Product details
Overview
1N750A_T50R from Fairchild Semiconductor is a 4.7 V ±5% silicon Zener diode in DO-35 glass package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at TL ≤ 75°C, with 19 Ω dynamic impedance at 20 mA and 30 µA reverse leakage at 1 V, used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N750A_T50R datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance, thermal derating behavior, cathode-band polarity marking, and DO-35 mechanical compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a two-terminal voltage-regulating diode relying on controlled reverse breakdown. Its 4.7 V nominal zener voltage is specified at 20 mA test current with ±5% tolerance, and its 19 Ω dynamic impedance ensures stable regulation under small-signal load variations.
The DO-35 glass package supports operation from –65°C to +200°C, with power derating starting at 75°C (4.0 mW/°C), and features a visible cathode band for unambiguous polarity identification during manual assembly or inspection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 4.47–4.94 V at IZ = 20 mA; defines precise clamping threshold for reference or protection circuits |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 19 Ω max at IZ = 20 mA; determines regulation stiffness against current fluctuations |
| Max Reverse Leakage (IR) | 30 µA at VR = 1 V; limits standby current in high-impedance bias networks |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW at TL ≤ 75°C; sets absolute thermal limit for continuous DC operation |
| Operating Temp Range | –65°C to +200°C; enables use in automotive under-hood or industrial high-temp environments |
| Tolerance | ±5%; guarantees voltage accuracy without post-selection or trimming |
| Forward Voltage (VF) | ≤1.5 V at IF = 200 mA; supports bidirectional transient suppression when used with series resistor |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N750A (ON Semiconductor) | Identical VZ, ZZ, and DO-35 package; same ±5% tolerance but IR = 2 µA @ 1 V (lower leakage) | Better suited for ultra-low-power bias networks where sub-5 µA leakage is critical | Select 1N750A_T50R for legacy Fairchild sourcing continuity; choose ON Semi 1N750A only if leakage reduction justifies dual-source qualification |
| BZX55-C4V7 (Vishay) | Same 4.7 V nominal, ±5% tolerance, DO-35 package; ZZ = 20 Ω (vs. 19 Ω), PD = 500 mW, TJ = –65°C to +175°C (vs. +200°C) | Approved for AEC-Q200 stress testing; preferred for new automotive designs requiring qualification evidence | Use BZX55-C4V7 when AEC-Q200 compliance documentation is mandatory; retain 1N750A_T50R for non-automotive industrial reuse |
Compared with ON Semiconductor's 1N750A and Vishay's BZX55-C4V7, the 1N750A_T50R offers identical electrical regulation performance and DO-35 form factor but provides superior high-temperature capability (+200°C vs. +175°C) and established legacy design-in history in Fairchild-based systems.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for 1N750A_T50R at 20 mA?
The 1N750A_T50R has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 4.47 V to 4.94 V when tested at 20 mA and 25°C ambient, reflecting its ±5% tolerance specification. This range remains valid across its full operating temperature span due to inherent process-controlled doping uniformity, and is measured with thermal equilibrium at 30°C lead temperature per Fairchild Rev. D1 test conditions.
Does 1N750A_T50R have a defined forward voltage specification?
Yes, the 1N750A_T50R specifies a maximum forward voltage of 1.5 V at 200 mA forward current. This parameter supports bidirectional transient suppression use cases where the diode conducts in forward bias during negative transients, and confirms low-conduction-loss behavior consistent with standard silicon PN junction characteristics.
How is polarity marked on the 1N750A_T50R DO-35 package?
The 1N750A_T50R uses a single black cathode band on the DO-35 glass body to identify the cathode terminal. Per Fairchild marking standards, this band aligns with the third line of top-marking ("A") and corresponds to the terminal delivering the regulated 4.7 V output when reverse-biased - a critical visual cue for correct orientation during manual soldering or automated optical inspection.
What is the power derating behavior of 1N750A_T50R above 75°C?
The 1N750A_T50R derates linearly at 4.0 mW/°C above 75°C lead temperature, reducing its maximum allowable power dissipation from 500 mW at 75°C to 400 mW at 100°C and 200 mW at 125°C. This derating curve is defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and must be applied using actual measured lead temperature, not ambient, to ensure safe long-term operation.
Is 1N750A_T50R suitable for use in life support devices?
No, 1N750A_T50R is not authorized for use in life support devices or systems. As stated in Fairchild's Life Support Policy, these components require express written approval for such applications. The 1N750A_T50R is intended for industrial, automotive, and consumer applications where failure does not directly endanger human life or cause catastrophic system failure.
