Product details
Overview
1N4749A-T50R from ON Semiconductor is a 24 V, 1 W axial-leaded Zener diode in DO-41 glass package, rated for ±5% tolerance, 10.5 Ω dynamic impedance at 11.4 mA test current, and 5 μA leakage at 19.2 V reverse voltage. It regulates voltage in low-power reference and protection circuits, including power supply feedback loops and overvoltage clamp stages.
For engineers reviewing the 1N4749A-T50R datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage accuracy, thermal derating (6.67 mW/°C above 50°C), junction temperature range (–65°C to +200°C), and non-repetitive peak reverse surge capability (190 mA).
Technical Context
The 1N4749A-T50R operates as a silicon planar Zener diode with sharp reverse breakdown at nominal 24 V, designed for stable DC voltage regulation under fixed-current bias. Its 1 W power dissipation is specified at lead temperature ≤50°C with 3/8″ lead length, and it exhibits 10.5 Ω Zener impedance (ZZ) at IZ = 11.4 mA.
It features a maximum leakage current of 5 μA at VR = 19.2 V, a knee impedance (ZZK) of 25 Ω at IZK = 0.25 mA, and withstands non-repetitive peak reverse currents up to 190 mA (8.3 ms square wave). The device is optimized for general-purpose voltage reference and transient suppression where precision and reliability outweigh ultra-low noise or fast response requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 22 V min / 24 V typ / 25.2 V max - defines regulated output voltage under 11.4 mA test current with ±5% tolerance. |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 1.0 W @ TL ≤ 50°C - sets maximum continuous power handling before thermal derating begins. |
| Zener Impedance (ZZ) | 10.5 Ω @ IZ = 11.4 mA - indicates voltage regulation stiffness; lower values yield tighter regulation under load variation. |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 5 μA @ VR = 19.2 V - quantifies off-state conduction; critical for low-power standby circuits. |
| Operating Temperature | –65°C to +200°C - supports deployment in automotive engine compartments, industrial controls, and high-reliability environments. |
| Non-Repetitive Peak Reverse Current | 190 mA (8.3 ms) - defines surge immunity for transient overvoltage clamping without failure. |
Pinout & Package
1N4749A-T50R uses a DO-41 glass axial package with cathode indicated by a single color band. It has two terminals: anode and cathode. No PCB footprint or thermal pad; leads are tinned copper-clad steel, intended for through-hole mounting with 3/8″ lead length standard for power rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal | Connected to lower-potential side in reverse-bias regulation; carries full load current during Zener operation. |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal | Marked with color band; connected to higher-potential side; defines regulated voltage reference point relative to anode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±5% Zener voltage tolerance | Enables predictable regulation without post-manufacturing trimming in cost-sensitive applications. |
| 1 W power rating with defined thermal derating | Supports stable operation up to 50°C ambient without heatsinking; linear derating ensures safe margin beyond that point. |
| Low leakage (5 μA @ 19.2 V) | Minimizes quiescent current loss in battery-powered or energy-harvesting reference circuits. |
| DO-41 glass package with axial leads | Provides mechanical robustness, hermetic seal against moisture, and compatibility with legacy through-hole assembly processes. |
Applications
| Power Supply Feedback Reference | Overvoltage Clamp Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used in the optocoupler feedback path of isolated AC/DC flyback converters to maintain ±5% output voltage regulation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage reference element providing stable 24 V threshold for TL431 or similar shunt regulator control. Use Value: Maintains regulation accuracy across line/load variations and temperature drift due to tight VZ tolerance and low ZZ. |

| Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning | Automotive Body Control Module Reference |
Use Scenario: Provides stable bias voltage for analog front-end op-amps measuring 4–20 mA loop current in PLC I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision DC reference source ensuring consistent gain and offset calibration across temperature. Use Value: –65°C to +200°C operating range and low thermal coefficient enable reliable performance in unheated enclosures. |
Use Scenario: Supplies regulated 24 V reference to window lift motor controllers and door lock actuators in 24 V vehicle systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone voltage stabilizer compensating for battery voltage fluctuations (18–32 V). Use Value: Withstands under-hood temperatures and load dump transients while maintaining regulation within ±5%. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4749A (no suffix) | Identical electrical specs; same DO-41 package; differs only in packaging format (T50R = tape-and-reel, standard = bulk/ammopack). | No functional difference; suitable for identical use cases including automated SMT placement (T50R) vs. manual/hand-soldered prototyping (bulk). | Select 1N4749A-T50R for pick-and-place assembly; choose 1N4749A for low-volume evaluation or repair. |
| BZX55C24 | Same 24 V nominal Zener voltage and ±5% tolerance, but rated at 500 mW (not 1 W); DO-35 package (smaller, lower thermal mass). | Not suitable for 1 W continuous dissipation; limited to lower-power references or signal-level clamping where thermal budget is constrained. | Use BZX55C24 only if power demand stays below 400 mW and board space is critical; otherwise, 1N4749A-T50R provides superior thermal margin. |
Compared with 1N4749A-T50R, the unsuffixed 1N4749A offers identical performance in different packaging, while BZX55C24 trades power capability for smaller size-making the former ideal for production automation and the latter viable only in thermally restricted, sub-500 mW designs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N4749A-T50R?
The 1N4749A-T50R has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, with a nominal value of 24 V, minimum of 22 V, and maximum of 25.2 V at 11.4 mA test current. This tolerance is guaranteed per ON Semiconductor's 1N4728A–1N4758A datasheet Rev. 8, and applies across the full operating temperature range. The 1N4749A-T50R maintains this specification without binning or sorting.
Can the 1N4749A-T50R be used in surface-mount designs?
No-the 1N4749A-T50R is packaged in the DO-41 axial leaded glass case and is not a surface-mount device. It requires through-hole mounting with 3/8″ lead length for rated 1 W power dissipation. For SMT alternatives, consider the MMBZ5249BS (SOT-23, 24 V, 225 mW) or BZX84-C24 (SOT-23, 24 V, 300 mW), but note their lower power ratings and different thermal behavior versus the 1N4749A-T50R.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for the 1N4749A-T50R?
The 1N4749A-T50R has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +200°C and a storage temperature range of –65°C to +200°C. Thermal design must ensure that actual junction temperature remains within this limit under worst-case power dissipation and ambient conditions. Derating begins at 50°C lead temperature, reducing power by 6.67 mW/°C above that point.
How does the 1N4749A-T50R compare to the 1N4748A in terms of Zener voltage?
The 1N4749A-T50R has a nominal Zener voltage of 24 V (22–25.2 V), whereas the 1N4748A is rated at 22 V (20.9–23.1 V). Both share identical package (DO-41), power rating (1 W), tolerance (±5%), and thermal specifications. The 1N4749A-T50R is not a drop-in replacement for the 1N4748A unless the circuit is specifically designed for 24 V regulation-voltage mismatch may cause over-regulation or instability.
Is the 1N4749A-T50R RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes-the 1N4749A-T50R meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is halogen-free per ON Semiconductor's product compliance documentation. The DO-41 glass package contains no lead in solderable terminations (lead-free tinning), and all materials comply with JEDEC J-STD-609A Class 1 for marking and IPC-1752 for substance declaration. Full compliance data is available in ON Semiconductor's PPAP documentation for the 1N47xxA family.
