Product details
Overview
1N758A_T50A from Fairchild Semiconductor is a 10 V, 5% tolerance, 500 mW glass-encapsulated Zener diode in DO-35 package, rated for 35 mA maximum zener current at 25°C and 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 1 V, used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in low-power analog circuits.
For engineers reviewing the 1N758A_T50A datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include zener voltage accuracy (9.5–10.5 V), thermal derating (4.0 mW/°C above 75°C), junction temperature range (–65 to +200°C), and DO-35 mechanical compatibility with legacy through-hole designs.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse breakdown mode to maintain stable voltage across its terminals under varying load and input conditions. Its 10 V nominal zener voltage is specified at 20 mA test current with 17 Ω dynamic impedance, enabling predictable regulation in feedback paths and reference nodes.
The device features a glass-passivated DO-35 package with cathode band marking, supports operation up to +200°C storage temperature, and exhibits only 0.1 µA reverse leakage at 1 V - critical for low-quiescent-current bias networks and battery-powered sensor interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Zener Voltage (VZ) | 9.5–10.5 V @ IZ = 20 mA; defines stable regulation point for reference or clamp applications |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | 17 Ω @ IZ = 20 mA; determines output voltage variation under load changes |
| Max Zener Current (IZM) | 35 mA @ TL ≤ 75°C; sets absolute DC current limit before thermal runaway |
| Power Dissipation (PD) | 500 mW @ TL ≤ 75°C; defines safe operating envelope with linear derating above 75°C |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | 0.1 µA @ VR = 1 V; ensures minimal error current in high-impedance reference dividers |
| Operating Temp Range | –65°C to +200°C; enables use in automotive under-hood, industrial, and aerospace environments |
| Tolerance | ±5%; guarantees voltage accuracy without post-manufacture trimming |
Pinout & Package
DO-35 glass axial package with cathode indicated by a single color band on the body; leads are tinned copper, 3/8″ length standard for thermal testing per JEDEC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal / Zener breakdown reference node | Connected to lower potential side; forms regulated voltage drop when cathode is biased positive |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal / voltage reference output | Marked with band; connected to higher potential side to enable reverse-biased regulation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Stable 10 V reference | Guaranteed 9.5–10.5 V range at 20 mA enables direct replacement in legacy 10 V regulator designs |
| Low dynamic impedance | 17 Ω ensures <17 mV output shift per 1 mA load change - suitable for precision analog feedback |
| High-temperature capability | –65°C to +200°C operation supports under-hood automotive and downhole industrial use |
| Low leakage current | 0.1 µA at 1 V minimizes error in high-Z voltage dividers and battery-monitoring circuits |
| Standard DO-35 footprint | Enables drop-in replacement in existing through-hole PCB layouts without rework |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4740A (ON Semiconductor) | 10 V nominal, ±5%, 1000 mW, DO-41 package, 17 Ω ZZ, 23 mA IZM at 25°C | Higher power rating but larger DO-41 footprint; requires PCB layout change | Select when higher surge energy handling is required and board space permits larger package |
| BZX55C10 (Vishay) | 10 V nominal, ±5%, 500 mW, DO-35 package, 20 Ω ZZ, 34 mA IZM, 0.1 µA IR | Nearly identical electrical specs and DO-35 mechanical form; minor ZZ variance | Preferred for new designs requiring second-source availability with same footprint and performance |
Compared with 1N758A_T50A, the 1N4740A offers double power dissipation but demands DO-41 layout revision, while the BZX55C10 delivers functionally identical regulation in the same DO-35 package - making it the most seamless alternative for continuity and dual-sourcing.

FAQ
What is the exact zener voltage range for 1N758A_T50A at 20 mA?
The 1N758A_T50A has a guaranteed zener voltage range of 9.5 V to 10.5 V when tested at 20 mA and 25°C ambient, reflecting its ±5% tolerance specification. This range is validated per Fairchild's Rev. D1 datasheet and applies directly to the 1N758A_T50A marking variant with DO-35 packaging and glass encapsulation.
Does 1N758A_T50A support operation above 125°C?
Yes, the 1N758A_T50A is rated for junction and storage temperatures from –65°C to +200°C. Its electrical characteristics remain valid across this full range, and power dissipation must be linearly derated at 4.0 mW/°C above 75°C ambient - allowing reliable use in under-hood automotive or industrial furnace monitoring where ambient exceeds 125°C.
Is the 1N758A_T50A pin-compatible with other DO-35 Zeners like 1N4740A?
No - while both 1N758A_T50A and 1N4740A are axial Zeners, they differ in package: 1N758A_T50A uses DO-35 (2.0 × 5.2 mm), whereas 1N4740A uses DO-41 (2.7 × 5.2 mm). Mechanical incompatibility prevents direct PCB substitution without layout modification, despite similar 10 V regulation.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for 1N758A_T50A?
The maximum reverse leakage current for 1N758A_T50A is 0.1 µA at VR = 1 V and TA = 25°C, as specified in Fairchild's official datasheet. This low leakage ensures minimal loading in high-impedance reference networks and contributes to stable biasing in battery-powered sensor circuits using the 1N758A_T50A.
Can 1N758A_T50A be used in surface-mount designs?
No - the 1N758A_T50A is exclusively available in the through-hole DO-35 glass axial package. It lacks SMD variants such as SOD-123 or SOD-323. For surface-mount equivalents, designers should consider alternatives like BZX84-C10 or MMBZ5240B, which are not functionally or mechanically interchangeable with the 1N758A_T50A.
