Product details
Overview
1N757A_T50R from Fairchild Semiconductor is a 5.6 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 and 40 mA maximum zener current (IZM) at 25°C, used for precision voltage regulation in low-power analog reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N757A_T50R datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include zener voltage tolerance (±5%), thermal derating slope (4.0 mW/°C above 75°C), cathode-band polarity marking, and DO-35 mechanical compatibility with through-hole PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The 1N757A_T50R operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device, maintaining stable reverse-biased breakdown at nominal 5.6 V with 10 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZ) measured at IZ = 20 mA. Its junction temperature range spans −65°C to +200°C, and leakage current is limited to 0.1 µA at VR = 1 V.
Power handling follows a linear derating curve: full 500 mW up to 75°C lead temperature, then reduced by 4.0 mW per °C rise. The DO-35 glass package features a visible cathode band and 3/8″ lead length specification for thermal measurement compliance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| VZ @ IZ = 20 mA | 5.6 V nominal, min 5.32 V / max 5.88 V - defines regulated output voltage under standard test condition |
| ZZ @ IZ = 20 mA | 10 Ω - indicates small-signal AC resistance affecting regulation stability under varying load |
| IZM @ 25°C | 40 mA - maximum continuous DC zener current before thermal runaway risk at ambient temperature |
| PD @ TL ≤ 75°C | 500 mW - absolute maximum power dissipation with specified lead length and mounting condition |
| IR @ VR = 1 V | 0.1 µA - reverse leakage magnitude confirming low-noise performance in high-impedance bias networks |
| Tolerance | ±5% - specifies allowable deviation of VZ from nominal value across production lot |
| Package | DO-35 - axial glass-body package with cathode band, standardized for manual and wave soldering |

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) | Same 5.6 V nominal VZ, ±5% tolerance, but 15 Ω ZZ and 1 W PD rating in DO-41 package | Higher power handling suits higher-current shunt regulation; larger DO-41 footprint requires layout change | Select when >500 mW dissipation or board space permits DO-41 |
| BZX55-C5V6 (Vishay) | 5.6 V ±5%, 10 Ω ZZ, 500 mW PD, but in DO-35 with tighter IR spec (≤0.1 µA @ 1 V same), different marking | Identical electrical specs and package; qualified to AEC-Q200 for automotive use | Prefer for automotive-grade designs requiring stress-tested qualification |
Compared with 1N757A_T50R, the 1N4734A offers higher power margin but requires PCB rework, while the BZX55-C5V6 delivers identical regulation performance with automotive qualification-making it a drop-in alternative only where AEC-Q200 compliance is mandated.

FAQ
What is the nominal zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N757A_T50R?
The 1N757A_T50R has a nominal zener voltage of 5.6 V with a tolerance of ±5%, meaning the actual VZ falls between 5.32 V and 5.88 V when measured at IZ = 20 mA and TA = 25°C. This tolerance is guaranteed across production lots and is critical for designing accurate reference and clamp circuits using the 1N757A_T50R.
What is the maximum power dissipation and thermal derating behavior of the 1N757A_T50R?
The 1N757A_T50R is rated for 500 mW power dissipation at lead temperature (TL) ≤ 75°C with 3/8″ lead length. Above 75°C, power must be linearly derated at 4.0 mW/°C. This derating ensures safe operation up to +200°C junction temperature and directly impacts heatsinking requirements in the 1N757A_T50R design.
How is the cathode identified on the 1N757A_T50R package?
The cathode of the 1N757A_T50R is marked by a single painted band on the DO-35 glass body. Per Fairchild Rev. D1 marking specification, this band aligns with the "A" in the third-line top mark "57A", confirming polarity for correct reverse-bias connection in all 1N757A_T50R implementations.
What is the dynamic impedance (ZZ) of the 1N757A_T50R and why does it matter?
The 1N757A_T50R exhibits 10 Ω dynamic impedance (ZZ) measured at IZ = 20 mA. This value quantifies how much the zener voltage changes with small variations in current - lower ZZ improves regulation accuracy under load transients, making the 1N757A_T50R suitable for stable reference generation in sensitive analog circuits.
Is the 1N757A_T50R suitable for high-temperature environments?
Yes, the 1N757A_T50R supports an operating junction temperature range of −65°C to +200°C. Its DO-35 glass package and silicon die construction maintain parameter stability across this range, enabling reliable use in under-hood automotive, industrial motor controls, and downhole instrumentation where the 1N757A_T50R must function without derating at elevated ambient temperatures.
