Product details
Overview
CDLL4625 from Microsemi is a hermetically sealed, glass-encapsulated MELF (DO-213AA) Zener diode with nominal 5.1 V zener voltage, 250 µA test current, 1500 Ω maximum zener impedance at IZT, 10 µA maximum reverse leakage at 3 V, and 70 mA maximum DC zener current. It operates from –65°C to +175°C and is used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in high-reliability aerospace and military power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the CDLL4625 datasheet, CDLL4625 pinout, CDLL4625 application, or CDLL4625 equivalent, key selection factors include its ±5% zener tolerance, low-current operation at 250 µA, hermetic DO-213AA package, thermal resistance of 100 °C/W, and suitability for high-temperature, radiation-tolerant analog circuits requiring stable reference voltages.
Technical Context
The CDLL4625 is a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for low-current, high-stability voltage regulation. Its metallurgically bonded construction ensures long-term parameter stability under thermal cycling, and its hermetic glass package provides immunity to moisture and contaminants-critical for MIL-PRF-19500/435-compliant applications.
It exhibits a zener impedance of 1500 Ω at 250 µA test current and maintains ≤10 µA reverse leakage at 3 V, enabling accurate clamping in low-power bias networks. The device's axial coefficient of expansion (+6 ppm/°C) requires matched PCB substrate selection to minimize mechanical stress during thermal transients.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 5.1 V ±5% at IZT = 250 µA - defines stable reference point for calibration and feedback loops |
| Zener Impedance (ZZT) | 1500 Ω max at IZT = 250 µA - limits output voltage variation under load changes |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤10 µA at VR = 3 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in standby bias networks |
| Max DC Zener Current (IZ) | 70 mA - sets upper limit for continuous regulation without thermal runaway |
| Power Dissipation | 500 mW @ TEC = +125°C, derated 10 mW/°C above - constrains heatsinking requirements in compact enclosures |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +175°C - supports deployment in engine bays, avionics bays, and downhole electronics |
| Package | DO-213AA (MELF, SOD-80, LL34) - hermetic glass body enables long-term reliability in harsh environments |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AA (MELF) glass package: cylindrical, axial-leaded, hermetically sealed. Cathode identified by single black band. No discrete pins-two axial leads; polarity must be observed per marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Current entry terminal under forward bias; connected to lower-potential node in zener mode | Must be held at potential ≤ (cathode – 5.1 V) to maintain regulation; sensitive to PCB trace inductance in fast-switching rails |
| Cathode (banded end) | Current exit terminal under forward bias; connected to higher-potential node in zener mode | Reference output node; requires low-impedance connection to stabilize voltage under dynamic load steps |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| Hermetic glass encapsulation | Eliminates moisture ingress and parametric drift over 20+ years in sealed modules |
| MIL-PRF-19500/435 qualification | Validated for Class B screening including temperature cycling, burn-in, and life test per military standards |
| +6 ppm/°C axial CTE | Enables reliable solder joint integrity on alumina or Kovar-mounted hybrid circuits |
| Low 250 µA test current | Reduces power draw in battery-backed reference dividers and sensor excitation circuits |
| Metallurgical bonding | Prevents interfacial delamination during thermal shock from –65°C to +175°C |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4625UR-1 | Same electrical specs; qualified to JAN/JANTXV levels with extended screening and lot traceability | Required for DoD procurement where MIL-PRF-19500/435 Class S or V is mandated | Select when full military-grade documentation, test reports, and certificate of conformance are contractually required |
| CDLL4625C | Identical package and thermal specs; tighter ±2% zener tolerance (C suffix), higher cost | Suitable for metrology-grade references where 5.1 V ±0.1 V absolute accuracy is critical | Select when system-level calibration budget demands reduced initial tolerance, not just long-term stability |
Compared with CDLL4625, 1N4625UR-1 adds military screening rigor but no electrical improvement, while CDLL4625C trades cost for tighter initial tolerance-neither offers pin compatibility since both share the same DO-213AA form factor and axial lead configuration.

FAQ
What is the zener voltage tolerance for CDLL4625?
The CDLL4625 has a nominal zener voltage of 5.1 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as specified in Note 1 of the manufacturer's datasheet. This tolerance applies under thermal equilibrium at 25°C ±3°C. Tighter tolerances are available via suffix variants: CDLL4625C (±2%) and CDLL4625D (±1%). The CDLL4625 itself does not include a tolerance suffix and defaults to the base ±5% specification.
Is CDLL4625 suitable for surface-mount assembly?
No, CDLL4625 uses a DO-213AA (MELF) axial glass package with two leads extending from opposite ends, making it incompatible with standard SMT reflow processes. It is intended for through-hole or axial surface mounting using specialized tooling and hand-soldering or wave soldering. The "leadless package for surface mount" note in the source document refers to other devices in the family-not CDLL4625.
What is the maximum power dissipation for CDLL4625 at 150°C?
At an end-cap temperature (TEC) of 150°C, CDLL4625's power dissipation must be derated from its 500 mW rating at 125°C. Using the specified derating factor of 10 mW/°C, the allowable power is 500 mW − (150 − 125) × 10 mW = 250 mW. This value assumes proper thermal path design and accounts for the device's 100 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance.
Does CDLL4625 meet MIL-PRF-19500/435 requirements?
Yes, CDLL4625 is manufactured and tested to comply with MIL-PRF-19500/435, the U.S. military specification for semiconductor devices-specifically for Zener diodes. It is listed alongside the 1N4614UR-1 through 1N4627UR-1 series in the specification, and its qualification includes screening for operating temperature range (–65°C to +175°C), hermeticity, and long-term stability per Class B requirements.
How does the thermal impedance (ZJX) of 35 °C/W affect CDLL4625 layout?
The CDLL4625's thermal impedance of 35 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, measured under defined test conditions) indicates its ability to dissipate heat in typical board-mounted configurations. To avoid exceeding the 175°C junction limit, layout must ensure adequate copper area around both leads and minimize thermal isolation. This value complements the 100 °C/W RθJC and informs thermal modeling when ambient temperature exceeds 125°C.
