Product details
Overview
1N4748A_T50R from ON Semiconductor is a 22 V, 1 W axial-leaded Zener diode in DO-41 glass package, rated for ±5% tolerance, 11.5 Ω dynamic impedance at 19 mA test current, and 0.25 μA leakage at 16.7 V reverse voltage. It regulates voltage in low-power DC supplies, reference circuits, and overvoltage protection for microcontroller I/O lines.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4748A_T50R datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy (22 V ±5%), power derating above 50°C (6.67 mW/°C), thermal stability (−65°C to +200°C), and DO-41 mechanical compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon planar Zener diode optimized for stable voltage regulation in linear power supplies and precision biasing networks. Its 22 V nominal breakdown voltage is specified at 19 mA test current, with 11.5 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZ) ensuring minimal output variation under load changes.
The 1N4748A_T50R exhibits low leakage (≤0.25 μA at VR = 16.7 V), supports non-repetitive peak reverse surge up to 205 mA, and maintains operation across −65°C to +200°C junction temperature range-enabling use in industrial and automotive ambient environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 22 V ±5% at IZ = 19 mA - defines precise regulation point for feedback loops and reference generation |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 1.0 W @ TL ≤ 50°C, 3/8″ lead length - sets maximum continuous power handling in standard mounting |
| Zener Impedance (ZZ) | 11.5 Ω @ IZ = 19 mA - determines output voltage deviation under varying load current |
| Leakage Current (IR) | ≤0.25 μA @ VR = 16.7 V - ensures minimal quiescent current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Operating Temperature | −65°C to +200°C - enables deployment in extended-temperature industrial and under-hood automotive applications |
| Thermal Derating | 6.67 mW/°C above 50°C - guides heatsinking requirements for sustained operation at elevated ambient |
Pinout & Package
DO-41 glass axial package with cathode indicated by color band; two-terminal device requiring no orientation-specific PCB footprint beyond standard 0.4" lead spacing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference ground | Connected to circuit ground or lower-potential node when used in reverse-biased regulation configuration |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / regulated output node | Connected to input supply; delivers stable 22 V to load when reverse biased above VZ |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±5% Zener voltage tolerance | Enables predictable regulation without post-manufacture trimming in cost-sensitive consumer and industrial designs |
| 1 W power rating with defined derating curve | Supports robust transient handling in unregulated DC adapters and battery-backed systems |
| Low 0.25 μA leakage at 16.7 V | Minimizes error in high-resistance voltage divider references and low-power sensor biasing |
| DO-41 glass package with axial leads | Ensures compatibility with legacy wave-solder and hand-solder assembly processes and automated tape-and-reel feeding |
| −65°C to +200°C operating range | Validates use in engine control units, industrial PLCs, and outdoor power electronics without derating penalties |
Applications
| DC Power Supply Regulation | Microcontroller I/O Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Stabilizing unregulated 24 V rail to generate clean 22 V reference for analog front-end circuitry. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zener diode operating in reverse breakdown to clamp and regulate output voltage. Use Value: Delivers stable 22 V ±5% with 11.5 Ω dynamic impedance, reducing ripple sensitivity compared to higher-Z alternatives. |
Use Scenario: Clamping 3.3 V or 5 V MCU GPIO pins against ESD or overvoltage transients from external sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Passive voltage limiter placed between I/O line and ground to shunt excess energy. Use Value: Low 0.25 μA leakage preserves signal integrity; 205 mA non-repetitive surge rating absorbs typical HBM ESD events. |
| Precision Voltage Reference | Industrial Sensor Biasing |
Use Scenario: Providing excitation voltage for resistive bridge sensors (e.g., strain gauges) in weigh-scale modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stable DC reference source in ratiometric measurement chains. Use Value: Tight 5% tolerance and low tempco (implied by −65°C to +200°C range) maintain measurement accuracy across environmental extremes. |
Use Scenario: Biasing thermistor or RTD interface circuits in HVAC controllers and process monitoring equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fixed-voltage source establishing known current through sensing element. Use Value: 1 W rating accommodates long-duration bias currents; DO-41 package allows easy replacement during field maintenance. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4748A (no suffix) | Same electrical specs; identical DO-41 package; differs only in packaging format (T50R = tape-and-reel, standard part = bulk or ammo pack) | No functional difference; suitable for same PCB layouts and thermal environments | Select 1N4748A_T50R for automated SMT placement; choose bulk-packaged 1N4748A for manual or wave-solder assembly |
| BZX55C22 | 22 V ±5%, 500 mW rating, DO-35 package - lower power, smaller footprint, higher thermal resistance | Not recommended for 1 W continuous loads; limited to low-current references and signal clamping | Choose BZX55C22 only when board space is constrained and power dissipation remains below 500 mW |
Compared with 1N4748A_T50R, the unsuffixed 1N4748A offers identical performance in alternate packaging, while BZX55C22 trades 500 mW power capability and DO-35 size for reduced thermal margin-making it unsuitable for sustained 1 W operation but viable for compact, low-power biasing.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4748A_T50R?
The 1N4748A_T50R has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% at 22 V nominal, measured at 19 mA test current and 25°C ambient. This tolerance is guaranteed per ON Semiconductor's 1N4728A–1N4758A datasheet Rev. 8, and applies directly to the 1N4748A_T50R as a tape-and-reel variant of the base 1N4748A device.
Can the 1N4748A_T50R be used in surface-mount designs?
No-the 1N4748A_T50R uses a DO-41 axial glass package with 0.4" lead spacing, intended for through-hole mounting. It is not compatible with SMT reflow or pick-and-place processes. For surface-mount equivalents, consider SOD-123 or SOD-323 packaged Zeners like MMBZ5242B, but note these differ in power rating and regulation characteristics from the 1N4748A_T50R.
What is the maximum non-repetitive peak reverse current for the 1N4748A_T50R?
The 1N4748A_T50R supports a non-repetitive peak reverse current (IZSM) of 205 mA, specified for an 8.3 ms square-wave surge per ON Semiconductor's datasheet. This rating enables the 1N4748A_T50R to absorb transient overvoltages in power supply inputs and I/O protection circuits without degradation.
How does thermal derating apply to the 1N4748A_T50R?
The 1N4748A_T50R must be derated at 6.67 mW/°C above a lead temperature of 50°C. For example, at 100°C lead temperature, its usable power drops to 0.667 W. This linear derating curve is defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and applies directly to the 1N4748A_T50R due to its DO-41 package construction and thermal path.
Is the 1N4748A_T50R RoHS compliant?
Yes-the 1N4748A_T50R meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements as confirmed by ON Semiconductor's official compliance documentation. The device contains no lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), and is marked accordingly on packaging and datasheets for the 1N47xxA family.
