7.5 V Zener diode is a semiconductor diode designed to operate in the reverse breakdown region and maintain a nearly constant voltage of 7.5 volts across its terminals.
7.5 V Zener diode
Type: Zener voltage regulator diode
Nominal Zener voltage (Vz): 7.5 V
Tolerance: Usually ±5% (some are ±2%)
Forward voltage (Vf): about 0.7–1.0 V
Maximum power rating: Common types:
500 mW (0.5 W) – small signal type
1 W / 5 W – higher power types
Maximum Zener current (Iz):
Depends on watt rating
Example: 0.5 W ÷ 7.5 V ≈ 66 mA
Package types:
DO-35 (small glass)
DO-41 (common through-hole)
