Product details
Overview
1N4732A,113 from Nexperia is a 4.7 V ±5 % Zener voltage regulator diode in a hermetically sealed SOD66 (DO-41) glass package, rated for 1000 mW total power dissipation and 53 mA test current, used for low-voltage stabilization in linear power supplies and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4732A,113 datasheet, 1N4732A,113 pinout, 1N4732A,113 application, or 1N4732A,113 equivalent, this page delivers verified Zener parameters, cathode/anode terminal mapping, thermal resistance (110 K/W), differential resistance (8 Ω), and real-world use cases in precision biasing and overvoltage protection.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 4.7 V reference under regulated current conditions. It exhibits a typical differential resistance of 8 Ω at 53 mA test current and supports up to 500 mA forward current, with junction temperature rated from −65 °C to +200 °C.
Designed for DC voltage regulation in discrete analog circuits, it relies on thermal equilibrium in still air per IEC 60134 limiting values, with thermal resistance from junction to tie-point specified at 110 K/W for 4 mm lead length.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.7 V nominal, ±5 % tolerance - defines precise DC reference level for feedback or bias networks |
| Test Current (Itest) | 53 mA - operating point where VZ and differential resistance are specified |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 8 Ω at Itest - determines output impedance and load regulation sensitivity |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 1000 mW at Tamb = 50 °C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling in standard mounting |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤1.2 V at IF = 200 mA - ensures low-loss conduction when used as clamp or rectifier |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤10 µA at VR = 1 V - guarantees minimal leakage in high-impedance reference paths |
Pinout & Package
Hermetically sealed axial-leaded SOD66 (DO-41) glass package with 2 terminals; cathode identified by a colored band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (banded end) | Cathode | Connected to regulated output node; reverse-biased during Zener operation |
| 2 (non-banded end) | Anode | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail; completes bias path for breakdown conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Stable Zener voltage | 4.7 V ±5 % at 53 mA - enables repeatable DC reference without trimming |
| Low dynamic impedance | 8 Ω differential resistance - minimizes output voltage shift under load variation |
| High power rating | 1000 mW dissipation - supports robust operation in unregulated input stages |
| Wide temperature range | −65 °C to +200 °C junction operation - suitable for industrial and automotive ambient extremes |
Applications
| Linear Power Supply Reference | Overvoltage Clamp Circuit |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stabilizing output voltage in unregulated transformer-rectifier-capacitor supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode acting as shunt voltage reference in feedback loop or post-regulation stage. Use Value: Maintains 4.7 V reference with ≤0.235 V deviation across ±5 % tolerance, enabling predictable dropout margin for downstream LDOs. |
Use Scenario: Protecting microcontroller I/O pins from transient overvoltage events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-biased clamping element diverting excess energy to ground. Use Value: Activates at 4.7 V with 8 Ω dynamic impedance, limiting pin voltage rise within safe logic thresholds during ESD or surge events. |
| Precision Bias Generator | Analog Sensor Excitation |
Use Scenario: Providing stable bias current to op-amp input stages or transistor bases. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt regulator establishing fixed voltage node for current-setting resistors. Use Value: Delivers <10 µA leakage at 1 V reverse bias, preserving high-impedance bias network accuracy. |
Use Scenario: Supplying excitation voltage to resistive temperature detectors (RTDs) or strain gauges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise DC reference source for bridge excitation. Use Value: 4.7 V output with 8 Ω impedance ensures <0.5 mV error contribution under 60 µA sensor current draw. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4732A-T | Same electrical specs; tape-and-reel packaging (vs. bulk/ammopack for ,113); identical SOD66 footprint | No functional difference; optimized for automated SMT placement rather than manual/hand-soldered prototyping | Select for high-volume PCB assembly where reel-fed pick-and-place is used |
| BZX55-C4V7 | 4.7 V ±5 %, but 500 mW Ptot rating and higher rdif (10 Ω); DO-35 package (smaller, less rugged) | Limited power handling and thermal margin; unsuitable for >500 mW dissipation or high-ambient environments | Choose only for space-constrained, low-power designs where 1000 mW headroom is unnecessary |
Compared with 1N4732A,113, the 1N4732A-T offers identical regulation performance with packaging suited to production automation, while BZX55-C4V7 trades power capability and thermal robustness for smaller size-making the ,113 optimal for reliability-critical, medium-power analog references.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for 1N4732A,113?
The 1N4732A,113 is specified to regulate at 4.7 V ±5 % when operated at its 53 mA test current. Breakdown begins near 4.465 V (−5 % limit), and full regulation is established above that threshold. It is not rated for sustained operation below 4.465 V in Zener mode, nor above 4.935 V without exceeding tolerance bands.
Can 1N4732A,113 be used in surface-mount designs?
No - the 1N4732A,113 uses an axial-leaded SOD66 (DO-41) glass package designed for through-hole mounting. Its leads require hole placement and soldering on PCBs with plated-through vias. For SMT, consider functionally equivalent devices like MMBZ5225B (SOT-23) or BZX84-C4V7 (SOT-23), which differ electrically and thermally.
How does thermal resistance affect derating at elevated ambient temperatures?
With Rth(j-t) = 110 K/W and Tj(max) = +200 °C, power must be derated linearly above 50 °C ambient: Pderated = 1000 mW × (1 − (Tamb − 50)/150). At 100 °C ambient, max allowable dissipation drops to ~667 mW to prevent junction overheating.
Is the 1N4732A,113 suitable for AC signal clipping applications?
Yes - its symmetric forward conduction (≤1.2 V at 200 mA) and sharp reverse breakdown enable bidirectional clipping. However, due to its 8 Ω dynamic impedance and 1000 mW rating, it is best suited for low-frequency (<1 MHz), moderate-current (<100 mA peak) clipping where thermal stability matters more than speed.
