Product details
Overview
1N757A/TR from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 9.1 V ±5% axial-leaded Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass package, qualified to JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, with dynamic impedance of 6 Ω at 20 mA and temperature coefficient of +0.068 %/°C, used for precision voltage regulation in power supply reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N757A/TR datasheet, 1N757A/TR pinout, 1N757A/TR application, or 1N757A/TR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, military-grade qualification status, thermal derating behavior, RoHS-compliant commercial availability, and direct alternative part comparisons for stable BOM design.
Technical Context
The 1N757A/TR operates as a reverse-biased silicon Zener regulator with nominal breakdown voltage of 9.1 V at 20 mA test current (IZT), exhibiting low dynamic impedance (6 Ω) and positive temperature coefficient (+0.068 %/°C) above 5 V, enabling stable reference generation across -65°C to +175°C ambient range.
Its hermetically sealed DO-35 glass package features internal metallurgical bonding, tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating, cathode band polarity marking, and is rated for 0.5 W average power dissipation at 50°C lead temperature - derating linearly to zero at 175°C.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4739A | 9.1 V ±5%, 1 W rating, DO-41 package, 10 Ω Zzt - higher power but larger footprint | Used in commercial power supplies where 1 W dissipation is required | Select when higher power margin or standard DO-41 board compatibility is needed |
| BZX55C9V1 | 9.1 V ±5%, 500 mW, DO-35, 10 Ω Zzt - same package but commercial-only, no MIL qual | Used in cost-sensitive industrial controls without military screening | Select when RoHS compliance and commercial qualification suffice, and MIL screening is unnecessary |
Compared with 1N757A/TR, 1N4739A offers higher power handling in a different package, while BZX55C9V1 provides identical voltage and package but lacks JANTX qualification - making 1N757A/TR the only option for temperature-stable, screened military reference designs.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of the 1N757A/TR?
The 1N757A/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 9.1 V with a tolerance of ±5%, as indicated by the "A" suffix in its nomenclature per JEDEC standards. This tolerance applies at the specified test current of 20 mA and ambient temperature of 25°C. The 1N757A/TR does not offer tighter 1% or 2% tolerances - those are available only in other variants like 1N757C/TR or 1N757D/TR.
Is the 1N757A/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N757A/TR is RoHS compliant. The "TR" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, and per Microsemi documentation, RoHS-compliant versions are available for commercial-grade parts. The plating is annealed matte-tin, meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements, though JANTX-level screening remains applicable only to non-RoHS configurations unless explicitly ordered as RoHS-qualified JANTX.
What is the maximum power dissipation for the 1N757A/TR?
The 1N757A/TR has an average rated power dissipation of 0.5 W at a lead temperature (TL) of +50°C with 0.375 inch lead length from the body. Power derates linearly to zero at +175°C. When mounted on a PCB, it is rated for 0.4 W at +55°C ambient, derating to zero at +175°C - values confirmed in the T4-LDS-0288 datasheet Figure 2.
Does the 1N757A/TR have JANTX qualification?
Yes, the 1N757A/TR is qualified to JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/127. The "A" suffix denotes ±5% tolerance, and JANTX qualification includes rigorous screening including temperature cycling, steady-state life test, and lot acceptance testing. Full qualification data is documented in Microsemi's QPL listing and T4-LDS-0288 specification sheet.
What is the cathode identification method on the 1N757A/TR?
The cathode of the 1N757A/TR is identified by a visible color band on the glass DO-35 body. During Zener regulation, the banded end must be held at a higher potential than the non-banded (anode) end. This polarity marking is consistent across all 1N7xxA series devices and is verified in the Mechanical and Packaging section of the T4-LDS-0288 datasheet.
