Product details
Overview
1N5249B_T50A from ON Semiconductor is a 19 V ±5% Zener diode in DO-35 glass package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at 25°C, with 23 Ω dynamic impedance at 19 mA test current and 0.1 μA reverse leakage at 15.2 V. It serves as a precision voltage reference or overvoltage clamp in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5249B_T50A datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal coefficient (+0.085 %/°C), junction temperature range (–65 to +200°C), and DO-35 mechanical compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load or supply conditions. Its 19 V nominal Zener voltage is specified at IZ = 19 mA, with guaranteed min/max bounds of 18.05 V and 19.95 V at 25°C.
The diode exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of +0.085 %/°C, indicating voltage increases with rising junction temperature - critical for biasing stability in temperature-sensitive references. It uses a hermetically sealed DO-35 glass package with cathode band marking and 0.137 g mass per JEDEC DO-204AH standard.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 19 V nominal, 18.05–19.95 V range at IZ = 19 mA - defines precise clamping/reference point |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW at TA = 25°C - sets maximum continuous DC power handling |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 23 Ω at IZ = 19 mA - determines voltage regulation stiffness under load variation |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 μA max at VR = 15.2 V - ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference nodes |
| Temperature Coefficient | +0.085 %/°C - quantifies voltage drift per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature |
| Package | DO-35 glass, hermetically sealed - provides reliable long-term stability and moisture resistance |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 glass axial package: anode and cathode leads extend from opposite ends of cylindrical glass body; cathode identified by color band near one lead end. Leads are tinned copper-clad steel, 0.46 mm diameter, 25.4 mm minimum length (T50).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry / Reverse breakdown return path | Connected to lower-potential node in Zener configuration; carries full load current during regulation |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / Reverse breakdown voltage reference terminal | Marked with color band; connected to regulated output node; defines reference potential in shunt regulator |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4742A | 12 V nominal, 1 W rating, DO-41 package, 22 Ω ZZ at 21 mA | Higher power, lower voltage - unsuitable for 19 V reference but better for 12 V rail clamping | Select only if system requires ≥1 W dissipation and 12 V regulation; not a direct replacement for 1N5249B_T50A |
| BZX55C18 | 18 V nominal, ±5%, DO-35, 500 mW, 25 Ω ZZ at 5 mA | Lower Zener voltage, higher ZZ at lower test current - less stable under variable load | Acceptable where 18 V tolerance is acceptable and load current stays near 5 mA; verify thermal drift match |
Compared with 1N4742A and BZX55C18, the 1N5249B_T50A delivers tighter voltage control at 19 V with superior low-current impedance behavior and DO-35 footprint compatibility for space-constrained designs requiring exact 19 V reference stability.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N5249B_T50A?
The 1N5249B_T50A has a ±5% Zener voltage tolerance, resulting in a guaranteed range of 18.05 V to 19.95 V at 25°C and IZ = 19 mA. This tolerance is laser-trimmed during manufacturing and applies across the full operating junction temperature range of –65°C to +200°C.
Does 1N5249B_T50A have a specified forward voltage?
Yes, the 1N5249B_T50A specifies a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.2 V at IF = 200 mA. This value is relevant when the device is used in forward conduction mode, such as in polarity protection or LED driver bias paths, though its primary function is reverse-biased Zener operation.
What is the thermal derating behavior of 1N5249B_T50A above 50°C?
The 1N5249B_T50A derates linearly at 4.0 mW/°C above 50°C ambient temperature. Starting from its 500 mW rating at 25°C, usable power drops to 400 mW at 75°C and 300 mW at 100°C - critical for thermal design in enclosed industrial enclosures.
Can 1N5249B_T50A be used in surface-mount designs?
No, the 1N5249B_T50A is packaged exclusively in the axial DO-35 glass case and is not compatible with SMT reflow or wave soldering. For surface-mount equivalents, consider ON Semiconductor's NZ9F18V or similar SOD-123 Zener diodes - but note these differ in voltage, package, and thermal performance.
What does the "T50A" suffix indicate in 1N5249B_T50A?
The "T50A" suffix denotes lead length specification: T50 indicates minimum 25.4 mm lead length per JEDEC DO-204AH standard, and "A" identifies a specific lead finish and packaging variant per ON Semiconductor's internal ordering nomenclature - confirmed in official ON Semi documentation for the 1N52xxB family.
