Product details
Overview
1N4745UR/TR from Microsemi is a surface-mount 1.0 W glass-encapsulated Zener diode with nominal Zener voltage 16 V, ±5% tolerance (A-suffix), 15.5 mA test current (IZT), 16 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT), and 0.25 A maximum regulator current (IZM) at TA = 50°C. It operates from –65°C to +175°C and is used for precision voltage regulation in high-density power supply rails and reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4745UR/TR datasheet, 1N4745UR/TR pinout, 1N4745UR/TR application, or 1N4745UR/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its DO-213AB MELF glass package, hermetic sealing, low parasitic capacitance, radiation hardness per MicroNote 050, and compatibility with automated SMT assembly under JEDEC-standard reflow profiles.
Technical Context
This Zener diode delivers stable voltage regulation across wide temperature (–65°C to +175°C) and current ranges, with thermal resistance of 50°C/W junction-to-end-cap and 130°C/W junction-to-ambient on FR4. Its glass MELF construction ensures low leakage (<5 µA at VR = 12.2 V) and inherent ESD insensitivity.
The device exhibits a sharp breakdown knee (ZZK = 57 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA), supports surge current up to 285 mA (½-sine, 1/120 s), and maintains regulation with forward voltage ≤1.2 V at 200 mA - enabling bidirectional protection and reference stability in compact DC-DC feedback paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 16 V ±5% - precise regulation point for 15–17 V rail stabilization |
| Power Dissipation | 1.0 W at TC ≤ 125°C - supports continuous operation in thermally constrained layouts |
| Test Current (IZT) | 15.5 mA - defines operating point where VZ and ZZT are specified |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZT) | 16 Ω @ IZT - low AC impedance ensures minimal output voltage variation under load transients |
| Max Regulator Current (IZM) | 0.25 A at TA = 50°C - sets safe DC current limit for sustained regulation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤5 µA @ VR = 12.2 V - guarantees low quiescent loss in standby mode |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4745A | Same electrical specs but DO-41 axial-leaded package; no MELF geometry or surface-mount footprint | Requires through-hole PCB layout and manual/automated insertion; unsuitable for high-density SMT designs | Select 1N4745A only when legacy through-hole assembly or board repair is required |
| SMAJ4745A | Same Zener voltage and tolerance, but plastic SMA package; higher thermal resistance (150°C/W) and lower surge rating (200 mA) | Limited to commercial-temperature applications; not rated for >150°C ambient or radiation exposure | Choose SMAJ4745A for cost-sensitive consumer designs where hermeticity and extended temperature are not critical |
Compared with 1N4745A and SMAJ4745A, the 1N4745UR/TR uniquely combines surface-mount compatibility, hermetic glass reliability, radiation hardness, and extended temperature operation - making it the sole option for high-reliability SMT voltage regulation where environmental robustness is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N4745UR/TR?
The 1N4745UR/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 16 V with ±5% tolerance, indicated by the "A" suffix in its designation. This means the actual measured VZ at 15.5 mA test current falls between 15.2 V and 16.8 V under standard test conditions (TC = 30°C, 90-second stabilization).
Does 1N4745UR/TR require special handling for ESD sensitivity?
No - the 1N4745UR/TR is nonsensitive to ESD per its datasheet, due to its glass MELF construction and intrinsic junction characteristics. Standard SMT handling procedures apply; no ionized air or grounded workstations are mandated for this device.
Can 1N4745UR/TR be used in reflow soldering processes?
Yes - the 1N4745UR/TR supports standard lead-free reflow profiles, including peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds. Its DO-213AB package and annealed matte-tin plating comply with MIL-STD-750 Method 2026 for solderability.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation for 1N4745UR/TR?
The 1N4745UR/TR is rated for 1.00 W steady-state power dissipation at end-cap temperature (TEC) < 125°C or ambient temperature (TA) < 45°C when mounted on FR4 with recommended pad layout. Derating is required above those temperatures per Figure 1 in the datasheet.
Is 1N4745UR/TR radiation-hardened?
Yes - the 1N4745UR/TR is inherently radiation-hard per MicroNote 050, a documented characteristic of its glass-encapsulated MELF structure. It is qualified for use in low-earth-orbit (LEO) and other radiation-exposed environments without additional screening.
