Product details
Overview
CDLL4114 from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed, surface-mount silicon Zener diode in DO-213AA (MELF/LL34) package, rated for 20 V nominal Zener voltage at 250 µA test current, 150 Ω maximum Zener impedance, 0.01 µA maximum reverse leakage at 15.2 V, and 19 mA maximum Zener current. It operates across –65°C to +175°C junction temperature and is used in precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection circuits in aerospace power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the CDLL4114 datasheet, CDLL4114 pinout, CDLL4114 application, or CDLL4114 equivalent, key selection criteria include its ±5% Zener tolerance, low-leakage cathode-biased operation, thermal stability up to +175°C, and compatibility with high-reliability MIL-PRF-19500/435 screening levels (JANTXV).
Technical Context
The CDLL4114 functions as a two-terminal voltage reference device with metallurgically bonded construction and axial coefficient of expansion matched to ceramic substrates. Its Zener impedance is measured using 25 µA AC superimposed on 250 µA DC test current, and it exhibits 10 mW/°C derating above +125°C case temperature.
Designed for low-current regulation, the CDLL4114 maintains stable 20 V breakdown under 250 µA bias and supports reverse leakage as low as 0.01 µA at 15.2 V - critical for battery-backed and low-power sensing nodes where standby current must be minimized.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4104UR-1 | Same 20 V nominal Zener voltage but JANTXV-rated; identical DO-213AA package and 150 Ω ZZT | Qualified to same MIL-PRF-19500/435 spec; differs only in part numbering convention (UR-1 vs CDLL) | Select 1N4104UR-1 when procurement requires explicit UR-series military nomenclature |
| BZX84-C20LT1G | 20 V ±5%, SOT-23 package, 100 Ω ZZT, but only commercial temp range (–65°C to +150°C) and no MIL screening | Not suitable for aerospace or extended-temperature industrial use; lacks hermetic seal and JANTXV validation | Choose BZX84-C20LT1G only for cost-sensitive, non-mission-critical consumer designs with standard temperature requirements |
Compared with 1N4104UR-1 and BZX84-C20LT1G, the CDLL4114 offers identical electrical performance and military-grade reliability in a proven hermetic MELF form factor - making it the preferred choice where long-term parametric stability and extreme-temperature operation are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for CDLL4114?
The CDLL4114 has a nominal Zener voltage of 20 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as specified in Note 1 of the official Microsemi datasheet. This tolerance applies when measured at 25°C ambient with the device in thermal equilibrium. The CDLL4114 does not carry a "C" (±2%) or "D" (±1%) suffix, so its tolerance remains ±5%.
Is CDLL4114 suitable for high-temperature operation?
Yes, the CDLL4114 is rated for junction and storage temperatures from –65°C to +175°C, and its power dissipation is derated linearly at 10 mW/°C above +125°C case temperature. This makes the CDLL4114 appropriate for downhole, avionics, and other high-temperature applications where conventional Zeners fail.
What package type does CDLL4114 use?
The CDLL4114 uses the DO-213AA package - also known as MELF or LL34 - a hermetically sealed cylindrical glass case designed for surface-mount assembly. Dimensions are D = 1.60–1.70 mm, G = 3.30–3.70 mm, and F = 0.41–0.55 mm, with tin/lead lead finish.
Does CDLL4114 meet any military specifications?
Yes, the CDLL4114 is manufactured per MIL-PRF-19500/435 and is available in JANTXV screening levels. It meets requirements for hermeticity, temperature cycling, burn-in, and parameter verification defined in that specification - confirming its suitability for high-reliability defense and space programs.
How is polarity identified on CDLL4114?
The CDLL4114 is marked with a cathode band on the glass body - the banded end is the cathode and must be connected to the more positive potential during Zener operation. This polarity marking is consistent across all DO-213AA devices and is verified in Figure 1 of the Microsemi datasheet.
