Product details
Overview
1N758 from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 10.0 V ±5% silicon Zener diode in DO-35 (DO-204AH) glass axial-leaded package, qualified to JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, with dynamic impedance of 7 Ω at 20 mA and temperature coefficient of +0.076 %/°C - used for precision voltage regulation in military power supplies and analog reference circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N758 datasheet, 1N758 pinout, 1N758 application, or 1N758 equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, junction-to-lead thermal resistance (250 °C/W), reverse leakage current (≤1 µA at 7.0 V), maximum Zener current (40 mA), and RoHS compliance status on commercial variants.
Technical Context
The 1N758 operates as a two-terminal voltage reference device, conducting in reverse breakdown to maintain stable 10.0 V across its terminals over current (5–40 mA) and temperature (−65 to +175 °C) ranges. Its metallurgically bonded junction ensures low noise and radiation hardness per MicroNote 050.
It exhibits a positive temperature coefficient (+0.076 %/°C) above 5 V, enabling predictable drift compensation in temperature-stable references. The DO-35 package provides hermetic sealing and solderability per MIL-STD-750 method 2026, with cathode indicated by band.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage VZ | 10.0 V at IZT = 20 mA - defines nominal regulation point under standard test conditions |
| Zener Tolerance | ±5% - corresponds to A-suffix per nomenclature; yields 9.5–10.5 V range at 25 °C |
| Zener Impedance ZZT | 7 Ω at IZT = 20 mA - determines output voltage stability under load current variation |
| Max Reverse Current IR | ≤1 µA at VR = 7.0 V - ensures low leakage in standby or high-impedance bias networks |
| Power Dissipation | 0.5 W at TL = 50 °C (0.375″ lead length) - sets thermal design limit for lead-mounted operation |
| Temp Coefficient αVZ | +0.076 %/°C - quantifies voltage drift magnitude per degree rise above 25 °C |
| Junction Temp Range | −65 to +175 °C - supports operation in extended-environment military and aerospace systems |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package with tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating; cathode identified by colored band; weight ≈0.2 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener reference ground node | Connected to circuit common when used in reverse-biased regulation configuration |
| Cathode | Reverse breakdown terminal / regulated output node | Banded end; connected to regulated voltage rail; must be held positive relative to anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Metallurgical bond construction | Enables inherent radiation hardness (per MicroNote 050) and low-noise voltage reference performance |
| Low dynamic impedance | 7 Ω at 20 mA ensures <10 mV output shift per 1 mA load change in precision biasing applications |
| Minimal capacitance | Typical junction capacitance <2 pF - preserves high-frequency stability in RF bias and timing circuits |
| ESD robustness | Non-sensitive per MIL-STD-750 method 1020 - eliminates need for external ESD protection in handling |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4740A | 10 V ±5%, 1 W rating, DO-41 package, 17 Ω ZZT, −65 to +200 °C TJ | Higher power but larger footprint; less stable regulation due to higher ZZT | Select for cost-sensitive commercial designs needing higher dissipation; not suitable for JANTXV-requiring programs |
| MMBZ5240BLT1G | 10 V ±5%, 225 mW SOT-23, 20 Ω ZZT, −65 to +150 °C, RoHS only | Surface-mount, lower power, no military qualification; unsuitable for high-reliability through-hole layouts | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where MIL-spec is not required and reflow compatibility is critical |
Compared with 1N758, the 1N4740A offers higher power but looser regulation stability and no military screening, while the MMBZ5240BLT1G provides SMT compatibility at the expense of radiation hardness, thermal resistance, and qualification pedigree.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N758?
The 1N758 has a nominal Zener voltage of 10.0 V at 20 mA test current, with a ±5% tolerance per its "A" suffix designation. This yields a guaranteed regulation range of 9.5 V to 10.5 V at 25 °C. The 1N758 datasheet specifies this value under JEDEC-standard test conditions with 20-second stabilization time after current application.
Is the 1N758 qualified to military specifications?
Yes, the 1N758 is qualified to JANTXV level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, including full screening for vibration, thermal shock, and life testing. The "-1" suffix in 1N758A-1 confirms JANTXV qualification. Commercial RoHS versions exist but lack military screening and are marked without the "-1" suffix.
What is the maximum power dissipation for the 1N758?
The 1N758 has an average rated power dissipation of 0.5 W when leads are held at 50 °C (0.375″ from body), derating linearly to zero at 175 °C. When mounted on a PCB, it is rated for 0.4 W at 55 °C ambient, per Figure 2 in the T4-LDS-0288 datasheet. Thermal resistance is 250 °C/W junction-to-lead and 300 °C/W junction-to-ambient.
Does the 1N758 have a positive or negative temperature coefficient?
The 1N758 has a positive temperature coefficient of +0.076 %/°C at 25 °C, increasing to +0.076 %/°C at +150 °C. This characteristic is typical for Zener diodes above ~5 V and enables predictable voltage drift modeling in temperature-compensated reference designs.
What package type and marking does the 1N758 use?
The 1N758 uses the DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed axial-leaded glass package. It is marked with the full part number "1N758A-1", and polarity is indicated by a cathode band. Lead plating is tin-lead for military versions; RoHS-compliant matte-tin is available for commercial-grade units only.
