Product details
Overview
1N4741G from Taiwan Semiconductor is a 1 W, 11 V ±5% Zener diode in DO-41 glass package, designed for precision voltage regulation and reference applications with 8 Ω dynamic impedance at 23 mA test current and 5 µA leakage at 8.4 V reverse bias.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4741G datasheet, 1N4741G pinout, 1N4741G application, or 1N4741G equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, power dissipation limit, thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W), junction temperature range (–65 to +200 °C), and DO-41 mechanical compatibility.
Technical Context
The 1N4741G operates as a single-die, hermetically sealed silicon Zener diode optimized for stable DC voltage clamping and low-noise reference generation in linear regulator feedback paths and analog sensing circuits.
It exhibits a nominal Zener voltage of 11 V at 23 mA (IZT), with dynamic impedance of 8 Ω measured under AC superposition conditions, and maintains ≤5 µA leakage current at 8.4 V (0.76 × VZ) across its rated temperature range.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VZ (Nominal) | 11 V - precise clamping voltage at IZT = 23 mA |
| VZ Tolerance | ±5% - ensures voltage consistency across production lots |
| PD | 1 W - maximum continuous power dissipation at TA = 25 °C |
| ZZT | 8 Ω - low dynamic impedance enables stable regulation under load variation |
| IR @ VR | 5 µA @ 8.4 V - minimal leakage preserves accuracy in high-impedance reference nodes |
| TJ Range | –65 to +200 °C - supports operation in automotive under-hood and industrial environments |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - defines thermal derating curve for PCB layout and heatsinking |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4741A | Same 11 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, but manufactured by ON Semiconductor in DO-41; RθJA = 110 °C/W | Slightly higher thermal resistance limits power handling in compact layouts | Preferred where ON Semi supply chain alignment is required |
| BZX55C11 | 11 V ±5%, 500 mW rating, DO-35 package; ZZT = 20 Ω at 5 mA | Lower power and higher impedance reduce regulation accuracy in 23 mA load scenarios | Used where space-constrained PCBs favor smaller DO-35 footprint |
Compared with 1N4741A and BZX55C11, the 1N4741G offers superior thermal performance (RθJA = 100 °C/W) and lower dynamic impedance (8 Ω), making it optimal for 1 W continuous regulation at 23 mA where stability and temperature resilience are critical.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N4741G?
The 1N4741G has a nominal Zener voltage of 11 V with a standard tolerance of ±5%, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 10.45 V and 11.55 V at 23 mA test current and 25 °C ambient temperature. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table of the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet Version G2301.
What is the maximum power dissipation rating for the 1N4741G?
The 1N4741G is rated for 1 W maximum continuous power dissipation at 25 °C ambient temperature. Derating is required above 25 °C at 10 mW/°C, based on its specified RθJA of 100 °C/W. This rating applies only when mounted on a standard FR-4 PCB with no additional heatsinking.
What package type does the 1N4741G use, and how is polarity indicated?
The 1N4741G uses the DO-41 axial-leaded glass package. Polarity is indicated by a visible cathode band near one end of the glass body; the banded end corresponds to the cathode terminal, which must be connected to the higher-potential side in Zener operation.
What is the Zener impedance (ZZT) of the 1N4741G, and under what conditions is it measured?
The 1N4741G has a typical Zener impedance (ZZT) of 8 Ω, measured at the test current IZT = 23 mA using a 60 Hz AC signal with RMS amplitude equal to 10% of IZT, superimposed on the DC bias - per the methodology defined in the Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet notes.
Is the 1N4741G RoHS compliant, and what plating is used on its leads?
Yes, the 1N4741G is RoHS compliant. Its leads are pure tin plated and meet J-STD-002 solderability requirements, ensuring reliable wetting and joint formation during reflow or wave soldering processes without lead or restricted substance content.
