This 1N4740A Zener diode is another form of diode which comes in Through-hole package. Zener diode will mostly be used in a protection circuit or in a crude voltage regulator circuit. Either way, it very important to remember that a Zener diode should always be used along with a Zener resistor. The 1N4740A 10V Zener Diode has a nominal voltage of 10V and like other types of Zener diodes, it can be used as a reference element in voltage regulation, and it can also be used in switching applications and clipper circuits.
Equivalent to the 1N4740A 10V zener diode, other zener diodes including the 10V zener, 9.1 zener, 8.2 zener, 7.5 zener and 6.8 zener can be found from the website.
