Product details
Overview
1N5995B_T50R from Fairchild Semiconductor is a 5.89–6.51 V, 5% tolerance, 500 mW glass-passivated Zener diode in DO-35 package, designed for precision voltage regulation and reference in low-power analog circuits, power supply feedback loops, and overvoltage protection clamping at ≤200°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the 1N5995B_T50R datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified Zener voltage range, thermal derating behavior, dynamic impedance at test current, leakage under reverse bias, and validated alternative parts for voltage reference design continuity.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown with tightly controlled VZ (5.89–6.51 V @ IZ = 5 mA), low dynamic impedance (10 Ω @ IZ), and ultra-low knee impedance (1300 Ω @ IZK = 250 µA), enabling stable regulation even under light-load or transient conditions. Its DO-35 glass package ensures hermetic sealing and reliable operation across -65°C to +200°C.
Power dissipation is rated at 500 mW up to 75°C lead temperature, with linear derating of 4.0 mW/°C above that point. Reverse leakage remains ≤1 mA at VR = 4 V, supporting low-current biasing and high-impedance sensing applications without significant error contribution.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 5.89–6.51 V @ IZ = 5 mA - defines precise regulation window for feedback or reference use |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW @ TL ≤ 75°C - sets maximum continuous power handling before thermal derating applies |
| Zener Impedance (ZZ) | 10 Ω @ IZ = 5 mA - ensures minimal output voltage variation under load changes |
| Knee Impedance (ZZK) | 1300 Ω @ IZK = 250 µA - indicates sharpness of breakdown onset for low-current stability |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤1 mA @ VR = 4 V - guarantees negligible current draw in standby or high-Z bias networks |
| Tolerance | ±5% - enables predictable binning and interchangeability within same voltage grade |
| Operating Temp Range | -65°C to +200°C - supports deployment in automotive under-hood, industrial, and aerospace environments |
Pinout & Package

|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener cathode reference ground node | Connected to circuit ground or lower-potential rail when used as shunt regulator |
| Cathode | Reverse-biased Zener terminal / regulated output node | Provides stable voltage referenced to anode; must be biased above anode by ≥VZ |

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Providing stable bias voltage to instrumentation amplifier input stages or ADC reference dividers in sensor signal conditioning. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision DC voltage reference source with minimal drift and noise contribution. Use Value: 5.89–6.51 V range and ±5% tolerance ensure consistent gain scaling and offset correction across production units. |
Use Scenario: Shunt-connected in optocoupler feedback loop of isolated flyback or forward converters to regulate output voltage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary voltage-sensing element setting regulation threshold via TL431 or similar controller. Use Value: Low ZZ (10 Ω) minimizes output voltage deviation during line/load transients, improving cross-regulation. |
| Overvoltage Clamp for Microcontroller I/O | ESD Protection Pre-Regulator Stage |
Use Scenario: Connected between MCU GPIO pin and ground to clamp ESD or surge events exceeding 6.5 V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-acting shunt limiter absorbing transient energy before IC damage occurs.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4734A (ON Semiconductor) | 6.2 V nominal, ±5%, 1.0 W rating, DO-41 package | Higher power rating suits higher-current regulation; larger DO-41 footprint requires PCB redesign | Select when >500 mW dissipation or longer thermal time constants are required |
| BZX55C6V2 (Vishay) | 6.2 V nominal, ±5%, 500 mW, DO-35 package, 10 Ω ZZ, but 100 nA leakage @ 4 V | Lower leakage improves high-impedance bias networks; identical footprint enables drop-in replacement | Prefer for ultra-low-power sensor nodes where sub-µA leakage is critical |
Compared with 1N5995B_T50R, the 1N4734A offers higher power headroom at the cost of board space, while the BZX55C6V2 matches the DO-35 form factor and regulation performance but delivers 1000× lower leakage-making it ideal for battery-critical designs where 1N5995B_T50R's 1 mA IR may introduce measurable error.

FAQ
What is the nominal Zener voltage of the 1N5995B_T50R?
The 1N5995B_T50R has a nominal Zener voltage of 6.2 V, with a guaranteed range of 5.89 V to 6.51 V at a test current of 5 mA. This specification is defined per Fairchild's 1N5985B–1N6025B datasheet Rev. C2 and reflects the device's calibrated regulation point under standard thermal conditions. The 1N5995B_T50R achieves this performance in its DO-35 glass package with ±5% tolerance.
Does the 1N5995B_T50R have a specified forward voltage?
Yes-the 1N5995B_T50R has a maximum forward voltage (VF) of 1.2 V at a forward current (IF) of 200 mA, as stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the Fairchild datasheet. While primarily used in reverse breakdown, this VF value confirms diode functionality in forward conduction mode and supports use in polarity protection or OR-ing configurations where needed.
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for the 1N5995B_T50R?
The 1N5995B_T50R is rated for an operating junction temperature range of -65°C to +200°C, matching its storage temperature specification. This wide range is enabled by the DO-35 glass package and internal construction, making the 1N5995B_T50R suitable for under-hood automotive, downhole industrial, and high-ambient military applications where thermal resilience is critical.
How does the 1N5995B_T50R handle power derating above 75°C?
The 1N5995B_T50R derates linearly at 4.0 mW/°C above a lead temperature of 75°C, reducing its maximum power dissipation from 500 mW. For example, at 105°C lead temperature, allowable PD drops to 380 mW. This derating curve is defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section and must be applied in thermal design to prevent premature failure or VZ drift in the 1N5995B_T50R.
Is the 1N5995B_T50R RoHS compliant?
The 1N5995B_T50R is manufactured to meet RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements, as confirmed by Fairchild's product compliance documentation and material declarations. Lead-free soldering compatibility is supported, and the DO-35 glass package contains no restricted substances above threshold limits-ensuring the 1N5995B_T50R meets environmental standards for commercial and industrial deployment.
