Product details
Overview
1N6009B_T50R from Fairchild Semiconductor is a 22.8 V ±5% Zener diode in DO-35 glass package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at TL ≤ 75°C with 4.0 mW/°C derating, 62 mA maximum Zener current (IZM), and 600 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZ) at 5 mA test current - used for precision voltage regulation in low-power analog reference and overvoltage protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N6009B_T50R datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal limits, leakage behavior at 18 V reverse bias, forward voltage ≤1.2 V at 200 mA, and DO-35 mechanical interface details required for board-level validation and BOM selection.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown to maintain stable voltage across load variations, with specified Zener voltage tolerance of ±5% and guaranteed performance over -65°C to +200°C junction temperature range. Its 600 Ω impedance at 5 mA ensures predictable regulation under light-load conditions.
The device uses a glass-passivated DO-35 axial package with cathode band marking, supporting lead-free soldering and meeting JEDEC DO-35 mechanical standards. Forward conduction is characterized by VF ≤ 1.2 V at IF = 200 mA, enabling bidirectional circuit analysis where forward conduction may occur during transient events.
Key Specifications

| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW at TL ≤ 75°C - sets maximum continuous thermal load before derating applies |
| Zener Impedance (ZZ) | 600 Ω at IZ = 5 mA - determines AC regulation sensitivity and ripple rejection capability |
| Max Zener Current (IZM) | 62 mA - establishes absolute DC current limit before thermal runaway risk increases |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 0.1 mA at VR = 18 V - quantifies off-state conduction affecting high-impedance bias networks |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤1.2 V at IF = 200 mA - defines voltage drop during forward conduction, relevant for clamping or dual-direction protection |
| Operating Temp Range | -65°C to +200°C - supports deployment in automotive under-hood, industrial motor control, and aerospace environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N6009RLG | Same 22.8 V Zener voltage, DO-35 package, but RoHS-compliant lead finish and tape-and-reel packaging | No functional difference; optimized for automated SMT assembly rather than manual through-hole prototyping | Select 1N6009RLG for volume production requiring RoHS compliance and pick-and-place compatibility |
| BZX55-C24 | 24 V nominal Zener voltage (±5%), same DO-35 package, 500 mW rating, but higher ZZ = 80 Ω at 5 mA | Higher regulation accuracy due to lower impedance, but 5.3% higher nominal voltage shifts reference point | Select BZX55-C24 only if system tolerances allow 24 V instead of 22.8 V and tighter regulation is prioritized over exact voltage match |
Compared with 1N6009B_T50R, 1N6009RLG offers identical electrical performance with enhanced manufacturability, while BZX55-C24 trades exact voltage alignment for improved dynamic regulation - choice depends on whether voltage accuracy or impedance performance dominates the design requirement.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance for 1N6009B_T50R?
The 1N6009B_T50R has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±5%, meaning its actual breakdown voltage falls between 21.66 V and 23.94 V when measured at 5 mA test current and TL = 30°C ± 1°C. This tolerance is confirmed in the Fairchild 1N5985B–1N6025B datasheet Rev. C2, Table on page 2, and applies directly to the 1N6009B_T50R variant as part of the defined family specification.
Does 1N6009B_T50R support high-temperature operation?
Yes, the 1N6009B_T50R is rated for operation from -65°C to +200°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the Fairchild datasheet. This wide junction temperature range makes it suitable for under-hood automotive electronics, industrial motor drives, and downhole oilfield equipment where ambient temperatures exceed 125°C.
What is the forward voltage of 1N6009B_T50R?
The forward voltage (VF) of the 1N6009B_T50R is specified as ≤1.2 V at a forward current (IF) of 200 mA. This parameter is documented on page 2 of the Fairchild 1N5985B–1N6025B datasheet Rev. C2 and reflects the diode's conduction behavior when used in bidirectional protection or clamping configurations.
How is the cathode identified on 1N6009B_T50R?
The cathode of the 1N6009B_T50R is marked by a visible color band on the DO-35 glass body, consistent with industry-standard polarity marking for axial-leaded Zener diodes. This marking is explicitly noted in the "General Requirements" section on page 4 of the Fairchild datasheet and must be aligned toward the lower-potential side of the circuit during placement.
What is the maximum Zener current (IZM) for 1N6009B_T50R?
The maximum Zener current (IZM) for 1N6009B_T50R is 62 mA, as listed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 2 of the Fairchild datasheet. This value represents the peak DC current the device can sustain continuously at 22.8 V without exceeding its 500 mW power limit under thermal equilibrium conditions at TL ≤ 75°C.
