Product details
Overview
1N755D-1 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 7.5 V ±1% tolerance silicon Zener diode in DO-35 glass axial package, qualified to JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, with dynamic impedance of 4 Ω at 50 mA and temperature coefficient of +0.058 %/°C - used for precision voltage regulation in military power supply reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N755D-1 datasheet, 1N755D-1 pinout, 1N755D-1 application, or 1N755D-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its tight 1% Zener tolerance, JANTXV radiation-hardened qualification, low 4 Ω dynamic impedance at IZT = 50 mA, -65°C to +175°C operating range, and DO-35 hermetic glass package suitability for high-reliability analog references.
Technical Context
The 1N755D-1 operates as a reverse-biased voltage reference diode with nominal Zener voltage of 7.5 V at 50 mA test current (IZT). Its positive temperature coefficient (+0.058 %/°C) ensures stable regulation above 25°C, and its 4 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZT) supports low-noise error correction in feedback loops.
Designed for MIL-PRF-19500/127 JANTXV compliance, it features internal metallurgical bonding, RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating (commercial grade only), and cathode band polarity marking. It delivers 50 mA maximum Zener current (IZM) at 400 mW derated power on PCB, with thermal resistance RθJA = 300 °C/W.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N755A-1 | ±5% Zener tolerance vs. 1N755D-1's ±1%; same DO-35 package and 7.5 V nominal | Suitable for non-critical biasing where calibration compensates for tolerance spread | Select 1N755A-1 when cost sensitivity outweighs precision requirements |
| SMF7.5A | Surface-mount SOD-123 package; 7.5 V ±5%, 400 W peak pulse power, not MIL-qualified | Used in commercial-grade consumer power supplies, not radiation- or temperature-hardened systems | Choose SMF7.5A only for space-constrained, non-military PCB layouts with relaxed reliability demands |
Compared with 1N755A-1 and SMF7.5A, the 1N755D-1 uniquely combines 1% tolerance, JANTXV qualification, and DO-35 hermetic packaging - making it irreplaceable for high-reliability analog references where parameter stability, radiation hardness, and military traceability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N755D-1?
The 1N755D-1 has a Zener voltage tolerance of ±1%, denoted by the "D" suffix in its part number per Microsemi's nomenclature. This tight tolerance ensures the actual Zener voltage remains within 7.425 V to 7.575 V at 50 mA test current and 25°C, critical for high-accuracy reference designs where post-manufacturing calibration is impractical.
Is the 1N755D-1 qualified to JANTXV level?
Yes, the 1N755D-1 is qualified to JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, confirmed in Microsemi's T4-LDS-0288 datasheet. This qualification includes rigorous testing for temperature cycling, mechanical shock, vibration, and long-term life reliability - making the 1N755D-1 suitable for mission-critical aerospace and defense applications where failure is not an option.
What is the dynamic impedance of the 1N755D-1 and why does it matter?
The 1N755D-1 exhibits a dynamic impedance (ZZT) of 4 Ω at IZT = 50 mA. This low value means the output voltage varies less than 200 mV for a 50 mA load step, directly improving regulation accuracy in feedback circuits. In practice, this allows the 1N755D-1 to maintain stable reference performance even under dynamic current conditions typical in precision analog signal chains.
Can the 1N755D-1 be used in surface-mount designs?
No, the 1N755D-1 is packaged exclusively in the axial-leaded DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass case and is not available in surface-mount form. For SMT alternatives, consider Microsemi's MELF-packaged 1N755AUR-1 (same 7.5 V, ±5%), but note it lacks JANTXV qualification and 1% tolerance. The 1N755D-1 requires through-hole mounting with 0.375 inch lead length for thermal derating compliance.
What is the maximum operating temperature for the 1N755D-1?
The 1N755D-1 supports continuous operation from -65°C to +175°C, verified per MIL-PRF-19500/127. At +175°C, its power dissipation must be reduced to zero due to thermal derating, but its parametric stability - including Zener voltage and dynamic impedance - remains intact across the full range, enabling use in extreme-environment applications like downhole drilling electronics and jet engine control modules.
