Product details
Overview
1N4743A,113 from Nexperia is a 13 V ±5 % Zener voltage regulator diode in a hermetically sealed SOD66 (DO-41) glass package, rated for 1000 mW total power dissipation and 500 mA maximum forward current, used for precision low-voltage stabilization in linear power supplies and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4743A,113 datasheet, 1N4743A,113 pinout, 1N4743A,113 application, or 1N4743A,113 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, cathode/anode terminal mapping, thermal resistance (110 K/W), working current (9.9 mA), and real-world use cases in analog voltage references and overvoltage protection.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain a stable 13 V reference across load variations, with differential resistance of 10 Ω at test current and reverse leakage ≤5 µA at 10.4 V. It is characterized at Tj = 25 °C and thermally rated for junction temperatures from −65 °C to +200 °C.
The device uses axial-leaded, hermetically sealed glass construction (SOD66) with a marking band indicating the cathode. Its thermal resistance from junction to tie-point is 110 K/W (lead length 4 mm), enabling reliable operation under pulsed and continuous DC conditions up to 1000 mW.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 13 V nominal, ±5 % tolerance - ensures stable reference within 12.35–13.65 V at 19 mA test current |
| Total Power Dissipation (Ptot) | 1000 mW max - supports continuous regulation in compact PCB layouts without forced cooling |
| Differential Resistance (rdif) | 10 Ω at IZ = 19 mA - low impedance improves regulation against load transients |
| Reverse Current (IR) | ≤5 µA at VR = 10.4 V - minimal leakage preserves accuracy in high-impedance reference nodes |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤1.2 V at IF = 200 mA - enables use as clamp or surge limiter in forward conduction mode |
| Junction Temperature Range | −65 °C to +200 °C - suitable for industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
Pinout & Package
Hermetically sealed SOD66 (DO-41) axial glass package with 2 leads; cathode identified by a colored band on the body.
| 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 |
|---|---|
| Hermetic glass sealing | Prevents moisture ingress and long-term parameter drift in humid or harsh environments |
| ±5 % VZ tolerance | Enables direct replacement in legacy designs without recalibration of feedback networks |
| 1000 mW power rating | Supports >10 mA load currents in shunt regulator configurations without external heat sinking |
| Low rdif (10 Ω) | Reduces output voltage variation under ±2 mA load changes - critical for precision references |
Applications
| Linear Power Supply Reference | Analog Sensor Signal Conditioning |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stabilizing feedback voltage in 78xx-style linear regulators or discrete transistor-based shunt regulators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener reference element providing fixed 13 V reference for error amplifier input. Use Value: Maintains output regulation within ±2 % over line/load variations due to tight VZ tolerance and low rdif. |
Use Scenario: Biasing op-amp input stages or setting common-mode voltage in 4–20 mA transmitter circuits. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision DC reference source for analog front-end calibration. Use Value: Delivers <5 µA leakage at 10.4 V, minimizing offset errors in high-impedance sensor interfaces. |
| Overvoltage Clamp Protection | Microcontroller Reset Circuit |
Use Scenario: Protecting ADC inputs or communication lines from transient surges exceeding 13 V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-biased clamping diode diverting excess energy to ground. Use Value: Responds within nanoseconds to transients while sustaining 1000 mW peak pulse power per IEC 61000-4-5. |
Use Scenario: Generating a clean, temperature-stable reset threshold for 3.3 V or 5 V microcontrollers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage threshold detector in RC-based power-on reset (POR) networks. Use Value: Stable 13 V Zener point allows precise resistor-divider scaling to match MCU reset voltage (e.g., 1.2 V or 2.5 V). |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4743A-T | Same electrical specs; tape-and-reel packaging (vs. bulk/ammopack for ,113); RoHS-compliant plating | No functional difference; preferred for automated SMT assembly lines requiring reel-fed feeders | Select when using pick-and-place equipment and requiring full RoHS compliance documentation |
| BZX85C13 | 13 V Zener, ±5 %, but rated for 1300 mW Ptot; larger DO-41 variant with higher thermal mass | Better thermal stability under sustained 15 mA loads; less sensitive to ambient temperature rise | Choose for high-reliability industrial systems where margin above 1000 mW is required for derating |
Compared with 1N4743A,113, the 1N4743A-T offers identical regulation performance in automated manufacturing contexts, while BZX85C13 provides higher power headroom and thermal robustness-making it preferable for continuous-duty analog references in unventilated enclosures.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage before breakdown for 1N4743A,113?
The nominal Zener voltage is 13 V with ±5 % tolerance, meaning breakdown occurs between 12.35 V and 13.65 V at the specified 19 mA test current. Below 10.4 V, reverse leakage remains ≤5 µA - no significant conduction occurs until near the rated VZ.
Can 1N4743A,113 be used in surface-mount designs?
No - it uses an axial-leaded SOD66 (DO-41) glass package designed for through-hole mounting. For SMT equivalents, consider Nexperia's BZX384-B13 (SOD-323, 13 V, ±2 %) or MMBZ4684 (SOT-23), which require different layout and thermal design.
How does thermal resistance affect regulation accuracy?
With Rth(j-t) = 110 K/W, a 1000 mW dissipation raises junction temperature by ~110 °C above ambient. Since VZ has a positive temperature coefficient (~0.07 %/°C for 13 V parts), this causes ~0.8 V upward drift - requiring derating or heatsinking in high-ambient environments.
Is 1N4743A,113 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - its −65 °C to +200 °C junction temperature range and hermetic glass construction meet AEC-Q200 stress requirements for passive components. However, system-level qualification (e.g., ISO 16750 testing) must be performed by the end customer for specific vehicle subsystems.
