Product details
Overview
1N757A_T50A from Fairchild Semiconductor is a 9.1 V ±5% silicon Zener diode in DO-35 glass package, rated for 500 mW power dissipation at TL ≤ 75°C, with 10 Ω dynamic impedance at 20 mA test current and 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 1 V, used for precision voltage regulation in low-power analog reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N757A_T50A 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 reference diode relying on controlled reverse-biased avalanche breakdown. Its 9.1 V nominal zener voltage is specified at 20 mA test current with ±5% tolerance, and its 10 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZ) reflects low voltage variation under load changes.
Thermal performance is defined by a 4.0 mW/°C derating slope above 75°C lead temperature, and it supports operation across -65°C to +200°C junction/storage range. The DO-35 package uses a visible cathode band for unambiguous polarity identification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 9.1 V nominal at IZ = 20 mA; ensures stable reference point for biasing or clamping within ±5% tolerance. |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 10 Ω max at IZ = 20 mA; limits output voltage shift under varying load current. |
| Max Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW at TL ≤ 75°C; defines safe continuous DC power handling before thermal derating applies. |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA max at VR = 1 V; confirms minimal parasitic conduction in sub-breakdown region. |
| Operating Temp Range | -65°C to +200°C; supports deployment in automotive under-hood, industrial control, and aerospace environments. |
| Tolerance | ±5%; enables predictable circuit margining without post-production trimming. |
| Package | DO-35 glass axial; provides hermetic sealing, standard lead spacing (3/8″), and cathode band polarity marking. |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 glass axial package with cathode identified by a single color band on the body; leads are unmarked anode/cathode terminals suitable for through-hole mounting. Mechanical dimensions conform to JEDEC DO-35 standard.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Reference ground node | Connected to circuit common when used in reverse-bias regulation; carries forward current up to 200 mA (VF ≤ 1.5 V). |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / Regulated output node | Marked with color band; supplies stable 9.1 V relative to anode when reverse-biased above breakdown threshold. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Stable Zener voltage | 9.1 V ±5% at 20 mA ensures repeatable reference accuracy without calibration. |
| Low dynamic impedance | 10 Ω max minimizes output voltage drift across load current variations in feedback networks. |
| Hermetic DO-35 package | Glass-sealed construction guarantees long-term parameter stability in humid or corrosive environments. |
| Wide temperature range | -65°C to +200°C operation supports reliability-critical applications beyond commercial grade. |
| Cathode polarity marking | Visible band eliminates orientation errors during manual or automated assembly. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4739A | 9.1 V ±5%, 1 W rating, DO-41 package, 10 Ω ZZ, but higher PD and larger footprint. | Suitable for higher-power regulation where thermal mass improves stability; not DO-35 drop-in. | Select when board layout allows DO-41 and >500 mW dissipation is required. |
| BZX55-C9V1 | 9.1 V ±5%, 500 mW, DO-35, 10 Ω ZZ, but tighter IR spec (≤0.1 µA @ 1 V same), RoHS-compliant. | Direct form-fit replacement with identical mechanical and electrical specs; preferred for new designs requiring compliance. | Choose for RoHS-constrained production or when sourcing legacy Fairchild stock is limited. |
Compared with 1N757A_T50A, 1N4739A offers higher power headroom at the cost of larger package and different thermal profile, while BZX55-C9V1 delivers identical regulation performance with modern environmental compliance and guaranteed availability.

FAQ
What is the nominal zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N757A_T50A?
The 1N757A_T50A has a nominal zener voltage of 9.1 V with a ±5% tolerance, measured at 20 mA test current and 25°C ambient. This means the actual VZ falls between 8.65 V and 9.56 V under specified conditions, enabling predictable circuit design without post-manufacture adjustment.
What package type and polarity marking does the 1N757A_T50A use?
The 1N757A_T50A is housed in a DO-35 glass axial package with a visible cathode band on the body. The banded end is the cathode; the unmarked end is the anode. This marking complies with JEDEC standards and ensures correct orientation during manual or automated placement.
What is the maximum power dissipation and thermal derating behavior of the 1N757A_T50A?
The 1N757A_T50A is rated for 500 mW power dissipation at lead temperature (TL) ≤ 75°C. Above that temperature, power must be reduced at 4.0 mW/°C. At TL = 125°C, maximum allowable power drops to 300 mW, ensuring safe operation under elevated thermal stress.
How does the 1N757A_T50A perform in terms of reverse leakage current?
The 1N757A_T50A exhibits ≤0.1 µA reverse leakage current at 1 V reverse voltage and 25°C. This low leakage ensures minimal parasitic current draw in standby or high-impedance reference nodes, preserving battery life and measurement accuracy in precision analog circuits.
Is the 1N757A_T50A suitable for automotive under-hood applications?
Yes - the 1N757A_T50A supports an operating temperature range of -65°C to +200°C and is built in a hermetically sealed DO-35 glass package. These characteristics meet requirements for under-hood engine control modules, transmission sensors, and other automotive subsystems exposed to extreme thermal cycling.
