability for industrial use; versus LM399H, it trades ultimate TC performance for hermetic DO-7 robustness, wider temperature range, and simpler biasing at 0.5 mA.

FAQ
What is the Zener test current for 1N4570/TR?
The 1N4570/TR is specified at a Zener test current (IZT) of 0.5 mA. This current level is used to measure its nominal 6.4 V Zener voltage and 0.01 %/°C temperature coefficient. Operating at this bias ensures optimal TC performance and aligns with JEDEC registration requirements for the 1N4570/TR series.
Is 1N4570/TR suitable for military applications?
Yes, the 1N4570/TR serves as the commercial baseline for MIL-PRF-19500/452 qualified variants. By adding prefixes such as JANTX or JANTXV and the "-1" suffix (e.g., JANTX1N4570-1), the same die and DO-7 package meet military screening and reliability standards. The base 1N4570/TR itself is fully compatible with those qualification paths.
What does the "TR" suffix mean in 1N4570/TR?
The "TR" suffix in 1N4570/TR indicates tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-296 standards. This format supports automated pick-and-place assembly in high-volume manufacturing. The electrical and mechanical specifications of the 1N4570/TR remain identical to the bulk version - only the packaging differs.
How does the temperature coefficient of 1N4570/TR compare to standard Zeners?
The 1N4570/TR achieves a temperature coefficient of 0.01 %/°C - over 10× better than typical 5.6 V Zeners (~0.1 %/°C) and 100× better than non-compensated 12 V Zeners (~1 %/°C). This low TC results from junction engineering near the 6.4 V silicon zero-TC point, making the 1N4570/TR ideal for applications where thermal drift must be minimized.
Can 1N4570/TR replace 1N4565/TR in an existing design?
No - although both are 6.4 V DO-7 Zeners, the 1N4565/TR has a higher 0.01 %/°C TC but significantly higher 200 Ω dynamic impedance versus the 1N4570/TR's 100 Ω. Substituting them may increase AC noise coupling and reduce regulation accuracy under varying load conditions. Always verify impedance and TC match in the target operating current before replacement.
