Product details
Overview
1N4749A-T from Diodes Incorporated is a 1.0 W, 24 V ±5% glass-passivated Zener diode in DO-41 package, with 25 Ω zener impedance at 10.5 mA test current, 18.2 V minimum knee voltage, and -65°C to +175°C operating temperature range; used for precision voltage regulation and overvoltage protection in power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4749A-T datasheet, 1N4749A-T pinout, 1N4749A-T application, or 1N4749A-T equivalent, key selection criteria include nominal zener voltage (24 V), power rating (1.0 W), zener impedance (25 Ω), temperature coefficient (+0.06 to +0.095 %/°C), and DO-41 mechanical compatibility with through-hole PCB assembly.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage under varying load and temperature conditions. Its 24 V nominal zener voltage is specified at 10.5 mA test current (IZT), with sharp knee characteristics confirmed by dual-point impedance measurement per JEDEC standards.
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient (+0.06 to +0.095 %/°C), enabling predictable voltage drift across industrial temperature ranges. Thermal resistance junction-to-ambient is 175 °C/W at 50°C ambient, derating linearly at 6.67 mW/°C above that point.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

FAQ
What is the maximum surge current rating for 1N4749A-T?
The 1N4749A-T is rated for 190 A peak surge current under an 8.3 ms single half-sine wave condition, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value reflects its capability to absorb transient energy without parametric shift or failure, validated per industry-standard surge test protocols.
Is 1N4749A-T RoHS compliant?
Yes - the 1N4749A-T features a Sn96.5Ag3.5 lead finish and complies with EU Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS), including applicable exemptions for glass and high-temperature solder as noted in the datasheet's footnote 2.
How does the temperature coefficient affect regulation accuracy?
With a +0.06 to +0.095 %/°C temperature coefficient, the 1N4749A-T's zener voltage increases by approximately 14.4–22.8 mV per °C rise from 25°C. This must be factored into system-level tolerance budgets for applications operating across wide temperature ranges.
Can 1N4749A-T replace 1N4749A-A in the same footprint?
Yes - both variants share identical DO-41 glass package dimensions, electrical specifications, and thermal characteristics; only packaging differs (tape-and-reel vs. ammo pack). Mechanical fit, soldering profile, and circuit performance are fully interchangeable.
