Product details
Overview
1N4573UR-1/TR from Microsemi is a temperature-compensated Zener reference diode in DO-213AA (MELF) glass package, rated for 1.0 mA test current, ±0.001 %/°C temperature coefficient, 5 mV max voltage stability over −55°C to +100°C, and 100 Ω dynamic impedance - used in precision voltage references for aerospace instrumentation and high-reliability analog front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4573UR-1/TR datasheet, 1N4573UR-1/TR pinout, 1N4573UR-1/TR application, or 1N4573UR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include low TC, hermetic MELF packaging, MIL-PRF-19500/452 qualification, and operation in 0.5–4.0 mA range with stable Zener voltage under thermal cycling.
Technical Context
This device belongs to the CDLL4565–CDLL4584A family of metallurgically bonded, double-plug Zener diodes engineered for ultra-low temperature drift. Its compensation architecture achieves ±0.001 %/°C TC by balancing opposing TC elements within a single junction structure.
It operates exclusively in reverse-biased Zener breakdown mode with cathode-band polarity marking, requires no external biasing circuitry, and maintains voltage stability per JEDEC Std. No. 5 across its full −55°C to +100°C qualified temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | Specified at 1.0 mA test current; exact value depends on variant suffix (e.g., CDLL4573 = 6.2 V nominal), critical for absolute reference accuracy. |
| Temp Coefficient (TC) | ±0.001 %/°C - enables sub-10 ppm/°C drift in precision voltage references without external compensation. |
| Voltage Stability | ≤5 mV max change over −55°C to +100°C - ensures repeatable calibration in wide-temperature military/aerospace systems. |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 100 Ω max at 1.0 mA - minimizes AC ripple coupling into reference nodes in low-noise analog signal chains. |
| Package | DO-213AA (MELF, SOD-80, LL34) - hermetically sealed glass case enabling >10-year reliability in harsh environments. |
| Qualification | MIL-PRF-19500/452 (JAN/JANTX/JANTXV/JANS) - certified for space-grade and defense-critical applications. |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AA (MELF) glass package: cylindrical, leadless, axial-symmetric body with cathode band marking; no discrete pins - terminals are axial leads formed from metallized ends of the glass-encapsulated die.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reverse-bias reference node ground connection | Connected to system ground or low-impedance return; must remain at lower potential than cathode during operation. |
| Cathode (banded end) | Zener voltage output terminal | Provides stable reference voltage; polarity marking prevents reverse installation in surface-mount layouts. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Temperature compensation | Double-plug metallurgical construction delivers ±0.001 %/°C TC - eliminates need for external thermistors or trimming in Class-S reference designs. |
| Hermetic sealing | DO-213AA glass package prevents moisture ingress and long-term parameter shift - meets MIL-STD-750 Method 1071. |
| Low operating current | Validated at 1.0 mA test current - enables battery-powered or ultra-low-power reference use without sacrificing stability. |
| Military qualification | Qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/452 - supports radiation-hardened, extended-temperature, and high-reliability program requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CDLL4573A | Same Zener voltage grade and TC, but qualified to −55°C to +100°C (vs. CDLL4573's 0°C to +75°C); identical DO-213AA package. | Required where full military temperature range validation is mandated (e.g., JANTXV-level programs). | Select CDLL4573A when full MIL-PRF-19500/452 temperature coverage is contractually required. |
| 1N4573AUR-1 | Same electrical specs and DO-213AA package; differs only in part numbering convention (Microsemi legacy vs. CDLL prefix). | No functional difference - used interchangeably in legacy BOMs and rework scenarios. | Choose 1N4573AUR-1 for continuity with existing schematics referencing older Microsemi nomenclature. |
Compared with CDLL4573 and 1N4573AUR-1, the 1N4573UR-1/TR shares identical Zener voltage, TC, and package but is specifically marked and tested to TR (tape-and-reel) packaging standard for automated SMT placement - making it optimal for high-volume production while maintaining full performance equivalence.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N4573UR-1/TR?
The 1N4573UR-1/TR is part of the CDLL4573 family, which specifies a nominal Zener voltage of 6.2 V. Tolerance is not explicitly stated in the provided data sheet excerpt, but MIL-PRF-19500/452-qualified variants typically hold ±5% initial tolerance. For precise binning, consult the manufacturer's test report or lot-specific data accompanying 1N4573UR-1/TR shipments.
Is 1N4573UR-1/TR RoHS-compliant?
No - the 1N4573UR-1/TR features tin/lead lead finish and is manufactured to MIL-PRF-19500/452, which permits Pb-containing finishes for high-reliability applications. It is exempt from RoHS Directive Annex III (Category 8 - monitoring and control instruments) and does not meet Pb-free requirements per JEDEC J-STD-609.
What is the maximum power dissipation for 1N4573UR-1/TR at +125°C?
At +50°C, 1N4573UR-1/TR has a DC power dissipation rating of 500 mW. With 4 mW/°C derating above +50°C, its max dissipation at +125°C is 200 mW (500 mW − 4 mW × 75°C). This limit applies under free-air conditions with proper PCB thermal relief design.
Can 1N4573UR-1/TR be used in forward-bias applications?
No - the 1N4573UR-1/TR is designed exclusively for reverse-bias Zener operation. Forward conduction is not characterized or guaranteed; using it in forward bias risks exceeding junction temperature limits and invalidates MIL-PRF-19500/452 qualification. Always operate 1N4573UR-1/TR with cathode positive relative to anode.
Does 1N4573UR-1/TR require external heat sinking?
No - the DO-213AA package relies on PCB copper area for thermal management. At 1.0 mA operating current and typical ambient temperatures, self-heating is negligible (<1°C rise). Heat sinking is unnecessary unless ambient exceeds +125°C or power dissipation approaches 200 mW; in such cases, maximize thermal pad area and minimize trace resistance to ground plane.
