Product details
Overview
1N648UR-1/TR from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed silicon rectifier diode in a glass package, rated for 500V DC reverse voltage, 400mA forward current at +25°C, and 5A surge current (8.3ms sine), used in high-reliability power conversion stages of aerospace and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1N648UR-1/TR datasheet, 1N648UR-1/TR pinout, 1N648UR-1/TR application, or 1N648UR-1/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 500V VRWM rating, 1.0V max VF at 400mA, 0.05µA max IR at 500V, -65°C to +175°C operating range, and hermetic glass package suitability for harsh-environment rectification.
Technical Context
This axial-lead, polarity-marked (banded cathode) rectifier employs metallurgically bonded construction inside a hermetically sealed glass case, enabling stable operation across extreme temperature excursions without moisture ingress or parameter drift.
Its electrical behavior is defined by a maximum forward voltage drop of 1.0V at 400mA and leakage current limited to 0.05µA at rated 500V reverse bias, with capacitance ≤20pF at 4V reverse bias - characteristics critical for EMI-sensitive and high-temperature switching power applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 500V DC - maximum continuous reverse voltage before breakdown; defines safe blocking capability in AC/DC front-end stages |
| IF(AV) | 400mA at +25°C - average forward current handling under standard ambient; derates linearly above +25°C |
| VF(max) | 1.00V at 400mA - peak forward conduction loss impacting efficiency and thermal design in low-voltage rectifiers |
| IR(max) | 0.05µA at 500V, +25°C - ultra-low leakage ensures minimal standby power loss and stable bias in precision circuits |
| Surge Current | 5.0A (8.3ms sine) - withstands transient inrush during cold-start or line surges without failure |
| Operating Temp | -65°C to +175°C - supports deployment in avionics, downhole tools, and military-grade power systems |

| Anode | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC input or transformer secondary; must handle full surge and steady-state current |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reverse voltage reference | Banded end; connects to output filter capacitor or load return; defines polarity-sensitive mounting |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hermetic glass seal | Prevents moisture-induced parameter shift and long-term degradation in humid or corrosive environments |
| Metallurgical bonding | Ensures robust die-to-lead attachment for high thermal cycling reliability and low contact resistance |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N648UR-1 | No TR suffix; bulk packaging vs. tape-and-reel; identical electrical specs and package | Same use cases; differs only in packaging format for SMT placement vs. manual/hand-soldering | Select 1N648UR-1/TR when automated assembly requires reel-fed feeders |
| 1N648-1 | Non-hermetic epoxy package; wider VF tolerance (0.8–1.2V); higher IR (≤1.0µA) | Suitable for commercial-grade applications where cost outweighs hermeticity and leakage requirements | Choose 1N648-1 only if environmental stress testing and ultra-low leakage are not required |
Compared with 1N648UR-1/TR, the 1N648UR-1 offers identical performance in a different packaging format, while the 1N648-1 trades hermeticity and leakage performance for lower cost in non-critical environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage rating for the 1N648UR-1/TR?
The 1N648UR-1/TR has a DC reverse voltage rating (VRWM) of 500V. This value represents the highest continuous reverse-bias voltage the device can block without entering breakdown. It is specified at 25°C and remains valid across the full -65°C to +175°C operating temperature range, making the 1N648UR-1/TR suitable for high-voltage rectification in demanding environments.
What is the forward voltage drop of the 1N648UR-1/TR at rated current?
The 1N648UR-1/TR exhibits a maximum forward voltage drop (VF) of 1.00V at 400mA forward current and +25°C ambient. At 600mA, VF is not guaranteed but measured up to 50V - confirming robust conduction capability. This low VF supports efficient power conversion and reduced thermal load in compact rectifier designs using the 1N648UR-1/TR.
Does the 1N648UR-1/TR have a hermetic package?
Yes, the 1N648UR-1/TR uses a hermetically sealed glass package, confirmed by manufacturer documentation and construction details including metallurgical bonding and double-plug sealing. This hermeticity prevents moisture ingress and ensures long-term parameter stability - a defining feature distinguishing the 1N648UR-1/TR from epoxy-packaged variants like the 1N648-1.
What is the leakage current specification for the 1N648UR-1/TR?
The 1N648UR-1/TR specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.05µA at 500V DC reverse voltage and +25°C. This ultra-low leakage enables reliable operation in high-impedance circuits and high-temperature applications where even nanoamp-level currents could disrupt biasing or sensing - a key performance advantage of the 1N648UR-1/TR in precision power systems.
What temperature range is supported by the 1N648UR-1/TR?
The 1N648UR-1/TR operates continuously from -65°C to +175°C, with storage temperature matching this range. Its metallurgically bonded, hermetically sealed glass construction enables this wide range without parameter drift or seal failure. This makes the 1N648UR-1/TR appropriate for extreme environments such as jet engine bays, oil well downhole tools, and space-qualified electronics.
