Product details
Overview
CDLL4105 from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed, surface-mount silicon Zener diode with nominal 11 V zener voltage, 250 µA test current, 200 Ω zener impedance, 0.05 µA max reverse leakage at 8.44 V, and 35 mA maximum zener current - used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in aerospace-grade analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the CDLL4105 datasheet, CDLL4105 pinout, CDLL4105 application, or CDLL4105 equivalent, key selection criteria include zener tolerance (±5%), thermal resistance (100 °C/W), DO-213AA (MELF/LL34) package compatibility, low-current regulation capability, and operation across -65°C to +175°C junction temperature range.
Technical Context
The CDLL4105 operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device with cathode-banded polarity, requiring reverse-bias connection to maintain stable breakdown regulation. Its metallurgically bonded construction ensures long-term stability under thermal cycling and radiation exposure typical in military and space applications.
Zener voltage is specified at 25°C ambient with thermal equilibrium, and impedance is measured using 25 µA AC superimposed on 250 µA DC test current. Power derating begins at +125°C case temperature at 10 mW/°C, supporting high-reliability embedded systems with constrained thermal management.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 11 V ±5% at 250 µA - defines regulated output voltage with tight tolerance for reference stability |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 200 Ω max at 250 µA - indicates low dynamic resistance for minimal output voltage variation under load changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.05 µA max at 8.44 V - ensures negligible standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Max Zener Current (IZM) | 35 mA - sets absolute upper limit for continuous power dissipation without degradation |
| Junction Temp Range | -65°C to +175°C - enables deployment in extreme environments including avionics and downhole instrumentation |
| Package Type | DO-213AA (MELF/LL34) - cylindrical glass-body SMD package with axial symmetry and hermetic seal |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJC) | 100 °C/W max at L = 0 inch - determines temperature rise per watt, critical for thermal design margining |
Pinout & Package
CDLL4105 is a two-terminal device in DO-213AA (MELF/LL34) hermetically sealed glass package. Polarity is marked by a single cathode band; the banded end must be connected to the more positive potential in reverse-bias configuration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Lower-potential terminal in reverse-bias operation | Connected to circuit ground or lower-voltage rail to enable zener conduction |
| Cathode | Higher-potential terminal (banded end) | Connected to input or supply rail; establishes regulated voltage drop across device |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hermetic Glass Sealing | Prevents moisture ingress and parameter drift over decades in harsh environments |
| Metallurgical Bonding | Ensures mechanical robustness and thermal cycle reliability up to 1000 cycles |
| Low 250 µA Test Current | Enables stable regulation in ultra-low-power sensor biasing and battery-backed circuits |
| Wide Temperature Range | Supports operation without derating from -65°C to +125°C ambient, with full spec compliance to +175°C |
| MIL-PRF-19500/435 Qualified | Meets screening, testing, and traceability requirements for Class B (JANTX) and Class S (JANS) military applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4105UR-1 | Same electrical specs; metal-can TO-206AA (DO-35) package instead of glass DO-213AA | Higher thermal resistance (150 °C/W), less suitable for high-density SMT layouts | Preferred where through-hole mounting or higher surge robustness is required |
| CDLL4105C | Identical package and construction, but ±2% zener tolerance (C suffix) vs. ±5% standard | Used in metrology-grade references where tighter initial accuracy reduces system calibration burden | Select when absolute voltage accuracy outweighs cost sensitivity |
Compared with CDLL4105, 1N4105UR-1 trades SMT compatibility for ruggedized through-hole packaging, while CDLL4105C delivers enhanced initial accuracy at higher cost-both require layout or BOM revision and are not drop-in replacements.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for CDLL4105?
The CDLL4105 has a nominal zener voltage of 11 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as defined in Note 1 of the official Microsemi specification sheet. This tolerance applies when measured at 25°C ambient with the device junction in thermal equilibrium. The CDLL4105 does not include a suffix indicating tighter tolerance; variants like CDLL4105C offer ±2%.
Is CDLL4105 suitable for surface-mount assembly?
Yes, CDLL4105 is specifically designed for surface-mount use in the DO-213AA (MELF/LL34) package. Its leadless cylindrical glass body supports reflow soldering per J-STD-020, and its axial coefficient of expansion (+6 ppm/°C) is matched to common PCB substrates to minimize stress during thermal cycling.
What is the maximum power dissipation for CDLL4105 at room temperature?
The CDLL4105 has a DC power dissipation rating of 500 mW at an end-cap temperature (TEC) of +125°C. At room temperature (25°C), it can safely dissipate up to 500 mW, but actual usable power depends on board-level thermal design. Derating begins above +125°C at 10 mW/°C, limiting dissipation to ~350 mW at +160°C.
Does CDLL4105 meet any military specifications?
Yes, CDLL4105 complies with MIL-PRF-19500/435 and is qualified for JANTX (Class B) and JANS (Class S) levels. It undergoes rigorous screening including burn-in, temperature cycling, and hermeticity testing to ensure reliability in defense and space applications - documentation and lot traceability are provided with each shipment.
How does the zener impedance of CDLL4105 affect circuit performance?
The CDLL4105 specifies a maximum zener impedance (ZZT) of 200 Ω at 250 µA test current. This value directly impacts regulation stiffness: lower impedance yields smaller output voltage variation under changing load current. In precision reference designs, this enables <±10 mV deviation across 10–35 mA operating range, critical for stable comparator thresholds and ADC reference buffering.
