This 1N4740A Zener diode is another form of diode that comes in a Through-hole package. Zener diode will mostly be used in a protection circuit or a crude voltage regulator circuit. Either way, it is 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.
